HOLIDAY photo mini sessions

Join me for a holiday mini photo session!

I am thrilled to share that this year I will be doing 2 days of holiday mini sessions! I have a beautiful backdrop planned (see below) and will be reserving 30 minute time slots per family. I can comfortably fit 2 adults and 1-3 kids in my studio. If you would like more people to join, please get in touch with me separately so we can discuss options. I have a total of 16 spots available, and scheduling can be done via the link below. You will receive a $50 credit towards prints and holiday cards in my online storefront.

ABOUT THE SESSION

When: Saturday November 15, 2025 and Sunday November 16, 2025

Where: 631 St. Charles Ave. New Orleans, LA 70130

Time Slots: 30 minutes, 10am-5pm

Price: $350 (includes a $50 store print credit). A $150 non-refundable deposit is required to book the session. (BOOK HERE)

Who should book: Couples and Families. This is a holiday setup and can accommodate up to 2 adults and 1-3 children.

What you will receive: 30 minutes of shooting time in my studio, approximately 15-20 edited images suitable for social media and prints up to 5”x7”, and a $50 credit to my online store to order prints and holiday cards.

What you won’t receive: A print or copyright release. Please order all of your cards and prints through my storefront. It is a printer that I trust and turnaround is fast. You may opt to purchase a high resolution download and print release of individual photos for $50 each or all of your images for $250.

How the session works: We have 30 minutes to shoot as many portrait variations as you’d like on the backdrop I have provided. You can shoot a family group shot, the kids by themselves, or anything else that you might like to do within the allotted amount of time.

FAQs

What happens if we have to reschedule? Unfortunately, these sessions will only be offered for 2 days in November. You can reschedule for another time slot, depending on availability.

If I cancel, do I get a refund? Once you book a date and time slot, you are obligated to make your appointment. If you have to cancel for any reason, you will forfeit your deposit.

Will you be offering any more dates besides the 15th and 16th? If these dates fill up, then I will consider adding a third date. You will have to stay tuned for updates!

I am scared my kids won’t cooperate. What if we can’t get a good photo of them in 30 minutes? We’ve all been there: The kids are over stimulated and the pressure is on to get a great shot of them. I will do everything in my power to make sure we get at least one great shot. Please consider their nap times, etc. when booking. I will follow up before your shoot with helpful tips on getting little ones ready for a shoot. And just to note, 30 minutes is more time than you think—anything longer and the kids start to get fatigued. If everyone comes prepared then it is a perfect amount of time for some great family photos.

What should we wear? I’ve selected a neutral pallet for the background so families can coordinate outfits to their liking. Some advice would be to stay cohesive—make sure each person has a matching color or pattern. You can dress up or down but don’t let one person be in a dress while another is just in jeans. I suggest picking one theme and sticking to it.

We want to make holiday cards. How can we do that? I have a print store that will be linked to your online gallery. There, you can design your holiday cards seamlessly and effortlessly. Feel free to use the $50 print credit however you wish.

Do you offer retouching? The photos I deliver will be lightly retouched and edited for color. Any additional retouching will be priced at $25 per image.

When will we receive our photos? Photos will be delivered within 5 business days via online gallery. You can download your images for personal use and purchase prints and holiday cards directly from your gallery.

What if we are running late? Please try to be prompt to your session. I can only guarantee time to photograph you during the time you have reserved. I recommend arriving 10-15 minutes early. Please see the backdrop I've selected via my website.
