Fall time is the most popular time of year for families to have their yearly pictures taken. The weather is mild, the fall colors are in full swing, and it is the perfect opportunity for families to get their updated pictures with their loved ones before the craze of the holiday season that follows. Family photography sessions are a big investment! You can definitely get a ton of value from your investment, but not everyone wants a big family package. That is why my "Fall Family Mini Sessions" are such a big hit! It allows any family to get professional photos with their loved ones for a fraction of the cost. In this post, I will go over:

What Fall Family Mini Sessions Are All About
Once a year, I offer Fall Family Mini Sessions on a Saturday in October (see section 4 for this years date). All the mini's will take place on the same day, back to back. The time slots are 15 minutes (it doesn't seem like a lot of time, but section 2 has more on how this works very well). These sessions are very limited. I only accept 12 total mini sessions in a single day, and I typically only schedule one day. I always give my email subscriber list a 24 hour exclusive opportunity to book their spot before I announce them publicly. If you aren't subscribed to my email list, you can do so by clicking here. If you're looking for beautiful family pictures, or know someone who is, I highly recommend subscribing to the email list and watching for when I start taking bookings. I always send a "heads up" email before I give my subscribers 24 hour exclusive access so you can feel well prepared to take action. Fall Family Mini's will take place at a beautiful park in the south metro, most likely in the Lakeville area. So if you think Fall Family Mini's are for you, let me tell you more!
What You Can Expect From Your Experience
Only 15 minutes?? Crazy you might think, but it's not, I promise! (check out client testimonials below). In just 15 minutes, I can capture a gorgeous gallery of images for you and your family. The key to this, is just excellent preparation! By putting everything into place ahead of time, we can utilize every minute of your mini session to create some family magic. All the images you see in this post were done in a just 15 minutes. Yep!! 3 kiddos, Mom & Dad, and plenty of time to spare for a few extra fun shots! How is this possible?? Well, it's done by my own preparation, and helping all my families prepare as well. Let me tell you what I am talking about. When you claim your session spot with me (signed contract & 50% retainer to reserve your time), you will automatically be delivered a series of important emails. You can expect to be sent a personalized questionnaire that will give you a place to answer a few questions and add some specific shots you might be hoping for, as well as address any special circumstances you want me to know about your family. This alone helps me to get to know you a little bit before we meet, and allows you to feel totally comfortable that I have all the information I need before you get to your session. You will also receive detailed instructions about where to go, how to get there, and how to find me on session day. This will also include a reminder of your time slot and other important details. Finally, you will get a "Client Experience Guide" that goes over styling tips for the whole family, things to expect, secrets for getting your kids to cooperate (bribes, snacks, etc.), and more! This all helps you prepare for session day so all you have to worry about is showing up, smiling big, and having a beautiful experience. I won't bore you with the details of how I prepare, but know that I am scouting the area, keeping everyone updated, and juggling lots of variables, so you don't have to! All of this makes it possible to get you your dream family gallery in just 15 minutes or less. After your time with me, you can expect your fully edited gallery back within 2 weeks of your session day so you can start sharing and printing your pictures. Now, let's see what past clients from these mini sessions are saying!
