2024 Fall Mini Sessions

Announcing Our Annual Fall Mini Sessions!

Hello, lovely families! 🍂 Fall is here! Once again this year I’ve received lots of emails asking about my annual fall mini sessions. I’m so happy that so many families return year after year, and that this has become a holiday tradition for so many!

I’m thrilled to announce my annual Fall Mini Sessions! These sessions are designed to capture the love, laughter, and unique personalities that make your family special.

Why Choose a Mini Session?

Mini sessions are a wonderful opportunity to have beautiful family portraits without the time commitment of a full session. They’re perfect for busy families who want to capture updated photos of their little ones, and grab a few great images for their holiday cards!

What to Expect

Each mini session lasts 15 minutes, giving us just the right amount of time to create a variety of beautiful images. We’ll likely start with the classic family portrait and then add in some candid moments as well so that you’ll have a keepsake of your little one’s sweet personality and what they were up to this year. Kiddos change so much year by year…it’s just so precious to have a visual record every year as they grow! As always, you’ll receive a selection of high-resolution digital images to cherish and share.

This Year’s Locations

I’m excited to announce that this year’s fall mini sessions will be held at three stunning locations:

Saturday, October 12th afternoon sessions at the beach! These will be late afternoon/golden hour sunset sessions at my favorite beach near Camarillo. Only a few time slots will be offered so that every session will have pretty, golden light.

Saturday, November 2nd in a beautiful open field near Newbury Park. These will be late afternoon/golden hour sessions. This location sold out within minutes last year, so don’t delay if you’d like a golden field session.

Saturday, November 9th at Peter Strauss Ranch in Agoura Hills. Peter Strauss Ranch has a pretty meadow, easy trails, and beautiful trees that turn golden in the fall! These will also be golden light late afternoon timeslots.


The Details

Priced at $525, fall mini sessions are 15 minutes long and include 15-20 edited, high resolution digital negatives delivered via download complete with printing instructions and lab recommendations!

Your images will also be uploaded directly to Minted. Minted is my favorite stationary company with hundreds of holiday card designs to choose from….you’re sure to find one that you love! They also print on the best paper (in my opinion!). All you’ll have to do is pop your images into your selected card design, customize the card with your family’s info, and choose your favorite colors. It’s super simple, and you’ll have a holiday ‘to-do’ checked off of your list!

Please note:

Fall mini sessions are for immediate families with up to five members. Larger families will need to book a full session. Please contact me to do so!
