seasonal offerings

Summer may be waning, but the shift in season often means exciting things are happening behind the scenes.

Let’s capture it with captivating, story-driven visuals.

Seasonal mini photo sessions are short, focused photoshoots designed to give you high-quality, intentional imagery in a more efficient format. These offerings are perfect for creatives, small business owners, and those with a full schedule, or simply looking to showcase their visuals in a thoughtful way with budget in mind. Sessions take place at the client’s studio/place of business or a select location on a select date and are styled for efficiency and ease. Together, we’ll create a curated collection of beautiful, usable images—whether you're updating your website, launching a new product, or simply refreshing your brand presence. Quick, approachable, and always thoughtfully crafted, mini photo sessions are an accessible tool to help enhance your visual impact in a big way. Because you deserve imagery that reflects who you are and the heart and soul you pour into your craft—and I want to help you do just that.

Mini Sessions Window: August 12 — September 11

Mini sessions are treated similarly to a regular shoot in that I still want to get to know you, your brand, and your message! We’ll have conversation beforehand to determine shoot goals, share ideas, and fully prepare, so that come shoot day, we can work as efficiently and effectively as possible without sacrificing attention-to-detail and creativity. A $60 deposit is required at time of booking (remaining amount due at time of image delivery).

Still not sure if a mini session is right for you? I’d love to have a conversation with you to help you get more clarity on the process, and help determine if it feels like a good fit.
