Are you in the process of planning a photoshoot, but you’re not sure whether to go for a mini session or a full session? The decision between the two can be overwhelming, but fear not; I got you!!
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, capturing family moments, or simply updating your family photo wall, the choice between a mini session and a full session can impact the outcome of your photoshoot.
Lets start with mini sessions
A whirlwind of fun packed into fifteen to twenty minutes. These sessions are like lightning rounds of photography, designed for families on the go. Mini sessions are arranged by me for a designated date, and take place at a single location selected by me. These sessions are tightly scheduled, back-to-back, ensuring maximum efficiency for everyone, with the set date, location, and times optimized for convenience.
- They're affordable Mini sessions are the most affordable way to get to know me and my photography style, while still walking away with high-quality STUNNING IMAGES! Mini sessions cost a fraction of the price of a full session. Although I include 10 images with my mini session packages, there is always the option to purchase more when you fall in love with your full gallery! No matter how many images you choose, you always have full access to my print shop directly from your gallery!
- Time availability
How much time do you have? Is your schedule busy? Can you only fit photos into a short window of time? Or do you have a more flexible schedule?
- They deliver! Are you looking for the perfect photos for your family card? Are you updating your prints at home? Do you need new headshots for your business? Do you want cute back-to-school photos of your children? Most of my mini sessions come with 10 images, but I usually end up capturing way more! which means you get to pick more images if you like!
Full session
These sessions offer a deeper dive into your family's story. We work together to find the perfect spot to bring your vision to life. Full sessions offer versatility in location, whether it's amidst the vibrant bustle of downtown, the beauty of a park, or the personal setting of your own home for a cozy lifestyle session. Additionally, they provide the opportunity to capture family traditions, such as baking cookies or enjoying a fun pizza night together
- Immersive and personalized
Allows for a more relaxed pace, perfect for capturing candid moments and family dynamics.
Full sessions offer a comprehensive and personalized photography experience. Full sessions are the way to go if you're looking for a complete and detailed documentation of your story. The extended duration of full sessions creates a relaxed and unhurried experience, allowing you to feel at ease. Whether you have a favorite park, garden, or urban setting in mind, this personalized touch adds an extra layer of significance to your photos.
- Flexibility and Customization
With more time available, full sessions allow for greater flexibility in choosing locations, outfit changes, and themes. This customization ensures that the photos reflect your unique personality and story.
- Variety and Creativity
The longer duration of full sessions allows for exploring multiple poses, settings, and backdrops, providing a wider variety of photographs to choose from. If you have a shy child this type of session might give them enough time to warm up to your photographer. Provides a variety of images, from classic poses to authentic candid shots.
Choosing Your Perfect Session
Ultimately, whether you opt for a mini session or a full session depends on your family's preferences and needs (and my current mini offerings!). If you're after quick, timeless portraits for your wall or cards a mini session may be just the ticket. But if you crave a deeper dive into your family's story, complete with candid moments and cherished memories, a full session might be more your speed.
Whichever you choose, know that I'm here to capture those special moments with warmth, professionalism, and a loads of fun!
