Hello, my loves! I’m excited to kick off 2024 with some themed Valentine’s Day Studio Mini Sessions in Pasadena, California. The date will be Saturday, February 3.
Mini sessions are wonderful for those seeking a handful of updated yearly photos. They are open to individuals, couples, and families no more than 4 total individuals for these valentine’s minis are in a small studio space. Only one adult may be present for a “mommy + me” session with a child or children, for this date.
Minis are right for families and children who are quick to “warm up” at a photoshoot, and may not be the best fit for children on the shyer or more anxious side in new situations. Full hour sessions are also available for booking at any time, for families or couples who wish to have more time and to schedule their session for a location and date of their choice, with the option for more individuals as well.
HOW TO SIGN UP: Complete the form linked here, and check your email inbox minutes later to complete the booking process!
If you want to peek at what time slots are available, use this link, but please don’t sign up here. Go to the above first link to start the signup process.
Please remember, not everything can be accomplished in 20 minutes time, but together we are still able to create so many beautiful images that you’d be shocked and wowed, and that’s exactly what I aim to do! 😉 I like to offer these abbreviated sessions as a convenience for those who want “just a few” updated family photos to close out the year’s memories with. Mini Sessions are typically only offered in the Spring and in the Fall.
If you’re interested in a more customized photo session experience, please contact me using the contact form on my website here about scheduling a full hour (or longer) session to yourself. Locations and dates are of your choosing for these full sessions. And as much as I love running Mini Sessions, I just love having your family all to myself for a whole hour of creativity, more!
