Are you trying to decide between a ‘Your Story’ photography session or a Mini Session? If you’re looking for photography with a difference—something more meaningful than standard family portraits—you’re in the right place. These sessions are all about capturing candid, authentic moments that showcase who you really are. Whether you want a relaxed, storytelling experience or a quick and simple session, this guide will help you choose the perfect way to preserve your memories with genuine, heartfelt portraits.
It can feel like a tough choice, but really, it comes down to time and what you’re hoping to capture. Let’s break it down.
The ‘Your Story’ Session (1.5 hours)
This is for you if:
- You’re camera shy and need time to ease into the shoot.
- You want a relaxed pace without feeling rushed.
- You want to capture the essence of today—who you are, who your kids are, in a place that means something to you.
- You’d love to shoot in more than one location.
- You’ve got a big family or a larger group to include.
Here’s the thing: my passion and strength lie in documentary photography. I’m not about stiff poses or forced smiles. I love capturing those in-between, real moments—the ones that show true personalities, the little mannerisms, the laughs and connections that only happen when you’re comfortable and lost in the moment. With more time, we can create those photos that feel like you.
The Mini Session (45 minutes)
This one’s short and sweet. It’s perfect for:
- Families or small groups who want to keep it simple.
- Pets (yes, bring them!).
- People who feel comfortable diving straight in—we’ll get right to it the moment I arrive.
Mini sessions move quickly, but don’t worry—I’ll still find those beautiful, meaningful shots. They’re ideal when you want a handful of great photos without a big time commitment.
What’s Included?
No matter which session you choose, I believe in capturing moments somewhere you love. Why?
Because when you’re in a place that’s familiar and meaningful, you’re instantly more at ease. And when you look back at these photos, I want you to feel more than “that’s a nice picture.” I want you to remember that place, that year, that stage of life—the way your kid adored unicorns (before they inevitably swapped them for heavy metal and black eyeliner 😆).
Because this moment is important. And it deserves to be captured.
The ‘Your Story’ Session
- 1.5 hours
- 20 high/low-resolution images of your choosing
- Perfect for creating a relaxed, meaningful story
The Mini Session
- 45 minutes
- 10 high/low-resolution images of your choosing
- Ideal for quick, simple, yet beautiful photos
Both sessions include the option to upgrade—you can purchase additional images or all final files if you’d like. Fine art prints are also available for purchase.
Here’s the thing:
You’ll never regret being in the photos, capturing your story as it is right now. But you might regret putting it off.
Don’t live with regrets. Let’s create something meaningful together. 💛
