The session will take place at the location specified in the booking.
However, the exact location and nearest parking area, will be provided to you via email after you have booked and closer to the session date.
We recommend wearing comfortable, weather-appropriate attire that suits the theme or season of the session. You're welcome to get creative, whether it's coordinating outfits for a family session or dressing to match the season's colors.
This will depend on the specific Minis Session that you have booked.
Please be sure to check the details on our booking catalogue webpage for more information on the specific session.
We understand that you're eager to see your beautiful photos! Generally, your edited images will be ready for viewing and downloading within 2-3 weeks after the Mini Session. We'll notify you via email once they're available.

Due to the nature of the mini-session schedule, mini-sessions are non-refundable and cannot be cancelled for any reason. If you cannot make your session slot, you are welcome to give or "sell" your session to a friend or family member. Alternatively, as a last resort, your $139 session fee can be applied to a future portrait session booking. However, please note that portrait sessions start at $690 and pricing is subject to change.
Unfortunately, Mini Sessions do not offer flexibility. We kindly ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled start time to ensure we can start promptly. If you happen to be running late, we will make the most of the time allocated for your session. However, please understand that we may not be able to extend the session beyond its designated time out of consideration for the next client's schedule.
This varies based on location of the shoot. Please see the specific session details for more information.
Pricing for Mini Sessions starts at $139. Specific rates may vary depending on the theme and location of the session. Be sure to check the details for each session on our booking catalogue website for accurate pricing information.
