ChristmaS Mini Sessions
What is a Christmas Mini Session?
Mini sessions are usually shorter than regular photo sessions, lasting around 15-30 minutes, and are booked back-to-back with other clients. Sessions are held at a designated location with holiday-themed backdrops, props, and decorations.
These sessions are heavily discounted while still delivering high-quality holiday photos, perfect for Christmas cards, gifts, or great for sharing on social's.
All babies must be held by either an adult or child if they cannot sit unaided, not suitable for newborns.
Only happens once a year!

Here are some suggestions for both backdrops:
1. Light, Cream, Luxury Backdrop:
This backdrop has a soft, elegant feel, so your outfits should enhance that luxurious, sophisticated vibe.
-
Colors: Neutral tones like cream, white, beige, blush, soft gold, and light pastels work beautifully.
Styles: Think classy, elegant outfits.
For women, flowy dresses, elegant blouses, or even soft knits work well.
For men, consider tailored suits, button-down shirts, or sleek sweaters.
Children can wear dressy outfits like simple dresses, button-ups, or cute cardigans. -
Textures: Incorporate luxurious fabrics such as silk, velvet, or lace to enhance the elegance of the setup.
-
Accessories: Statement jewelry, soft scarves, bows, crowns, and polished shoes can add an extra touch of elegance without overpowering the look.
2. Dark, Vintage Style Backdrop:
This backdrop has a rich, nostalgic feel, so you'll want to choose outfits that reflect warmth and timelessness.
-
Colors: Deep, rich tones like burgundy, forest green, mustard yellow, navy, maroon, and earthy browns will complement the vintage style perfectly.
-
Styles: For a vintage look, go for retro-inspired clothing.
For women, vintage-style dresses, tweed jackets, or wool cardigans would work great.
Men can opt for suspenders, vests, plaid shirts, or classic sweaters.
Kids can wear vintage-style dresses, bow ties, coats, hats, or suspenders to match the look. -
Textures: Rich fabrics like velvet, tweed, wool, and corduroy will add depth and warmth to your photos, fitting the vintage theme beautifully.
General Tips:
-
Coordinate Colors: Ensure the outfits of everyone in the photo coordinate well without being too matchy-matchy.
-
Avoid Large Patterns or Logos: Stick to solid colors or subtle patterns to keep the focus on the people and the setting.
-
Comfortable Footwear: Make sure shoes match the formality of the outfits and the setting, but prioritize comfort, especially if there are kids involved.
