Fall Mini Sessions | Family

I spend time planning Fall mini sessions each summer, picking specific locations and dates for my clients. There are so many things that play a factor in my planning, and I love photographing your families year after year! This year there are 4 locations I will be offering. For each date, my hope is to have some Fall colors at each location and to bring the perfect backdrop throughout September and October!

Locations

(1) Prairie Creek Park, Richardson, TX (2) Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, Plano, TX

(3) Flippen Park, Highland Park, TX (4) Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth, TX

What will you receive?

Mini sessions include your choice of 12 images. Most galleries will include 30-40 images which is why I allow you to upgrade to the full gallery for $100. I know this may be your only family portrait session for the year, plus sometimes it is just too hard to narrow down your favorite images!

Why I focus on specific shots.

My focus for Fall Mini Sessions is on your full family, Christmas card portrait. I know this is the money shot that everyone wants. I will capture your family in a variety of posed and candid portraits. I want to make sure you have options! During our session, I hope to capture at least one images of each of your kids as well as your kids all together plus mom and dad individually with all the kids. Lastly, I do love to sneak in one last picture of the parents as we wrap up!

Products in your gallery.

This year I switched my gallery host and love that I get to offer families so many products! From individual prints, albums and frames to holiday cards! Yes, you read that right. I will be offering a few holiday card options through your gallery!

SAVE THE DATE: Fall Mini Session | Dallas, TX Family Photography

SAVE THE DATE: Sunday, August 1st.

I will be releasing my 2021 Fall Mini Session dates and locations on Sunday, August 1st. If you are a newsletter subscriber you will begin receiving details and information in my July newsletter. If you would like to sign up to make sure you get the information, you can join my newsletter list here.

This year I will be offering most of my sessions in early Fall, September and October. Last year I did earlier sessions due to the unknown with Covid and I loved how most, if not all of my mini sessions were wrapped up before the holidays. Colors are prettier, the leaves are falling or still in the trees, and you are able to take advantage of all the holiday card sales!

I will be offering a very limited number as our Fall will look a little different this year. We hope to have our oldest in soccer, and this will take up some of my Saturday offerings. If you are interested in a full portrait session to make sure you get your family pictures, reach out to me now! There are only a few spots left for the Fall and newborns are booking them quickly!

3 Tips for Fall Mini Sessions | Fort Worth, TX Family Photography

Here we are 6 months late, but it can’t go without saying I have the BEST clients! I loved seeing so many families this Fall during such a unique year. Capturing your holiday sessions is always a delight.

Fall sessions can be stressful. We all have 1000 things to do in the Fall from sports, holidays, and school events, I feel like it quickly fills up our calendars each year. As we head into Fall 2021, I will have limited availability for Fall Mini Sessions.

Before we head into Fall, I wanted to share 3 quick tips to prepare for your session! There are always more tips for your family sessions, but these can help get those sweet smiles and laughs.

Plan ahead:

Plan for your mini session. When is the best time of day for your children? Many young kids nap in the morning and afternoon. As we get later into the Fall, some of the early afternoon sessions are during nap time or dinner time. Think about your children’s schedule before you snag a spot!

Bribe:

It is always okay to bribe! Donuts, candy (sweet tarts, raisins are always good choices), ice cream, you name it, but bribing is okay! We want your kiddos to have fun and give us a few smiles. These are quick 20 minute sessions. Sometimes by the time kids warm up, your session is over :)

Schedule them early:

Yes, you read that right, snag a September spot! The earlier the better and then you are guaranteed to get all the deals on the Holiday card specials! Plus, you know you will have your cards out the door by Thanksgiving! Huge win for this Mama!
