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!

Why Milestone Collections? | Richardson, TX Family Photography

As a new mom your focus is to prepare for your new baby, plan their nursery and make sure to confirm your photographer for your newborn session before your baby arrives. You want to remember those first few moments with your new baby. Between those sleepless nights, you want to capture your baby’s tiny details, how they fit just perfectly in your arms and their sweet smell.

So often we wait to look at capturing the moments of their first year. The 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and one year milestones. Sitting, crawling or even standing. It is so sweet to capture these precious stages. One thing I would tell my clients to do is to book a collection to schedule those milestones!

I have had mama’s say “I am so glad I had these scheduled. It allowed me not to worry about making sure I tried to take the pictures on myself” or “I wasn’t frantically trying to book something at the last minute.” I could be present each and every day. It gives you, as a mama, a sense of relief to know your little one will have pictures at every stage.

Did you know I offer Collections for this very reason? Yes, collections include a 6 month, 9 month or even one year session. Booking sessions as a collection allows you to capture each milestone, and to book your session early before things book up. We can adjust the timing based on when your baby hits their milestones plus you have updated pictures for each sweet stage with your family! You can even book a session that includes a first year album. All those sweet milestones wrapped into one place you can flip through at any moment!
