mini sessions

In an attempt to get everyone booked in who wants to get booked in, I am going to try a set of mini sessions. What is a mini session I hear you ask? Well its really just a smaller shoot. Normal sessions go for an hour, but a mini session is only twenty minutes.

I am thinking of scheduling the first one in on the 18th of February, and it will be a themed styled shoot on location. For the theme i am loving the idea of "Black and White Circus". Interested? Email for more info!

Sessions need to be booked by Monday the 30th of January.

Seeing as the mini sessions are only twenty minutes long, they are only really suitable for kids aged from about three and up, and only up to three kids together. Possibly babies who are sitting up really well by themselves too. Not suitable for newborns or a family session. Great for clients who just want a quick session to update their photos.

Mini sessions will be only offered on set days, at set locations, so places are limited.

Although I will have all the props set up, you could decide how much "theme" you want to go, if that makes sense. You could just dress the kids in black and white and meet the criteria. Or you could get all funky and do black and white stripey leggings with a black pettiskirt for girls, and black jeans with a white shirt and black polka dot braces for boys. Add a funky cap and some pretty white flowers and we are set and it will look gorgeous!! Wearing white shirts with black pants is not really the look we are aiming for here. You dont need to go the whole way and dress up the kids as clowns ( although you could, and it would be super cute! ) but a happy fun carnival style is what will work.

Of course I had to blog a picture, but dont exactly have one that i thought matched, so i am posting these black and white mood boards. Yes, its a wedding mood board but its black and white so i worked with what i could find.

Mood Boards from Snippet and Ink.
