2017Huck Finn Inspired Sessions!
And another sweet summer session I have been working on is the amazing, Huck Finn inspired sessions!! !
I am absolutely in love with these as I am sure you are too!
Dates:
You can book these Huck Finn sessions ON DEMAND any week day evening between 3pm-7pm from now to September :)
OR Come to one of the MINI SESSION DATES HERE: August 20th and 23rd from 3pm-7:30pm at Crescent Park Pond – 2610 – 128 Street, Surrey (its about a 2-5 min walk from the parking lot)
Price:
Mini Session Dates are $145
On Demand Dates are $225
Sibling Add On: $25
Sessions are 20 minutes long. The pond is WATER, so keep that in mind when you are booking. *This session will requite parent participation*. I will need one parent per younger child if they are a flight risk. I am IN the water when shooting, so it is up to you to keep them safe. The pond is only a few inches deep where we shoot, so I dont have too many concerns ;) Parents are able to be within arms reach at all times. If one of the kids did jump in,its not the end of the world and I would most likely keep shooting anyway :)
Please note if you do arrive early to be respectful of the clients in session. Kids can be distracted or embarrassed quite easily by on lookers and other children. So a mindful distance is appreciated :)
Attire:
Little boys and girls should think jeans, jean shorts, and PLAIN white or light coloured t-shirts, sleeveless or no shirt. Barefeet, sandals, SIMPLE sneakers, converse, dirty feet and grass stained knees are OK ;) *Absolutely NO florescent colours, and I strongly recommend not to wear anything with logos or character clothing*
*note*: Please make sure you bring a activity like colouring or a game, as well as water and some non-sticky snacks. Sessions can run behind from time to time, and we want you to be prepared :) Please read the disclaimer below for more ways to help prep for your session!

Disclaimer- Mini sessions are in no way guaranteed. In a perfect world, this would run perfectly on time, every time and everyones children will be well, happy and do everything we ask of them! But this is not always the case now is it! Not even with your kids right ;) Lisa makes every effort to work with your family and kids, but she can not be responsible for members who are not cooperating/smiling for photos, this includes fussy babies, toddlers who will not pose, teens who are stinky and miserable husbands (bring treats and bribes, the husbands love fruit snacks too!)
PLEASE DO NOT give your kids “treats and bribes” prior to the session, these are magic weapons and to be used when necessary!
DO NOT bring anything with your children that you can NOT take away. If you do not want “Blankie”, or “su-su” or iPads, etc in the photos, then bringing them and allowing them to have them right up to walking in and seeing me and yanking them away, is not a great plan. Bringing things to keep them busy is a great idea, but special comfort items should be avoided, unless you are ok with them in the photos.
You can help make your session more successful by prepping your children before even leaving the house :) For older children, use a point/reward system to earn something awesome after and I can keep that going in the session. For younger children, keep them distracted and happy as that is what my strategy is in the sessions well! (for older kids like mine, they just do what they are told now or else!! lol
You have a lot of power to help in this session way before seeing me! If you would like some more tips, please feel free to ask when you are booking and I am happy to give you a call!
Please just keep this in mind as well as REALITY when you are booking mini sessions. All of the photos here are real kids in a real session, just like yours. But not all kids will do exactly the same thing. I do not force poses or have expectations when any session starts. I work with the children who are in front of me, and adjust my agenda as we go through the session. I want every session to be successful and forcing kids to do anything usually downs work. So try come into every mini session with a open mind and respect who your children are. Take my lead, and try to have some fun with us :)
Please make sure your kids are TATTOO free (big pet peeve lol) Please also note anyone saying, “oh but you can just photoshop that right?” will get a pinch :D ALSO mini session can run a little, (ok, a lot sometimes) behind at times, if you are waiting for your session to start please be patient and do not interrupt the current session, we are all moms and dads and know sometimes other little ones need a little extra few mins at times and no one wants any kids to be left out. Please keep this in mind before you need to be anywhere else!
Thank-you for your understanding.
If your child is facing any challenges or concerns we should be aware of, if there is special needs that we can accommodate or any restrictions due to disabilities, please contact us with your concerns. We want to make sure that all kids who want to come out are welcomed with open arms!
XOXO- Lisa Marie
