Disclaimer- Mini sessions are in no way guaranteed. Parents are under order to come with a realistic attitude! Kids are kids. And these are “mini” sessions. 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!) Also be prepared for a LOT of laughing and obnoxious silly faces, Lisa has no shame! PLEASE DO NOT give your kids “treats and bribes” prior to the session, these are magic weapons and to be used when necessary! Please just keep this in mind when you are booking mini sessions. All finished photos will receive editing, but not retouching or extreme measures such as “swapping heads” ;), 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 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.

Family Christmas Minis 2015

Family Holiday MINI Sessions!!!!

Alright, we have quite a few things for you to consider this year! So please read over the ENTIRE blog carefully before sending in your requests. In order to accommodate the different needs each families I am changing things up a bit. Offering both a mini session event, as well as on demand options!

Lets start with FAMILY HOLIDAY SESSION WEEKEND! 

The sets are still on route and I can’t wait to dec this place out! The weekend I am offering the first option will be your most affordable because we are setting up the set once and then booking multiple sessions. So if you want this price then you must book for the weekend I am offering. If you want to book this set on a night of your choice, the on demand option will cost more. But will be a little longer. Details below for that.

Holiday Mini Session Event will be held November 21th and 22st. You can use these for just Kids or just families.

“Warm and Rustic Holiday Wishes” (just imagine it a little more decked out!!)

 

BirchHolidays-8x8

 

 

Whats included! This year your session time is 15 mins and includes a high resolution gallery  where you get to choose YOUR favourite 5 images… sent via email with instant download capability, sharing options on all social media sites, custom links for easy emailing, affordable printing options, and safe online storage for up to 10 years, as well as a free app for your smart phone where you can show off your gallery anywhere you are!

When: November 21th and 22st

Who’s invited? You and your family, Just the kids, pets, everyone! The studio is small, so immediate families of 5-6 is maximum. Please be prepared to sit for your photos!

What to wear?: This is a great time to bring out the Christmas outfits, or dress up in your favourite christmas sweaters! Keep in mind that you will be asked to sit so dress comfortably.

Cost: The cost is $125 per session, no additional cost per person (MAX 2-3 adults per session due to studio size). Immediate family members only. Cousins and friends can be booked back to back and we will allow for some combined photos.

ON DEMAND OPTIONS!

I may add to these options, and will let you know if I do. This time of year its SO hard to pick just one set. And I get requests to do past designs and I just can’t seem to say no. So this is my compromise! It a lot of time and money to create these sets each time, so these “On Demand” options will be a bit more expensive. But you have the advantage of choosing a time that works best for you, you have extra time (20 mins) if you want to do a outfit change and  your photos will be turned around in 5 days or less.

ALL ON DEMAND OPTIONS are available for booking starting November-Mid December 18th and offered weeknights. Cost for each session is $165

The KIDS ONLY sets are smaller and meant for babies, toddlers and younger kids. The Family sets are larger but also can be “propped” up for kids :)

Some sets are still in transit. They will be fantastic! BLOG WILL BE UPDATED ONCE EVERYTHING ARRIVES (hopefully lol), but to give everyone an idea of the sets I have created this blog for a quick reference.

There will be a couple of styles to choose from, you may choose ONE per session fee. Have a look at each design and make note of what is for Families and what is for Kids. Make sure you mention which set you want to use when booking.

 

KIDS ONLY OPTION (Recommended age 10 and under) *Twas a magical night* A great one for PJ’s and scarfs! Im thinking hot coco!! :) :

Santa Minis 2015

SantaAD header

 

Its beginning to look a lot like SANTA IS COMING!!!

 

SantaAD

 

Our annual Santa Mini sessions are BACK! Every child will have a mini session with Christmas Props, as well as time with Santa! These are not just photo sessions, they are an experience. That you get to all be a part of. Throw out your idea of the typical Santa visit though! No waiting in line and praying you get your kids on that big ole lap. We are not looking to replace tradition, but to enhance to it! We don’t pose your kiddos on Santa’s lap, and let him be the main event, we are focused on the kids 100%, their reactions, emotions and Santa is just an idea, and more of a “prop”.

 

santablog1

 

 

These sessions are honestly the most memorable mini sessions I have ever done, HANDS DOWN. There is an element to these that I did not anticipate when I started doing them 5 years ago :) Being quick and having tons of experience with small kids makes for an excellent mini session photographer. But you add a big guy in a red suit with a beard, WHOA…this takes on something entirely new. I have never been so emotionally excited and exhausted after an event. The pure magical and sometimes horrific reactions had me and my team on our toes!

For this reason we added the “portrait” mini bonus in the beginning of the session with NO Santa to start so no matter what reaction your little ones have, you leave with some holiday magic :) *please note, it is not an option to just do Santa or the portrait session at a discount. If you are just looking for Holiday Mini’s with NO Santa, check out all the Holiday Mini Sessions HERE!

santaBLOG8

 

 

What can you expect?? ANYTHING!!! That’s whats so different about these sessions. You really can’t predict most of the time what the reactions will be. With more time then just plopping your kid on some strangers lap, even kids who are a bit afraid sometimes can overcome that fear and pose with a scary 19 year old in a red suit ;)

 

santaBLOGcute

 

SantaBLOG9

 

santacutiepies

 

And… sometimes, they are still a little nervous :)

 

santaBLOG6

 

 

And that’s perfectly imperfect as well!

I have to admit, there is a special place in my heart for ALL of these reactions! No matter what way your kiddo reacts, you have the memory forever. And let me tell you as a mom of a 19 year old (who also plays our UN-intimidating Jolly Santa)…. THESE ones are PRICELESS!!!! (literally there are no limitations on what you can do with gold like these!)

santaBLOGSADagain

 

As I said, this is an experience!! One I look forward to sharing with you and your kids.  You can choose to prep your kids and tell them what they are doing, or as most do, make it a surprise! You know you kids best. You may just be surprised as to how they react! I am looking forward to a couple of these kids above coming back this year. I can’t wait to see some of those fears turn into excitement :)

PLEASE DO NOT give your kids “treats and bribes” prior to the session, these are magic weapons and to be used when necessary! Please just keep this in mind when you are booking mini sessions. All finished photos will receive editing, but not retouching or extreme measures such as “swapping heads” ;), 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 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. Allot an extra 15 mins after before you need to be anywhere else! Thank-you for your understanding.

What if it RAINS?? These sessions are rain or shine! This is BC, we adapt :) and the farm house is an excellent locations to shoot rain or shine, with several barns, and covered areas. Every year has worked out amazing, we have had a little rain, even some SNOW in the past and with them being mini sessions it seems to work awesome, Im fast and move quickly so no-one gets too cold. Make sure to bring COATS for the kids even for in-between takes shots!! Redwood Park has massive trees and is great even if its sprinkling, but in a heavy rain we will relocate but NOT CANCEL unless of emergency….

What to wear?? Oh this is the best time to start your shopping! Fall clothing is out in stores now, Pick a color pallet you want to work with and have some fun! Its ok to not be very “matchy”, but its also very appealing to take your pallet and find fun ways to blend your family together. Try this Google search for inspiration! “what to wear photography”
