mini sessions that are sentimental & full of nostalgia
Mini Sessions
Sometimes you just need a mini session, right?
I am a firm believer that some memories are meant for storytelling and 30 minutes just isn't long enough to do that. However, I understand that there are some sessions we do just for fun because they won't be this little for long! I offer a select few "themed" mini sessions (I hate how cheesy that sounds) throughout the year that capture the season in a really cute way. I keep my mini sessions really simple to focus more on you than the props! These go fast so head below to snag your spot!

Christmas is my favorite time of year and it was brought even more to life seeing it through my child's eyes. I want to give you the gift of capturing that magic through your own children. We can decorate the tree, bake/decorate Christmas cookies, snuggle on the couch in Christmas PJs, read a Christmas book, you get the idea. These are for the family archive for sure!

Yes of course! Mini's can be great for simple newborn sessions with parents and siblings holding baby. I do not do posed newborn photos at this time so this would be more of a lifestyle session.
Can we bring our Newborn?
Of course! I am in the business of preserving love through imagery. Whoever & whatever you love are welcome! That being said, I do not offer traditional extended family sessions where everyone is stacked and smiling at the camera. When involving pets, I do simply ask that any aggressive pets be left at home and all pets should be managed by someone at all times for the safety of myself and others.
Can other family members or pets join us?
Such a bummer when someone gets sick or it rains. You're just SOL. JK! Weather is unpredictable but I will push it to it's limits. If we cannot make it work, I will have a backup date just in case. If someone get's sick or something comes up, I will try to help you sell your spot but due to the nature of mini sessions, the deposit is non refundable.
What about INCLEMENT weather or sick kids?
Don't stress! I will provide an outfit inspiration guide for every mini session to help you bring the full vision to life. Ultimately, I always want your photos to feel like you but with some color coordination!

Our experience was amazing. Lauren took the time to make us comfortable and we actually had a really fun time. The kids even asked if we could do it again! Like what?!
If you are looking for a local photographer, you will absolutely love working with this wonderful human! She is talented, creative and so fun! Highly recommend!
I was so nervous to be in front of the camera after having a baby but Lauren took the time to make sure I was feeling and looking good. I can't imagine NOT having these first photos as a family of 3.
