mini sessions

Quick, fun, and beautiful family portraits in Fuquay-Varina! Perfect for a seasonal refresh, quick milestones moments or announcements!

Mini sessions are a newer addition to my offerings, created with busy families in mind. They’re short and sweet, but still filled with the same level of care and artistry I bring to my full sessions. During our time together, I’ll gently guide you into natural, flattering poses while leaving plenty of room for genuine interactions and authentic smiles (don’t worry — I’ll never ask you to say “cheese!”).

Based in Fuquay-Varina — or “Fuquay,” as the locals call it — I love helping families capture their best moments in a way that feels easy and stress-free. Whether you’re updating family portraits, celebrating a milestone, or simply wanting to freeze a moment in time, these mini sessions are the perfect way to create lasting memories without the commitment of a full photo shoot.

Why do families love mini sessions?

  • Quick and stress-free

  • Affordable way to update family photos

  • Ideal for kids, toddlers, and pets with short attention spans

  • Great for seasonal photos (spring blooms, fall leaves, holiday cards)

FAQs

  • What is a mini session?
    Mini sessions are short photography sessions held in Fuquay-Varina and surrounding areas in Wake County at carefully chosen outdoor locations. You’ll get all the fun and connection of a full session — just in a shorter time frame that’s perfect for little kids (and busy parents).

  • Where do sessions take place?
    I host mini sessions at some of the most beautiful spots in Fuquay-Varina and nearby areas like Apex, Holly Springs, Cary, and Raleigh, including local parks, fields, and charming hidden gems. When you book, you’ll get the details for the exact location and tips to help you prepare.

  • How much does it cost?
    Mini sessions are $175 and include 10-15 minutes of camera time and 5 fully retouched, high-resolution digital images of your choice from a gallery of approximately 20-30+ images. Additional images or the full gallery can be purchased after your session — no pressure or commitment required!

  • What should we wear?
    I recommend coordinating (not matching) outfits with complementary colors. I’ll link a tips & style guide page after you book to make planning easy.

  • Can we bring pets?
    Yes — if the location allows, furry family members are always welcome!
