2025 Fall & Holiday Mini Sessions

Something For Everyone! Multiple Days and Locations Offered

Fall Mini Sessions

Saturday, October 18, 2025
(Rain Date: October 19, 2025)

 

Outdoor Location:  The Carillon in Richmond VA - Think fall colors, steps, grassy areas, and a tree-covered walkway


Pets Are Welcome and must remain on leash at all times.  Every effort will be made to the hide leash from view, but leash removal in post editing will only be available at an additional fee. 

Details:

  • 20-minute sessions between 9am-4:30pm

  • Perfect for 2-8 people (add $25 per extra person)

  • Beautiful seasonal backdrops for a warm, autumn feel

 

Rain Date Policy
We will photograph all sessions unless there is steady rain or a downpour. Cloudy skies, light mist, or overcast conditions are still a go—these actually make for beautifully soft, flattering light.


If weather requires moving the session, your original time slot will transfer to the rain date, October 19th, 2025


If we are completely rained out and cannot reschedule within the rain date, all sessions will be canceled and your session fee will be refunded in full.


All final weather calls will be made no later than 9:00 PM the evening before and communicated via email/text.

If you are unable to attend due to illness, your session fee is non-refundable but may be transferable to another family or used as a credit toward a future session, at the photographer’s discretion.


Dress in layers for comfort—fall weather in Richmond can be unpredictable.

Exclusive Designer-Styled Holiday Sessions

Saturday, November 8th 

Capture your holiday portraits in a renovated 1910 Downtown Richmond building, home to a celebrated designer’s showroom. For this event, we’ll transform part of the space into a professionally designer styled holiday “room” — classic, elegant, with a nod to the holidays and created just for this day.

With only a handful of 30-minute sessions available, this is a rare chance to be photographed in a designer-created setting that will never be replicated.

Details:

  • Limited availability 

  • 30-minute session

  • All final edited images (25+ high-res)

  • 3 day turnaround gallery delivery

  • Holiday card design delivered within 7 days

  • Complimentary hot cocoa and champagne at the session

Package $275.00

 

Weather & Reschedule Policy
Because these sessions are indoors, they will take place rain or shine.


If you are unable to attend either fall or holiday sessions due to illness, your session fee is non-refundable but may be transferable to another family or used as a credit toward a future session, at the photographer’s discretion.

 To guarantee your spot, please book and prepay online.  Session fees are non-refundable due to the time, planning, and scheduling involved in making each session a success. If you arrive late, you will be offered the remaining time left in your 20-minute booking.  If you are more than 10 minutes late, you will forfeit your time slot, and you will be offered the next available opening, which could result in a long wait time.
