Mini Sessions
Mini sessions are a great option for families that are truly looking for “just a few photos.” Minis take place throughout the year on predetermined dates at select locations and can’t be booked as stand-alone sessions. Due to their brief nature, the Client Closet and stylist are not part of this experience.

Mini-Session faq
How long is a mini-session?
HOw much does a mini session cost?
Can I book a mini session whenever I want?
These are quick, 15-minute sessions that are back-to-back with other clients' mini-sessions. In and out, so you can get back to your busy life.
Unfortunately, no. The only way a mini session date can be customized is if you host a mini session party with five other families (retainers required).
Mini sessions vary in price, so be sure to click on the mini session page for the current pricing. For most mini sessions, you will receive five hand-edited images for your investment, with an optional to upgrade your gallery for more images for an additional fee.
How is a mini-session different than a standard session?
Mini sessions are 15-minute sessions on a designated date at a specific location. You will receive five images with this session, with the option to purchase more. A standard session is a much more customized session, where you can choose your location, date, have access to the Client Closet and we will have an hour to work together. Because of the extra time, you will receive much more variety in terms of background and posing. You will also receive all of your edited images!
How do I book a mini session?
Just a few steps secure your date and time:
- Choose your time slot
- Sign your contract and pay your $100 retainer to secure your session
- Review the prep guide and prep emails leading up to your mini session date and reach out with any questions
- Pay your balance the day before your session
- Rock your mini-session with your family and receive your images within two weeks to choose your favorites
How many images will I receive?
You will receive 5 hand-edited, digital images within two weeks of your session via an online gallery. You’ll have full rights to your images to print and share through whichever service you prefer. If you would like to upgrade your gallery, you can do so upon receiving your images for an additional fee.
"First, scheduling was super easy through her website. Sharon is very communicative from booking and up until picture day.

We have two small children and somehow Sharon had them smiling and laughing the whole time feeling like they were playing and not working for photos.
The fact that Sharon used to be a teacher was beyond beneficial in your kids taking an active and fun part in getting great photos. I received the pictures and couldn’t believe how many amazing shots she was able to capture of us knowing how difficult it can be to get kids to cooperate. I am already looking forward to booking with Sharon next year and I cannot recommend Sharon and her team more for your next family photo shoot."
"Sharon was absolutely lovely to work with. I'm not the type of person who particularly enjoys photoshoots, but she is exceptionally adept at putting her clients at ease. Her studio is equal parts tranquil, tasteful and casual so that my wife and I were not in the least bit overwhelmed.

Sharon anticipates every possible need and plans accordingly so that you don't have to.
She is able to maintain the pace of her shoots, moving them forward judiciously without making the client feel rushed or unappreciated. She was completely down-to-earth and personable. It sounds cliché, but talking with her felt like catching up with an old friend – exactly we needed after the hectic experience of bringing our first child into the world. Sharon was more than worth the cost."
"I was first introduced to Sharon in 2024 when I did a session of personality portraits, and I was instantly impressed. A few friends had used her before and raved about her work, and now I completely understand why! Sharon truly works magic behind the camera. She is incredibly organized, answering all questions and planning every detail ahead of time.

There’s never a need to stress about locations, directions, or even bad weather—she has a backup plan for everything!
One of my favorite parts of working with her is the dress consult to help plan outfits. She has such a great eye for style and helps put together looks that photograph beautifully."
"I am so happy to have had Sharon capture photos of my family. She was so easy to work with, from scheduling to planning and coordinating, she could not have made the process more simple. She showed up on the day-of super prepared, with a whole wagon full of stuff just in case, including snacks for my kids!

She worked so well with my children: she truly understands that children are going to get bored fast and she worked around their moods perfectly.
I love that she captured my kids' candid smiles, and not just the posed ones. To top it off, the final product was beyond my expectations and delivered in under a week! You can tell that she loves what she's doing and it shows in her work. She is truly a gem and I can't wait to work with her again as my children grow up!"
"Sharon is an absolute gem! It has been 3.5 years since I found her and since then she has captured the most adorable and perfect pictures of my two sons and our family.
From newborn sessions, cake smashes and family photos, not one detail has ever been overlooked. Her process is seamless and she makes everything so accessible and easy.
She offers so many options for photo opportunities and has perfected a style that really is timeless! She was so wonderful with each of my children when they were newborns, that it made the experience so worth it! Couldn’t recommend enough!"
