With October here already, I just wanted to let you know about some autumn mini sessions I’m running over the next few weeks. The mini sessions were so popular last year that due to popular demand I’m running two lots this year, one morning in Richmond and one in Wimbledon (dates are on the image below). Slots filled up really quickly last year so please get in touch to reserve yours asap… I will then contact you with the location etc. A deposit is due to reserve your slot, but this will be deducted from your shoot package cost.

I often get asked what the difference between a mini session and full session is, apart from price so I’ve added in a few q&as below, but if you have any further questions please do get in touch.
How are mini sessions different to normal portrait sessions?
The autumn mini sessions will last 30 minutes, whereas my usual portrait sessions last up to 2 hours. Due to the short timeframe for a mini session, they will take place in a smaller area instead of getting lots of shots in different locations which is what we’d have time for on a full-length shoot. There will still be lots of scope for variety on your mini shoot though! Following your mini session, I will upload around 20 fully edited images to an online, password-protected gallery, whereas after a full session you usually get around 45 images in your gallery. With a full-length portrait session most families spend between £400-£1600 (including the session fee) on prints, digital images or beautiful display products. I have priced these mini sessions at just £220 since I don’t run them often and because with Christmas on the horizon, it’s a cost effective way to get some beautiful up-to-date photos of your family to share with friends and relatives. Also, many families like to have images as digital files at this time of year so that they can get lots of copies of prints to go in Christmas cards or to make photo gifts.
How much are the mini sessions?
The price is £220 per family which includes the following:
- an email questionnaire so that I can find out more about your family before the shoot.
- ‘what to expect’ guide giving tips on what to wear and what to expect on your shoot
- 30 minute mini photo shoot in Richmond or Wimbledon (I will confirm location with you)
- password-protected online gallery with 20 fully edited images live for 7 days
- your digital files beautifully presented on a customised DVD which I will deliver to your door in a gift box.
The normal price for the above package is £350 so this offers a big saving. You are more than welcome to order additional prints and products but you are not under any obligation to do so.
Which slots do you have available?
For the Richmond session the slots are 9am; 9.50am; 10.40am; 11.30am and 12.2opm
For the Wimbledon session the slots are 9am; 9.50am; 10.40am; 11.30am and 12.2opm (those crossed out are booked)
But what if it rains?
If it’s raining that day we will reschedule to Saturday 10 November if you are free or otherwise I can refund your deposit or you can put it towards a custom session with me.
