Update: We are SOLD OUT. Thank you so much for your interest!
Well, I can’t say I remember the last time I did a round of mini sessions. Honestly, it’s been well over a year and it’s just not something I can always do as my shooting schedule can get quite busy but I really wanted to make it work this year. Since moving to Alton Village in Burlington, I knew I wanted to get to know my community better. I’ve met quite a few families here already and I can’t say enough about our neighbourhood. After joining a Facebook group for mama’s living in Alton Village and seeing how many wonderful moms were on board, it hit me. I couldn’t think of a better way to connect with so many amazing families in a short period of time. And thus, mama minis were born!
Why mama minis? Well, it’s my way of connecting with the women in my community; many of whom have children that my children will grow up with for years to come. I also know, as a busy mama myself, that I can count on *one* hand the number of photos I’m actually in with my own children. It’s sad. I don’t blame anyone for it. It’s just the way it goes, but I absolutely hate the thought of my kids feeling like I wasn’t present in their lives if ever they decide to take a trip down memory lane one day. The thing is, our children don’t care what we look like, how much makeup we may (or may not) be wearing, or if we’re in sweats. And we shouldn’t either.
We deserve to have a beautiful photo or two of ourselves with our children; this is what I want to do for you.
Mama minis will take place on Saturday May 4th (with a rain date set for Sunday May 5th). Right in time for Mother’s Day. I only have 9Â spots available – so it’s first come, first serve and only for families living in Alton Village at this time (if there’s enough demand, I will try to add another date). Sessions will take place outdoors (somewhere in or closely around Alton Village). Each session is 20 minutes in length, which will allow time for me to take photos of each mama and their littles (I can only accommodate up to 3 children at this time). I have a few things planned to keep it fun and light for the kiddies (I’ll keep that under wraps for now) but what I can tell you now is that although we’ll be outside enjoying the spring air and sunshine, I’ll have a special setup planned that will keep the focus on what truly matters most!
You can pick between TWO packages with different price points.
1 20 minute session, 2 retouched digital files (to print up to 8×10) and 1 8×10 gift print for $150.00 plus HSTÂ or
1 20 minute session, 5 retouched digital files (to print up to 8×10) and 2 8×10 gift prints for $250.00 plus HST
A $50 deposit is required to secure your spot. Please contact me via email or the contact form with your first and second choice for time slots and I’ll do my best to accommodate you! :) And please note the spots already taken.
