MINI SESSIONS
OCT 15th | OCT 29th
Each year I offer limited spots for 15 minute mini sessions. These sessions are best for those who just want a couple of updated images. You’ll receive an online gallery with plenty of beautiful film images to choose from. Please read on for all the information. You can find the link to book at the bottom of the page.
HOW TO BOOK
You can use the booking link below to choose your date and time. Please reference the FAQs for locations. To reserve your spot you'll make an initial payment of $225. This payment is not refundable but if you need to cancel it can be used towards a future regular session within the calendar year.
PRE SESSION
After you've booked, I’ll email you my welcome guide to help walk you through choosing your outfits and how to prepare for our time together. I’ll also confirm our meeting spot and any other relevant details. Our session will be quick and easy, all you have to do is come relaxed and ready to hang out with your favorite people.
POST SESSION
After your session is done, I’ll mail the film to the lab. They will then process, scan and email me your images digitally. I'll upload them to an online viewing gallery where you choose which Collection you wish to purchase. You don't have to decide which Collection you want until you've seen your images. Your $225 initial payment will go towards whatever Collection you decide to purchase. Once you purchase, you'll have a full month to download your images.

FAQS
WHAT DATE AND LOCATION ARE YOU OFFERING
Mini sessions will take place in the evening on October 15th in San Jose at Guadalupe Oak Grove and in the morning on October 29th at Baker Beach in San Francisco. All the images above are from these two locations. Please note that the San Jose location requires a short uphill walk. It is definitely worth the effort but keep that in mind when booking. If an uphill walk is not an option for you please choose the earliest available time and let me know. I will move your session to an earlier time if necessary and we can shoot in a lower portion of the park instead.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER WE BOOK
After you book I’ll send you a welcome guide which will give you all the details that you’ll need to prepare for our shoot including what to wear. I will also include other details for our shoot like where to meet and what to expect.
WHEN DO WE GET TO SEE OUR PICTURES
Please allow 4 weeks for me to get your images back to you.
DO YOU HAVE REVIEWS
Yes! You can read my glowing reviews on Google.
WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR
Clothes make a huge difference on how your photos turn out so I take an active role in helping you choose clothes that will photograph well. After you book I’ll send you a welcome guide that includes information about what type of clothes and colors to choose.
WHAT IF IT RAINS
Fingers crossed for good weather but if it does end up raining I will offer a reschedule date. October weather is usually beautiful but if there’s fog at the bridge, there will be no rescheduling so please keep in mind that having the bridge visible in the background is not guaranteed and we will utilize a different area of the beach in that case.
WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL
Please note that when you reserve a spot you are paying a nonrefundable initial payment. Mini sessions are unique in that they are stacked sessions taking place one after another so I don’t have any flexibility when it comes to moving things around. I do understand that sometimes emergencies come up and I always try to be accommodating but there is no guarantee that I can reschedule another mini session for you so if you cancel and you want to use your initial payment towards another session it can be put towards a full session this calendar year. It is not refundable so please keep this in mind before booking.
