Book a Fall 2025 sessions

Hi friend,

Happy fall! I hope the transition from summer to a routine, back to school and all that this time of the year holds has been as smooth as possible. And, that the weekends offer a slower pace, a time for you to connect from the busyness of the week.

Fall family sessions are open and I have availability for a few more full sessions and my mini sessions have a few slots left. 🍂

You’ll find the booking links waiting for you just below. I can’t wait to capture this cozy, colorful season with your family. I find these to be such a great way to slow down with your family, have a family date before or after, and enjoy the intentional time a photo session can provide. They don’t have to be stressful, and I’d love to share more on how they can be a refreshing experience for you and your crew. ✨

What is the difference between a mini session and a full session?

Mini Sessions (15 minutes · $275)

Think of these as your family’s highlight reel. Short + sweet, with the location already chosen by me. We’ll focus on those “everyone looking at the camera” moments that make perfect holiday cards or yearly updates for the grandparents. You’ll receive 15+ images in an online gallery—mostly posed, polished, and ready for framing. Minis are only offered once or twice a year, so they’re a rare treat!

🌿 Full Sessions (60-90 minutes · $450)

This is where your family’s story gets to breathe. With a full hour to ninety minutes together, we have time for movement, play, and connection—capturing not just how your family looks, but how this season feels. We work at your child’s pace, not the clock. You can choose the location (or we can decide together), change outfits if you’d like, and know that there’s space for little ones to warm up naturally. You’ll receive 40+ images in an online gallery—a mix of posed and lifestyle moments, from the big smiles to the quiet in-betweens. Full sessions are available year-round.

Thank you for letting me slow down and see your family a little closer each year. It’s such a gift to be part of your story, and I can’t wait for the moments we’ll capture together soon! - Brooke
