Is a Christmas Mini Session Right for You?

Updated: Sep 16


Christmas mini sessions are short and sweet, but full of meaning. They’re ideal for busy families, first-timers, and anyone wanting beautiful Christmas photos without a full-length shoot.


What Is a Christmas Mini Session?


A Christmas mini session is a short photo shoot that lasts between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the package you choose.


They’re perfect if:

  • You’re not sure how your child will respond to a photo session

  • You’re short on time

  • You want a taste of professional photos before booking a full session

  • You want updated family images for Christmas cards or gifts


During minis, I don’t direct too much. Whether your little one is smiling, hugging you, or even pulling a grumpy face, I capture it all — these moments are part of your story.

What’s Included in a Christmas Mini Session?

Each mini session includes:

  • Access to two brand new Christmas set-ups (we don’t reuse sets)

  • Time in the studio for your shoot

  • A private gallery to view your photos

  • Professional editing of your selected images

  • Delivery of your digital images within 5–10 days

How Do Christmas Mini Sessions Work?


Each year, I offer two completely new Christmas backgrounds, designed with care to offer something fresh and festive.


The sets are built to suit children and families, warm, inviting, and seasonal, without being too busy.


Mini sessions are scheduled back-to-back, so please be on time — sessions cannot be extended.


Are Mini Sessions Worth It?


Absolutely — if you want beautiful, professional photos that capture your family as you are right now.


You may only spend 20–40 minutes in front of the camera, but the memories last much longer. My children love looking back at our old Christmas photos. They laugh, point, and remember what they were doing at that exact moment. It becomes more than just a photo — it’s a part of their childhood story.


That’s what I want to create for you, too.


Not Sure If It’s Right for You?


If you have any questions regarding mini sessions, please contact me, and I will be happy to help.
