Holiday

Serving Raleigh, Durham, and surrounding areas

If you’ve ever thought, “We really need some family photos but don’t have the time (or patience) for a full session,” mini sessions were made for you. Over the past 7 years, we’ve helped hundreds of families across the Raleigh and Durham area capture their fall and holiday memories without the stress—and trust us, they keep coming back for a reason.

Here are 5 reasons our families love mini sessions… and why we think your crew will too:

1. They’re Quick and Easy (Yes, Really)

Let’s be honest, kids (and grown ups!) don’t always love being in front of the camera. That’s why our 15-minute sessions are such a win. You’re in, you’re out, and you’ll still walk away with 8 beautiful, edited images in your online gallery. It’s short enough to keep everyone happy, but long enough for us to work our magic.

2. You’re Getting Ahead of the Game

Our sessions take place in October, November, and December, but by booking now, you can check this off your list early. That means:

• Less stress when school starts back
• Time to focus on fall activities and holidays
• Getting your holiday cards done on time (for once!)

We even offer Christmas in July specials, so you’ll save money by booking now instead of later.

3. The Photos Are Genuinely Beautiful

Don’t let the “mini” part fool you—these sessions pack a punch. Whether you’re joining us at the North Carolina Museum of Art, the American Tobacco Campus, or one of our other favorite outdoor locations around Raleigh/Durham, the backdrops are stunning and the light is magical.

Our team has done this for years, so we know exactly how to bring out natural smiles and those sweet family moments you’ll want to frame.

4. It’s Flexible, Even If Life Happens

We totally get that life doesn’t always go as planned. If it rains, we’ll offer a makeup date. And if your family can’t make it, your deposit can be moved to a different session. Plus:

• Pets are welcome (just keep them leashed and clean up after them)
• You’ll get the exact session location and a detailed map the week of your shoot
• Everything you need will be in your client portal—bookmark it so it’s easy to find!

5. Booking Is Simple—But Spots Go Fast

To officially lock in your session, just sign the contract and pay half the invoice. Your appointment is only held for 48 hours without those two steps, so don’t wait too long.

Because we only offer these sessions during a short window each year and our families around Raleigh, Durham, Cary, and Chapel Hill love them they fill up quickly.

Ready to Book?

We’re here to make this the easiest and most fun photo experience you’ve had. Whether you’re aiming for holiday cards, a quick update to your family album, or just a few sweet seasonal shots, our mini sessions are the perfect fit.

Let’s get you on the calendar and check one big thing off your holiday to-do list in July.
