Each session lasts around 15 minutes. It's designed to be short and sweet so that I can keep your children's attention and capture some beautiful images for you.

Sessions will take place near Wareham, Dorset. Full location details including parking information will be sent upon booking.

The best part about these mini sessions is that we're not reliant on the weather! As they are taking place indoors it doesn't matter if it rains or shines.

Your session includes 2 digital images of your choice from your finished gallery. Additional images will be available to purchase if you'd like more.

Anything Christmassy goes! I'd recommend choosing outfits that you feel comfortable and confident in. Neutral, warm and festive colours work beautifully with the Christmas backdrop, but there's no need for everyone to match perfectly. The backdrop uses cream, red, brown and green.

Your finished photographs will be carefully edited and uploaded to your private online gallery around 2-3 weeks after your session so plenty of time before Christmas. You'll then be able to choose your two included images. If you need or want your photos sooner, there is a "Skip-the-Queue" speedy editing upgrade option which can be purchased at the time of booking, and means you will have your gallery back within 24 hours.

That's absolutely fine!

Fifteen minutes can feel like a long time to little ones, but my sessions are relaxed and I'll work with their personalities rather than expecting them to sit perfectly still.

Some of the best photographs happen when children are simply being themselves.

Unfortunately, due to the indoor location of this shoot dogs are not able to be accommodated at this time. If you'd like to include your dog, please contact me about booking a family photoshoot where we can tailor it to your family's needs.

Not at all!

You don't need any previous experience in front of the camera, and you certainly don't need to practise poses beforehand.

I'll give you simple prompts and suggestions throughout the session, but most of the time I'll be encouraging you to interact with each other naturally. My aim is for your photographs to look and feel like you, rather than a collection of stiff, posed images.
