“I had a fabulous experience getting family photographs from Lisa Poseley. She suggested a beautiful, natural setting, and she had great ideas for poses and angles that really brought out the personality of our family. The images worked perfectly for our holiday cards, wall portraits, and gifts. Lisa Poseley is a top-notch professional, and she knows how to keep it fun. We had a great time, and we were delighted with the product! Thank you, Lisa!”

FALL FAMILY MINI SESSIONS

We will capture beautiful images of the entire family, as well as individual portraits of your children.

Packages starting at $350

Several new locations have been added this year for fall family photos. Each offers a variety of areas to photograph so we can create a gorgeous gallery of images for you to select from.

The fall family mini-session is perfect for updating family photos, and many clients use these for their holiday cards. It is a great choice for families with children of all ages. We will get a beautiful variety of images and use more than one area for the sessions. Your photos will be available in a private online gallery one week after the session. Expect 25-35 images in your viewing gallery.

The gallery of images will be culled, removing unusable photos, and fully retouched so that if you purchase additional images, they are ready to download right away!

Easy online image selection and download from a private gallery.

Kids do very well at these sessions. It’s a low-stress photoshoot, and kids can run around as needed. I've been doing this for many years, and very rarely have kids not participated—more often, they love it!! I really enjoy working with kids and am very comfortable with kids with special needs. Just let me know in your booking questionnaire!

FAQ

The most frequently asked questions about our mini sessions!

  • We have a generous cancellation policy. If you are unable to attend the session, it may be rescheduled, based on availability, or kept as a credit to use towards any other session.

  • The only time we cancel a mini session is if it’s actively raining or the temperature is dangerously cold. In either case, we keep an eye on the weather and will offer several rescheduling options.

  • Yes! We love having the family dogs at sessions. Please check with us to ensure they’re allowed, but most of the locations we use permit dogs.

    TIP: Arrive early and let your dog get familiar and sniff around well before the session. Also, tire your dog out before the session!

  • Usually, children do pretty well at these sessions because they’re low-stress, and I love working with kids and making them feel welcome.

    Please follow the advice of no pressure on children. Don’t ask them to smile or continually repeat directions that I give. Trust the process! I may ask parents to step out of eyesight briefly. There are lots of tricks!

    Even with fussy children, I can almost always still get some great photos.

  • We do not provide raw files or unedited images. The gallery will be culled down to 25-35 images. All will be retouched. You can select and download the quantity included in your package, and there is an option to purchase additional photos.

  • Your image gallery will be delivered within two weeks of your session.
