What's the difference between a mini session and a full session?
Time and variety. A mini session is 20-45 minutes at 1-2 locations with 1-2 outfits. A full session is 1-3 hours with multiple locations, outfits, and more creative variety. Mini sessions are perfect when you know exactly what you need.
Can I do a mini session during lunch?
Absolutely. Our Express and Mini packages are designed for exactly this. We'll meet you near your office, shoot for 20-30 minutes, and you're back before anyone notices.
How many photos will I get?
Depends on the package: Express gets you 8-10, Mini gets 12-15, and Mini+ gets 18-22. All fully edited and retouched.
Can I upgrade to a full session later?
Yes! If you love your mini session and want more, we'll credit the mini session price toward a full session within 30 days.
Where do mini sessions take place?
We have several go-to spots in Manhattan and Brooklyn that work beautifully for mini sessions. You can also suggest your own location—a favorite park, your neighborhood, or even your apartment rooftop.
