Why I no longer offer Mini Sessions

& what I’m doing instead..


For years, mini sessions seemed like the go-to option for busy families wanting quick, affordable photos.

But over time, I realised something was missing. These short sessions felt rushed, impersonal, and didn’t allow me to truly capture the love and connection that make family photography so magical. 


So, I made a change.


I’m moving away from mini sessions and instead introducing two distinct experiences designed to give you beautiful, stress-free family photos that feel natural, joyful, and truly ‘you’.

Introducing the Signature & Petite Story Sessions


I now offer two exclusive family photography experiences:


Signature Story Session – A Full Experience


If you want a fully immersive photography experience that tells your family’s story in a natural and relaxed way, the Signature Story Session is for you. 


1-hour session at a stunning outdoor location of your choice (anywhere from Burleigh to Byron!)

A relaxed and fun session where I capture the connection, laughter, and real moments between your family

No rushing, no stress – we take our time to create timeless, heartfelt images

Includes a keepsake photo book with the full gallery package


Pricing:

10 Images – $650

20 Images – $850

Full Gallery (100+) – $1050 (Includes a keepsake photobook!)

$125 deposit required to book (applies toward total)


If you’ve been craving a session that captures the real essence of your family ~ where kids can be themselves, parents can relax, and the results are beautifully natural images ~ you’ll love this experience.



Petite Portrait Session – Short & Sweet (Monday- Thursday only)


For families who want beautiful, natural photos without the full weekend commitment, I’m also offering the Petite Portrait Session.


30-minute session at one of two pre-selected locations (no custom locations for these)

Available Monday–Thursday evenings/mornings only

A perfect option for busy families who want a quick, beautiful session with minimal fuss


Pricing:

10 digitals – $400

20 digitals – $550

Full gallery of digitals – $650


This is an exclusive weekday-only offering, ideal for families who love a more relaxed, simple process but still want gorgeous, high-quality images.

Why the Change?


Mini sessions were never meant to replace the experience of a full family session. But over time, they became a default option for families looking for ‘quick and cheap’ photos—which isn’t what I want my work to be about.


Photography is about storytelling. It’s about capturing your kids’ personalities, the way you hold them, the tiny details that change so quickly. It’s not just about snapping a few photos and sending you on your way—it’s about preserving your family’s story for years to come. 


By refining my offerings, I can focus on creating **real, intentional experiences** instead of rushed, impersonal sessions.
