Christmas Micro Mini's Event 2013!

This year I have had quite a few inquiries to book sessions that I wasn't able to make time for like I would have liked. I hate turning down sessions believe me especially to family and friends! So I decided this year to make a set date for my first annual Christmas Micro Mini's event. I wanted to do these sessions quick and simple so everyone could get a fabulous updated family photo with a quick turnaround compared to my full session workflow.

I had a very specific vision in mind for these shoots. As you know I am a natural light photographer, I am uninterested in faking real life in a studio because life happens away from the strobes and backdrops! So once I saw this image (below) pop up in my news feed I knew I had to take a crack at getting that style for the sessions!

Unfortunately I did not plan ahead well enough to get to shoot at a Christmas tree farm this year (poo!), but maybe next year. I did however get extremely lucky and found a local friend with the SAME exact truck that is pictured above. Score!

Swoon worthy, amiright?

The mini sessions went fabulously of course! Without further ado, here is a look at some of my sessions from this year's event. You guys have no idea how thrilled I am with the way your sessions turned out. Thank you for choosing me to tell your stories and capture your images this holiday season.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas everyone!






Check back after Christmas for more images! Some of my favorites are being kept secret until after Santa comes! ;)
