With a cinematic and sensory approach, Christine's photos capture the story of this chapter of your story. The images highlight the one's you love most. Your children, or partner, perhaps grandparent's or even the entire family. You'll stoll through fragrant fields, giggling, laughing, perhaps twirling or cuddling. Who says you can't romanticize your life?
The gentle breeze carries the sweet fragrance of a sun-kissed meadow of soft, dusky purple blooms with sage green stems...

This session can be tailored for anyone! The 15 minute timeframe is perfectly suited to little one's short attention, senior portraits, or for a couple looking to update their framed artwork. This is also a great session for grandparents (but please see the next question for information about timing).
Due to the shorter nature of this session, mini sessions are best suited for either a singular individual (such as a graduating senior), singular couple, or a family of 5 (parents plus kids or grandparents plus kids). The session can also focus on just the kids. This allows us to get one formal shot (everyone looking at the camera), an action shot (maybe walking through the lavender), and possibly an individual portrait of each person. For larger families, or extended families, please consider booking two, back-to-back sessions.
This is my first time offering mini-sessions at the lavender farm so I do not have sample images of this session specifically. Therefore, all participant's this year get a special rate!
