CHRISTMAS MINI AVAILABILITY UPDATE 🎄

Here’s where things currently stand!

NOVEMBER AVAILABILITY
FULL | Tree Farm – November 1st
FULL | Rose Farm – November 7th
1 SPOT | Tree Farm – November 20th at 3:20 PM
FULL | Rose Farm – November 21st
FULL | The Vault – November 22nd
FULL | Jester Park – November 28th
3 SPOTS | The Vault – November 29th at 10:00, 10:20 & 11:00 AM
FULL | The Vault Micro Sessions Benefiting the McBees

At this time I will not be adding any additional Christmas Mini dates. I need to prioritize the post-processing side of photography to ensure I’m maintaining fair and reasonable turnaround times for everyone who has trusted me with their memories. If an additional date does become available, it won’t be until the first weekend of December.

This week I’ll be wrapping up my last October wedding and then I’ll be jumping right back into editing my fall minis and full sessions (starting with October 20th!).

If you’re interested in snagging one of the remaining Christmas Mini spots send me a message! Thank you for keeping this little business so busy and for continuing to show up and support me. I never take it for granted. 🤍

Happy Halloween 🎃

The micro sessions are FULL. Thank you so much for supporting the McBees. As much as I would love to squeeze in additional sessions, I don’t have the capacity to take on anything more at this time. If that changes, I promise I’ll let you know!

If you weren’t able to grab a session but would still like to contribute you can donate directly to Makenzie. I’ll share her Venmo information in the comments. Her time off will be completely unpaid and any support is appreciated.

Thank you for showing up, sharing, booking, donating, and helping me turn something as simple as Christmas photos into a little bit of love and support for a family who needs it right now. 🤍

The McBees are facing unimaginable grief and the last thing I want them to have to worry about is how they are going to afford the time and space to grieve.

After much thought about the best way I can help, I’ve decided to open up Christmas micro sessions on December 6th from 10:00 AM–1:00 PM at The Vault in Earlham. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the McBee family.

🎄 10-minute session
🎄 5 edited images
🎄 $65 per session

Payment is due in full at the time of booking to secure your spot. Payments are nonrefundable as all proceeds are being donated directly to the McBee family.

If you’d like to give more than the session price, additional donations are absolutely welcome. And if you don’t need photos but would still like to support their family, please reach out. I’d love to help connect you with a way to donate or support their family.

Available time slots:
10:00 AM BOOKED
10:10 AM BOOKED
10:20 AM BOOKED
10:30 AM BOOKED
10:40 AM BOOKED
10:50 AM BOOKED

I know I’ve said it before but I mean it every single time. Family sessions with adult children are SO special. 🤎

I’m a mom of many and I never want to imagine a day when I don’t have photos of my kids and me hanging on the walls of our home. No matter how old they get, I will always want to freeze little pieces of time with them.

Schedule the session. Get everyone together. Take the photos. You’ll never regret having them.

The Hess family was one of my first paying clients when I picked up a camera again last fall. So honored they chose to come back to me 🤍

This week's updated editing queue. 🤎

Current turnaround time is up to 4 weeks for minis and fulls and 6-8 weeks for weddings, though I work hard to exceed that. Thank you for your patience!
