Well, it's been a minute πŸ˜…

I didn't exactly plan on disappearing from social media for a couple of months, but life had other plans.

This summer threw some pretty big curveballs our way, and if I'm being completely transparent, I struggled. A lot. My mental health took a hit, and somewhere along the way, I found myself pulling back from social media and photography.

I've spent a lot of time just trying to keep my head above water, and I'm finally starting to feel like I can come up for air. I'm not going to pretend I've got everything figured out or that life has completely settled down, but I'm working on finding my way back to a little more normalcy. ❀️

I'm still here, still photographing beautiful people, still creating, and still very much in love with what I do. I've just been a little quieter than usual.

So, hey there! Thanks for sticking around and for still booking with me even when I've gone quiet, I've got some catching up to do!

Meanwhile, somehow it's the middle of October and my annual Trick or Treat event is THIS Wednesday, 10/21! And Santa visits the studio two weeks from today! 🀯

One of my favorite (not so little anymore) clients turned 11 today! I'm in love with the vibe of this session, and it was the perfect theme for her :D She just saw Morgan Wallen in concert recently so it was a cool touch that her mom brought some of her concert photos to add to the setup :) I also loved her mom's idea to replace the L's in Wallen with an 11 - so creative! Happy big 11 Em!

Christmas Mini Sessions are live! https://book.usesession.com/i/uKppEWlT5 There is an outdoor option (for two dates in September), and 6 studio options - 2 each week for the first three weeks in November! Santa Mark will be in the studio on November 1st ONLY, and it's always such a fun experience! Sessions open now, and will stay open until into November (if something should sell out there is a waitlist option, but I've opened a lot of dates and times so hopefully everyone can get what they want!). MERRY CHRISTMAS IN JULY! πŸŽ„πŸŽ…

I wasn't able to get my Christmas Box Mini sets finished between sessions, so I'll post those soon! If you end up purchasing a session before I open those and you want to trade, I have no problem doing that!

Tomorrow is the day! Christmas Minis go live at 8pm July 25th :D The outdoor sessions will be in September and the studio sessions will be throughout November - but grab your spot early and have lots of time to plan outfits, arrange your schedule, etc! OH! And this year, I've decided that anyone that books a session during the opening weekend (so the 25th and 26th) will be entered into a random drawing to receive their gallery upgrade for FREE :D That's a $75 value!
Sadly I'm not able to photography this year's Santa session quite yet - but it's going to be amazing! I'm creating Santa's Office! I ordered a custom backdrop a little too late so it's not here yet, but I created this mockup so you can get the idea. I've been collecting so many fun antique office pieces and cool things to set around so it will feel like stepping into Santa's toy headquarters :) I'm creating a really cool Nice List book that will have the names of all the kiddos coming so they can search for them with Santa. They can also bring him their wish list and put it right into his office mailbox so they know he has it! This set will also be available throughout that week without Santa, and I'll still have fun things for the kids to do to interact with the set. Stay tuned for example photos once I have the backdrop!
I've also been posting reels on Instagram of some of this year's sets if you are curious to see them in video form :) I thought I had it set to post them to Facebook as well, but apparently not πŸ™ƒhttps://www.instagram.com/mandyringephotography
Minis run the first three weeks of November with two sets each week:
Week 1 - Santa's Office and Rustic Log Wall
Week 2 - Santa Fireplace and Gift Wrapping
Week 3 - Milk & Cookies and Cookie Decorating

Mermaid Minis have started :D This little 2 year old did so great! Her month-old baby sis was less than thrilled (she just wanted to eat the whole time haha), but we managed a few cute shots with her :) The outfit she wore was her big sister's Halloween costume!

This sweet little girl is possibly the teeniest baby I've ever held :) She was only 4lbs 9oz when she was born, and was just the cutest little thing! She gave us SO many smiles during her session too, especially while mom and dad were holding her

We are back from vacation and I think I've caught up on all my emails, and now it's time to gear up for Mermaid Minis! I have dates for these throughout the rest of July so every mermaid-lover has a chance to grab one πŸ§œβ€β™€οΈ Adults are absolutely welcome to join too (but you'll have to bring your own tail). These are some of my favorite sessions, and the only minis that I set aside a full hour for so we have time to play dress-up :) I probably won't be offering these again until 2028!
