FALL FAMILY FUN!
Fall Minis are BACK—and I’m so excited about this year’s locations! 🍂✨
We’ll be photographing at Kingsland Park in Nutley and Echo Lake Park in Mountainside, NJ. We used these locations last year, and honestly… they produced some of my favorite fall photos EVER. The colors, the light, the scenery—it was all so good. 🍁
I love the look and feel of fall family photos. The leaves help us out with color- but it’s truly the outfits you put together that sell the moment! I love when all of the elements work togeher! We’re going to have fun together- that I can promise you. No stiff forced smiles- just playtime captured behind my lens.
A little fall photography PSA: Mother Nature likes to keep us on our toes. 😂🍂
We can absolutely handle a little drizzle (and honestly, sometimes it makes the photos even more magical!), but we will not shoot in the rain. I intentionally scheduled the majority of these sessions for the afternoon because the light is gorgeous—but if the forecast is looking iffy, we may need to shift your session to the morning.
So, when you book, please plan to keep your entire day open if possible. This gives us some flexibility to move your session around if the weather decides to be dramatic. 🌦️
And now for my favorite part: Fall Minis are NOT “stand here and smile” photos. 🙌
These sessions are all about movement, connection, and having FUN together. We’ll walk, play, snuggle, explore, laugh, and let the kids be kids. You won’t be standing in a straight line wondering what to do with your hands. 😂
Fall photos are some of my favorite family images because they feel timeless and classic—but with my own imaginative twist. Think beautiful autumn scenery + genuine connection + a little bit of playful chaos.
Come ready to move, play, and make some magic in the leaves. 🍁✨ Booking details below. Be sure to pay attention to which location on which date!

IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR… 🎄✨
If you’ve been around for a while, you already know that I LOVE holiday sessions. I spend months thinking about them, dreaming up the details, collecting inspiration, and planning every little piece of the set.
It’s truly a labor of love—and one of my favorite things I do all year.
And to all of you who have been coming back year after year: thank you. 🥹 You already know the magic that happens here!
But if you’re new to the holiday fun, let me give you the scoop…
🎄 THE BIGGEST SESSIONS OF THE YEAR
Holiday sessions have officially become the biggest and most anticipated sessions I offer all year, and they happen every weekend throughout November.
The set is designed and planned well in advance, but here’s the fun part: I don’t have a photo of it to show you. 😂
Why?
Because I don’t actually know exactly what it will look like until I build it!
I start with a vision, a color palette, and a whole lot of ideas—and then, as November approaches, I bring it all to life inside my little studio. You can even follow along on Instagram and watch the set transform from an idea into a full holiday world. ✨
💚 THIS YEAR’S THEME: GREEN
This year, we’re going GREEN.
Think green holiday plaid, warm wood tones, bronze and gold accents, and cozy, classic Christmas magic. The set will feel less like a traditional backdrop and more like stepping into a beautifully styled little holiday room.
And because the entire set is designed around a specific color palette, you can have some fun coordinating your outfits!
Want to wear cozy Christmas pajamas? YES.
Want to dress everyone up in their holiday best? ABSOLUTELY.
Want a mix of both? Even better.
Green will be the star, with complementary touches of bronze, gold, and dark-stained wood woven throughout the set.
And of course… there will be HOT COCOA + TREATS after every session. ☕🍪
(Which, if we’re being honest, is usually the kids’ favorite part.)
These sessions are about more than just getting that perfect holiday photo.
They’re about the excitement of the season. The cozy moments. The kids being silly. The hot cocoa afterward. The beautiful images you’ll pull out year after year and remember exactly what this season felt like.
And I promise—we’re going to have FUN.
So start thinking about those pajamas, those velvet dresses, those little bow ties, those cozy sweaters, or whatever makes your family feel like you.
I’ll take care of the magic. 🎄💚✨
📅 A FEW IMPORTANT DETAILS
Holiday sessions are $100 for the sitting fee, with a sliding-scale option afterward depending on what you need and what you’d like to purchase.
Sessions take place every weekend in November, and spots tend to fill VERY quickly.
I will not be adding additional dates, so once the calendar is full, it’s full!
Reserve your spot, pick out those outfits, and then…
Let’s wait for the magic to unfold. 💚🎄✨

SANTA! I KNOW HIM! 🎅✨
He’s back—and this year, Santa Glen is bringing all the holiday magic to the studio!
Join me on Saturday, December 5th for a day of cozy, magical, 10-minute Santa Sessions designed to feel less like a photo-op and more like a little visit with Santa himself. ❤️
And can we just talk about Santa Glen for a minute?
He is seriously the sweetest, most handsome Santa around, and he has the perfect Santa energy. I absolutely love having him here, and I know your kids are going to love him too!
🎄 THE SET
This year’s Santa set will coordinate beautifully with our Holiday Family Mini set, so we’re carrying that gorgeous green holiday plaid right into Santa’s world.
But we’re turning up the magic!
Think plaid, presents, tinsel, twinkle, cozy holiday details, and a little bit of Christmas wonder everywhere you look. 🎁✨
It will feel warm, festive, and a little bit like Santa stopped by your house for a visit.
🎅 10 MINUTES WITH SANTA
I’ve made an executive decision this year:
We’re doing Santa Minis the same way I run my school photo sessions.
That means your child (or children) will have 10 full minutes with Santa.
And if your kiddo walks in and immediately decides that Santa is absolutely terrifying?
NO BIG DEAL. 😂
Ten minutes gives us plenty of time to let them warm up, talk to Santa, explore the set, have a little fun, and hopefully capture some genuine holiday magic.
And because kids are wonderfully unpredictable, I wanted the pricing to reflect that.
✨ HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
$100 session fee
After your session, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view your images and choose from my print + digital packages ranging from $35–$175.
That’s it.
No complicated ordering system. No giant investment required. And here’s the best part:
Even if you fall completely in love and want every single digital image in your gallery, your total will be $175.
Because sometimes you might get two absolutely perfect Santa photos.
And sometimes your child is ON FIRE and we end up with 25 amazing images. 🔥😂
Either way, you choose what you actually want.
Print a few for the grandparents. Grab digitals for your holiday cards. Choose a favorite for a framed print. Or go all in and get the entire gallery.
❤️ SANTA, BUT MAKE IT HOME.
More than anything, I want these sessions to feel warm, easy, and real.
I want the images to look like memories—not overly posed, overly perfect Christmas pictures.
The kind of photos you’ll pull out years from now and remember how little they were, how excited they were, and how magical Christmas felt when they still believed.
They’ll make beautiful gifts, Christmas cards, keepsakes, and prints to fill your home with a little extra holiday magic.
So bring your kiddos, bring their Christmas lists, bring their pajamas or their fanciest holiday outfits…
And let’s go see Santa. 🎅💚✨
Santa Glen will be waiting!
