Limited Edition Portrait Sessions
Duration and Scope: Similar to Mini Sessions, however, Limited Edition sessions are special events that occur annually and are available for a limited time. These sessions often last 45 minutes and are themed with unique backdrops or props not available in regular sessions.
Ideal For:
- Clients wanting a unique, themed experience (e.g., holiday themes, seasonal scenery outdoors)
- Individuals or families looking for something special and out of the ordinary
Benefits:
- Special memories: Perfect for capturing one-of-a-kind moments with your family

- Ordering Convenience: 15 – 20 Minute ordering appointment at a later date
Considerations:
- Limited time offer means you need to book quickly as they always sell out
- Similar cost as a Mini Session: Packages can vary depending on what’s included (image amount and products)
- Immediate family members only (e.g., Excludes Grandparents, Aunts/Uncles, Friends).
- Want to include someone outside of your immediate family? Simply book back to back sessions and we can photograph a variety of group images in between.
