The Magic of Autumn Family Sessions: Mini vs. Standard – What’s the Best Fit for You?
As the leaves turn golden and the soft autumn light wraps around us, there’s no better time to capture beautiful family moments outdoors. Autumn offers a stunning, natural backdrop—perfect for creating timeless family portraits. Whether you’re looking for a few updated shots for your family gallery or want to document your family’s story in a more detailed way, I offer two types of autumn sessions: Mini Sessions and Standard Sessions.
Both options have their unique advantages, and in this post, I’ll walk you through the key differences to help you decide which is the best fit for you.
Mini Autumn Sessions – Quick, Simple, and Sweet
Mini sessions are perfect for those who want a quick, fuss-free experience with just enough time to capture a few precious moments. Here’s what you can expect:
Photographer Selects the Photos: In mini sessions, I select the best 3 photos for you, ensuring you get the highlights of the session without having to choose.
Limited Variety in Poses: Due to the shorter time frame (usually around 20-30 minutes), the number of poses is more limited. The focus is on efficiency, with a few key family poses to capture your autumn moments.
Ideal for Annual Family Updates: Mini sessions are great for families who want a yearly update for their photo albums or gallery walls, especially to show how the kids have grown from year to year.
Mini sessions are perfect if you want a taste of professional photography without committing to a full, longer session. They’re quick, beautiful, and budget-friendly, giving you just enough images to treasure this autumn season.
Standard Autumn Sessions – A Full Storytelling Experience
For families looking for a deeper, more personalized experience, standard sessions offer the full spectrum of creativity and flexibility. Here’s what you can expect from a standard session:
Client Selects the Photos: You’ll have the chance to select your favorite images from the session if you opt for a smaller package, or receive the entire gallery with a larger package. This gives you full control over the final selection, ensuring every photo you receive is exactly what you want.
Wide Range of Poses: With more time (typically 1-2 hours), there’s room for variety. We’ll capture individual portraits of each family member, group shots, and lots of candid moments. This diversity ensures you get a rich, full gallery of images.
Telling Your Family’s Story: Standard sessions allow for a more relaxed experience, with time to explore different locations, change poses, and capture your family’s dynamic in detail. Each session unfolds like a story, creating a collection of images that naturally flow together—ideal for crafting a beautiful photo album.
If you want to invest in a session that feels like an adventure, documenting your family in a way that is both artistic and personal, a standard session is the perfect choice.
Which Session is Right for You?
Choosing between a mini session and a standard session comes down to your needs and the kind of experience you’re looking for. If you’re after a few stunning images to update your family gallery or if time is a factor, mini sessions are ideal. They’re a quick and affordable way to capture seasonal memories. However, if you want a more detailed, storytelling experience with plenty of variety, a standard session offers the opportunity to capture everything from candid moments to formal family portraits.
