With the bulk of the wedding season now behind me, I’m finally ready to release Holiday Portrait session dates!
I love, love, love that the results of these sessions end up as cherished gifts to grandparents, holiday cards to friends, and beautifully framed family heirlooms! One of the biggest joys I receive as a photographer, is to return to a client’s home and see the photographs I’ve captured covering their walls!
To start, I’m releasing October dates. I’ll release November dates in just a few weeks, for those who like to wait as long as humanly possible to start holiday card & gift planning! Trust me, I understand!!!

Custom sessions are 1-2 hours long, providing us plenty of time to gather personal images that tell the story of your family. For your session, I’ll come to your home, or you can pick a place you love for the session. We often end up with 100s of images for you to select from, while keeping the pace relaxed and the approach customized to fit the needs of your family. See samples of custom sessions here.
Custom sessions fees are $350 for weekdays and $550 for weekends. (Custom sessions in Napa qualify for a $100 discount!) After your session, you may purchase high-resolution images, with full reprint rights to use for your favorite holiday card or gift. Each digital image ordered is provided in both color and black & white and sepia! Custom sessions may also select from a range of additional products which include heirloom albums, image boxes, gallery wrap prints and slideshow montages.
October Mini-Session Dates
Sunday 10/24, Mini Sessions on the Peninsula | Central Park, San Mateo | Sessions run from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (see samples here)
Saturday 10/30, Mini Sessions in San Francisco | Golden Gate Park, SF | Sessions run from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (see samples here)
Mini-sessions are a great option for families who wish to take a shortened approach to a session with a lower overall investment, but still receive the beautiful results of custom photography. The sessions are quick, but you’d be surprised at how fun they can be! Mini-sessions are approximately 20-25 minutes long, scheduled every half hour, and typically result in 30-50 images for your review and selection. Image galleries are available 1 week after the session.
Mini-session fees are $149/session. After your session, you may purchase high-resolution images, with full reprint rights to use for your favorite holiday card or gift. Each image ordered is provided in both color and black & white and sepia!
How do I sign up?
Both custom sessions & mini-session timeslots go quickly, so contact me directly via the contact link & in the notes section, please indicate if you are interested in a custom session or mini-session, and the date that you are interested in booking.
