AUCKLAND MINI PHOTOSHOOTS
Mini shoots are a perfect opportunity to update your family photos, for loved up couples, or for you and your best friends!
I have 3 dates available to book in different locations with limited spaces available, my mini shoots have always booked up quickly so don’t miss out. I am holding them in East Auckland, South Auckland and West Auckland. This is also available for any couples who would like an engagement photoshoot before their big day, bring your family (including fur babies!). If this sounds like something you will be interested in book now, or get in touch if you have any questions.
LOCATIONS: West Auckland - Muriwai Beach, South Auckland - Kariotahi Beach, East Auckland - Maraetai
DATES: 26th (Muriwai), 27th August (Kariotahi) and 3rd September (Maraetai) 2023
WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE: You will receive at least 30 images from your session in high resolution (print) format and low resolution (web-sized) format. Each image will be provided in both Colour and Black & White.
Reasons to book:
A very casual atmosphere, I will take a mixture of both candid (natural) and a few posed images. However my style is very natural so there will be more focus on this. Your partner and/or children won’t suffer too much haha!
A chance to get new or updated photos.
A smaller session is easier for children to deal with.
Very relaxed atmosphere, I will give you some simple directions to give you the best outcome from your photos.
Come dressed as you please! There are no rules, be comfortable. If you want some guidelines on how to dress I am happy to assist with this also.
Your investment is a fraction of the cost of a full session!
Mini Shoots are $259
FAQs:
How do I book?
Booking form is located below and is super easy. Once you have picked your session date/time you will be emailed with a contract to sign and an invoice. Please note - you are not booked until the booking fee or session fee is paid and you have signed the contract. If the booking or session fee is not paid within 24 hours your time slot will be opened up for the next person to book.
How long are the sessions?
Each session will be 25 minutes long. This is plenty of time to have a little warm up and get some great photos!
Can I bring my fur babies?
Please do! I am an animal lover and have had many clients bring their fur babies with them.
I have been wanting an engagement photoshoot but have not been able to book one, can I book a mini one?
Definitely, these mini shoots are for couples whether dating, engaged or already married.
I am pregnant and would like a few images to capture this special and important time. Can I get some maternity styled photos?
Absolutely! These sessions are for anyone. My photography journey started out in Newborn and Maternity photography so I have extensive experience posing beautiful mama’s.
What is the best time to book?
Any time that suits you and your family is best. If we are blessed with our amazing sunny Auckland days then if you are after the amazing golden light the 4:30pm onwards sessions will be the best times for this. I imagine these time slots will book out the quickest.
Can I bring my whole family, including extended family?
I am all about capturing your family as photos are one of the few tangible items you have for a lifetime. However, with a mini session it can be extremely tight with timings to get a lot of people wrangled for different group photos. For the 25 minute session I suggest your immediate family and grandparents, or favourite uncle/aunt. If an extended family session is something you would like I advise to book the first or last session and we can arrange a slightly longer sitting at a small extra cost.
Do you offer prints?
I love when clients print photos to hang on their walls. I work with a professional print lab to bring you amazing quality prints in a range of sizes. I will be offering all my mini shoot sessions a discount off print items.
What happens if I am late to my session?
Unfortunately due to the tight timings of mini sessions you will lose some time on your photoshoot, I encourage all clients to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to their session to ensure that you do not miss out on your time slot and get the most out of your photos. This also gives you time to get little ones sorted beforehand if you are having a family shoot.
I have young children and I am worried my photos may not turn out if one is not happy.
I have extensive experience with photographing babies, toddlers and young children. It is very rare that a child will not be happy for an entire photoshoot. Some good things to do before your photoshoot is to be prepared with some of their favourite snacks, and some of their favourite toys. Where possible, make sure everyone has had a nap and is fed beforehand, lets face it - everyone gets a little hangry from time to time!
I’ve missed out on a location/all sessions have been booked and I would really love a photoshoot!
Unfortunately my mini sessions do book out quickly. I will be offering more sessions in the future so keep an eye out for the next group of mini sessions. If you would like a photoshoot anyway please get in contact and we can book in a full photoshoot.
