NOTE —

If your blog post's featured images are fairly low resolution, you may want to delete the top image canvas. Your blog will still look gorgeous, but the top banner section looks best when you upload an image that's 2500px on the long side. You can also use our fave TinyJpeg to make them small so your blog posts still load quickly!

Tips for a Successful Fall Mini Photo Session

To make the most of your fall photoshoot, a little preparation goes a long way.

1. Plan Your Outfits

Choose outfits that complement one another. Start with mom, choose the look you are going for and plan everyone else’s outfits around it. Layers and textures, really level up the overall look.

2. Come Ready!

Mini sessions run on a tight schedule, so it’s important to arrive early to get settled and ready. This ensures you maximize your time in front of the camera and everyone feels relaxed and prepared.

3. Communicate with Your Photographer

Discuss any preferences with your photographer ahead of time. If there is a specific grouping or shot that you’d like to get, make sure to share that with your photographer before you get started, sharing these ideas will help your photographer tailor the session to your needs and you’ll end up with photos you love.

4. Keep it Fun and Relaxed

Natural smiles and candid moments make for the most cherished photos. Engage with your children, play, and enjoy the session to capture genuine joy and connection. It’s all about those in-between moments!

I’m Meredith, a Dallas based family & newborn photographer, mother of three who is passionate about creating images that you’ll love.

Less but better is a constant battle in my life. With so much being thrown at us daily, begging us to add more and more to our lives, I find myself fighting against the urge to purchase yet another thing I don’t actually need. What I really desire is more meaning. I want to fill my home with furniture that’s passed down from my grandparents, memories from our travels, photos of my babies, and handmade heirlooms. I want to take the time to save up for something with meaning versus purchasing a quick fix. I want to add value to my life and home, not clutter.

That’s why I believe so strongly in providing a full service experience, from planning to session to heirloom quality prints and albums. As a busy mother of three myself, I know that you don’t have any extra time in your day, which is why I want to take the load off of you and put the quality straight into your hands – a cherished memento, a timeless piece of art to add to your life.
