Fall Mini Sessions | DMV Family Photography

July 28, 2025 Ginny Thomas

I can’t believe it either—but it’s that time of year again! The air is starting to shift (yes, even if just a little), and that golden, glowy fall light will be here before we know it. Which means…

Fall Mini Sessions are officially OPEN for booking!

These sessions are some of my most requested of the entire year—and for good reason! With the changing leaves, cozy sweaters, and all those “just one good photo for the holiday card” vibes, it’s the perfect excuse to get the family together for a quick update.

🧡 What’s a Fall Mini Session?

My mini sessions are short and sweet (just 15 minutes!) and designed to get those few magical shots you need without the pressure of a full session.

These are not your stiff, "everyone say cheese" photos. We’ll laugh, play, and move quickly to get those authentic, joyful moments—whether it’s the kids being silly, a quiet hug between you and your partner, or that one giggle you didn’t know would melt your heart.

DETAILS

15-MINUTE SESSION $249
These shorter sessions take place at one location
5 digital images included - option to purchase individual images or the full gallery: $49/additional image or $200 for full gallery

I know not everybody loves birthdays, but I definitely do! You should always take time to celebrate yourself - the good, the struggles and all the in-between of where you are in life; because here you are!  You’re doing it!

Cheers to us for 7 years! 🎉🥂! To the beautiful, full, chaotic adventure we are on together- wouldn’t change a thing! 💕❤️
@mizchynuhdoll & I are working on something new… and we want you in on it! 👀

We’re looking to photograph real connections.
The kind that just are what they are.

You + your partner 
you + your mom

The photos you’ll love later won’t be about the location.

They’ll be about:
how your kids leaned into you
how everyone relaxed halfway through
the little moments you didn’t plan

The location just helps make that easier.

We were just trying to break in cowboy boots 😂

That was the plan.

Instead…
it turned into this whole thing.

Laughing, being ridiculous, dancing… fully themselves.

This is exactly why I love personality portraits.

No pressure.

“What if my kids don’t cooperate?”

Probably the #1 fear of any parent investing in a photo session.

Short answer: they don’t have to.

Mini sessions aren’t about perfect behavior.
They’re about keeping things mov
I know this time of year gets busy fast…
and somehow “we should take photos” keeps getting pushed.

That’s exactly why I offer these.

Short, easy, no overthinking.
