Summer and Fall Family Mini Sessions 2018

What is a mini session?

A mini session is a shorter version of a full family session.  Mini sessions are limited to 25 minutes and individual families with up to 6 people.  Because mini sessions are photographed back to back, I’m able to offer special pricing on both the retainer/session fees as well as your product purchase!

 

How does it work?

You will reserve your time by paying a retainer fee up front.  $100 secures a 25 minute session, $200 secures the 50 minute sunset session.  Specific details on location will be sent to you after your retainer has been received and prior to the session date.  After your session is photographed, you will receive a link to an online gallery with un-edited images from your session for you to review.  At that time, you will purchase the package of your choosing, and the images you select will then be edited. (Editing turnaround is 2-3 weeks.) There will be 4 packages for you to choose from:

Option #1
10 edited high resolution digital images
$ 295+ tax

Option #2
20 edited high resolution digital images
Poof box with 4×6 print of each digital image
$595+ tax

Option #3
20 edited high resolution digital images
Photoblocks 3 pack mini set (8×12, 5×7, 4×6)
$795+ tax

Option #4
20 edited high resolution digital images
24×36 Canvas
$995+ tax

Please keep in mind that your retainer/session fee is completely separate and will not be applied to your package.

You may purchase back to back time slots to increase your session length, however you must purchase a package for each time slot you select.

BOOK NOW

These will likely be the ONLY outdoor mini session dates available for 2018.  Please be sure to contact me if you have any questions before booking.

**Sessions are rain or shine, however in the event of extreme inclement weather, sessions may be rescheduled at the photographer’s discretion.

 

Sasha | Puyallup Newborn Photographer

You guys, I don’t even know if I can find the words to describe how amazing this family was. Dad is a photographer who mainly photographs weddings and events and pretty much all things NOT newborn photography related 🙂 When they hired me to be their daughter’s photographer, I was beyond flattered.  It’s always an honor to be chosen by a family to capture this special time in their lives, but when another photographer chooses you, it’s even more special!

Miss Sasha was so itty bitty.  I loved the color pallet momma chose for her session; the creamy tones and the purples were absolutely gorgeous on her. It feels like a lifetime ago when I photographed her session; I can imagine how big she must be getting now.

Harry and Alexandra | Seattle Newborn Photographer

Seattle newborn photographer, Dawn Potter Photography specializes in newborn photography.  Her studio is located just a few miles east of Seattle in downtown Issaquah and easily accessible from I90.  The studio is full equipped with everything needed to complete your newborn session.  We even have adorable little sets that work perfectly for twins!

I have had the pleasure of photographing several sets of twins in my studio.  Some have been girls, some have been boys, some have been identical, and some have been boy/girl.  These two, Harry and Alexandra were boy girl twins, and even though they weren’t identical, they sure looked an awful lot alike! I loved how easy it was for the two of them to cuddle right up next to each other and snuggle each other like they had for the past 9 months in the womb.  Their sweet little faces and personalities captured my heart from the second they came in with their two papas and their sweet grandmother.

I absolutely adored meeting this family and am humbled by the fact that they chose me to capture their special memories.  If you are interested in having a newborn portrait session in the Seattle or Tacoma area, please contact me today!

i believe...

every photograph tells a story. capturing moments that would otherwise be forgotten. moments that can not be replicated or reproduced. moments that that are unique in meaning to every person who sees them. moments that you can not get back.

a photograph allows you the opportunity to relive those moments over and over again. these moments shape the story of our lives, and everyone has a story to tell.

let me help you tell yours.
