all the magic of a holiday evening
Only in December
Every year we decorate our Christmas Tree with too many lights to count
We have a kid-led philosophy. Children learn best in a nurturing, child-initiated play-based environment that fosters self-confidence, trust, creativity, autonomy and acceptance of individual differences. Kid-led, means we take their lead. We let them set the pace, we let them express themselves and we let them have fun. It means you can relax and we can get the images you want. We promise, we are only done with the session when we know we have the images!
Our glow sessions can last anywhere from 15 to 20 min. We capture both solos and siblings together. Sorry, we don't include full family in these sessions as we need the glow of the tree to illuminate little faces!

You can expect to pay anywhere from $375 to $1500, depending on what you select! We do it totally differently, because we believe in making custom easy. Buy only what works for your budget and needs! Product is always sold in addition to the session fee and is always the same price, regardless of the session type.
As a full service studio, we don't send you a proof sheet for you to manage on your own. We have a time proven process that makes it easy for a busy parent to quickly (think 15-45 min) select the images and how they want to preserve them - digitally, album, custom framed or cards!
The price
Pesky Deets: Images are saved for 30-days from date of session, after which all unordered images are purged. Rush images are available for an additional $25/ image. Unfortunately, there are yucky people in the world who ruin it for everyone, so we do not offer a digital gallery for review, like ever.

all the deets
1.You need to bring the cake (for allergy reasons, we do not provide), but we do recco it's a mini, 6" cake with white on white icing (dark colors look like poo). Have the bakery use cupcake icing, it's softer for little fingers to dig into.
2. Never book during naptime, it never ends well!
3. Bring an extra set of clothes, diaper cover and wash cloth, fingers crossed they get messy!
4. Digital Images are delivered within two weeks of date ordered, so book accordingly if you want them in time for the 1st birthday party or if you want them on the first birthday!
