In our 14+ years in business here in Chicagoland Marmalade Photography has photographed, literally, hundreds of families. No trick!!
We are thrilled to announce our annual 2019 Fall Mini Session dates! They’re “fun sized” 20 minute sessions in a beautiful, hand picked setting. We’ve been doing them for about 12 years and have become experts at capturing the beauty and personality of families and individuals (…AND PETS!) during these “fun sized” sessions.
These mini sessions are a great opportunity to do catch up photos your favorite little(s) in their cute (or spooky!) Halloween costume, what a way to get them really excited for Halloween and trick or treating. Many of our clients use these mini photo opportunities to create photographs for their holiday card and to create customized family gifts just in time for the winter holidays. Many of our clients use this annual check in to get updated photos of just their littles in between their regular full session. Many more just do it because it’s fun, it’s quick and it’s a nice afternoon out in nature.
So while the reasons to book a mini session are many you are guaranteed that these “fun sized” session opportunities won’t last long.
SATURDAY MORNING session times are: Saturday October 12th and will start at 8:40 a.m., 9:05 a.m., 9:30 a.m. and 9:55 a.m.
SATURDAY AFTERNOON session times are: Sunday October 12th and will start at 5:20 p.m., 5:45 p.m. and 6:05 p.m.
DETAILS: With your booking you will receive a 20 minute relaxed photo session for up to five people. You will receive a downloadable full size digital image for cards & gifts, a web sized copy for online sharing (so you can show off your littles on your favorite social media platform), a 4×6 copy for reference (and for display) and you can purchase additional prints, digital photos, etc.
You will be presented with 8-10 fully edited image poses in a private, password protected online gallery.
We will offer up outfit suggestions and tips for displaying your photos in an exclusive online client information gallery just for our clients.
We don’t believe in “one size fits all” posing or settings (or final products). We believe photos should be reflective of the love between family members, of personality and reflect a carefree attitude. We believe photo sessions should be fun, relaxed and memory making IN ADDITION to actually making photo memories.
Your family is truly unique, your photographic art should reflect how unique they truly are.
