Winter and Early Spring Promo

Winter and Early Spring Promo

As of today (January 30th) my studio is still closed and I am not sure when I can safely re-open but my guess is not before summer. This time of year is always slow for me but this year, due to not being able to utilize my studio, it is extra slow.

So to entice you, my dear client, to give this weather a chance and maybe get some pictures with stunning winter sunsets and sparkling snow or even some Spring blooms, I am updating my prices from now until the end of April.

The Winter Special

Outdoor winter minis or porch sessions

$200

If you’ve booked a regular mini session with me you know we can get quite a bit done. They always end up being longer than I planned, almost like a full session but done faster. Not this session – this is a 10-15 minute session and it includes 5 pictures. I am keeping these short because while it may be pretty out – it is still winter in Chicago and it’s cold! But if you want a pretty family picture in the snow plus a couple of close ups of your kids or yourself, this is the session for you! These are limited to the Lincoln Square/Andersonville/North Center/Ravenswood Area! Porch sessions can be done anywhere on the Chicago North side.

The Winter Special Plus

Snow session, longer porch sessions, …

$290

These are slightly longer sessions, more like my regular minis. These are 20-30 minutes long and include all the pictures that turn out during the session (at least 10 pictures), so you don’t have to pick later! We will talk ahead of time how you envision this session – want pictures of your kids having fun in the snow? Some snuggle under a blanket pictures? Some more formal family pictures to send to the grandparents?

I am also going to start offering indoor hands-off newborn lifestyle sessions in mid February. Please be aware that this could change depending on the regulations made by the mayor. For these sessions I will be wearing KN95 masks to guarantee everybody’s safety. I will not be posing baby but I will advice you how to pose and we will still get beautiful and natural photos of those first early moments. Please send me an email for pricing.

Covid safety is of utmost importance to me. I follow all the guidelines and I expect the same of my clients. Rescheduling even if last minute if you notice any signs of sickness no problem at all.

And since it will most likely still be cold – please be prepared for these sessions and dress appropriately. I have never met a kid who enjoyed being cold. If you invision pictures of your family in pretty, light dresses, please consider booking a summer session instead.

I miss you all and I hope to get to see you soon!
