San Mateo Mini Session

I’m excited to announce the release of my mini sessions in San Jose, Palo Alto, Portola Valley, San Mateo, and San Francisco. Whether you’re looking to update your family photos, celebrate a special occasion, or just capture beautiful moments with your loved ones that you can print for holiday cards or holiday gifts, these mini sessions are the perfect opportunity. If you need something longer, I might be able to do a full session. Just be sure to reach out at marissa.hbphoto@gmail.com!

What Are Mini Sessions?

Mini sessions are shorter photography sessions designed to capture a variety of poses and candid moments in a brief amount of time. They’re perfect for clients who want high-quality photos without the commitment of a full-length session. I work QUICK! These are 15 minutes and are perfect for families with kids that have experience being photographed. For families with 2+ little ones with more energy, I recommend booking 2 timeslots.

Fall Mini sessions are typically scheduled back-to-back on select dates and at specific locations, allowing you to book a time that fits into your day.

  • Affordability: With a lower price point than full sessions, mini sessions offer exceptional value while still delivering professional-quality images.
