15 minute outdoor session · 20+ high resolution digital images with print release · Images delivered via download link within 48 hours
The low-stress way to get your family's fall photo done, or any outdoor portraits.
Families, couples, kids and pets. Up to 6 people, +$15 for each extra.
Spots are limited and they fill fast. You pick your exact time when you book. All three days are at the Carleen Bright Arboretum in Woodway, just outside Waco. Parking details come with your confirmation. If the weather turns, I will move everyone to a backup date.
Add it when you book and it is one less thing to think about after the session. Choose one:
Tell me which date and time you want. I will confirm your slot and send the details for the $50 deposit, which holds it and comes off your total.
You will get an email with parking details and what to wear. A reminder text goes out two days before.
Fifteen minutes of easy direction, some posed and some candid. Kids, grandparents and dogs are welcome. The balance is due at the session.
A download link with at least 20 high resolution edited images. Download them, share them, print them.
Choose your Print Special (5 print units or the Holiday card special), or order extra prints and wall art afterward.
Your images arrive in time to turn a favorite into a holiday card.
I have been a professional photographer for 20 years.

All sessions are at the Carleen Bright Arboretum in Woodway, just outside Waco. Parking details and a what-to-wear guide come with your confirmation email. Solid, coordinating colors in fall tones work best.

For +$75 at booking, you choose one: 5 print units, a mix of sizes you choose from 4x6, 5x7, 8x10 and wallets, or the Holiday card special, which is a custom card design plus 50 4x6 prints.
Photography has been my full-time job for 20 years. I have photographed dancers at studios across Texas, families and couples outdoors, and commercial work for businesses, so I have seen what makes a portrait session fun and what makes it stressful.
What I have learned is that the best photos happen when people relax. That is why mini sessions work so well: 15 minutes is long enough to get great images and short enough that the kids are still smiling. I give simple direction, keep things moving, and let real moments happen.
I would love to photograph your family this fall.
October 23, 24 and 25 at the Carleen Bright Arboretum in Woodway. $175, with a $50 deposit to hold your time. Questions? Just email me.
