Who TM Christmas Mini Sessions Are Best For
Christmas mini sessions are a good fit if you want:
- holiday card photos
- updated family photos before the end of the year
- a short and simple portrait session
- a festive seasonal look
- a handful of meaningful images without a full session
They are not the best fit for extended family groupings, newborn-specific setups, multiple outfit changes, or families who want a slower, fully customized experience.
If you need more time or flexibility, a full Family Session may be the better fit.
When Do Christmas Mini Sessions Open?
Christmas mini sessions for 2026 are now open for booking.
This year’s holiday options include tree farm mini sessions on November 22 and in-studio Christmas mini sessions on December 5. Because sessions are offered on select dates, booking early gives you the best chance of choosing the option that works best for your family.
Are Christmas Mini Sessions Good for Holiday Cards?
Yes. Christmas mini sessions are one of the easiest ways to create polished images for holiday cards without scheduling a full portrait session.
Because holiday cards take time to design, order, and mail, booking early gives you more breathing room before the season gets busy.
