Fall 2023 Mini Sessions are in the Air

Proof or it didn’t happen, right? We vote yes – photo proof!

Kids are back in school, routine has picked back up, sports are full steam ahead…including a Bills home opener WIN, and the air is crisp in the morning. Fall has arrived in Western New York, and we are here for it. With that comes our annual Fall Mini Family Portrait Sessions – back with a hybrid scheduling option to make it easier to find a time that fits your family’s busy schedule. Don’t miss a chance to capture the beauty of the autumn season, but more importantly, the beauty of your family in this season of life.


IMPORTANT BOOKING NOTE: Please read carefully! As you’ll read below, we have three separate options for Fall Mini Sessions but ONE booking link. When you click the link to reserve your session, you’ll be prompted to choose one of the three options we have outlined. Please book ONLY on the date(s) associated with your selection. The Client’s Choice option is available during the week (10/9-10/13), Northtowns/Central is available on Saturday (10/14) only, and Southtowns is available on Sunday (10/15) only. If you book an option on a mismatched date, your session will be canceled, and you will need to rebook. Thank you for your understanding.

We have three different options for our 20-minute sessions. Which one will you choose?

First, a “Client’s Choice” option is available during the week – Monday, October 9th through Friday, October 13th with the flexibility to choose any location that suits your family best. It could be your home, your backyard, a park nearby, an urban location, a rural location – tell us where to go and we’ll meet you there. Monday is Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples’ Day so we have morning, afternoon, and early evening availability. Tuesday through Friday we have afternoon and early evening availability only. We are offering a $40 discount on these sessions! Ready to book? Choose CLIENT’S CHOICE here.


Second, a “Northtowns/Central” option on Saturday, October 14th ONLY. This option will operate like our traditional mini sessions with back-to-back time slots at a singular location starting in the morning and concluding in the early evening. Since we are eliminating the need to travel between locations with this setup, we are offering a $50 discount to clients booking one of these sessions. We are returning to a Lovely Day favorite – Wilkeson Pointe at Buffalo’s Outer Harbor. It’s the perfect combination of water views and greenery with a less traditional autumn backdrop. If this sounds up your alley: Choose WILKESON POINTE here.


Third, a “Southtowns” option on Sunday, October 15th ONLY. Don’t worry, Bills fans, the game is at 8:20 p.m. We planned strategically because we’ll be glued to the game, too. As with the Northtowns location, these mini sessions will be back-to-back time slots at a singular location starting in the morning and wrapping up before sunset in the early evening. The same $50 discount will be applied to clients booking one of these sessions. We’ll host these Mini Sessions at an old-faithful location: Knox Farm State Park in East Aurora, NY. If you are looking for a more traditional fall backdrop – a rural and rustic feel with changing leaves on beautiful trees – this is it. Ready to book? Choose KNOX FARM STATE PARK here.


We hope to see you in October!
