2022 Fall Family Sessions Announcement

MINI-SESSION FAQS

How do I reserve an outdoor fall family session?

Sessions are available online here: https://bluedaisyart.bigcartel.com. Via that link you will select the location, then the date and time you would like, pay the session fee and you are booked!  Within 48-72 hrs, you will receive a family prep guide and be asked to fill out a brief questionnaire to let me know a little about your family.

Where will these sessions take place?

When you sign up for your family session you will be selecting by location. When you receive your confirmation you will find out exact location details. Locations are planned for but cannot be guaranteed. If weather does not permit us to capture your images on the date you signed up for, you will be given alternative options. If you would like to view the sessions available BY DATE, you can here.

How much does it cost?  What is included?

Your mini-session is $400 and includes a 20 minute session for your immediate family and 10 high resolution images via a digital download, with a print release.    Additional digital images and professional print products are available for purchase.  Galleries will be available within 2 weeks after session, where you can select your images. Your final gallery will include a download link to your images.

Why are these only offered in the evening?   Will you be offering these at any other times?

The absolute best time for lighting is in the early evening right before sundown.  For the remainder of the year, these are the only times available for family sessions.  I am available for newborn, baby & child studio sessions during the week. Contact Blue Daisy Art for additional information.

I WILL also be having some morning indoor Christmas mini-sessions December 7-11, 2022 too! Those will be available for purchase the first week of October and for those who book a family outdoor mini-session, you will receive a discount on a Christmas mini-session 🙂

Keira & Kimber | Springfield IL Photographer

When Keira and Kimber came in for some updated portraits, they had no idea the fun that was in store for them.   A few adorable headshots and a outfit changes and I brought out the fun…GLITTER!   And what little girl doesn’t love glitter.   We had lots of fun making a mess of the studio, which made for some adorable pictures.

Are you interested in incorporating some glitter into your little ones session?   Glitter sessions are perfect for kiddos ages 3 and up, so just let me know and we can plan that for your next session!

Christmas Mini-Sessions | Springfield IL Photographer

About a year ago, I had a crazy idea.  I wanted to thank all of my currently and former clients for their continued support of my photography business.  Whether I took their babies pictures 8 years ago when I was first started out or I just did their newborn session a couple weeks ago,  I have always valued the relationship I have with my clients.

After opening an exclusive facebook group solely for my clients, I invited them to come to my new studio for some FREE Christmas mini-sessions. You guys…it was AMAZING!  It was crazy, busy and well…a little overwhelming at times but I LOVED it!

I loved working with kids and families of all ages and it solidified the fact that I wanted to work with more than just the babies I have been photographing the past several years.

While I don’t think I could offer something like this completely complimentary again (I literally put in lots of money and time into this) I think that I may be offering some exclusive opportunities for sessions like these in the future 🙂

The J Family | Sherman Springfield IL Family Photographer

I have this incredible love/hate relationship with the fall.  I love pumpkin flavored anything, light sweaters, leggings and boots, crunchy leaves and of course….the fall colors.  What I *don’t* love though is the unpredictability of the weather.  Rain and colder temps can sometimes put quite the damper on a session.  After having to reschedule a few times, the J family and I finally found a date for their session late in the fall, however after getting to our location we all realized that it was a little colder than we hoped for.   The gorgeous color though made fighting through the cold worth it though (though I’m not sure their cutie 1 year old would agree!)   You would never know it from their images though 😉

The A Family | Chatham Springfield IL Family Photographer

When I was first starting out in photography over 8 years ago I was always practicing and taking pictures of my daughter and my friends children.   Over the years I went on to take lots (and lots and lots) of in-person and online courses and all the while I continued to capture the sweet little ones in my life.   I like to think that I have greatly improved while honing my craft and what is really neat is that for those kiddos that I once captured barely toddling around- I now get to see not only their personal growth in images, but also mine as a photographer.   This amazing family is super-special to me and I loved that I have been able to capture their sweet faces throughout the past several years.
