WElcome to your Mini Session 

At my desk where I write this to you, there are portraits of my two babies, the ones who taught me about love in ways I didn’t know exist. I want to be sure you have photos of your loves at your desk, on your walls, sent to your family, …reminders of how beautiful this life is.

Getting Ready: I keep things really low key, so my main advice is to have everyone dressed (or not dressed!) and engaged in a fun activity like hide and seek or catch just a few minutes before you expect me. Tell your family that your friend Anela is going to come photograph you playing and hugging and that I’m so excited to find out what their favorite animal is. Please if I’m talking to your child, try to give them space to answer me so I can get their attention and get a portrait of them. It’ll be fun and easy and you don’t need to curl or uncurl your hair!

Timing: Mini sessions last 15 minutes and are scheduled with just 5 minutes in between families so it’s important to be on time to make the most of our time together.

What you get: 15+ images, some in color, some in b&w delivered in an online gallery where you can download images and purchase high quality prints if you’d like.

What if it rains? If needed, I’ll reschedule likely in the same weekend or following weekend. If we can’t find a time that works for your family, I can refund you.

What do I wear? Wear anything that makes you and your people happy! Make sure you’re comfortable, not too hot or too cold. Avoid logos and neon colors. Here’s more about wardrobe.

At your session: I’ll direct you into a couple poses + games.  I’ll get a couple photos of you looking at me and mostly images of you and your people loving on each other. 

Thank you so very much for trusting me to photograph your family.  I love getting to do this art and am incredibly grateful for your business.  Please email me at hello@aneladeisler.com if you need anything!
