2015 Holiday Mini Session Announcement

 

It is that time of year!  I have all of my mini session themes and dates ready to announce tonight.  Booking went remarkably fast last year so if you have a theme you want do not wait to book it.  Booking will be in order of contact and will be held for 24 hours until a completed contract and payment for the session has been completed through Paypal.  These will be my only mini sessions for the rest of the year and all of the mini sessions will be completed before the end of November so that you get your completed galleries by the beginning of December for your Holiday cards.  I have some new mini session themes planned for this year and I am so excited for them!

 

Harvest Mini Sessions will be held on Sunday October 11th in my Winter Springs field location.  I will have an pretty assortment of pumpkins, apples, and all things Fall for these mini sessions.  The mini sessions will be in the late afternoon in 20 minute increments and will be $120 with a minimum of 12 edited images in a downloadable gallery with the print release.

Fall Field Mini Sessions in Winter Springs will be held on Sunday October 25th in the late afternoon.  The mini sessions will have my green velvet settee available.  These mini sessions will focus on the family and children and will not have a setup except for the settee.  They will be $120 with a minimum of 12 edited images in a downloadable gallery with the print release.

On Sunday November 1st I will be having Fall field mini sessions in my field in Baldwin Park in Orlando, Florida.  These will be 20 minute mini sessions with a minimum of 12 fully edited images delivered through my online downloadable gallery with the print release for $120.  I will have a selection of blankets and small chairs for the little ones for the mini sessions.  These mini sessions will focus on the family, children, and field and will take place in the late afternoon.

Saturday November 14th will be my Christmas Tree Farm mini session date for 2015.  The tree farm is located about 15 minutes West of the I-4 Sanford exit.  I will have a new setup for this session with an old white vintage chippy mantle decorated and setup in the rows of trees.  I am in love with this antique find and can not wait to use it!  I do not have a picture of this setup as it is new, but it will be so pretty in the field of trees and will be accented with red and white decorations.  These mini sessions will be 20 minute increments and will include a minimum of 12 fully edited images with the print release delivered through my online downloadable gallery.  The mini sessions will be $120 and will be from 2 to 5pm  Plan to arrive early to ride the provided hay ride out to my spot on the field!

 

My holiday beach mini sessions this year will have the same setup as last year and will be held on Saturday November 21st 2015 in the late afternoon.  The mini sessions will be decorated with my large tepee with white lights and gold accents.  The mini sessions will be 20 minutes for $120 and include a minimum of 12 fully edited images with the print release delivered through my online downloadable gallery.  The mini sessions will be in New Smyrna Beach.

A new setup for this Holiday season will be my Marshmallow picnic themed held on Sunday November 22, 2015.  This mini session will feature a hot chocolate and marshmallow picnic with a cascade of marshmallows as a backdrop floating from the tree.  It will be a cozy setup located in Lake Mary field in the late afternoon.  These mini sessions will be $120 and include a minimum of 12 fully edited images with the print release delivered through my online downloadable gallery.

My final mini session date for 2015 will end with my Christmas tree mini session in my Lake Mary pine tree location like last year.  I loved this mini session with the real live Christmas tree lit up in the park. These mini sessions will be on Saturday November 28th in the afternoon and will be every 20 minutes with a minimum of 12 fully edited images with the print release delivered through my online downloadable gallery.  The mini sessions will be $120.

Booking is open and spots are limited.  Spots will be given time spots in the order of contact and will be answered as soon as possible today and tomorrow morning.  Once a time is chosen I will send the link to the contract and Paypal payment for the session.  Sessions MUST be paid in full to reserve the spot with a signed contract.  In the case of a rain situation I will reschedule the mini session at the earliest date available.  I will only have extremely limited full session availability through the beginning of December.  My full sessions are currently $175 for the immediate Central Florida area.

I can’t wait to get this Holiday season started and see all of the lovely families that I have known for years and make some new friends along the way!  Please email me if you have any questions and to book at taramerklerphotography@gmail.com  I will answer them as quickly as possible.

Thank You!
