session details

1 fun filled 15-minute portrait session
w/3 digital images for you to enjoy!

$300

Our Valentines Day portrait Sessions are 15 minute photo sessions with Melissa that include 3 high-resolution digital images (via download). 48hrs after the session, you will be emailed a link to your proofing gallery to choose your favorites from. As always, additional images, prints, albums, and wall art are also available for purchase. 

Please note: These shorter sessions might NOT be ideal for individual portraits of children who take time to ‘warm up’ in front of the camera (or those who are super shy around ‘strangers’).
