Hope everyone had a great weekend! Trying to get a handle on my inbox at the moment and thought I’d post a scheduling update. I’ve been getting a lot of inquires for Summer sessions but unfortunately I’m currently scheduling for December for portrait sessions. :( I’m booked solid until then! However, I DO have a couple of spots left in each of these mini session spots:

July 18th- Child Mini sessions (Taking place in new studio/no specific theme).. 1 spot left
Although there will be no specific theme to these sessions, props and backdrops will be styled around your child’s outfit. Spots are $200 and include a 20 minute session and a high-res dvd of the top edited images with a personal usage agreement that will allow you to make your own prints. A $50 retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve the date. The remainder is due at the session.

July 20th – Vintage child shoot (girls only!).. 2 spots
These sessions will take place in the new, natural light studio. Although I’m not giving away specific details on this shoot.. it’s something I’ve been looking forward to putting together for some time now. It’s going to be a very vintage, girly theme that you won’t want your little girl to miss. :) Spots are $200 and include a 20 minute session and a high-res dvd of the top edited images with a personal usage agreement that will allow you to make your own prints. A $50 retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve the date. The remainder is due at the session.

Fall Family mini sessions (only family mini sessions this year).. 4 spots left (ONLY studio spots are left)
All outdoor spots have filled up but I do still have some spots available in the new, natural light studio! Spots are $250 and include a 20 minute session and a high-res dvd of the top edited images with a personal usage agreement that will allow you to make your own prints. A $50 retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve the date. The remainder is due at the session.

November 13th & 14th- Vintage Christmas child mini sessions (Taking place in new studio).. 8 spots left
I’m very excited to be offering some vintage, Christmas themed child mini sessions this year. These will take place in the new, natural light studio with an elaborate styled setup. This will not be a “normal” Christmas set up. Spots are $200 and include a 20 minute session and a high-res dvd of the top edited images with a personal usage agreement that will allow you to make your own prints. A $50 retainer is due at the time of booking to reserve the date. The remainder is due at the session.

Shoot me an email at info@taraswain.com to reserve a spot.

This was the first year that I offered Valentine Mini sessions and it’s safe to say that even after 9.5 straight hours and 22 kids, it was worth it. I had so much fun working on the set up and seeing all the kiddos’ faces. We had the mini’s at Girls and Cake in downtown Paris.. so we had LOTS of sweet treats handy. (Cupcakes and cookies to decorate the table AND serve as a treat after the kid’s quick little mini session for being so good.) I had SO much fun with all these sweet kiddos and loved the outfits their parents brought them in. A had some familiar faces as well as some NEW faces.. and I’m completely honored to have had people from 2 and over 3 hours away drive in for these. I apologize for the enormous post.. I absolutely could NOT narrow it down anymore than this… I had A LOT of favorites. :D
