 “Enchanted” Mini Sessions

“Enchanted” – to fill someone with great delight; charm

I can't even describe how exciting it was last year to see the wide eyes of all the girls as they walked into my studio and saw all the beautiful dresses and crowns on display.  My "Enchanted" Dress Collection has doubled in size from last year! I'm so excited to have added 20 new dresses and 5 additional crowns!!!  Something new in all sizes and several couture dresses!
 

"Enchanted" mini sessions are fun, speciality sessions where girls can dress up in one of the beautiful dresses from my "Enchanted" Dress Collection (sizes 4-14) (or bring a dress of their own), add some accessories and feel like a model as I give them posing direction throughout the session. 

After the session I choose one image to artistically insert into a magical “Enchanted” digital background to create a one of kind composite portrait (see examples below).

Option 1:

$110 | 30 minutes | up to 2 sisters (best friend option only available with "Enchanted" Experience Sessions| choice of 1 dress | 5 specialty studio images | 1 "Enchanted" digital composite image 

Option 2:

$60 | 10-15 minutes | 1 girl | choice of 1 dress |2 speciality studio images | 1 "Enchanted" digital composite image


Option 1 galleries will consist of 6-8 images, Option 2 galleries will consist of 3-5 images, you'll be able to choose your favorite 5 (Option 1) or 3 (Option 2) with the option to purchase additional images for $10 each.

A $60 deposit is required for Option 1 and full payment for Option 2 to lock in your session and get you on my calendar.
