Holiday In-The-Box Mini-Sessions

Tis the Season


It's that time of year when we all get sick and hustle into the Holiday season. For a couple years now I have taken "In The Box" family photos during Christmas to share our family updates. The photos have always been met with such positivity. I always said maybe someday I will offer them to others but it is usually hard to keep a cardboard box from crumbling and falling down after 10 minutes of use. This month I made a last minute decision to build my own box so I can offer these really unique images to other family members.

November 22nd & 23rd

Join me this November in Pleasant Hills, PA for In-The-Box mini-sessions! If you want to stand out this holiday season with your family photo, this is it! Invest in a unique set of photos you can proudly display on your mantel during the holiday, the coolest card to send out, or sharing your family updates on your socials or emails and keep forever. 


INVESTMENT: $200


Each session is 20 minutes in length. You will be shown a gallery of 10 edited images in a digital gallery. You will be able to download (2) of the 9-box 1:1 images and (1) 4-box 1:1 image with your $200 investment. There will be additional packages to purchase at an additional price. Packages will range from $150-$300 extra. They will include custom Holiday cards, 10x10 canvas print, and additional digital downloads.


 

FAQ

 

WHO ARE MINI SESSIONS FOR OR NOT FOR?

Mini sessions are not for everyone in every situation. It works out great nine times out of ten for many, but with our limited time together, there is no time for outfit changes, special requests, props, or time-sensitive posing. They are not good for those who want to have a lot of options or variety in their photos. You might need more than a mini-session has to offer if you have young children who are stubborn picture-takers. Sometimes, it takes a while for a kid having a sensitive day to gain their trust before I can truly capture those magical moments.

Mini sessions are great for those who want a handful of really nice photos without being overwhelmed with an extensive gallery and whose budgets are $300 or less. You can trust your photographer quickly with their posing and expertise. Mini sessions are also great for families who need a quick in-and-out, fast-paced experience.

WHAT IS THE PARKING SITUATION?

These sessions will be at a house with a driveway. No need to stress about being anywhere busy downtown or unsafe.

CAN PETS BE INVOLVED?

Please let me know if you want to include your family pet. I will need to ask a handful of questions whether or not they can be included in the session.

WHO ARE YOU? WHY SHOULD WE CHOOSE YOU AS OUR PHOTOGRAPHER?

If you are still getting familiar with who I am, my name is Jess Thomas. I have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade in Pittsburgh, PA. I am most known and sought after as a birth/newborn photographer. Please check out my Portfolio of Work and my About Me page.

How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
We understand the anticipation of seeing your final photos. Our editing process typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the volume of images and the complexity of editing required. We prioritize quality and attention to detail to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations.
HOW DO I BOOK THIS MINI-SESSION?

Please fill out the information below. I will contact you to get you on the schedule. To book a mini-session, a non-refundable payment of $200 will be made when you sign the mini-session contract.

IS THIS ONLY FOR THOSE THAT CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS?

Absolutely not! I will have some decorations and props that will be more "Christmas-y" since I have them on-hand but I welcome families of all beliefs! If you celebrate Hanukkah or another holiday around December I may ask you to bring a few items that represent your culture and traditions to use!
