Christmas Mini Session 2024
The sessions will be spread during November. Weekends only to accommodate everyone who have work arrangements.
The sessions are being held at the studio, you will need an appointment time so please get in touch to reserve your slot.
Christmas Mini sessions are for children of all ages; for all our small models they can pose with their parents or siblings. Full terms of the sessions can be found below.
The Rules
- We are taking a £50 deposit to hold your slot on the calendar. The £50 balance is due on the day of the mini session.
- As time between sessions is tight please arrive on time. If more than 10 minutes late you may forfeit your session. If you are late by 20 minutes, your session will be automatically cancelled.
- Up to 3 children per session. Please let us know how many will be joining us, and ages of the children
- If you want photos with cousins or friends etc they must book their own session next to yours and a few pictures may be taken in the switch over. However it is still a max 3-4 children on total in any photo.
- Babies must be able to sit unsupported or old enough to sit in a basket/armchair without their head lolling. If the baby can’t sit unsupported then they can pose with their parents or siblings.
- Please come with your children dressed and ready to go (If possible).
- Bring any meaningful items you’d like included. This is not mandatory, just an idea. Simple pictures are great too and our personal favourite.
- We make every effort to work with your family and kids, but we can not be responsible for members who are not cooperating/smiling for photos, this includes fussy babies, toddlers who will not pose.
- You are not permitted to take your own photographs during your session.
- Digital Images will be delivered by download via a personal online gallery.
- Extra digital images are available to purchase (£30 each ).
- Turnaround for digital images is 10 working days.
- In the event of illness, we will arrange another date and time ( this will be accepted as a once off ).
- We are based in:
Ashton under Lyne, Clarence Arcade
Stamford Street Central
Ashton under Lyne,

Our personal tips for successful session with your kids!
A few days leading up to the session practice taking photos with your kids! But DO NOT make it a chore. Just have FUN with it. Show them the photos immediately. DO NOT make them pose. Encourage silly faces and sad faces and PLAY. BE IN THE PHOTOS with them and be silly!!! If you can, have the camera or your phone on mirror so your kids, babies and toddlers can see themselves in the frame.
You can bring treats and bribes for children to earn during portrait session. All finished photos will receive editing, but not retouching or extreme measures such as “swapping heads”.
What are the best clothes to wear to a Christmas Mini photoshoot?
A simple, comfortable and well fitting outfits. For festive clothing, red, green Christmas dress or jumper or outdoor outfits are perfect.
For sibling photos, matching outfits are cute, but if you prefer different outfits try to coordinate them.
Think about your shoes! Often times we get all dressed up and then wear our torn up dirty trainers without even thinking twice. You may bring change of clean shoes to keep out set mud free.
Accessories such a headbands, scarves, favourite cuddly toys, can be a great way to use during your session.
