To say I have been busy the last few weeks would be the understatement of the century! In case you haven’t been following along on IG stories, I have moved in a new photography studio space located in Sylvania Ohio - YAY! I’m also in the midst of busy season, designing sets for Toledo Ohio Christmas Mini Sessions (those will be announced this week!), and trying to play catch up on editing a million galleries. I estimate I will sleep again some time in December!

I am working on this baby girls 1st birthday photoshoot and there’s just noooo way I couldn’t share these beautiful photos! We photographed these on their family Flower Farm, Apollo’s Basket. It is the most GORGEOUS location in the NW Ohio area - perfect for family photos!

I also had the pleasure of photographing this sweet girls newborn session at my Sylvania Ohio photography studio! She was a gorgeous newborn and she’s now an even more stunning baby girl! Having the opportunity to watch these families grow is one of the absolute best things about being a newborn photographer in Toledo Ohio! I just love photographing them year after year after year…gives me all the warm and fuzzies!

The great thing about being a newborn client is that it “grandfathers” you into being a forever client — what does this mean? Well, I don’t advertise sessions for little ones past their 1st birthday, however, I make a special exception for my newborn clients. If you are a past newborn client, I am happy to photograph them for their birthday milestones year and after!

Toledo Ohio Fall Family Mini Sessions

We had the most beautiful day for weekend #2 of Toledo Ohio fall family mini sessions! This is the only time that I offer family photo sessions and it makes me wish that I could do them more often. It’s already starting to look more and more like winter - I am going to miss these amazing fall colors so much!

Because my regular schedule gets filled up with newborn, maternity and baby sessions, I set aside a weekend (or 2!) in the fall for family minis. Aside from Christmas mini sessions, this is typically the only time that I offer outdoor family photography sessions.

If you don’t want to miss out on my next round of fall family mini sessions, I highly recommend signing up for my newsletter. As a benefit of being subscribed, you get early VIP access to mini session bookings! Since they are so limited, family sessions typically sell out very quickly - so I definitely recommend signing up!

Fall Family Mini Sessions take place in the greater Toledo Ohio / NW Ohio areas, such as Sylvania, Perrysburg, Monclova, Whitehouse, Holland, Ottawa Hills, Rossford, etc - many clients travel to me from areas of SE Michigan such as Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Monroe, Dundee, etc.

Toledo Ohio Family Photographer

I had my first weekend of family fall mini sessions and it was SO GOOD! We had the best weather, the most gorgeous location, and I got to catch up with some of my favorite families! That last photo is a pretty epic “the true reality of family photos” moment, haha! No worries though, we got some smiles too!

I only offer family sessions once or twice a year - I always do Fall Mini Sessions in October but sometimes I also do them in the spring or summer. This is the only time I do family photography sessions! My schedule is filled with newborn, baby and maternity sessions (which are my speciality and what I devote my time to), so I just don’t have a lot of room in my schedule to offer family sessions on a regular basis. This is my way of staying connected with all of my awesome clients! I especially love getting to watch my newborn clients grow up over the years. Many. of my past newborn clients are now 6, 7, 8, 9+ years old and it is THE BEST thing when I get to see them again for fall mini sessions!

Family Fall Mini Sessions take place at a beautiful outdoor location - I always try to pick a spot that has beautiful fall colors and foliage! Mini Sessions are done on one day and are scheduled back-t0-back in 20 minute increments, approximately 1-2 hours before sunset. I always offer my newsletter subscribers the first chance at booking mini sessions, so I definitely suggest signing up for that so you don’t miss out! They tend to sell out pretty quickly!
