Petite

A short morning update

$397

Up to 20 minutes · 10 edited digital images

Petite sessions are typically sunrise-only—Florida traffic gets wild once everyone wakes up! Maybe we’ll offer later times farther afield when traffic calms down. In Deltona, DeBary, DeLand, Osteen, Lake Helen and New Smyrna Beach, Petite sessions are available any time of day.

The person behind your photographs

Hi, I’m Michelle. We’ll make room for your real family.

Wife, mama, kid chaser and a straight shooter with a soft spot for a good laugh. For more than 15 years, we’ve photographed families around Orlando and Florida’s coast—and Michelle photographs every family session herself.

We’ll help with the location and outfits, give you clear direction, and adjust the pace when children need a moment. You can expect portraits of everyone together, smaller family combinations and the expressions that make these photographs yours.

Before you reserve

A few simple details before you reserve.

A $150 retainer reserves your session date and begins the planning process. The remaining balance is due 72 hours before the session. If travel, permits, parking or admission apply, you’ll know those details before booking.

Family-session galleries are typically delivered within two to three weeks. Additional images may be available through the proofing gallery, but there is never a required upgrade after the session.

Studio and seasonal offerings: Availability, duration and pricing can change by offering and are confirmed before booking.

Before you book

Helpful answers before you choose a collection.

How do we officially reserve a date?

Your date is officially reserved once your agreement is signed and the $150 retainer is paid. Until both are complete, the date remains available to other families.

What is included with each family collection?

Every family collection includes one approved outdoor location and high-resolution edited images in color. Petite includes up to 20 minutes and 10 images at sunrise only, Essential includes up to 40 minutes and 30 images, Signature includes up to 60 minutes and approximately 50 finished images, and Extended Family sessions start at $997 and include approximately 60 finished images.

Which collection is the best fit for us?

Petite is designed for smaller immediate families and is available at sunrise only. Essential is the best fit for most immediate families. Signature gives one immediate family more time for children to settle in, different groupings and approximately 50 finished images. Extended Family is for multiple households, even with fewer than 10 people, and accommodates larger groups of 10 or more.

Can we purchase more images after the session?

Yes. If additional finished images are available in your gallery, you may purchase extra download credits for $25 per image. There is never a required upgrade—you can simply enjoy the number already included with your collection.

When is the balance due, and when will we receive our gallery?

The remaining balance is due three days before your session. Most galleries are delivered in approximately two to three weeks and remain available for one year after delivery. Please download your photographs and keep your own backup before the gallery closes.

What if weather or plans change?

We understand that plans and Florida weather can be unpredictable. We monitor conditions carefully and will communicate if a location change or weather reschedule is needed. Because your date has been reserved specifically for you, cancellation and rescheduling terms are explained clearly in the agreement before you book.
