Adorable, Fun Family Mini Session at Poland Library in Poland, Ohio | July 18, 2019 | Youngstown Portrait Photographer

Donny & I so enjoyed photographing this lovely family at Poland Library recently! Their mini session featured 2 adorable spunky kiddos who were so behaved & smiley. They didn’t mind being little models for the day & mommy + daddy had them dressed to impress. They were also very mature! (Donny made a joke about feeling like he was taking high school graduation portraits haha) At one point, this little guy of three years old wanted to operate the camera for himself and asked several times to see the screen to make sure he was looking fresh lol It was so cute!!

We always like making our sessions fun so kids get involved. If they feel like they’re contributing & helping out, the shoot won’t feel like a chore to them! Their attention spans won’t typically make it through a normal hour long portrait session, so Mini Sessions 20-30 minutes in length are perfect for families! Short, sweet & effective. We always love them!

Enjoy these special little moments of this beautiful family! 🙂

*We offer 2 mini session package options for $150 (includes 20 minutes of coverage + 10 photos) as well as $250 (includes 30 minutes of coverage + 25 photos). Inquire for more information or book your mini session today! 🙂

“They were the BEST decision we made for our wedding!”

Kind Words

We are so happy with our experience that we had to yell it from the mountain tops! They made sure we got all of the dreamy photos we were hoping for! It snowed like crazy, but nothing fazes these two!
