We don't do "mini-sessions" here!
Mini-sessions are great for a photographers wallet to schedule several families on the same day at shorter time commitments, but they are not so great for quality Family photos, which typically require some time with the photographer and camera to settle in to the experience before those legacy images can be created. This is especially true when using additive lighting equipment and not just a camera alone.
Your family is not a hobby, so your photographer shouldn't be a hobbyist either. With TPS, family sessions come with more experience than you will generally find from any other photographer. Four decades, to be exact. Every session also includes professional camera and lighting equipment. No session isn't without lighting from a softbox, even outdoors. We don't do this because we like photography, we do this because we like to create quality moments that are looked at on the wall and smiled upon repeatedly over time, because it never gets old. And why? Because it's just that good. It reflects your family's unique personality through individual expressions and character, and it is all produced with quality lighting and experience in getting everyone comfortable in front of the camera, no matter the age.
Quality lighting affects color and it flatters the subjects. Quality lighting produces catch-lights in the eyes, where natural light won't. Quality lighting added outdoors removes the harsh contrast on subjects that have hard sun and shadows on their face. It also allows us to shoot in any direction, great for more variety of backgrounds on site. And lastly, it allows us to brighten or darken the background wherever we are, just by being able to adjust the exposure of the lighting in combination with using Neutral Density filters.
Do your research and really look at different photographers work and you will begin to see the difference in the images you see. Meanwhile, feel free to contact TPS with any questions. There is never any obligation and once you decide on TPS, satisfaction is guaranteed.
