Holiday Mini Sessions In Virginia Beach
I looked all year for a classic truck for Christmas mini sessions. I contact MOPAR clubs, Hot Rot Clubs, Coffee & Cars on Facebook, I DM’d people on Instagram. Not one single lead in all of Hampton Roads (not surprised about that last tho tbh)
In a last ditch effort I posted it on Next Door… and would you believe I got TWO hits and one was in my own neighborhood!
We set up at Great Neck Park – don’t want to put a ton of miles on the truck! It was also super convenient for my husband to bring me lunch! It was by far my biggest day of session yet with 20 families!
And the wind blew the trees over once or twice.. emergency plate weight delivery also happened!
My own surprise I was not pooped at the end of the day. The afternoon had several breaks and working with people is just my jam! I was so pumped. My cup was filled!
If you missed Christmas Truck Minis, don’t worry! I have a Waitlist just for you!
Mini sessions are 15-20 minute sessions
More time does not equal more value because more time never made anyone cry less, or have more fun! Weather your kids are grown and cooperative, or super young and uncooperative, its perfect for simple updated family photos, cake smash, maternity, high school seniors, milestones, or Christmas card shots!
Yes! 15 minutes is enough!
More time is not more value. My mission is to leave you asking, “That’s it?!”
Fast. Fun. Done.
Dad is going to be pleased and you’re going to be shocked I got so many happy faces so quickly!
They happen at pre-determined dates and locations.
Get on the Waitlist now to get them in your inbox as soon as they’re released! Be sure to drag it to your primary inbox so you don’t miss it!
Mini sessions happen roughly once a quarter, sometimes more often in the busy seasons.
