2021 San Francisco Bay Area Mini Sessions

 
Example of the Los Altos location.
 

If you are reading this, give yourself the biggest hug because you made it through 2020. [INSERT CONFETTI HERE] WHAT. A. YEAR. IT. WAS. With that being said, let’s put last year on the shelf and bring focus to my favorite time of year — FALL MINI SESSIONS SIGN-UPS! I’m so excited to see returning families with their growing babies, couples and meeting new beautiful human beings this coming season.

I should also mention this. While we were in the middle of a pandemic last year, all my Fall Mini Sessions sold out. By all I mean EVERY SINGLE ONE. Promise I am not saying this as a sales pitch. So, if you see a date/location that works for you, I highly suggest booking it immediately.

Before you book a session, read my FAQ’s at the very bottom!

All mini sessions include:

  • 20 Minute Session

  • 20 High Resolution Edited Images

  • Private Online Gallery

  • Digital Download

  • Personal Print Release

Weather conditions affects nature, therefore we cannot guarantee the location will look exactly as demonstrated in the example photos. We’re currently in a drought—locations may be drier than usual.

Fall Mini Session Season is Over.
See you next Fall!

A: 

  • First and foremost, do wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and good (including your child).

  • Avoid being matchy matchy.

  • Do color coordinate your outfits by picking 2-3 colors to work with.

  • Do wear solid colors that compliment each other or choose different shades of that color.

  • Do wear solid, neutral or earthtone colors. These colors work best in photos: white, black, ivory, blue (soft or jean-color), soft or deep brown, mustard yellow, deep green and gray.

  • Avoid wearing neon/bright colors.

  • Layers are your best friend.

  • Patterns work well, but keep them to a minimum or layer them with a jacket/vest/sweater.

  • These are professional photos. Please avoid wearing anything with logos or graphics.

  • Do wear shoes that are comfortable to walk in as we’ll be moving around plenty.

Q: Can we include our dog?
A: Depends on the location. Some locations, like Los Altos, do not allow dogs at all. If dogs are not allowed at a location, you’ll see a “No Dogs Allowed” note. If you’re unsure, email Rosa at hello@rosadelgado.com
