Timeless Portraits – Fall Mini Sessions in St. Louis

What Is a Fall Mini Session

Fall mini sessions are the perfect way for you to have updated portraits without committing to a full session. It’s short, simple, and beautifully guided. Each session focuses on creating images that feel as timeless as they look.

Mini sessions are ideal for couples, families, and professionals who want elegant portraits but prefer a simpler process. They’re also perfect for little ones with short attention spans or extra wiggly energy. The quick pace keeps them engaged while still capturing natural smiles and genuine moments.

You’ll receive five edited images that look effortlessly polished — perfect for holiday cards, gifts, or framing in your home.

This Year’s Sessions at the St. Louis Central Library

This season, I’m hosting my fall mini sessions outside the St. Louis Central Library, one of the city’s most breathtaking architectural landmarks. Its columns, grand arched windows, and refined symmetry create a backdrop that’s both classic and editorial. It’s a perfect fit for anyone who loves timeless imagery over trend-based fall color palettes.

Each fall mini session includes:

15 minutes of guided photography
5 professionally edited images
A beautifully architectural backdrop in downtown St. Louis
Easy street parking directly in front of the library — no long walks, no muddy fields, and no tall grasses to navigate
Investment: $195

👉 To keep the experience relaxed and personal, each fall mini session is designed for immediate family members only.

📅 Date: Sunday, October 12
⏱️ Available Times: 4:00, 4:20, 4:40, 5:00, 5:20, 5:40

In the event of inclement weather, the backup date is Sunday, November 2. Each session on the backup date will occur one hour earlier to account for daylight savings time. For example, the earliest session will begin at 3:00 PM instead of 4:00 PM.

By booking a fall mini session, you agree to the backup date in case of inclement weather. If rescheduled, your session time will automatically transfer to the backup date, one hour earlier to reflect the time change.

These limited fall mini session spots are designed for busy families and couples who want to look and feel their best. There’s no stress, no marathon photo days — just simple elegance.

What to Expect

During your shoot, I’ll guide you through natural posing so your portraits look confident and connected.
