So, now that you know what they are and what they aren't, you might be wondering how they benefit you as the client.

Mini -Sessions are a great way for a client to get to know a photographer and their work. It's a way for the client to become familiar with the photographer's style and approach. This first-person experience allows clients to determine whether they would like to seek additional work from the photographer.

While Mini Sessions are traditionally no less costly than a full session, they often include one or two digital copies of your photos, with, of course, the option to purchase more, should the client desire to.  

Another plus with a Mini-Session is that the photographer will already have a set location, props and even occasionally clothing, which removes any potential stress from the client. 

On top of the already listed benefits, the shorter time frame of a Mini Session also makes it easier for those whose schedules are already full of all that life can throw at us. 

These brief sessions are traditionally booked months in advance, which allows the client plenty of time to add to their schedule.
