I’m so excited to bring back my Blossom Minis, a seasonal favourite set among over 50 cherry blossom trees on a stunning private property. These short and sweet sessions are the perfect way to celebrate the beauty of spring and freeze a moment in time with the people you love most.
Whether you're after family portraits, a sweet motherhood moment, branding content, maternity photos, or even a snuggle with your pup under the petals, this is for you.

WEATHER & BACK UP DATES
If it’s just light rain, we’ll still go ahead — the blossom location has some sheltered spots. In the case of heavy rain, we’ll reschedule to another day while the blossoms are still at their best. I keep the number of sessions limited so we have flexibility for weather changes.
Each session is 20 minutes, so short and sweet! Perfect for keeping kids (and partners!) engaged.
I have three packages you can choose from 5,10 and all images, perfect for every budget!
Yes! Well-behaved dogs are welcome. Just let me know beforehand so we can plan for them.
Light rain? We’ll still shoot, there’s some shelter at the location. If it’s very wet, we’ll find another time the following week.
These sessions are designed for smaller groups (immediate family, couple, or solo), if you’d like to bring more people then book two sessions.
You’ll receive my full What to Wear Guide after booking, but in short , soft, light colours photograph beautifully with blossoms.
