What to Expect During Your Holiday Mini Session

Holiday mini sessions are the perfect way to capture the magic of the season without the stress of a full-day photo shoot (I mean, isn’t this time of year already stressful enough!?)

Whether you're seasonally updating your professional portraits, getting a standout image for your holiday cards, or simply celebrating you during this sparkly time of year (because yes, you deserve that), here’s everything you can expect from a holiday mini session with me at Valentina Portraiture.

A Warm, Welcoming Experience (Makeup Included)

Photography is experiential, and I’m all about making it fun. From the moment you arrive at my cozy studio just outside of Austin proper, my goal is to help you feel relaxed, joyful, and truly present. You don’t have to worry about knowing how to pose or what to do in front of the camera. I’ve got you.

You can expect a fun, comfortable and absolutely festive atmosphere that’s just as much about memory-making as it is about capturing beautiful photos. And yes, it starts with a 45-minute makeup session so you can feel truly pampered and ready for the camera.

Mini Sesh, Max Results

Mini sessions are shorter than custom shoots. They’re 30 minutes and include two outfit changes, but don’t let the timing fool you. I work with intention and a trained eye to capture a variety of high-quality images in a short amount of time. Immediately after the session, you will be able to select your two final images. All this for just $590.

Portraits Worthy of the Wall (And Your Holiday Card)

Even in the hustle of the season, a mini session is a moment to pause, breathe, and connect. It’s a chance to mark this chapter, capture genuine smiles, and create art you’ll treasure for years.
