2017 Holiday Mini Sessions | Sarah Gray Photography, Tallahassee, FL

It’s that time of year again!  Last year’s Christmas tree farm sessions were such a hit and have been so heavily requested, that I’m excited to share the love and host mini sessions there again this November with a THIRD date at that location.  Each Saturday in November, I’ll be at a different amazing location in town, starting with the Havana Christmas Tree Farm.

Sarah Gray Photography | Tallahassee, FL, Holiday Mini Sessions 2017

These are PERFECT for your annual holiday cards, updating your family picture, and watching how your kiddos have grown since last year’s family portrait.  My style for these sessions is very casual.  I make sure we take a solid family photo, and each of the groupings within your family that you’ll want. Throughout the entire 20 minute session, I’ll be snapping pictures of little moments that give your final gallery that blend of portrait and casual  “lifestyle” sessions.  These will be a blast.  One of the greatest compliments I get from clients, aside from them loving their pictures, is that their session was fun!  A fun session helps your kids personality shine.

Our country turns 250 this year. I was in the middle of editing a gallery when that number actually stopped me.

I have four kids - 6, 11, 15, and 17. And I have spent years telling other families that childhood is fleeting, that these seasons pass before you're ready, that photographs are one of the most meaningful ways you hold onto them.

I've said it hundreds of times.

And then I sat there and realized I needed to take my own advice.

So this summer, I'm photographing all four of my kids in what I'm calling Heirloom Portraits. Not elaborate. Not trendy. Just simple, timeless portraits that show exactly who they are right now, in the year America turned 250.

Because someday I want them to be able to show these to their own kids and say, 'This is who I was that year.'

That thought made the decision easy.

I opened up a small number of spots for other families to do the same. Details are linked in my bio if this is something you've been quietly wanting.

I drove to a beach session in the rain once.

The whole hour down, I was watching those clouds like they personally owed me something. The family only had a few days at the beach house - no rescheduling, no backup dates. We had an indoor plan ready just in case, but I was really hoping we wouldn't need it.

And then, right as I was pulling in, the sky cleared.

Just like that.

We walked out onto the sand and the session unfolded the way the best ones do - easy, relaxed, full of real moments. That soft post-storm light hit everything just right.

I think about that drive a lot. The backup plan was real and we would have used it if we needed to. But the thing I keep coming back to is this: flexibility and a good attitude matter more than perfect conditions.

When families come in willing to roll with whatever happens, the photos almost always reflect that ease right back at them.

The clouds cleared. They almost always do.

This is the part I don't think gets said enough:

You don't have to have it all figured out before you reach out.

You don't need to know exactly what your kids will wear, or whether everyone will cooperate, or whether the weather will behave. That's my job to help with.

What you do need is the trip on the calendar and the people you love showing up.

I'll handle the rest.
