Maclay Gardens has come alive with the kind of soft, pastel color that only exists for a brief, beautiful window each spring. It is the sort of setting that makes you want to press pause on everything – the packed calendar, the to-do list, the ordinary Tuesday – and simply be present with the people you love most.
That is exactly what I want to help you do on April 11.
This is a session designed for real families, at the most beautiful time of year
Maclay Gardens in full bloom is not something that can be recreated or rescheduled for a more convenient season. The color, the light, the soft floral backdrop – it is here now, and it will be gone before we know it. April 11 is a fixed date, and I only have 5 spots available for families to step into that setting with me.
When those 5 spots are filled, that is it for these spring petite sessions.
Here is what is included when you claim your spot:
- A focused 5-7 minute session at Maclay Gardens surrounded by spring blooms
- A wardrobe guide sent in advance so your family looks beautifully coordinated in this setting
- An online preview gallery where you will select your 3 favorite images for digital download
- Photos delivered within 2 weeks of your session date, ready to share, print, and display in your home
Your total investment is $275, with a $150 retainer due at booking to secure your spot and the remaining $125 due 7 days before your session.
One more thing worth considering before you book
When you see your full gallery, you may find yourself wanting more than 3 images – and that is a wonderful problem to have. If you choose to upgrade to your full gallery of 5-10 images after your session, that option is available for $200. But if you decide now, before your session date, you can add the full gallery upgrade for $100 off – a meaningful savings for images you will treasure for years to come.
It is entirely your choice, and there is no pressure either way. I just want you to know the option exists so you can make the decision that feels right for your family.
If you have been wanting to work together and have been waiting for the right moment, this is a lovely one. A short, joyful session, a stunning spring setting, and a simple, accessible investment – it really does not get much easier than this.
I would love to photograph your family among the blooms.
