The MINI session lasts 60 minutes and begins with Michelle gently removing your baby from their car seat and settling them onto a soft white blanket for the first set of images. To keep things smooth and stress-free, babies should arrive already dressed in the outfit they’ll be photographed in. See sample photo above

These sessions focus on natural, lifestyle-inspired moments rather than heavily posed setups. Along with solo images of your baby, Michelle will also photograph parents and siblings interacting naturally with your newest family member. The goal is to capture real connection, tiny details, and the beauty of your baby exactly as they are in this season.

What if my baby cries the whole time?
Michelle can understand the concern for a short 60 minute session.That’s completely okay. Crying, soothing, and movement are all part of real life with a newborn, and they often add to the authenticity of lifestyle imagery. With over 18 years of experience, Michelle knows how to work calmly and efficiently with newborns—and while every baby is different, she’s never had a baby cry for an entire session. There’s no pressure for perfection here—just space for genuine moments to unfold.
