You Customize It!
You can select a weekday in September, November, or December, or choose a weekend after December 7, 2025, with a specific location in mind. The location must be within a 10-mile radius of 22102 (please provide details if it’s farther). Most mini sessions are held on Saturdays, weather permitting. If a Saturday is rained out, the following Sunday will be used as a backup, which means a limited number of Sundays may become available. While I can't guarantee Sunday availability before December 7, you're welcome to inquire. Weekday sessions are still the most flexible option. We’ll collaborate on wardrobe and session concepts during your pre-consultation to ensure everything is styled and planned to perfection.
To get started, simply fill out the form on our website or email your ideas to hi@contempokidsphoto.com. We’ll coordinate to find a date that works for both of us. Don’t miss out! This offer ends on December 18, 2025.
