Christmas Minis 2022
Updated: Nov 11, 2022
I am offering several Ahmazing Christmas mini options this year! This blog post has all the information and how to book!
Christmas mini general information
This year to book you must pay a $100 NON REFUNDABLE booking fee! We have decided to start our own charity this year helping children get Christmas presents. Your booking fee will go directly to our charity to purchase gifts for children in need. Which means your deposit is non refundable if you cannot make your session you will forfeit your $100. Gift cards can be used for the remaining session amount due the day of the session, not for booking your spot.
This year we have Santa as an option which means pricing for sessions will be varied this year. So scroll below to each set up and you will see pricing, dates and how to book for each set up!!
YOU MUST come back 14-20 days after your session for an IN STUDIO viewing of your images!
Everyone is guaranteed their viewings by December 1st!! I will put up an edit list every couple of days for you to follow along on your photos editing process! Sneak Peeks will only be showed if you allow it. Some clients like to keep their photos a secret till cards go out so I will ask everyone if they want a sneak peek or not.
To book: Once you have decided which set up you want to do just message me which set up and which time slot you would like. I will be answering emails in order of time they come in. I HIGHLY SUGGEST messaging me through Facebook since my email is slower. Facebook.com/Ohanaphotographyas. Once you hear from me letting you know it's still open I will ask for a deposit of $100 through Paypal Friends and Family Option or you can drop cash off at the studio. If you want to pay half or in full you can I will write down whatever you pay!! Then once you have paid the deposit I will update this blog post and put your name under the date and time. I will also send over a Christmas planning to fill out. So that I can plan your Christmas mini session.

Tips, Outfits and Ideas for this set up!
This backdrop is perfect for your kids to visit with Santa. I would say up to 5 kids with Santa is the perfect number. This is a get what you get situation though. These minis are stacked so if you kid screams and cries then those are the photos you get. I have several poses though for kids who are afraid of Santa. I have a rocking horse they can sit on if afraid of Santa as well. Just know though these are mini sessions stacked so 15 minutes is all you get. When it comes to outfits you can go super formal all the way to adorable matching pajamas! I love colors like red, green, gold, black, silver. You really cannot go wrong with any outfit choice on this backdrop. If you go formal put the boys in little black suits or white shirts and black suspenders. Put your girls in gorgeous red, green or gold dresses! This is a pretty neutral drop with TONS of color choices!!!

Tips, outfits and ideas for this set up!
This set up is perfect for families large or small! I can fit up to 8 on this backdrop. This backdrop would be my choice for older kids. This set up is not interactive or fun for my crazy toddlers. I would not choose this backdrop if I had toddlers. Outfit wise I say outdoor would be adorable. However, formal could also be an option for this backdrop! I wouldn't do pajamas in this set up. I would steer away from a ton of green but some green would be ok. You can even go Boho crazy if you want for this set up!! Reds, gold, black, cream, maroon, mustard, burnt orange all great colors for this set up! Below are some outfit ideas!

Information and how to book Hot Cocoa Minis
I have been doing these hot coco minis for a couple of years now. The video above was last years backdrop. This year I changed to a fresh new backdrop and set up. However the coco fun is still the same. I do use real hot coco for these sessions and giant marshmallows! Your kiddos needs to be fully sitting on their own for safety in the mug. They must be under the age of 2. It's really perfect for kiddos who are one!
All you have to bring to these sessions is your kiddo and a swim diaper if you do not want them to do the session nude. The cup is filled with warm water ( you decide the temp) as well as hot cocoa and large marshmallows. The studio has some headbands however feel free to bring your own!! You must come to the studio when your photos are done to get them. There is no online viewing option. I did 16 kiddos in this cup last year and only one kiddo hated it! Most kids adored the water and eating the giant marshmallows!
These sessions can be booked weekdays from October 1st to November 11th. I will have a limited amount of these so booking early is important! Just message me to book!
