I offer year-round mini sessions for families who are looking for short and sweet sessions that celebrate seasons, holidays or just because. These short and sweet shoots are perfect for capturing your family’s love, laughter, and growing personalities — without the stress.
Sometimes all you need are a few fresh photos to update your gallery wall — something quick, easy, and joyful. That’s where mini sessions come in.
San Francisco Mini Session Photographer
Each session is 20 minutes long, held on a specific date at a pre-selected location. I take care of all the planning and prep, so all you have to do is show up and enjoy the moment.
Over the years, I’ve learned how to connect with kids quickly — even the shy ones — and bring out genuine smiles in no time. While minis are a fantastic option, I like to think of them as a fun addition to your photo journey, not a full replacement.
Big milestones like maternity or newborns deserve the time and care of a full session. But in between, mini sessions are a perfect way to update your family photos and celebrate the everyday magic.

Mini Sessions that are fun, easy & beautiful.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Anna, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She’s incredibly friendly, patient, and truly great with kids—she made everyone feel comfortable and captured such natural, beautiful moments. I’ll definitely be booking her again for our next family photo shoot!

I just finished looking at my gallery and all I can say is I'M BLOWN AWAY!!! Anna captured our family's spirit while also capturing the light in our family portrait session. She's an absolutely magical photographer!!! Not only that, she was super lovely to work with. She helped us find the perfect location that fit our family's style, and once on location she stuck the perfect balance of creating shots while also making us feel comfortable. This is with the added challenge that we have a 3 year old who doesn't know how to look at the camera and a 7 year old who just wants to pose. Everyone in the family looked great, and we'll cherish these photos for decades to come. 11/10, would recommend!
