This year we offer mini and big fall family portrait sessions at Baker Beach, Cavallo Point, Tilden Farm (East Bay), and many other locations around the bay. You can also choose a session with custom location if you'd like to choose your favorite location.
Fall holiday mini session schedule is up
announcement
I offer a variety of pop-up & themed tiny 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 tiny sessions come in.
San Francisco fun Session Photographer
Our Pop-Up Tiny and Mini Sessions offer a quick and easy way to capture sweet moments with your little ones, family, best friend, or furry family members!
Available only on select dates, times, and locations in the San Francisco Bay Area, these short, playful photography sessions are perfect for families who want a few updated portraits and are comfortable with a faster-paced experience.
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 tiny sessions 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 big session. But in between, tiny sessions are a perfect way to update your family photos and celebrate the everyday magic.

tiny 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!

Frequently Asked Questions
Tiny Sessions include 3 professionally edited digital photos, while Mini Sessions include 5. You can purchase additional edited photos or upgrade to Big session to get the whole gallery.
Yes! You can upgrade your booking to a Mini or Big Session, subject to the available options and applicable price difference. Upgrading gives you more time, access to a larger collection or more images, but it does not change your original Pop-Up date or location. If you want the flexibility to choose a different date or location, a Signature Big or Mini Session is the better option.
Pop-Up Tiny, Mini, and Big Session bookings can only be rescheduled to another available Pop-Up session with advance notice. Rescheduling is subject to availability, and a spot is not guaranteed on your preferred date. Pop-Up sessions cannot be moved to a regular session date.
Yes, but you'll need to upgrade to a Signature Big or Mini Session and pay the difference between your original booking and the Signature Session price. This upgrade allows you to choose from the available Signature Session dates and locations, subject to availability.
Pop-Up sessions take place at predetermined locations, and the location cannot be changed. If you need a different location, consider upgrading to a Signature Big or Mini Session, which offers more flexibility in choosing where your session take place.
Pop-Up sessions run on a tight schedule, so arriving on time is important. If you're late, your session may need to be shortened to avoid delaying other families. We always do our best to help little ones feel comfortable, If your kids usually need extra time to warm up, we suggest booking a Mini or a Big session to allow them (and everyone) to relax and not be rushed.
Pop-Up sessions are best for quick, simple portraits with a small group. We can include grandparents or large group up to 8 people with Big Pop-up upgrade. However, for newborn photography, family legacy portraits, larger group of more than 8 people or sessions that need extra time and flexibility, we recommend a Signature Big Session so we can better accommodate your family's needs.
That’s normal. I’m a baby & kid-whisperer and we always get beautiful moments — even with shy, spirited, or wiggly little ones. The best plan is to bring your positive vibe and for everyone to enjoy the moments.
Typically 2-3 weeks after the session date. Rush processing is available for a fee if needed.
All of your photos will come with Mini Anna’s signature edits. I don’t deliver raw or unprocessed files because I believe every image deserves to be finished with care and presented as a little piece of art. Additional retouching (skin perfection/ blemish removal, body shaping, etc) can be requested. Fee varies depending on complexity and number of photos.
