2026 Minis

I’ll be offering a full lineup of seasonal minis in 2026 — including Valentine’s Minis, Spring Minis, Summer Minis, Fall Minis, and Christmas Minis. Each one is short, sweet, and thoughtfully curated, with limited dates available throughout the year.

As the year unfolds, each mini will open for booking here on this page.

Celebrate spring with bold, colorful fresh florals in the studio. These mini sessions feature real flowers and are perfect for families, little ones, maternity, or anyone wanting updated photos just in time for Mother’s Day. Designed to be quick, relaxed, and effortless, you’ll walk away with a beautiful gallery that captures the brightness and beauty of the season. The studio setting also means a calm, comfortable experience — with plenty of space to relax, easy parking, and none of the unpredictability that can come with outdoor sessions.

Location: Studio Oronoco, Old Town Alexandria (105 Oronoco Street, Suite 200A)
Dates: Saturday, May 2 (10AM-4PM) & Sunday, May 3 (1-4PM) — additional dates may be added 
Session Details: Up to 15 minutes | 15+ edited, high-resolution photos
Gallery Delivery: Within 2 weeks (optional 3-day rush delivery available for $50)
Investment: $375 — Retainer: $100 to reserve, remaining $275 due on the session date

We recently had the most wonderful experience with Allison Heise for our newborn family portrait session. Just one week after our baby's birth, she came to our home something we deeply appreciated, especially during such a delicate and busy time. We’re so grateful to have these memories preserved so perfectly. 

Beautifully captured such a special, fleeting moment in our lives.

Our pictures came out beautiful, I am obsessed with them. Allison is so kind, sincere, and amazing with my kiddos.
