Southern Village Porch Minis
I’m home for the holidays this year, so I’m opening a very small number of Southern Village Porch Minis. These are quick, relaxed holiday sessions done right at your front door. No driving, no crowds, no rushing kids across town. Just a short, polished session on your own beautifully decorated porch, with fast turnaround and an easy upgrade to the full gallery.

How it works
• I come to your porch at your scheduled time
• We shoot a quick, relaxed session with your décor as the backdrop
• You receive a private gallery to select, download or print your images
• Upgrade available if you want all final images
• If weather misbehaves, we reschedule your slot within the same week
How to Prep?
• Clear Amazon boxes, sports gear, and rogue shoes
• Sweep the steps. If you happen have pretty fall leaves, keep them, they look great on camera!
• If your porch has a dark overhang, turn on the sconce for warmth
• Pets: yes!
• Hot cocoa mugs: also yes!
Why Porch Minis?
Because they cut the stress out of holiday photos. They’re simple, personal, and fast. No loading kids into the car, no coordinating another errand during already overly busy season. Your own porch gives you a warm, personal backdrop without props or travel. Kids stay calmer, pets stay happier, and the whole thing feels easy. Southern Village porches photograph beautifully in late fall light, and you end up with clean, polished holiday images that feel intentional, personal, and nothing like the usual template minis.
