These playful 10-minute sessions are the perfect way to kick off the school year with a smile! Your child will get a chance to pose with a real school bus as the backdrop, along with charming props like a giant pencil, vintage chalkboard, and classic ABC blocks.
Whether it's their first year of school or they're already seasoned pros, these portraits capture this sweet milestone with personality and fun.
Sessions include a private online gallery where you'll choose your favorite 5 images to keep and cherish (with the option to add more if you'd like!).
Limited spots available — perfect for preschoolers through elementary-aged kids!

10/10 recommend! She did so good with our toddler! I was afraid he wouldn't smile but she got such good pics of him! We plan to soon blow up a family pic for our wall she did so good!
Kristy did a wonderful job with our photos. She was great with the kids and helped us all feel comfortable. Turn around time for editing was as expected and the photos turned out beautiful. We bought several prints directly from her and were impressed with how quickly they got to us.

Kristy was the best! We booked a mini session with her last fall and she did an amazing job. Considering we only had 15 minutes, the amount of pictures and shots she got really impressed us. Book with her without second guessing. We loved it so much we are booking another session this fall again.

6. How soon after the session do I receive my photos?
You’ll receive your photos within 1 week of your session!
5. Are there any additional fees?
There are no required additional fees! If you’d like more images, you can purchase them, but I follow a no-pressure sales model with optional online extras—no pushy sales tactics here! Extra digitals are $20 each.
4. What if I need to reschedule or my child isn’t feeling up to it that day?
I totally get it — little ones can be unpredictable! While session fees are non-refundable, I’m happy to offer options:
• If something comes up, you can reschedule your session at my natural light studio or on the bus lot (before school starts). The bus lot is open to us from 7am-3pm Monday-Friday. I’ll work with you to find a time that works!
• If that doesn’t work, you can apply your payment toward another session type (like a family, newborn, or milestone session) within the same calendar year.
I always want to make sure you walk away with photos you love — and a stress-free experience getting them!
3. Do you provide props or backdrops?
The backdrop is the buses located on the lot. I do provide ABC blocks (spell your kids name, grade, etc), a vintage chalkboard, and a large pencil.
2. Can I be in the photos too?
These are kids-only sessions. If you’re interested in a family session, feel free to reach out and I’ll send over those options!
1. Can I bring more than one child?
Absolutely! Each child needs their own session spot. When booking more than one child, you’ll also receive a complimentary sibling photo.
