Mini Photography Session OR Full Photography Session: Which One Should You Book?
If you’ve wanted to schedule a photo session for some time now, you’ve probably seen a few mentions of mini sessions.
If you’re wondering whether mini sessions are better than a full session and vice versa, know that there’s no real way to say one is better than the other. This is because each option serves a slightly different purpose – it all depends on what you want to achieve.
For example, if you want to capture photos of your three children, chances are you’re already pretty strapped for time. Therefore a mini session might be a better option for you. Mini sessions are also ideal if you’re considering working with a photographer for a more custom session and you want to try out their services. Almost like a sample session.
If you need a larger variety of photos that follow a specific style, a full photo session would be a better option. A full photo session also costs more, so keep that in mind when planning for your session.
Main Differences Between a Mini & Full Photo Session
Here is a quick comparison of these two types of photo sessions. Keep in mind that this might differ among photographers.
Mini Sessions
- The location of the session will be predetermined
- A specific time slot will be made available and is a lot less flexible. The average mini session lasts about 20 minutes
- Clients can expect to receive a fewer amount of images
- Most mini sessions do not include custom edits
- Subjects will only be able to take photos in one outfit
- Since time is limited, only a limited number of poses can be used
- The pre-session consultation is brief
Full Photo Session
- You can choose a location for your session
- The average full photo session lasts about an hour
- Clients can expect to receive more images as the session is longer
- More options for editing the images
- The pre-session consultation is more detailed
- More décor and props can be included in the shoot
- Subjects can bring along an extra outfit for the session
- A wider variety of poses can be used during the session
Regardless of the option you choose, you can expect to receive beautiful photographic memories that you can use for years to come. Speak to your us about your requirements to decide what’s best for you.
