Summer Mini's Info
"What do I need to bring?"
Your smiles! If you have questions on outfits for the settings, feel free to contact us!
​
"How do I pay the deposit?"
Once you fill out the form, we'll text/email you to reserve your slot!
​
"Where will these be located?"
Lake Buhlow's recreation area. If we have to move around the park for pretty views, we'll let you know!
​
"What if it rains?"
Being in the military, we watch the weather and aren't scared to get a little wet. But, we have an office located in Alexandria or we'll set up a good (sunny) day that works for you!
​
"Are you good with kids? I have fussy ones!"
Our biggest inspiration is my daughter and she is diagnosed with nonverbal autism. Between Luci and almost 10 nephews ranging from infant to 16, we work for smiles!
​
"I want to do a specific session but the date doesn't work or have a different idea...."
Just let us know! We can come up with a plan!
