FREE Halloween Mini Sessions for Charity 2022 — Palatine and Chicago Area Baby and Child Photographer

Our 8th Annual FREE Halloween Mini Sessions for Charity 2022 event is coming soon!  We will be donating nonperishable food and household items to the Palatine Food Pantry like we did the last few years!  I’m so excited to offer another FREE Mini Session and excited about all of the wonderful things we were able to donate last year!  Thank you again to all that participated in our fun event!

Here is the backdrop for this year’s session.

Below are 3 reasons why you don’t want to miss out on this special event!

1.) This event is a great way to give back to the community and support families in need! It feels good to give to others!

 2.) Our kids look SO cute in their costumes and usually we can only get a quick snapshot of them running to a house to trick-or-treat that is super blurry or the back of them if we are really lucky! Come to get that beautiful Halloween memory that you can look back on forever and bring you back to this moment!

3.) If you have been thinking of trying out Just Peachy Photography services, this is a great chance to experience a session with no obligation to purchase anything…and if you do fall in love with your portraits (and of course I hope you will) you can purchase an image for only $25!

So what are you waiting for…

Saturday, October 23rd from 9am to 12pm (bold times below are available and times in parenthesis are pending)

The 5 minute mini session space is FREE with a 2 item donation.  The Palatine Food Pantry is getting the donation and there is a list of items they need on their website here.  The free session is for any children between the ages of 2 months and 12 years old.  Each family can reserve one space PER CHILD participating in the event and will get 2+ proofs for each child in an online gallery.  Children will be photographed individually but there is no limit to how many children you can sign up for the event. No sibling images will be taken for this event due to time restraints and nature of the event.  All children participating in our FREE event must be in their Halloween costumes. The backdrop will be a Halloween themed set up. There will be a Fall Themed mini session in fall clothing coming up in November for children with a fall backdrop and siblings are included.

All prints, digital files and custom products are sold separately at discounted pricing for the special promotional event.  Pricing starts at $25. There is no obligation to make a purchase.  Any purchased digital images will be available by digital download from our website in color and black and white with a full print release. Please note that this is last year’s set up for our mini sessions and our backdrop/set up for this year will be different!

Lovey and Stuffy Mini Session Event 2022 — Palatine, IL Baby Photographer

Years back we had our Lovey and Stuffy Mini Sessions! They were such a hit and there were so many cute babies and young children that joined me at the studio with their special lovey’s, blankets or stuffed animals!  It was so special to see them all with something do dear to them and I was thinking every Momma should have a photo of their baby with something so special to them as a keepsake.  I thought I’d bring it back for more Momma’s to get these beautiful images of their babies.

The Lovey and Stuffy Mini Session Event is for any children between the ages of 4 months and 5 years old. Children will be photographed individually ONLY (meaning no siblings will be photographed together for this event) but there is no limit to how many children you can sign up for the event as long as they are immediate family/siblings.  I will aim to get at least 3 edited images to choose from for each child that participates. The theme is “Lovey/Stuffy” and we will have a night time set up — blue sky with stars and a white rug that matches for the floor.  Children will be photographed with their favorite blanket, lovey, stuffed animal or toy.  I recommend very simple, lighter clothing for this event such as pastels and whites.  All edited proofs will be delivered within 5-7 days in an online gallery and participants will submit an order form if they would like to order any digital files or printed products from their gallery.

The Lovey and Stuffy Mini Sessions are $25 and include a 5-10 minute session with the special night themed set up only.  Digital files and print packages will start at $25.  Please contact the studio for a full pricing list for this special event.

You do not have to choose your package until after you receive your proofs but please note the minimum amount you will spend for this event is $25 (after your session fee is paid).  In order to book your session, you must sign a portrait agreement and provide a $25 payment.   Your space is not officially booked until these 2 items have been received by Just Peachy Photography (you will have 48 hours to return payment and portrait agreement due to limited availability).  Proofs will be sent to all participants within 7-10 days of the event so that you can receive your images in a timely manner.

Fall Family Mini Sessions 2022 — Palatine, Northwest Chicago Suburbs and Chicago Family Photographer

Fall is on the way and that means it is time for our Fall Mini Sessions! We will be starting to see pumpkins, scarecrows, hay bales, pumpkin spiced lattes and pumpkin themed-well everything! It is a fun time of year and there are so many things to do as a family! I think one of my favorite activities is apple picking but I’m always looking for new events to take my kids to. It is also my favorite time of year to update my family’s portraits since it is just so beautiful with the changing leaves and fall clothing is always so cozy too!

Fall Family Mini Sessions 2021 are meant for families that just want a few updated portraits for their holiday cards or for their home.  They are very quick and are not as customized to each family as our private petite and sigature sessions offered to our clients. 

The location will be in or near Palatine but selected closer to the event dates as I like to see how the leaves are changing and find the perfect location that is easy to access but also gives me a nice variety of lighting and colors to work with. I cannot predict when the leaves will change but they always are fun sessions and whether it is a little warmer or cooler, I always get beautiful portraits for my clients!

Details:  $200 price includes a 10 minute mini session, 10+ images to choose from in an online gallery, 6 digital files in color and black and white with full print release (can print unlimited copies in any size for personal use only) with the option to purchase more, up to 5 subjects (each additional subject of immediate family only is $15–sorry, no extended family for this event). I will offer a few product specials such as holiday cards and then all other products in our new product guide with be at a 10% discount.
