Sessions | Mini Session

I met the Session Family just one year ago! They had recently bought a lovely new home with the help of Leah Bond (aka best realtor ever 😉 ) & I had gone over to take a few photos of them in their new house! Karen is just seriously, like seriously, one of the most nicest people I’ve ever “met” thru email & she’s even nicer in person! We really hit if off after I met her & her husband & 3 handsome young fellas last year. Then Karen emailed me right before my maternity leave & said they wanted new pictures once I was back! So just a few weeks ago we got to have a mini session! Here’s some of my favorite images from it!

These two! I wanted to take them home with me to hangout with Elizabeth!

Love these photo’s of Misty & her littles! Well, her littles that aren’t so little 😉 It’s been a couple years since I’ve seen these 3 handsome boys & their sister & let me tell you, they are probably THE MOST POLITE children I have ever met!!!

I’m totally thinking of putting their pictures on my own walls since they’re all wearing my favorite color- navy 😉 Kidding! Well maybe I’m not 😉 It was a hot evening for pictures but they sure look AH-MAZING!!! These are such sweet photos of such a sweet family!

Love this one of Misty & her baby girl!

Back-to-School Mini Sessions for 2016!

Please note these mini sessions are for families that homeschool only.

Matteson | Back to School Mini Session-23

For the past two years, I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed getting to meet & connect with fellow homeschooling families in the Bloomington-Normal area. I was homeschooled along with my 3 siblings & my husband was as well! I am very passionate about education at home & Eric & I hope to do the same with our future children.

So once again, I wanted to give local homeschooling families the opportunity to be able to have their children have their own “Back-to-School” pictures 🙂 . Plus, I know how challenging it can be to make time in a family’s calendar for pictures, I wanted to leave opportunity in case the entire family wanted to have pictures & not just each individual child!

Therefore I am offering two types of packages for the Back-to-School Mini Sessions:

Individual Student Session:
First Child – 3-5 Images | $30.00
If you have more then one child-great! After your first child, it’s just $20.00 per additional child.
Session will take 10 minutes.

Family Session:
Family’s up to 6 members ($10.00 per additional family member after 6 members) 5-10 Images | $75.00
Session will take 15 minutes.

To reserve your session on either Saturday, July 16 OR Saturday, August 13, or if you have any questions just email me at naomi@nomi-photography.com & we will get you in!!! Every year of homeschooling is a milestone! And capturing your children & family at this time, is a joy of mine

All images will be delivered within 3 weeks of the session via email with a link to an online gallery where they can be downloaded to your computer & then printed wherever you choose. Print Release is also included. Full payment is due at session. An online contract & more details about preparing for your session will be provided ahead of time. These sessions are not suitable for seniors in high school. No outfit changes are allowed.

Heidi | Mom & Me Mini Session

Every time I get my dear friend Heidi & her family behind my camera is a joy! We had to literally run in & out of the rain for these pictures but I’m being totally honest when I say that these are my favorite Mom & Me pictures to date!

Heidi Mom and Me-2

I love the joy in their faces!!!

Heidi Mom and Me-6

He loves his mommy dearly 🙂

Heidi Mom and Me-10

Heidi Mom and Me-13

My fav!

Heidi Mom and Me-15

Motherhood is hard. Yet so rewarding & a journey like none other. When I look at my friend Heidi, I see how her heart just yearns to love, inspire & lead her littles. Each week I see her do just that. When I look at the below photo I think of the verse in Proverbs that says “Her children arise & called her blessed.”

Heidi, my friend, you’re an amazing mom. Because the Lord enables you to be. I love you!

Mini Sessions for 2016

If you’re like me & love to plan ahead, here is the list of Mini Sessions I’ll be offering in 2016 & a few of their dates! As we get closer to the mini’s in the later part of the year, I’ll update with their set dates as well.

Last year, I posted a survey to see what my clients were most interested in mini sessions wise. Because of the responses, I’ve added a few mini sessions that I think A LOT of people will be excited about (hint, think Christmas!) & am simplifying what I’m offering this year compared to last year. Can we say hashtag mom life? 😉 All of my mini sessions are relationship based (like Mom & Me and Grandparents Day) & they will always continue to be so!

All mini session images are received via an online gallery. I’m also excited that I’ll be using an online sign-up system this year that will make life a lot easier for many of us 🙂 Again, #momlife

Here they are- the list of Mini Sessions Nomi Photography will be offering in 2016!

Mom & Me Mini’s

Maureen & Ella-10

Mom, you’re important. Not just because you wipe all the runny noses & drive everyone here & there. Not just because you make birthdays magical & dancing in the kitchen so fun. And certainly not just because you give THE.BEST.HUGS & know exactly what to do when the tears are falling,

It’s because you give of yourself ALL.THE.TIME. Usually without thanks. You love until it hurts. And then keep on loving some more. And frankly, we couldn’t do life without you. Mom, YOU ARE LOVED. More then you know.


 

Mom & Me Mini Sessions with Nomi Photography are 15 minute mini photo sessions. Together with your mini me’s, we’ll laugh, play & hug while I snap away on my camera to deliver you 10-15 images you’ll reflect back on. When you’ve had a day with more temper tantrums then you’d care to have these are the type of images that will remind you that motherhood is more then worth it. Each session is $75.00 & covers 6 total people. After 6 individuals, there is a $10.00 cost per additional person. You will receive a few images via your email beforehand just in time for Mother’s Day to view. The remaining images & a print release will be delivered to you via an online gallery where you can download them & print them wherever you choose within 3 weeks of the session date.

Spots are limited. SIGN-UP for a Mom & Me Mini Session HERE.

Later you’ll receive an email from me with the location of our mini sessions & other details. Email me at naomi@nomi-photography.com with any questions you may have!

Fall Family Mini Session Recap

 

I love fall! And I love taking pictures in the fall! And I know my clients love it as well 😉 Fall pictures hold a special place in my heart since Eric & I had our engagement pictures taken in the fall & just a few weekends ago, we had our maternity session done!

Here’s a few of my personal favorites from this year’s Fall Family Mini Sessions! I only have them once a year but they always book quickly & I like having two days available so that I was able to connect with more families. I’m already looking forward to next year & toying around with the idea of doing Spring Family Mini’s after I’m back from my maternity leave 😉 It’s not a set thing but if that interests you, make sure you let me know!
