Inside the experience
Quick, but never rushed
Even though these are mini sessions, there's nothing rushed about our time together! I'll guide you with gentle prompts, help you feel at ease, and create space for those natural moments to unfold. Fifteen minutes might seem quick, but you'll be amazed at how many magical moments we can capture!
Simple, but oh so meaningful
I know getting photos done can feel overwhelming (what to wear, will the kids behave, is it worth the effort?). But here's the thing: these quick backyard sessions are designed to be the easiest thing on your to-do list! Just fifteen minutes in my peaceful space, capturing those fleeting moments that are slipping by too fast. Because someday, these simple photos of you loving on your babies? They'll mean absolutely everything.
Cozy, Comfortable, and so seamless
From the moment you arrive, everything is taken care of! The lighting is perfect, the backdrop is ready, it's peaceful, private, and relaxed, and I'm here to bring out the natural smiles. Just show up and soak in these precious moments with your loves.
"Sabrina is absolutely incredible! I normally don't like how I look in photos but there wasn't a single picture that she took that I didn't feel beautiful in. We had so much fun at the shoot with her. She has a unique ability to make you feel confident, empowered, and gorgeous- even when you're 8 months pregnant!" W. Schulz

"Sabrina made us feel super comfortable during the shoot and helped us with posing so that way the photos were more 'candid'. I've never been so beyond excited to receive photos. She also has a range of aesthetic, which is the ultimate reason we chose her. She doesn't just stick to one hue, she does warm, cool tones and black and white! Every picture she takes she creates absolute magic!" A. Wall
"I've never been so beyond excited to receive photos!"
"Sabrina is THE BEST. She’s insanely talented, passionate and kind! She sets the vibe for your shoot, always making you feel comfortable and then delivers and over delivers. She has a unique editing style that makes any shoot feel unique and a very crisp vision. Could not recommend her more!" - M. Millisic

Frequently Asked Questions
How long after our session should I expect my gallery to be delivered?
Typically around 3-4 weeks. During the fall season, which is the busiest, it’s 4 weeks.
How early should I book a session with you?
If you know that you will be wanting to print your photos for a special occasion, I suggest booking your session about 5 weeks out at least from the date you would like to be sending those out.
Do you offer sneak peeks?
It’s both yes and no. I make no promises though. During busy season, I do not..but, when I’m not in the rush of the busy season I try to get you a handful of your photos before delivering your full gallery! Believe me, I know how hard it is to wait to see your photos so I try my best!
Do you travel?
YES! My Travel Fees start at $60 and are adjusted as necessary for any location outside of La Mesa by 20 miles. If your location is further, I'll provide a quote after your inquiry.
How many photos can I expect?
Lets be real…I overshoot like a mad woman. I don’t like to miss anything! For 1 hour sessions you typically get a minimum of 100 photos but I honestly deliver ALL my favorite photos. For backyard mini sessions…..again, lets be real. I will give you ALL my favorites. So however many we are able to get and I love I will deliver to you for no additional fee.
How long should I wait for a response after inquiring?
3-4 business days. If you don’t see a response from me after that then please reach out again, - I will ALWAYS respond and I might have missed your message!
