I just recently started offering a Mini Session, which you can find on my pricing page. It's basically aimed at those families or couples that just need 20 or so photos during a 30 minute session. Shannon and Chris decided to do one and it was a lot of fun. Shannon recommended the Lakehead University trail and it was such a perfect choice. The funny thing is, is that I live just down the street and this was my first portrait session there.

All the colours were in full swing so we headed down by the creek to take advantage of the water as well as the beautiful trail. With only 30 minutes to work with, I made sure to keep things moving while not necessarily rushing anything. What we came away with were some truly natural moments. Shannon and Chris were so great in front the camera. All I had to do was tell them to stand in a certain location and the rest was really easy.

One of the final shots, as per Shannon's request, was a portrait of Chris with straw in his mouth. It was a fitting end to a very laid back session. Thanks to both Chris and Shannon for letting me photograph them on such a nice Fall afternoon.
