A Mini-Session is a shorter-than-average portrait session that offers you the opportunity to capture beautiful moments in a condensed timeframe. Our Holiday Minis are scheduled on predetermined dates and times, with sessions conducted back-to-back.

Each session is 20 minutes and you will receive 20 high-resolution professionally edited images.

You can book your Mini Session by clicking any 'Book' button, which will take you to the booking page for that studio. Here you can choose your preferred date/time.

After completing the booking form, you'll be prompted to pay the 50% deposit by e-transfer to andrea@andreareneephoto.com
Within 48 hours of bookings, you'll receive an email which includes your photography services agreement, session details and your Holiday Portrait Style Guide.

We're excited to confirm that this year we have selected six incredible holiday-themed studios for our Holiday Minis in Toronto.

Five of these studios (Frosted Nest, Salted Caramel, Frozen, Timeless Twist and the Lounge) are located at the popular Mint Room Studios. The sixth holiday studio (Golden Glow) is located at its nearby sister studio, Preto Lofts.

Choose which holiday-themed installations you'd like as the backdrop for your session. Each studio offers a unique and captivating setting that perfectly complements the festive season.

Yes! Mint Room is pet friendly, provided you adhere to their pet policy which requires a $300 security deposit and $50 pet fee paid directly to Mint Room Studio or Preto Loft on arrival. The pet fee will be deducted from the security deposit following your session.

Remember, this is arranged directly with the studio when you arrive at your session, so if you are bringing your four-legged family member, please arrive leave extra time to pay this before your session is scheduled to begin.

Our standard Holiday Minis are set for 20 minutes to accommodate limited availability and back-to-back scheduling, but if you're looking to extend your session you have two options:

1. If you want to book during our prearranged Holiday Mini dates and times, you can opt to book and pay for two consecutive sessions ($598), extending your session to 45 minutes

2. If you have some flexibility in your schedule and can accommodate a weekday session, you can book a 60-minute the holiday-themed studio if your choice from $449 (depending on the room selected).

Given the back-to-back nature of our sessions, it's crucial to adhere to the schedule to ensure a seamless experience for all participants. Delayed arrivals could impact both your session and those scheduled after you. Therefore, if you arrive late we will only be able to shoot until your scheduled end-time.

To provide the best experience for everyone, it's very important to arrive 15 minutes before your allocated start time, to give you time to get your family ready in the waiting area.

Due to limited availability and to ensure all our clients have the opportunity to participate in Holiday Minis, we require a non-refundable 50% deposit ($149.5) at the time of booking and the remaining balance paid 14 days before your session.
