How to Sell, Setup & Shoot Mini Sessions

Have you ever wondered what goes into setting up successful mini sessions but have no idea where to start? Or what even is a mini session? I’m so excited to be a part of Rachel Vanoven Collective and share all of the details with you.

Lindsey Friar Photography

Hey guys! I’m Lindsey Friar and I’m a born and raised beach girl with a passion for my family and photography. Based out of Pensacola Beach, FL my entire business caters around my family. I want to have it all; both quality time with my 5 children and success with my business.

My Why

After 10 years of shooting mainly newborns, children, and families, it seems that transitioning to only mini sessions makes sense for my business and my lifestyle right now. There is value in still catering to most clients at an affordable rate {to them} and the ability to make more than I did shooting weddings back in the day! Less work, more pay! Everyone is happy…

Because I shoot at a high volume rate, I prepare by having clients lined up back to back on a certain predetermined time and day. This can be anywhere from 4-8 families in one night. I have different locations, themes, and policies I implement that help makes each of the mini sessions a success.

The Rachel Vanoven Collective

In my video with Rachel Vanoven’s Collective, I go over my process from start to finish on how I set up, manage and sell my mini sessions. Diving into detail about how I get my ideas & inspiration, execution, communication, & upselling. I am completely transparent from my pricing to my secrets that I don’t share with anyone else on how I engage with my clients.

There is so much potential for anyone to use this kind of business model and I’m so excited to share and empower other women with this knowledge.
