Deals are live!

Find the booking links below!

Can I use both deals?
Yes, but they’re booked separately. One is a holiday mini, one is a studio session.

What kind of session can I do with the studio deal?  Your choice! The set is custom and we’ll plan together to make it match your vision. Balloon sculptures, props, backdrops or a classic white session is all part of the deal. Make it a cake smash by bringing the cake.

I want a newborn session – what if I’m due soon or baby is already born?
Book the closest date to your due date with your discount code—we’ll chat to finalize your appointment time as soon as you book.

How do I apply my code?
Enter your code (NICELIST for Stories with Santa, JULY75/50/25 for studio sessions) at checkout to automatically apply your discount. If the code doesn’t work, it might be sold out so use the next one! *Applying the studio codes to a santa session will result in a refund/cancelled session.

These savings are strictly for this month and they disappear on July 31.
