Christmas mini sessions are a wonderful opportunity to capture the magic of the holiday season with your loved ones in a fun and relaxed environment. At Jo Anto Photography, we specialize in creating beautiful, timeless images that celebrate family moments and the festive spirit. If you've booked a Christmas mini session with us, here's what you can expect from the moment you book to receiving your final photos.

Booking Your Christmas Mini Session

Booking your session with Jo Anto Photography is quick and easy. Booking can be done online from our dedicated Christmasn mini booking page. Our Christmas mini sessions are highly sought after, so we encourage early booking to secure your spot. Once you've selected your preferred date and time through our online booking system, you will receive a confirmation email with all the important details. If you have any special requests or ideas for the session, feel free to contact us ahead of time.

Since these sessions are only 15-20 minutes long, we recommend arriving early to ensure everything goes smoothly and you get the most out of your session. From our previous experience its best to arrive 15 minutes prior to the booked time, as the slots are not changable or swappable. Ensure you do not miss the slot by arriving atleast 15 minutes early.

Pro Tip: Check our availability online and note that some dates may be fully booked. If so, you will not be able to see those dates in our booking page.

On the Day: Arrival and Setup

Our Christmas mini sessions are set in a beautifully decorated, festive environment that’s designed to capture the joy and warmth of the holidays. We’ve teamed up with multiple stunning studies across GTA that incorporate classic Christmas themes—think cozy winter setups, twinkling lights, and elegant holiday décor.

We keep the atmosphere light and fun, especially if young children are involved, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and natural in front of the camera. The 20 minutes slot ensures 15-17 minutes of shoot time, and within this time, we will capture a variety of posed and candid moments, giving you plenty of photo options.

During the Mini Session: What to Expect

During your session with Jo Anto Photography, we aim to create a relaxed and enjoyable environment. Whether you're posing with your family, significant other, or even pets, we will guide you every step of the way.

Efficient, but not rushed: We know that 15-20 minutes is short, but we're experts at working efficiently to capture those perfect moments.

Posed and candid shots: Expect a mix of both, with our photographers guiding you through fun poses while also allowing for natural interactions that result in candid, heartwarming shots.

Festive props and themes: We provide a range of holiday-themed props like ornaments, stockings, and cozy blankets that can be incorporated into your photos, adding that extra festive touch.

After the Session: Editing and Delivery Timeline

After your mini session, we’ll get to work on editing your photos to ensure they look flawless. We carefully edit each image to enhance lighting, colors, and overall aesthetics, ensuring every photo reflects the festive joy of the season. Although we do not do beauty retouching, we often use soft lighting in the studios to ensure you look the best.

Editing typically takes 7-10 days, and once your images are ready, you’ll receive a private online gallery link. You can select your favorites and we will enable the download for your selected set of images.

If you need the photos sooner for holiday cards or other gifts, feel free to reach out, and we’ll do our best to expedite the process.
