Los Angeles Holiday Mini Sessions

It's that time of year again! I am so excited to announce Los Angeles Holiday Mini Sessions for the 12th year in a row!

2026 Los Angeles & San Diego Holiday Mini Sessions - $350:

20 minute session for up to 6 people

10-15 edited images (turnaround time is approx 2-3 weeks) in a downloadable online gallery.

How to book:

Scroll through the dates and locations listed below. Please note, the photos next to each sign-up date are examples of sessions at that location. After choosing your date and location, click the Book Now button and select a session time. Please email me at julie@julieshuford.com if a date is not available and I can add you to the waitlist. Follow the prompts to sign up. You will then receive a confirmation email, and you’re all booked!

More details for this year:

I’m so excited to list a few new locations again this year! I’m working on securing a couple more locations and morning sessions in the next couple of weeks. You can always change your session location with no fees - if dates and times are still available.
The galleries for November 15, 21 and 22 dates will most likely not be delivered before Thanksgiving.
Mini Sessions are only available on the dates, times, and locations below. I will be trying to add more dates when available.
If you would like to book more than 6 people for your session, you can book a full one-hour portrait session at a different date or location of your choice. My one-hour portrait sessions are available this fall season as well. Portrait sessions are $675 for a one-hour session at a location of your choice with up to 10 family members. You will receive 50-75 edited images. I also offer extended family portrait sessions for groups and families larger than 10 people. Please email me to book at julie@julieshuford.com.
WEATHER UPDATES: As we’ve all heard, SoCal will be having a severe El Niño event this winter. While rain will hopefully not affect our sessions, I will work my hardest to get them rescheduled if necessary. I will also offer indoor studio options in place of outdoor locations if rain affects your session that day.

Be sure to sign up for my newsletter BELOW!

The newsletter is where I will send updates on new locations or dates if they become available and where I announce mini sessions every year! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to reach out: julie@julieshuford.com. I’m so excited to see everyone this fall!
