CLAYTON, North Carolina MINI SESSION PHOTOGRAPHER 

Throughout the year we hold themed mini sessions which are just as amazing as our full sessions just quicker. They are perfect for families that want to update their family photos, have cute pictures of their little one, memorialize a milestone of their child's first year or just to create yearly memories. We hold several a year so come join us for a few. 

"What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce."

- Karl Lagerfeld -

KIND WORDS:

Outdoor mini sessions will only occur if it is a scheduled day of multiple minis, like a day of outdoor fall or spring minis or Christmas mini sessions at a tree farm. Otherwise mini sessions take place in studio with a neutral backdrop.

06. CAN MINI SESSIONS TAKE PLACE ON LOCATION?

No. Prints, products and digital images are purchased after the session. 

05. IS ANYTHING INCLUDED IN THE SWISH MISS COLLECTION?

Yes. We offer albums, prints, photo books and much more and your mini session images would be perfect for any. 

04. WILL ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS BE AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE?

No. Themed minis are specifically held on certain days and up to 10 slots are available to book. Since they require a lot of time, preparation and props setting up for one mini just isn't feasible.

03. CAN I BOOK A THEMED MINI SESSION AT ANY TIME?

Regular mini sessions include one neutral backdrop and one or two outfits if time allows. Themed minis include one outfit and the themed set and will always be scheduled on a particular day with multiple time slots back to back.

02. HOW MANY BACKDROPS AND OUTFITS INCLUDED?

Mini sessions are 30 minutes. To add on additional time, two mini sessions can be booked that are back to back which would give you a 1 hour session. This is good for large families or if you want to do wardrobe changes.

SEE WHAT WE OFFER

HI, I'M TAI!

meet your photographer

For 11 years I have been able to provide invaluable memories for families in the Clayton, RDU, and Fayetteville area. Their baby's tiny beginnings and
budding personalities will forever be remembered.

I am so grateful photography found me. As an introvert photography was not something I thought I could do but I push past shyness to give my clients an amazing experience. I will play your child's favorite jams (coco melon on repeat) and tap into my inner toddler to keep them entertained.

As a mother of 4, I unfortunately did not have my children's first year photographed and for one I only have snapshots with the random thumb covering the lens. This is one of my biggest regrets of their childhood and pushes me to make sure other families do not suffer the same fate. Your baby and all others deserve photos that tell their tiny beginning beautifully. 

Here are a few fun facts about me:




I love peanut butter out of the jar, I only need a spoon.

Chocolate is my kryptonite add coconut and I'm in Heaven

I love technology, especially if it makes my life easier

I keep 90s - 00s Hip-Hop & R&B on repeat

I'm spoiled and LOVE IT!

I'm a Taurus!
