What are Storybook Sessions?
Storybook Sessions are immersive fine art portrait experiences held at our Spring Branch, TX studio. Each session is designed around an elaborate set, such as Santa’s workshop, a magical underwater mermaid scene, or a superhero cityscape. These sessions feel like stepping into a fairytale, with every detail carefully curated to create portraits as magical as the memories themselves.
How often do you offer Storybook Sessions?
Storybook Sessions are offered only during select times of the year. Santa experiences are held in the fall and winter, while other themed sessions—such as Mermaid or Hero—are offered seasonally. Because these sessions are limited, we recommend reserving your spot early.
What is included in the booking fee?
The booking fee for Storybook Sessions is $125. This reserves your private time in the studio and includes the fully styled experience. It does not include prints, products, or digital files.
What happens after the session?
After your Storybook Session, you’ll return to the studio for a private ordering appointment. This is when you’ll view your portraits and select the products that best fit your family.
How long will it take to see my images?
Your images will be ready for viewing within one week of your session at your ordering appointment. After you select your products most products will arrive within 2–3 weeks.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, we offer flexible payment plans for your Storybook Session products. Please note that no products will be edited, printed, or delivered until the final payment has been received.
What products are available for purchase?
We offer a curated collection of luxury heirloom items, including fine art albums, handcrafted wall art, folio boxes, and gift prints. Digital files are also available. Products begin at $150 per digital file a la carte, and most families invest $1,000+ in their collections.
How long will the session last?
Our Storybook Sessions last 30 minutes, giving your child time to enjoy the sets, interact with Santa (when included), and experience all the details without feeling rushed.
Are sessions private?
Yes. Each Storybook Session is a private experience reserved exclusively for your family. This ensures your child has Santa’s full attention (when included), and you enjoy a calm, unhurried atmosphere, perfect for children and families of varying needs.
Do you provide outfits or props?
Each set is styled with authentic, high-end props to bring the story to life. For some experiences, such as mermaid sessions, costumes are included to keep. For others, such as Santa sessions, we do offer pajamas and dresses in our studio closet to use during the session. We’ll provide styling guidance ahead of your session to ensure your child looks picture-perfect.
How do I reserve a Storybook Session?
Because Storybook Sessions are extremely limited, reservations are required. Once dates are announced, booking is first-come, first-served. We recommend securing your session as early as possible.
