Christmas Mini Sessions
Christmas Mini Sessions are the perfect opportunity
to get updated photos of your family and
to gift for upcoming holidays.
These are short and sweet for kids (and Dads) and if you've done photos with me before, you know I try to make the whole experience easy and fun.
This years set features a gorgeous deep red vintage chair
and an elegant Christmas Library backdrop.
The set is accessorized with white candles, wrapped gifts
and vintage toys and books.

client testimonials
Melissa, you were awesome and made it so easy for us and (our baby). It was already overwhelming for us with the new baby but working with you just was so much easier than I anticipated. - Deeksha
The photos are stunning!!
I teared up looking at them and I am in awe of how beautiful they are. You are an amazing artist and I will highly recommend you to all my friends and family - Jordana
We had an amazing experience with Melissa for both our maternity photoshoot and newborn studio session. She was extremely professional and took some breathtaking photos of me when I felt my most vulnerable and insecure about my appearance in late days of my final trimester. The photos of my newborn son are absolutely priceless. I will forever be grateful for choosing to go with Melissa Auer Photography. We will definitely be using her in future for our photography needs - Amanda
Melissa was absolutely incredible for our newborn shoot. She was extremely organized and made sure to send us tips/tricks we might need to have a successful baby shoot. And when our little guy didn’t fully cooperate during the initial shoot, Melissa made space for us to get the final shots that we really wanted. She was so gentle and lovely with our newborn every step of the way and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Not to mention the photos she captured were absolutely stunning and we couldn’t be happier with them. I can’t recommend her enough and we will certaily be using her in future family shoots. - D'Arcy
Melissa worked her magic creating a comfortable soothing environment for baby and we got the most beautiful photos. Literally every single one was perfect! We even got a few shots of him smiling in his sleep. Highly recommend her and i would definitely use her again!! She is a baby whisperer helping settle them into the poses! - Michelle
My husband and I researched quite a few photographers for our first baby’s newborn photoshoot and we really liked Melissa’s style of photography based on her website and Instagram. We are so thankful we went with her. Not only are the photos better than we imagined but the experience with Melissa has been the best part. She was so accommodating with the booking and she had every detail planned out for the session before we had arrived. She created a comforting environment and was so patient with our fussier than usual baby. Melissa made sure that we were happy with what we are getting every step of the way. I highly recommend Melissa for any kind of photoshoot you are looking for. We will be booking with her again. - Nancy
