Anastasia

We really enjoyed the photoshoot with Anastasia. She was very helpful during the preparation stage, and the photoshoot itself was easy and enjoyable. The final photos turned out absolutely beautiful—it’s hard to choose a favorite! We’re so happy because this is exactly how we wanted to capture this special time in our family’s life.
Thank you!

The session will be rescheduled or moved to another location if it will be strong rain or extreme weather conditions like stormy wind or any potential damage conditions.

How and when will I receive my photos?

You will receive your fully edited images via a private online gallery link within 14 days after the session via your contacts.

What should I wear for the mini photoshoot?

Neutral & solid colors (beige, white, pastels, earth tones) work best. Avoid neon, bold prints, or large logos.
Coordinated outfits for groups—mix complementing colors instead of matching exactly.
Comfortable, well-fitted clothing that allows natural movement.
Layering & texture (knits, linen, lace) add depth to photos.
Season & location appropriate—light dresses for the beach, structured outfits for city shoots.
Shoes & accessories should complement your outfit. Avoid bulky sneakers or overly casual footwear.
Natural makeup & polished hair for a timeless look.
