Coeur d’Alene Studio Petite Sessions: A Beautiful Spring Experience for North Idaho Families

A Unique Studio Photo Experience for Your Family in Coeur d’Alene

Have you ever walked into a space that felt like it was waiting just for you, a place perfectly suited to capture the essence of your family’s story? After a year of dreaming and planning, my backyard studio is finally ready to do just that.

To celebrate, I am hosting a spring in the studio event, a series of 30 minute sessions throughout March and April of 2026 that we are calling the Coeur d’Alene Studio Petite Sessions. These petite sessions in North Idaho were designed for families who want something beautiful, simple, and intentional without committing to a full-length session.

Picture this: 30 minutes of light-filled play and creativity. That is exactly how the first session went, featuring a vibrant family welcoming their newborn son and officially becoming a family of four. It was a day vivid with color and joy. And now, this space is open for your family too.

The Dream Studio Space

Let’s face it…Idaho’s spring weather is as unpredictable as a toddler’s mood. That’s exactly why I am thrilled to introduce these limited-time studio sessions. Located in my freshly completed studio in North Idaho, just outside Coeur d’Alene, this space is filled with soft, natural light no matter what is happening outside.

This Coeur d’Alene Studio Petite Session experience was created to feel calm and effortless, a blank canvas that allows your family’s unique personalities to shine. And all of that in just 30 minutes. As a seasoned mom of four, I know that is just enough time to keep a toddler entertained and even recover from a meltdown if needed.

Making the Most of Your Coeur d’Alene Studio Petite Session

1. Plan with Intention

• Prioritize the moments you want to capture. Are you honoring a milestone, welcoming a new baby, or simply updating family portraits? Knowing this in advance helps your session feel meaningful and relaxed.

2. Embrace the Light

• The studio’s abundant natural light is especially beautiful in the late morning and early afternoon. It filters through the space seamlessly and allows me to capture your family in a way that feels both elevated and effortless.

3. Capture the Chaos

• Leave perfection at the door right next to your muddy boots (because spring in North Idaho, am I right?). These petite sessions are designed to celebrate real connection. The genuine giggles, the tiny hands, the in-between moments…that is where the magic lives.

If you’re like me and love shopping local here are a few spots guaranteed to help you sort the inevitable question of ‘but what will we wear?’

Why These Sessions Matter

Photos today often get buried in our phones, only to be quickly forgotten. But prints and tangible artwork transform everyday moments into legacy pieces, a gallery wall that tells your family’s evolving story. A Coeur d’Alene Studio Petite Session is not just about updating photos; it’s about documenting who you are right now, in this fleeting season.

With limited availability in March and April, this spring in the studio event offers a rare opportunity to experience this new space before my summer and fall calendar fills and even though they are a mini session you still have access to all of my expertise post session to design the heirloom artwork that best suits your family and home.

If you’re looking for something more than just 30 minutes, then a full service family session experience might be the perfect fit for you. You can explore my family photography offerings here.
