Salem Oregon Family Photographer - fall family mini sessions are right around the corner!

As you may or may not know, I only offer mini sessions for families on specific dates in the fall. Mini sessions throughout the year are reserved for newborns, maternity, individuals, and couples AND are only offered on weekdays. Fall Minis are on weekends and are open to everyone, but families get first dibs.

Anywho, my mini sessions dates will be as follows for 2026 (subject to change):

• Saturday, October 17th & 18th (outdoor location TBA)

• Sunday, November 1st (outdoor location TBA)

• Sunday, November 8th (Studio location in downtown Salem)

If you would like to book a mini session, just send me an email at kelwardphotography@gmail.com!

Salem Family Photographer - mini session at For the Love of Pete

You may recognize some of these faces, as I have photographed Porshe on many occasions (modeling, boudoir, family, birth) and even photographed Porshe & Jeremy’s hospital elopement a couple of years ago! Anyway, we met up with “the whole fam dam,” as Porshe calls them (her family, plus her parents and her brother). We met up at For the Love of Pete, which is a party supply rental place here in Salem. We had rented their holiday set to do indoor photos, but I love the outdoor shots more!
