color pop minis
Color Pop Minis are back again in 2025 with both new colors and themes plus some favorites from last year!
How it works:
Once a month I open up the studio with a different color backdrop for a photoshoot with one complimentary fully retouched high resolution image per subject included. These shoots are designed to be quick and sweet and are perfect for kids and dogs but on occasion there will be a special theme for families so be sure to check back regularly! All spots are first come/first serve and are released at noon on the first of the month. If you don't see any spots available that means it is sold out but feel free to contact me to be added to the waitlist. Additional images & prints sold separately.
Please note there is a $25 reservation fee to book a time slot. This fee is non-refundable but is transferable to a future date if you are no longer able to make your scheduled time. See the FAQ below for more details.
FAQ
What exactly is this "color pop mini" thing?
Once a month I open up the studio for a complimentary photo shoot of your child or pup on a different color backdrop. As a mom myself I know how unpredictable kids can be and I wanted to offer a no pressure way to essentially try out a studio photo shoot and get fun, colorful, images of your kids (fur babies included).
Wait... you added a reservation fee?
If you've been here before you will notice that there is now a small fee to book a reservation. Space is limited and unfortunately there were a lot of "no shows" or very last minute cancelations which took the opportunity away from someone else. Your reservation fee is non-refundable but it may be transferred to another day or time or converted into studio credit if you can no longer make it.
So what exactly is included with my reservation?
One fully retouched image ($95 value) is included for download within a week of the session. If you love the images you will have the chance to purchase additional images or the gallery at a highly discounted rate on the day of the shoot but there is absolutely no pressure to buy more. I shoot tethered to a giant TV so you can watch the images pop up in real time!
who can attend the color pop minis?
Generally color pop sessions are best for kids and pups but on occasion there will be a special theme where others will be invited to join.
What if I have more than one kid/pup?
If you have more than one child you may book one time slot for all of them. You will receive one complimentary individual image of each participant. I will photograph siblings together upon request. If you have allergies please let me know and I can ensure you get a dog free time slot.
what if I already attended one color pop mini - can I come again?
Absolutely! There is no restriction for how many sessions you can attend and I encourage repeat visitors.
How do I reserve a spot?
Set your alarms for 12:00pm on the first of every month as that is when booking goes live. There are a limited amount of spots available per day and they do book up quickly. If you don't get a spot right away don't fret - send me a message hello@christinacatherine.com and I will put you on a waitlist or keep checking back!
where is your studio?
The studio is located in Old Town Tustin right across from the Farmer's Market at 250 El Camino Real, Suite 113. There is always plenty of parking in the back lot and my studio faces the courtyard.
