exclusive sessions
Periodically throughout the year I will offer exclusive sessions. These sessions are considered "exclusive" because they are offered during a specific time of the year, like the holiday, fall or summer season. Additionally, these sessions will occur over a one or two day time-frame at a designated location. As a result, the investment required for these types of sessions will differ from my other offerings. Please check back frequently to see when and if exclusive sessions are being offered.
fall petite sessions
September 23-34, 2023
Morrow-Pontefract Park in Sewickley
Over the last few years, my clients have expressed interest in fall minis. I finally decided this year, the time was right!
This year, I will hold fall petite sessions at Morrow-Pontefract Park in Sewickley! This location is the perfect fall landscape and provides so much variety - large, wide open park with lots of large, beautiful trees, a creek, a small bridge... it's the perfect location for lots of different looks. I have used this location many. times and it's one of my go-to's. I am excited to offer it as a petite mini this fall.
These 20 minute petite sessions are an investment of $200+tax that provides a beautiful backdrop and digital gallery of images with download and print rights for 5 photos. There will be an option to purchase additional images if you choose to do so!
The rain dates for these sessions will tentatively occur the following week on September 30th and October 1st. Unless there is a conflict with keeping the same time for the rain date, all times will remain the same. Those that need an alternative time in the event we have to use the rain date will have the opportunity to request a different time.
50% of the investment due at booking to secure your spot and remaining balance will be due the day of the session. This fee can be sent via Venmo (@Jessica-Merolillo). Please keep in mind that your spot is not secured until the fee is paid!
holiday exclusive tree farm sessions
October 14, 2023
Grupp's Tree Farm
For the third year in a row, I will hold my tree farm sessions at Grupp's Tree Farm. This location has been wonderful to work with the last two years, and this year is going to top the last two!
This year, I will be offering three different setups at the farm. This is a wonderful opportunity to put some variety in your gallery. Additionally, I am excited because I am also working closely with the farm owner and he is providing an exclusive location on the farm which will be brand new this year! We will be at the farm at the peak of fall, so no more empty trees and (hopefully) we avoid cold(er) temps!
These 15 minute petite sessions are an investment of $250+tax that provides an option of a few locations within the farm, a personalized ornament and digital gallery of images with download and print rights for 5 photos. There will be an option to purchase additional images if you choose to do so!
The rain date for these sessions will tentatively occur on October 22nd. Unless there is a conflict with keeping the same time for the rain date, all times will remain the same. Those that need an alternative time in the event we have to use the rain date will have the opportunity to request a different time.
50% of the investment due at booking to secure your spot and remaining balance will be due the day of the session. This fee can be sent via Venmo (@Jessica-Merolillo). Please keep in mind that your spot is not secured until the fee is paid!
holiday exclusive studio sessions
November 11, 2023
Photographer's Home Studio
After a successful last year of studio sessions, I am offering them again for one day only. The setup will revolve around the backdrop featured here. This has a "white Christmas" kind of vibe and will be perfect for sitters (little ones through young toddlers) as well as small group family shots.
These 15 minute petite sessions are an investment of $200+tax that provides a personalized ornament and digital gallery of images with download and print rights for 5 photos. There will be an option to purchase additional images if you choose to do so!

have a unique idea?
I'm always open to trying new things. Could be holiday themed, based on a classic event near you, or something special. Who knows... others might be equally as interested for their families. Let's chat and get creative!
