October at GVP Studios
The air feels softer, the leaves are turning, and our cameras are busy capturing all the in-between moments that make this season unforgettable. Here’s a little of what’s happening at the studio and what’s on the horizon.
Happening Now 🍂
Outdoor Fall Portraits
There’s nothing quite like the glow of autumn in Northern California. From crunching leaves underfoot to those honey-toned sunsets, October is the perfect backdrop for outdoor portraits that feel timeless and organic.
Family in town? What a perfect time to schedule a large family group session!
Short attention spans, but still want your yearly photo? Join one of the remaining mini sessions.
Bay Area Travel Dates
Napa on 10/18 is full, but reach out if you’d like us to bring our cameras to your corner—we love turning travel days into little neighborhood celebrations.
Holiday Minis
We still have a handful of spots left in November, especially during Thanksgiving week. These are quick, joyful sessions designed to capture the spirit of your family before the holiday hustle sweeps you away.
Holiday Gifts
Our bi-annual album sale is here—20% off through October. These handcrafted albums are heirlooms meant to be passed down, and this is the perfect time to create something lasting and tangible.
Acrylic holiday etched prints and accordion mini albums are the most popular gift for grandparents, or yourself.
Upcoming ✨
Engagement Season
The holidays have a way of sparking romance, and we’re always honored to document new chapters. If you or someone you love is planning to pop the question, we’d love to dream up the perfect proposal and engagement session together.
Mobile Headshots + Brand Content
Your business deserves fresh imagery, too. From workplace portraits to updated product photos, professional imagery keeps your website looking current (and gives your SEO a quiet boost). We make it easy by bringing our studio to you, or you can always bring your brand to us in Midtown.
Year-Round 🌦️
Indoor Group Portrait Sessions
Afraid of unpredictable fall weather? We’ve got you covered. Our studio is always available for portraits when the skies don’t cooperate. You can rest easy knowing your session won’t need to be rescheduled—cozy, elegant portraits are always possible indoors.
Baby and Kids Milestones
From tiny toes to toothy grins, every stage deserves to be celebrated. Our studio milestone portraits capture your baby’s sweetest seasons and your child’s big little moments — timeless keepsakes you’ll treasure forever.
October reminds us to slow down and savor. Whether we’re wandering through vineyards, chasing light at Folsom Lake, or creating warmth in our studio, we’re grateful for the chance to capture your stories this season.
