Feb 8th: MAPSS Fundraiser Minis

MAPSS Fundraiser 15-minute mini sessions with 5 edited images are here!

The Mini Session will be held at the Grain Exchange building downtown Calgary in unit 412. The address is 815 1st Street SW. To gain access to the building, please press the up arrow on the outside call boxx and dial 412 to be buzzed in. Please proceed up the elevator to the 4th floor.

There is a lobby inside suite 412 for your family to safely wait for your turn. Please only arrive ten minutes early to avoid overlapping with another family.

For parking, there is a lot behind the building that is only $1 an hour on weekends. This is the best option, especially with little kids! To access the lot, please drive down 9th ave and turn left into the lot.

These mini-sessions are intended for families (parents + children) who are a part of MAPSS. However, if you wish to bring extended family members (grandparents, aunties, uncles, and more), please book two-time slots back to back to accommodate your family members and provide you with various images. Please arrive on time for your booked session (no more than 5 minutes before your spot to safely wait for your turn). Please bring indoor footwear to be comfortable in your photoshoot.

Images will be available a week later as an online gallery sent directly to your email address. You can select your favourite photos through the gallery (there is an online guide on how to do that), and you have the option to purchase additional images.

If you are feeling shy, you will be assisted with posing, and of course, requests for photos are always welcomed. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family for your mini-session!

p.s. if you wish to have the images private and not shared online, please let me know in advance.

Maria Montessori emphasized the importance of nurturing a child’s imagination. She believed that by providing stimulating environments and meaningful experiences, children could use their imagination to explore and understand the world. Montessori quotes about imagination often highlight the need to awaken interest, stimulate the child’s mind, and encourage them to use their imagination to create
