Be the first to know and get an email with 2027 openings for your preferred location as soon as spots go live. If you're on a notification list, there's zero obligation to book session. Because tree blossoms can be unpredictable year-to-year, dates for certain locations will be announced just a few weeks in advance, instead of months ahead.

Reach out to be added to the notification list
I approach fresh snow mini session scheduling a little differently than other mini offerings. If it looks like we're going to have pretty snowfall, I'll send out a message with my availability for mini sessions. These sessions are scheduled more last-minute than usual in order to take advantage of the fresh, pretty snow. Location options include your backyard and parks.

If you're on my fresh snow notification list, you'll be notified when there are openings available. There's no obligation to book a time at any point, it's just an option in case your schedule and the weather lines up perfectly!
CRAB APPLE BLOSSOM MINIS
Location options in Des Moines, Ames, and Dallas Center

Weekday evenings in late April to early May of 2027
