How to Choose the Best Session for You: MICRO, MINI, or MAXI

At SELFIELAB, we offer three self-portrait session options to fit different needs, timeframes, and budgets: MICRO, MINI, and MAXI. Whether you're looking for a quick solo session or a more immersive photoshoot experience, we have something that will work for you. But with so many options, how do you know which one is the best fit? Let’s break down each session to help you make the right choice for your self-portrait experience.

MICRO Session – Quick and Budget-Friendly

Best for: Individuals or small groups looking for a fast, affordable session.

Session Length: 20 minutes

The MICRO session is the perfect choice if you’re short on time or looking for a budget-friendly option. At just $90, this session offers a quick 20-minute photoshoot for up to 3 people. It’s ideal for those who need updated professional headshots, a fun solo shoot, or a quick group portrait. While the session is brief, you’ll still receive unlimited photos (avg. 20-150), with one backdrop of your choice and props.

Why Choose the MICRO Session?

  • You’re on a tight schedule or have limited time.

  • You need just a few quick, high-quality shots for professional or personal use (full-body or portrait).

  • You want a quick yet fun photoshoot experience without a long commitment.

  • You want to give a try to SELFIELAB.

Occasions for the MICRO Session:

  • Professional Headshots: Perfect for updating your LinkedIn profile or other professional platforms.

  • Solo Portraits: Great for a personal branding update, dating profiles, or just a fresh set of portraits.

  • Small Group Shots: A quick photo session with a friend or family member for casual, fun portraits.

When Not to Choose the MICRO Session:

  • If you want to experiment with a lot of outfits or props, this session may feel rushed.

  • If you have more than 3 people in your group, you may want to opt for a longer session for more variety and time.

  • If you need a more in-depth or creative photoshoot, a longer session may better meet your needs.

MINI Session – More Time and Flexibility

Best for: Small groups or individuals who want more time to experiment with different shots and backdrops.

Session Length: 40 minutes

The MINI session gives you a little more time to play with different ideas, whether you’re shooting solo or with friends and family. At $150, this 40-minute session allows up to 5 people and is perfect if you want to take a variety of shots, explore more poses, and try different backdrops. Whether you’re capturing fun memories, updating your personal brand photos, or taking portraits with your loved ones, the MINI session strikes the perfect balance of time, flexibility, and cost.

Why Choose the MINI Session?

  • You need more than a few photos and want the freedom to explore different looks and backdrops.

  • You have a small group (up to 5 people) and want a more relaxed, detailed shoot.

  • You’re looking for a good mix of time and value.

Occasions for the MINI Session:

  • Family Photoshoots: Ideal for small families or groups who want to capture beautiful memories together.

  • Couple Portraits: Perfect for a fun, casual session with a partner for anniversaries, engagements, dates or personal milestones.

  • Updated Personal Branding: A great option for entrepreneurs or influencers who need a few extra shots for their portfolio or social media presence.

When Not to Choose the MINI Session:

  • If you need a very detailed or extensive shoot with multiple outfits, you may run out of time to fully explore all your ideas.

  • If you have a larger group (up to 5 people), the MINI session might not give everyone enough time for individual shots.

  • If you’re looking for a super quick, budget-friendly option, the MINI session might not be the most time-efficient for your needs.

MAXI Session – The Ultimate Self-Portrait Experience

Best for: Those who want a more immersive experience with ample time to create stunning images.

Session Length: 90 minutes

The MAXI session is the most comprehensive option, offering you 90 minutes of photoshoot time for up to 5 people. At this session length, you have the luxury of experimenting with multiple outfits, backdrops, and props, while also allowing time for more personalized shots and detailed editing. This session is perfect for those who want to go all out, whether it’s for a special occasion, a personal portfolio, or a family photoshoot. With the MAXI session, you have the freedom to explore a wide range of creative possibilities.

Why Choose the MAXI Session?

  • You have a little more time to play with different looks, poses, and ideas.

  • You want an immersive experience with plenty of time to create stunning, high-quality photos.

  • You’re planning a family, group, or themed shoot and want more variety and creative flexibility.

Occasions for the MAXI Session:

  • Family or Group Photoshoots: Perfect for capturing cherished memories with extended family or larger groups.

  • Special Celebrations: Celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, or milestones with an extended photoshoot experience.

  • Creative Projects: Ideal for anyone looking to build a diverse and creative portfolio, whether for personal branding or artistic expression.

When Not to Choose the MAXI Session:

  • If you are on a tight schedule or need a quicker photoshoot, the MAXI session may feel too long for your needs.

  • If you don’t need the extra time for outfit changes or experimenting with different looks, the MINI session could be a better choice.

  • If you’re on a budget, the MAXI session is the most expensive option, and you might prefer a more affordable choice.
