The 2026 sessions

What a mini session included

How a session runs

  • Sessions are outdoors and depend on safe weather and trail conditions.
  • Rosa confirms any weather change closer to the date.
  • A last-minute cancellation becomes credit toward a future mini session rather than a refund.
  • Every adult signs a liability waiver. A parent or guardian signs for a minor.
  • Arrive ten minutes early. Sessions run back to back, so late arrival shortens yours.
  • Families stay in the safer areas of the trails. The lookout backdrops are for couples, when conditions permit.

Questions

Fall sessions, answered

What do the Bancroft fall mini sessions cost?

The 2026 sessions were $150 for twenty minutes at Eagle's Nest Park and up to fifteen edited digital photographs, paid in full by cash or e-transfer. Next year's price is set when the dates are.

When do the fall mini sessions run?

The 2026 sessions ran October 8 to 11, over Thanksgiving weekend, between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m., and are finished. Fall colour in the Bancroft highlands lasts about three weeks and no year is the same, so these dates are chosen to sit inside the usual window rather than to promise peak colour.

How many slots are there?

Limited, because sessions run back to back in a two-hour window each evening. Next year's dates go out first to the people who have left their details, which is the reason to leave yours.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Sessions are outdoors and depend on safe weather and trail conditions. Rosa confirms closer to the date whether yours goes ahead, moves to another date you both agree, or is cancelled. Overcast is not bad weather for photographs: flat light is kind to faces.

Can we cancel?

A last-minute cancellation is not refunded. What you paid becomes credit toward a future Rosa Park Visuals mini session instead.

Is Eagle's Nest safe for young children?

Families are photographed along the safer sections of the trails, away from the edges. The lookout and cliff backdrops are offered to couples only, and only when conditions permit. Every adult signs a liability waiver before the session, and a parent or guardian signs for a minor.

When do we get the photographs?

A mini session gallery follows within about a week, because the set is small.

Not a fall session?

Weddings, engagement sessions, family photography and property work run all year. Tell us what you need.
