mini-session events

One date, a grid of paying slots

Christmas minis, headshot days — a single page splits the date into bookable slots, each with its own deposit and real calendar conflict checks. First to book gets the time.

how it works

From 'want minis?' to sold out in a weekend

Pick the date, set the slots

One day split into 20-minute slots on a single public page — each prettily priced and deposit-protected.

Share one link

Instagram story, email list, a few DMs — the same page sells every slot, no spreadsheet, no 'is 11:20 free?' back-and-forth.

Slots take deposits

Each booking runs the normal flow — calendar check both ways, deposit via Stripe. A slot is gone the second it's paid.

Double-booking is impossible

The slot disappears when booked, so the day physically cannot sell a time twice.

One date, split into bookable slots

One date split into bookable slots on a single page — Christmas minis, headshot days — reusing the normal deposit flow. Double-booking is impossible because the slot is gone the moment it sells.

  • A single link for the whole event, one slot per family
  • Reuses your normal deposit flow, no new setup
  • Two families can never land on the same slot

the honest comparison

A slots day without the add-on subscription

Booking tools built for one-off meetings half-fit a mini-session day. Session and Calendly don't know your deposit flow or your gallery.

Questions, answered honestly

Just what the product actually does today.

How do mini-session slots work?

One date is split into bookable slots on a single page — 11:00, 11:45, 12:30 — each reusing your normal deposit flow. When a slot is taken, it's gone; double-booking is impossible.

Can families take more than one slot?

Yes if you allow it — siblings can book back-to-back slots. You control whether a client can hold more than one, and each slot carries its own deposit.

Is this better than a booking tool add-on?

It lives in your normal bookings flow, so it checks your Google Calendar both ways and takes deposits like any other booking. No separate Session or Calendly subscription to wire together.
