As Promised...

One more day...

I am so sorry, I guess I caught a bug over the weekend that has just wiped me out! I know everyone is patiently waiting for their sneak peeks, and I PROMISE everyone will have a couple by tomorrow!! Here are a few for now…

Bear with me….it will be worth it!

New Holiday Mini-Sessions announced!

Hi Everyone! The "Fall Frenzy” photo shoot went so well that I’ve decided to offer additional mini-sessions for this holiday season. I am very excited about working with you for just the right holiday cards and portraits this year. I have some great new holiday card designs that will be revealed soon. So… it is my pleasure to officially announce my special Holiday mini-sessions:


Holiday Bliss: Sunday, November 11th - 10:00am, 10:45am, 11:30am, 1:00pm, 1:45pm - I am thinking the Zoo would be a good place for this one ****PLEASE NOTE THIS DATE HAS CHANGED DUE TO A FUNDRAISING COMMITMENT***

Holiday Heaven: Saturday, November 17th - 10:00am, 10:45am, 11:30am, 1:00pm, 1:45pm - location TBD


I am trying to find locations that have great backdrops but that are more centrally located for everyone than the Fall shoot was! I would really love to find somewhere decorated for the holidays for the second session. If anyone has any ideas, please please send them to me!! If I choose your location, you will receive a free 5×7 print from your session!!

Santa and Mrs. Clause costumes will be available for parents at both sessions. If you prefer NOT to be in the photo, then I can make sure that only a glimpse of ‘Santa’ can be seen (such as the child peeking out from behind Santa’s leg, or Santa from behind…).


All mini-sessions will last between 25-30 minutes depending on the size of the group. You will have approximately 20-25 images to choose from. These mini-sessions will have a special session fee of $25.00 (up to 4 people - $5 for each additional person over 4). You must pay a $25.00 deposit within 48 hours of booking your appointment to secure your date and time.


If you are interested in one of these sessions, please go to the calendar tab, click on the date you are interested in (please click on the number) and it will bring up the session times available. If a time slot is missing, it has already been booked. This will send an e-mail to our appointment box and we should respond within 24-48 hours with your confirmation.


*************************************************************

Just a reminder - Our success depends entirely upon customer satisfaction and word of mouth advertising. When your order is completed, we will provide you with wallet sized referral cards, made using our favorite image from your session. The cards will be printed with our logo and contact information. Our hope is that you will use these cards to pass on our information to your friends and loved ones. As an incentive, for each referral booked, you will receive one 8×10 or two 5×7 prints. Once 5 referrals are booked, you will receive a complimentary full session fee.

SUCCESS!!!

Well, in my opinion (and I believe other’s as well), yesterday was a HUGE success!! Thank you again for coming SO FAR… I had families from South Saint Louis, Pevely, Alton IL and Scott AFB to name a few and I myself drove from Hazelwood!! It was a LONG trek (with some mixed up directions), but definitely worth it! The weather was beautiful. I had so much fun interacting with everyone and getting to know all the children (parents too)! If I was not so completely exhausted last night after shooting at the park for 8 straight hours, I would had started proofing sessions. I will still keep my word and post sneak peaks here tonight or tomorrow…I know how hard it is to wait!!

Thank you again, and start looking for those e-mails next week with your logins and passwords. Unless you specifically ask that I not share your photos, I will be posting a few of my favorites on the recent session page after I have all of your proofs completed and posted.
