Quick Update :: April Calendar

April has been booking like crazy over the past couple of days.  I have 5 spots left…

  • Friday, April 2 (Good Friday) booked!
  • Saturday, April 3 booked!
  • Sunday, April 18 (afternoon only) booked!
  • Saturday, April 24 (morning only)
  • Sunday, April 25 (afternoon only) booked!

I have a couple of clients who I am waiting to hear back from that will mostly likely be taking at least 2 of these spots.

This announcement is especially for the Class of 2010.  If you would like to have a senior session in time to have wallets for your graduation announcements, the time to book is NOW!  I cannot guarantee that wallets will be here in time if your session happens in May. :-)

Thanks to everyone who is already on the schedule!  I’m looking forward to this fun (and busy!) spring!!!

Announcing :: Bluebonnet / Wildflower Minis!

A few weeks ago, I had a poll up about what kind of spring photo shoots you’d like to see – the overwhelming winner was bluebonnet portraits!  I am sooooo excited to do this!

Obviously, I can’t 100% guarantee when the bluebonnets will be out this year because of our crazy weather, so I’m offering this as a bluebonnet & wildflower mini session special!  (However, as a native Texan, I’m picking a date that has a VERY good chance of having both bluebonnets and wildflowers available!)

DETAILS:

Date:  Saturday, March 27 (bad weather day:  Sunday, April 4)

Time slots available:   AM – 10:00, 10:45, 11:30  PM – 1:00, 1:45, 2:30, 3:15, 4:00

Price:  $150

Location:  TBA (will be sent out the week of the shoots via e-mail… I have to wait and see where they will pop up!  Likely on the Dallas side of the metroplex)

What’s included:  a 30 minute session for you and your immediate family (or just your kiddos if you’d like), 15 finished  images on disc with printing permissions, and (1) 8×10 print of your favorite image!

How do I get my spot reserved? E-mail me with your desired time slot, and I’ll reply with a confirmation and a link for you to pay for your session.  All session fees must be paid at time of booking in order to reserve your spot.

I can’t wait to see you guys!  This is going to be soooo much fun!

New for 2010 :: The Session Box

I am sooooo excited to finally officially unveil this new product offering for 2010: The Session Box!  The Session Box is a unique and modern alternative to an album.  It allows you to feature a favorite image for display while having an entire box full of images nearby to share with family and friends!

The Session Box includes 30 images of your choice from your session mounted on a 2 mm styrene backing, making your images sturdy for display and enjoyment.  Each Session Box is custom designed for you and is an art piece you will be proud to display in your home!  An easel comes with each box (styles may vary based on availability).

The Session Box is $750 a la carte.  It is also included in several of my product collections at a significant savings.  Please e-mail me to obtain a full pricing menu.

Clients who had a 2009 session that wish to purchase a Session Box, please contact me for a special offer just for you!

Stay tuned for info on some special spring sessions later this week!  Hope you had a great weekend!
