Fall Mini Sessions - Book Now!

It's time for Fall Mini Sessions!

Fall mini sessions are the perfect opportunity for updating your family portraits in a beautiful setting, as well as getting new pictures for your annual holiday card. I've had a number of people inquire so far this year and I'll be honest, there's a new challenge I'm attempting to overcome this season which is what has been the hold-up in getting these dates live.

In the past, I've set aside a day on the calendar to shoot a number of sessions all at one location within a few hours of each other. While this has worked decently well enough, there are pros and cons to this type of set-up.

Pros include a lower price point (positive for you!), being able to get them all knocked out in one day (positive for me!), and being able to fit in more sessions while the beautiful fall colors are out (positive for everyone!). However, shooting mid-day (or close to it) brings with it the challenge of working with the harshest light of the day, in addition to my personal exhaustion by the end of the day. Let's just say the last session of the day was often not my best work. And that wasn't fair to anyone!

In addition to this, the new challenge I have this year is that I will be on call for a few births during the peak fall foliage season! Rather than risk the chance of having to postpone an entire day of sessions for 6+ families in case I am called into a birth, I came up with a different option that I think helps resolve most of the challenges mentioned above.

For 2015, I am booking a limited number of sessions throughout the peak fall foliage season at my current session rate. Once the calendar flips to 2016, my session pricing will be doubling. What does that mean?

Booking a 2015 Fall Mini Session is your last chance to book a session with me at the rate of $150!

I may or may not be running around like a chicken with its head chopped off today. Wait. Have you ever seen that? I have a friend from high school who was scarred by witnessing that very scene in-person... she grew up on a farm and to this day does not like chickens. I always smile when I think of that... then I have a wake-up call and wonder what the heck my girls will be scarred by as children that may follow them into adulthood.

I digress!

Today! Big day.....!! 

July Birth Photography Q&A

July Birth Photography Q&A

A few weeks ago my friend Emily and I threw out into the social media world our big idea about hosting an online Birth Photography Q&A. We opened 10 seats and we crossed our fingers that someone would register! Maybe even two people?? Imagine our surprise when all ten spots were filled in less than an HOUR. Ah!

It's Launch Day!!! Wooohooo!!!

What a WHIRLWIND! Less than two months ago Tommy and I had a coaching session with Katelyn James (more on that later) and we made the huge decision to change the name of my business and completely re-brand (more of the WHY also later). I immediately contacted the amazing Allie Rice and she helped us roll out a new brand, logo and website in just a few weeks!
