Wow, this year has been a busy one for my family and I! 

In May, we welcomed the newest member of our family, Logan Alexander, and have spent the past few months getting to know him and how he fits in with the rest of the bunch.  He's a spunky, bright personality and we all just love to squish on him! 


September is almost upon us, which means my oldest will be starting Kindergarten!  We homeschool, so that means Mommy is starting Kindergarten, too! 

All of these happy events are wonderful for our family, but they leave very little time and energy for running a successful photography business!  It's always been my goal and my mission to put my family's needs before anything else I have going on, and with that in mind, I've decided to take a step away and hang up my "entrepreneur" hat for a short while.  My babies are only babies for a teeny, tiny span of time, and the best place for me to be right now is concentrating on them 100%. 

I'm not stepping away from photography altogether, just taking a break from the day-to-day, time consuming aspects of being a business owner.  Marketing, advertising, networking....these are all great things, but they are things that take me away from my family in a time when they need me very much.  For those who might be interested, I am definitely still shooting portraits for any clients who would like to book sessions.  I just won't be as "present" on the blog, the facebook page, and the website. 

I'm hoping this next year or so will lead me to explore and develop my photography skills even further, to push my creativity, and to make the most of the time I've been given to teach my children.  I'm not exactly sure when I'll be ready to take up the reins again.  Only time will tell.  But rest assured that when I do, it will be with much excitement, enthusiasm, and many, many, many fun things to share!

Announcing the 2011 Sweetheart Sessions

 

Yep, that's right!  In February only, you can save $30.00 off of the normal session fee ($75.00).  

Sweetheart Sessions are perfect for lovebirds, but are great for other occasions too.  Every Sweetheart Session includes all the same great perks as the Freedom Portrait Session: a 90 minute session, online gallery proofs, a selection of enlargements, and a fun, personalized portrait experience.  Plus, every Sweetheart Session will include a free 12 x 12 customized collage that is perfect for framing.  Clients will be able to choose from three finished collage styles.  

Sweetheart Sessions MUST take place in the month of February, so if you're interested, book fast!  Times and days are very limited, and once booking slots are gone, they're gone for good!
