Christmas Shopping

I know it is super early to be thinking about Christmas already, but hear me out...
Last year I did what I thought I would never do, that was turn away business because I was to busy for customers that came to me in December looking to have portraits completed as gifts for Christmas. So here I am now, putting a little bug in your ear about booking the session a few months before in order to have your portraits completed and ready in time.
Most are thinking about back to school and if you have anyone going off to college, there is still time to do a sitting before they are out of the nest. For the younger families, Fall is also around the corner and the beautiful colors of the leaves make for an awesome background. And if you like the classic look, we can always do a studio session.

Tell you what I am going to do... I am going to give you an incentive for "shopping early". If you book a session before September 16th, I will add a $75.00 print credit to be applied to your finished print order. Call the studio to schedule a portrait session anytime from now 'til November, and I will apply the print credit towards your portraits. The canvas prints have been a huge hit and I have also included what I call the Old Masters to the studio catalog. The Old Masters is an amaizing painting 0f one of the images from your session that I forward to my artist and she creates an oil painting on canvas.

Other shopping ideas -
Incase the Traditional, Canvas, or Old Masters prints aren't enough I also have a large assortment of items to put your portraits on from keychains, mugs, calendars, dry erase boards, photo books, Christmas cards, ornaments, mouse pads, shoulder bags, money clips, dog tags, tumble stone prints, coasters, business card holders and pendents.
Purchase a Portrait Session for someone else, I have gift certificates.

How about the perfect gift for that baby shower you are attending - a Baby Plan.
This plan includes five sessions:
Maternity
Newborn (also 100 announcement photo cards)
Four Months
Eight Months
First Birthday

This is truly the gift that keeps on giving. So call and book a session now, what are you waiting for? Operators standing by.
