I know we need the rain, but this week is a little over the top! And of course it’s stragtegically placed exactly one week before school starts.

And speaking of school – and Back to School. This weekend is TAX FREE WEEKEND! Usually this would be of no interest to my clients unless they had an ordering session this weekend. But in the spirit of Back to School and having a sale I am offering my own special.

Now through Sunday night at midnight enjoy

30% off any Gallery Wrapped Canvas or

40% off any Mounted Wall Portrait!

And now for another edition of

If your session is featured remember to contact me before next Friday to claim your free session and 8×10!

I’m way behind on sneak peeks….but will try to share more soon!

-New and future clients are welcome to participate, but a deposit should be made on your session date.

-Applies to sales this weekend only. Orders already placed cannot be adjusted.

Thanks for the terrific response and have a wonderful weekend~

I hope everyone is enjoying Summer as much as we are. The lack of scheduled activities and homework has been so liberating….I could get used to this! But thankfully the studio is still keeping my feet on the ground. Here’s what I’ve been up to lately:

And I think someone mentioned it’s FRIDAY! Well, I’m in a fun mood so let’s get on with

and for fun we’ll have three potential winners for this week!

Go splash in the pool and I’ll see you here soon with more sneak peeks!

It’s fairly predictable that my blog will be neglected over the fun summer months. The kids are out of school and I am balancing their activities with a busy studio schedule.  I will make every effort to post more frequently. The studio will be closed for a few days over the Fourth of July, but we’ll be back in full swing after that!

Here are a couple of peeks of what I’ve been up to – Mr. C here came in for his six month session. He was so happy and such a charmer! Big brother posed for some pictures, too (bottom image):

Mr. F has been visiting the studio since he was six months old. I can’t believe he’s three years old already! At the same time, he’s so talkative and smart that you would think he’s four!

And I haven’t forgotten…..

Many of you noticed we didn’t have one for last week. I had every intention of adding one for this week and have three potential winners. However, the schedule is getting tight this summer and I don’t want to make it difficult for the winners to book their sessions. So without further ado….

If your photo is featured be sure to contact me before next Friday for your complimentary session and 8×10!

Go splash in a pool and enjoy the weekend!

Fridays are turning out to be one of the busiest days of the week, so please be patient as you check in for the Flashback Friday contest! Remember to contact me before next Friday if you see your child featured here!

Little Miss A here had the most gorgeous blue eyes and she was so much fun during her session! I hope to see her again soon!

And Mr. C did exactly what he was told – he slept through his newborn session. Since babies tend to look similar as newborns I decided to add a second image from his session .

I hope everyone has a wonderful, relaxing weekend! I have lots of recent work to share here as soon as I can get to posting!

Cheers!

No I didn’t forget the new blog feature – and judging from my web stats today you didn’t, either! I’ve been swimming in sessions to edit – which makes me very happy! So let’s get to it!

I’m sure these two cuties have grown so much since I last saw them! Hope to see you both again soon!

Mom or Dad, be sure to contact me this week to claim your complimentary session and 8×10!

I’ll try to come back and add some sneak peeks!

TGIF!
