a little business, a little fun
Business first to get that out of the way:
1. Just a friendly reminder- as of 7/1/08, my prices increase by $25. (photoshoot $150, party for 2hrs $250- travel not included in either fee)If you are interested in booking a shoot with me and you do so before 7/1/08 (the shoot itself does not have to be prior to 7/1, just the booking), the prices are as is.
2. I only have a few more summer weekend shoot dates/times available. So, if you are looking for a summer weekend session, you might want to consider booking it now. As of this minute, these are the weekend dates/times available thru September 1st, 2008:
Sunday, June 29th 5pm or later
Saturday, July 12th morning only
Sunday, July 13th anytime
Saturday, July 26th anytime
Sunday, July 27th morning only
I will not be booking anymore sessions during the month of August, so if you are looking for summer, these are the only weekend dates left. Weekdays are open but subject to availability.
3. There are still a number of weekend time slots available in September and October. However, November weekends are booking up really quickly with only limited spaces left already. If you are interested in a November weekend shoot, you might want to book now. Plenty of weekday spots are available in September, October, and November.
4. In order to avoid the "Christmas Crush" of last year, if you’d like a photoshoot with the purpose of having the images as holiday gifts and/or cards made from the images FOR CHRISTMAS or HANNUKAH or NEW YEARS you must have your holiday photoshoot completed by Tuesday, December 9th to ensure holiday delivery. I will not be booking any shoots between December 20th, 2008 and January 10th, 2009.
5. As previously mentioned, I am working with a new card printer this year who is just phenomenal! I will be offering real folding cards in various sizes, including trifold cards, and accordian cards- all custom made with the photos of your choice from your shoot, along with your choice of designs, fonts, colors, finishes, and well, custom everything! I’ll be posting some samples of the trifolds at the end of July along with pricing information. I will still be working with Rockville Camera as last year and creating custom photocards there as well. So you will have your pick of tons of cards this year! And don’t forget, if you are booking a mini session, you will receive a $10 credit toward your card order (from either printer).
6. One final thing…an ammendment to the "growing up squared" plan. I’ve changed things around a bit –so instead of having 4 shoots during a calendar year (jan-dec), you can do your 4 shoots in the plan anytime you’d like within a year of purchase. If you’d like to do 4 in 4 months, great. If you’d like to spread them out, that’s great too. Or anywhere in between. As long as you complete all 4 shoots within one year of purchasing the plan, it’s all good.
The 4 shoots still do not include parties or additional family members. The growing up squared plan shoots remain as full sessions for your immediate family over one year. As of 7/1/08, the fee for the growing up squared plan will be $500.00 for your 4 sessions, payable at the first session. You will still receive the same $100 savings then if you were to book 4 shoots seperately.
Fewf (as in phew-but thats how the boys would say it)…that was a lot of business. Now on to some fun pictures. Took these at the park the other day with the boys just goofin around. Patrick took the ones of Timmy & me. He’s pretty good, no? Warning: A ton of pictures ahead.
