Timm's Senior Pictures!

I had a lot of fun shooting Timm's senior portraits last Friday! This is the slideshow that he will be able to post on his myspace page.

We are considering adding a Toddler Plan

and would like some input from you, our clients!

We are thinking that this would include:

18 month & 2 year sessions with no session fees
Either a 5x7 or 8x10 from each session

If you were to purchase this plan....
Would you prefer to have the 5x7 or 8x10 from these sessions?
What else would you like it to include? A collage at the 2 year session? A collage of both session? A coffee table book? A credit toward a wall portrait of the 2 year session?

Please comment on this blog and let us know what you would like to see included.

Just added a site meter/counter!

Expanding our Baby Plans!

We have added a 4th Baby Plan and added some products to 2 of the existing Baby Plans! I think that future Baby Planners will love the new additions! The Deluxe, Premium, and Watch me grow plans now all include 50 5x7 flat press printed Birth Announcements! Our Watch me grow plan features a coffee table album with all of the ordered images from the plan!

Check out the details of these 4 plans under the Investment page of our website where we have devoted a whole page to our Baby Plans!

Pay your session fee on-line!

A new feature that we have added is the ability for you to pay your session fee on-line! This should be a very nice feature for your convenience! When you call or e-mail to book your session, we will send you our portrait contract via e-mail along with a link to a secure shopping cart to pay your session fee. This will immediately secure your session reservation once you check out using this feature!

We are now mounting ALL of our prints except wallets!

I just realized that I forgot to post that we are now mounting & spraying all of our portraits except wallets!

This is includes our 5x7's and 8x10's!

I have done this for the last few sessions and I'm extremely happy with the results! I can't wait for you to see the results as well!

Also, our session fee has been increased as of 2/12/2008. We have gone to session fees ranging from $250-325 depending on what type of session it is; however, ALL OF OUR SESSION FEES INCLUDE A $200 PRINT CREDIT which will be applied at the preview session. This will help us keep our schedule by appointment only and dedicate our time exclusively for our clients on a one-on-one basis by collecting this when you reserve your session appointment.
