Halloween Pictures were a HIT!

We were graced with the presence of around 800 ghoulish, adorable, amazing & jaw-dropping costumed people on Halloween! It was a non-stop crazy event and all the pictures we took for the treat portion of trick-or-treating are terrific!

If you came by to visit us and had your picture taken, your free 4x6 is done and ready to be picked up. If you didn't come to visit us and have your picture taken, you are still welcome to come into our building and admire all those amazing costumes we got to see! There's well over 300 images on the wall right now, most of them with multiple kids in them so there's plenty to check out!

Trick-or-Treating!

It's never too early to mention Halloween, right? Especially since I've been hearing about Halloween from my daughter for the past 5 months about what kind of costume she's going to wear. Every morning, without fail, there's some new update on what she wants to do. I think she finally has it figured out though. Thank goodness!!

This little guy is whom I called "Turtle". Conveniently enough, his costume was of a turtle and he was the only turtle that we saw last year at the trick or treating event in Duvall so the nickname wasn't much of a stretch. :) He also came to be photographed with Santa, and with our duckies for the sessions in the springtime.

In case you haven't heard, Duvall is THE place to be for trick or treating!! We have over 70 businesses in town participating from 3pm-6pm on Halloween handing out candy and treats. Each year, our treat to you is a free 4x6 of your costumed cutie in our spooky scene. Pictures will be ready for pick-up by Friday, November 6th.

Sorry for the lag between posts, it's been crazy busy around here with high school seniors doing the yearbook scramble (deadlines are during October and the first part of November) and families coming in for sessions, and all the fun sessions we've been doing outside in the leaves! I have plenty of things to post to the blog, it's just finding the elusive time to do so!

Keep an eye on the portrait website...there's going to be a huge change shortly! :) Also, all the images in the senior website's galleries are brand new!

Happy Fall!!

Families, Santa and Halloween Updates!!

Two specials to announce! First, Santa said he could tear himself away from overseeing the elves at the North Pole and come hang out here to see what good girls and boys we have in the area. Although, he'll have to keep working on toys while he's here, hopefully kids won't mind helping Santa make toys. :) This will be on Saturday, December 6th from 10am-2pm. Don't forget I have a knack for picking the one day in December that it will snow for Santa's visit so be prepared. :) We'll be photographing regardless of the weather (unless of course, it's so snowy the reindeer can't see to fly!) and I'll update here on the blog about Santa's journey from the North Pole.

Second, mini sessions for families on November 15th! Perfect small sessions for getting everyone together for gifts for the holidays and greeting cards. Sessions last 30 minutes, 1 outfit, numerous poses to choose from. $400 for the package covers the session, 3 gift portraits (up to an 8x10 size) and 24 greeting cards (choose between postcards style or the ever popular 5x7 folded style; we can send you home with envelopes to address ahead of time!).

Ok, one more thing...for the month of November I'll have holiday themed sessions available. I'm only photographing them until the end of the month and November is already half-booked. Do not wait until the last minute! The theme we did last year that was so popular was "Twas the Night Before Christmas" and it will be back again this year! I also have plenty of other things we can photograph, just depends on what kind of look you would like!



Ok, ONE more thing!! This is it, I promise!! Halloween is right around the corner. Duvall is doing their annual trick-or-treating downtown from 3-6pm on Halloween and there's over 100 businesses in the downtown area participating. We will, of course, be handing out candy like everyone else, but I will also have a Halloween background up to photograph in. Last year, we tried out BYOC (bring your own camera) but that didn't work so well since most people didn't have one with. This year, I'll be taking the pictures and printing a free 4x6 for everyone to come by and pick up starting Monday after Halloween.
