Christmas already?!?

I know that this is really early, and I really think that Christmas should not start until after Thanksgiving, but I think that showing off some Christmas cards is justified because we need to plan ahead to get these in your hands in time for the Holidays. To start we need to take your portraits. Then pick out that perfect pic, the perfect card to go with it, and then you get to write, stamp, lick and seal!

So really we need to schedule your family portrait for October, which just happens to be Family Portrait Month. And I am donating a portion of all my October portraits to Operation Smile and PPA Charities to help kids with cleft palettes put on a big beautiful new smile.

I have both sleek slimlines (3.5 x 7 or 5 x 7) and folded greeting cards (4 x 5.5, 5 x 5 and 5x7) I can also design a custom card to give you a one of a kind card this Holiday Season. Here are some examples to give you an idea of what your card will look like this Holiday. These are the slimlines, but most of these have a folded version as well. If you already know of a great card and all you need is a photo from our session to put in it, I am now offering a Christmas card release of the photo of your choice. Pick it out and I will get you a high res file of the photo to use at your favorite lab.

Enjoy and give me a call so we can get these ready for you!

A quick disclaimer - these photographs were provided by my print lab and were not taken by me. I just wanted to give you all a sampling of what I can offer

Courtney, Mike, Addison, & Isla

Addison has a new little sister! Courtney and Mike just had a baby and I am proud that I had the opportunity to photograph the new addition to the family at only one month old! Wait until you look at the beautiful eyes that these kids have. Little Isla has some amazing strength and stamina for being so tiny. She gave me a few pushups to show off her clumsy coordination. Also, I want to thank Addison for sharing popsicle sticks with me and Pam...

The Graham's!!

Ault Park has a lot of potential and was the backdrop for my session with the Graham's. Michael and Kara have two beautiful children, Ryan and Ellie, who were a lot of fun. A joke and a smile at every turn. They even shared the spotlight well. Each took turns sneaking into the others photo. We started out at the pavilion and made our way over to the playground for some swinging and sliding. Thanks for spending a Saturday morning with me!

My favorite has to be "Super Brother" Scroll down and you will see what I mean.

The McFarlands!!

Another Bases referral - I am going to have to run a year round Bases special with all of the business you all are sending my way.

What a family! I had a great time with the McFarlands. Ashley, Richard, Nancy, Junior, Amanda, Chris, Kalysta, and Ethan, you guys were great. It was a squeeze getting all of us in the proofing room afterwords, but we made it work. Chris and Richard are firemen in Northern Kentucky and we had to grab some with the kids wearing the oversized hats. Thanks for spending the morning with me.
