It’s October and finally they are available!! I’ve had so many people ask if and when I was doing these this year and now we’re finally ready!
These sessions are short mini-studio sessions designed to get only those few images you need for your holiday card and gifts for family and friends.
The $100 mini-session fee includes up to 20 minutes of session time & 24-custom designed photo cards. (Upgrade to 24 custom designed press printed cards for an additional $25. The press printed cards are sized at 5×7 and are double-sided. Several base design options are available for a completely custom and one-of-a-kind Holiday greeting that gets noticed!)
And now for the fine print…
HOLIDAY DEADLINES
- Last Day to book a session and receive press printed cards is : Nov. 1st
- Last Day to book a session for holiday portraits: Nov. 15th
- All orders must be received by Nov. 28th. Orders that come in after this deadline, will be delivered AFTER the holidays.
- Book your session now as available dates and times fill quickly!
** In an effort to accommodate as many of our clients as much as possible for the holidays, we will be limitting full sessions before the holidays. However, If you book a Holiday Mini prior to the Nov. 15th deadline, and you would still like a full-studio session, you can come back in Janurary or Feburary and your entire Traditional session fee ($150) will be applied as a print credit. This is ONLY valid if you book a Holiday Mini and only good for sessions taking place in Janurary or Feburary 2009.
*Additional Terms and Conditions Apply.

SO that means I only have 4 Saturdays available to book,

October 4 and
October 18! That’s it! Holy Moly this year went fast.
Also, if you have had a session within this past year, call me and we can talk about using one of your chosen images as this years Holiday Card.
Oh and check back later this week to see some of the fantastic new Holiday Card designs we have.
Ok I can’t wait, this is my favourite…

2. I am love trashy complicated well written period romance novels.
3. I need to have all the food in my cupboards lined up neat and tidy with the labels facing forward. Now I don’t alphabetize them, that would just be too quirky.

5. I have a taste of chocolate hidden in about half a dozen different places. Yes I am an addict.
