HURRY!!! Christmas Sessions now booking!!

Here is the email that went out to our photography clients this morning, wanted those blog followers to have an appointment also!!!..........................

And I am not joking when I say you really need to hurry! :)

As you all probably already know, we shot our Fall sessions this past weekend and I have had three people email me to tell me that saw some of them and were soooo sorry they didn't book! They were super duper cute!!!! I am telling you this because not only did all of the folks from Saturday get a $5.00 discount (if they bought the $35.00 package, which most did!) on the Christmas session, they also got the chance to book their Christmas session appointment before we announced it!! And even more important: THEY ALSO ALL GOT HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES FROM THE CAKE LADY THAT LIVES NEXT TO THE WAREHOUSE WE SHOT AT! They were SOOOOO worth whatever money was spent! lol.

And because we LOVE our repeat clients.....IF you buy Package C at the Christmas session, you get $5.00 off of the Valentine session PLUS you get to register for a FREE 11x14 at our Valentine session!!!

We will be offering the 10x20 storyboard that we had at our sessions Saturday (people fell in LOVE!) and we are planning to add Christmas frames to the frame line this time!! THEY ARE AWESOME!!!!!!

Just to verify - if you want to book - you need to do so soon! I only have ONE, I repeat ONE, morning appointment still available!! They are first come first serve! Fastest one wins!! :)

We are still finalizing details but here is where we are:

They will be shot in the same spot as the Fall and Easter pictures. The warehouse on Walter Bird Drive in Owens Cross Roads.
They will be shot on Saturday, November 6th, 2010.
The set will be suitable for children, pre-teen, teens, adults, couples and families (up to a certain number).
We WILL be offering Christmas cards!

We do have the set in mind - however, we are making some last minute decisions on it this week and will let you know when we are 100% sure what we are doing!! Will also have the prices on the next email - still VERY affordable!!

Email me at mkrogers3081@hotmail.com or call or text me at 256-656-9580 to book! I don't always get to answer during business hours (8:30 - 5:00) but feel free to leave me a message and I will call you back!!

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

AND THANK YOU TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE ALREADY BOOKED YOUR APPOINTMENT!!

Fall

I LOVE this time of year! Starting in September, I just get beside myself. Seems like I get more "crafty" and more creative and just excited all around! I love to decorate when it gets Fall - of course, it would help if I actually had a HOUSE right now! So for now, I'm just in planning mode. Eventually the house will close and I will get to move. I may have to decorate for Christmas when I do but that's okay! :) I was looking through some pictures and found these of Harley from last year and decided to use them on my blog today. It's her Halloween/First Birthday pics and she is soooo cute in them. Have a wonderful Fall day today!!!!
