I have had such a crazy but exciting week! I have been so behind on getting new products up in the store that I have been sitting, this week I managed to get 2 of our newest artists up on the site as well as a new Photo Purse manufacturer……and I am so excited!

Here is a peak at two of the newest products:

Above are our newest jewelry artisan who does a fabulous vintage collection of heirloom jewelry! I will definitely be ordering a piece for myself. We have finished adding a few of those items to our store, but we have a lot more from this artist to add so stay tuned!

The other is a Custom Accordian Album with an image and elegant fabric all pulled together to create a unique gift idea that will thrill anyone!

If you have not checked out the site, you may want to take a peak at the New Products category, there is a lot from this week and we are no where near done yet! We still have another line of new Custom Photo Purse, more jewelry and other fun products!

We are also thrilled to announce that we were chosen as a business to be profiled in an article for Entrepreneur recently! This was a big deal for us and the article was also picked up on Yahoo News as well as thestreet.com!

It has been a really exciting week for us and I have some other really big things coming up that I hope to be able to share soon!

My life has never been the same since I became a Mom. You have shown me the true meaning of love and joy and I can never put into words the pure happiness you have brought into my life. Being your Mom is my first priority..your happiness is my most important job…at 5.5 years old you are the most thoughtful, mild mannered, funny, smart and beautiful little girl you can be. I can never thank you enough for choosing me to be your Mom. Every Mother’s Day I reflect back on my life with you and the life I thought I had without you….I realized I never had a “life” until I had you.

To all the Mom’s out there….take a moment sit back and think about the joy your children bring every day. In this crazy world we forget to take the time to contemplate how good our lives really are. Make sure you hug those little ones and tell them just how special they are to you….

I hope everyone has the most beautiful Mother’s Day!!!!

Here’s to you peanut butter…….the best darn kid in the world!!!!  Now, let’s go have one awesome Mother’s Day together……

Due to the overwhelming requests of our customers for digital images and because we have come to realize that our portrait clients somehow want ALL of their session images, we have changed our pricing.

Our session fee will remain $300 with $200 of that amount being credit towards your portrait order. We have also incorporated (2) Collections that are the same, the only difference is the quantity of images you get in the package and the discount you qualify for when ordering any additional portraits. We have simplified it! In addition, we have lowered our standard portrait prices, yes you heard right LOWERED them!

The galleries have been updated a bit too, so take a peak! There will be more new images being uploaded soon-I just ran out of time! The lifestyle sessions have been a huge success and I am thrilled to be allowed to capture so many families just being themselves!

I love this idea! Great for gifts or for your next party…Jones Soda (which is super yummy by the way!) lets you upload your own images to be used on their bottles of soda.

Choose your favorite flavor(s), upload your images and in a few days, get a great 12-pack of soda with your image on it! This will definitely make people talk!

I have been really bad about posting new session images lately, but am going to get back into the swing of things here! I had the thrill yesterday of meeting “I” and being the one lucky enough to capture her at “almost” 1! It has been a while since I have done this age and forgot how fun it is! She was such a clown and just wanted to make me laugh almost the whole time I was there! Here is a little sneak peak for Mom & Dad … I hope you enjoy them, you have plenty more coming!

I just found this adorable company called TogetherBook.com, they will take your printed images and bind them into an adorable little book. They have gorgeous cover options and seem like a great product! I have not tried them out, but I plan on it! This is a great motivation to have everyone get those pictures OFF the computer or even worse, your camera card!
