November is the month of giving thanks. And I can’t express how thankful I am that I have been given this opportunity in my life to capture your families and children as you all journey through life.

The first year of your child’s life goes by in the blink of an eye. The changes that they go through from the time they’re a newborn until when they’re blowing out that big candle on their first birthday are utterly amazing. Don’t let a moment slip by! We are now offering 2 different baby plans to capture your child as they journey through their first year of life.
This plan might be different than what you are used to seeing, where you are told to come at specific intervals. We wanted to do something different and more flexible, so you can capture your child at whichever moment you want (or if you’re past the newborn phase, you can use it for moments later into the first year). So, while our plan does have a recommended timeline, we are happy to be flexible and see you whenever you’d like within the first year!
Here are the details and both of these packages can be purchase through our online ordering site. These are also a great way to give the mom-to-be in your life a gift that will stay with her forever.
First Footprints – $275
Our first year baby plan takes you from capturing your tiny newborn in the first weeks of life, all the way through their first birthday. This package covers 3 separate sessions through the first year at whichever increments of time you prefer. We recommend having newborn, 6 month and 1 year sessions, however we are happy to do whatever suits your style.
This package also includes:
We also have a combo maternity/first year session as well.
Bump to Birthday – $500
This is a combination of our first year baby plan with an additional maternity session included. This package covers 4 separate sessions beginning with a maternity session and 3 additional sessions taking you through the first year, at whichever increments of time you prefer.
This package also includes:
Wow, I can’t believe the amazing response that we had to the portfolio building promotion in July! Thank you to all that have booked with me and have been sending referrals my way. Your support means the world to me in helping my photography business get off the ground. There aren’t words to express how thankful I am to each of you!
If you missed your chance at the complimentary session, fear not! I am now offering discounted sessions at 50% off their regular rate. This is still a great opportunity to have your familiy or children’s portraits taken in time for getting together those holiday cards (I know it’s only August, but we all know how quickly that will go by!) or for getting those senior portraits taken at the beginning of the school year.
But, be sure to book quickly as there are only a few weekend spots remaining in September and October. I’m happy to also book into early November for outdoor sessions with the understanding that the weather may not cooperate, but we’ll make the most of it. To see the dates that are still available please visit our website at www.tentinytoesphoto.com and click on the Calendar link.
This discount will be good on any sessoins that are booked by December 31, 2009.
Hope you have all been having a wonderful summer! I can’t believe school will be starting back up in just a few weeks. The time is flying by WAY too quickly!
I am happy to announce that I am now taking bookings for my free portfolio building sessions! What does this mean? I’m looking to expand my experience and portfolio of maternity, babies, kids, families and high school seniors.
I am not charging any session fee and I will also throw in 2 free 5×7’s of the images of your choice. All I ask for in return is that you sign a model release so that I am able to use the images on my website, marketing and as part of my portfolio. This offer is good on anything booked through July 31 or any previously scheduled sessions.
