Christmas Baby Announcements

I love this soft gray for babies.  Spencer's skin looks so soft and sweet.  This is a cute postcard announcement from his newborn baby session.  The card will be printed on pearl paper for a really warm and sparkly look.

 

 

 

Christmas at the Beach

Nothing like living at the beach.  When it comes to celebrating Christmas we rather like the warm, white ground cover.  Here we call it sand.  And unlike the Northern variety - it actually feels good between your toes.  Ben and Bear are always so much fun to photograph.  Bear was a really good sport reindeer ears and all.
 Mom and Dad selected a 5x5 Trifold card.   It's easy to see why - there are so many adorable photos of this little boy.  Use your imagination.  Both side panels fold into the center to make a 5x5 square card.  When you open the card the message flap is on the right and a photo is on the left.

 

 

 

This is the inside.  The left and right photos fold in onto the center 4 photos.

Playful Christmas Postcard

I love when my clients select playful images.  Family life can be so hectic and crazy.  It's difficult when taking the photos yourself to get casual images of sweet, family fun. 

Vacation Christmas Cards

Professional Family Portraits taken on vacation make great Christmas Cards.  At certain ages your children will not change much over a 6-9 month period of time.  That's a real advantage when it comes to Christmas Cards.  If we photographed your family anytime in 2013 we can use your portraits for Christmas Cards.  Just give us a call and we'll design a custom Christmas Card with a few of your favorites.

 

Beach Christmas Card

I'd love to get a sweet Christmas Card like this in the mail from one of my friends.  These children are so cute.  I love photographing their family at Christmas each year.  What a great way to chronicle how your children grow and change.  You can get a real feel for their playful personalities with this Christmas card.

Christmas Cards with Pets

Christmas cards with pets are really fun.  Sharing your family pets with friends and family is a sweet way to give them a little peek into your world.  Most dog and cat lovers would agree, pets are simply furry family members.  Some would say a Christmas photo would not be complete without them.  I love photographing Kona.

A trifold card takes a little imagination to proof.  From left to right - This will be the inside right panel when the card is folded - the back appears in the center and the front cover is on the right.

The family image is on the left and will appear next to the Holiday message when the card opens.  This is the view when both panels are open.

I love, love Beach Photo Christmas Cards

We loved photographing Roxy and family.  Gus is the dog whisperer for high energy dogs - he just does not give up until he gets the shot.  Roxy loves carrots can you imagine that.  Very funny - I've never heard of a dog loving carrots.  Love the rich jewel tones of this card, but it could easily have been taupe with the color of Roxy's coat.  This will be a 5x7 horizontal fold over card.

Christmas Card Mini Sessions

I know you are still eating Halloween candy, but it's time to get serious about Christmas Card photos.  Kyds Children's Boutique at 200 First Street in Beaches Town Center is full of really cute Holiday dresses and outfits and we have our holiday designs ready to go.  Thought you might like to see this really simple, sweet one.  And yes, Leighton is wear a dress and accessories from Kyds.  The image is perfect for a fold over Christmas Card, a postcard or an ornament card.  Christmas card photo sessions are a fun family experience.  Imagine getting dresses up in your festive holiday stuff,  laughing and genuinely smiling with your children while someone else takes your family photos.  No running in and out the photo. Fixing clothes, fixing hair, singing "Wheels On The Bus" and taking photos at the same time.  We'll do all that and when we're done you'll actually want to take your kids out for ice cream.  Call me.  We only have one month of sunsets to work with and as you might have guessed some of your friends are already on the calendar.  40 mph winds have calmed so let's get out on the beach. We have mini sessions and studio sessions available too.

Custom photo cards and invitations for Eagle Scouts

Our studio designs and produces custom photo cards and invitations for all occasions.  This is an announcement with an invitation for Josh's Eagle Scout Court of Honor celebration.  We photographed Josh's senior portraits last month in Indianapolis and his parents had the foresight to have a few images taken of him in his Boy Scout uniform to use for this announcement and invitation combination.  We actually walked around downtown and along the river to see the trail where his project starts.  His Eagle Scout project included video taping additional, more strenuous, exercises that can be done along a fitness trail by using your smart phone and a posted QR code at each station.  What a great idea and really well done.  Way to go Josh!
