It's that time of year again! Can you believe it? The first sight of yellowing leaves means it's time for the Fall extravaganza to begin. So here we go: it's time for Fall Mini Sessions! We started keeping a Fall Mini list in the early summer and are putting the official word out now. Please call Shawna my Studio Manager ASAP at 406.671.4371 to reserve your slot--it's first come first serve, and Minis book up fast! Minis give you an excellent opportunity to quickly capture glimpses of your family in the moment and important changes that are taking place in your lives. For example, my daughter just started losing her first teeth, and I definitely don't want to miss taking a great photograph of her new grin. Minis are quick and dirty: in a 10-15 minute shoot, I will give you 12-15 great images to choose from. You will choose which images to feature on 50 custom holiday cards (keep reading and you'll see how GORGEOUS they are!!), (1) 8x10 and (2) 5x7s for $395!  I am sneaking one Mini in before it gets really chilly: next Saturday (September 24th) in the afternoon! The second Mini Session date will be Saturday, October 15th (location TBA) with a third possible date to be announced. I'm SO excited to share the holiday card options with you.  We searched long and hard to find a great assortment of cards that will be sure standouts to send to friends and family.  The standard cards are press-printed, two-sided 5x7 flat cards, and we are now offering a few upgraded cards--5x7 folded, 5x5 folded or trifold cards anyone?  Your cards will be the talk of the town (envelopes are included with all cards.)  For guaranteed delivery by the first week of December, the card ordering deadline is November 19th. You can definitely order past this date but realize that the cards will be rush orders (up charge) if you want them in time to mail for Christmas. Just an FYI--full family fall/winter sessions are booking quickly!  Full sessions are the most fabulous way to capture your family at any time in your life, reflecting your relationships and interactions having fun, laughing, and loving, showing what is unique to your family, and showcasing all sides of personalities. If you want a fun snow shoot or a December holiday shoot, go for it!! They're a blast, and New Years cards are all the rage! Just be sure to get your session booked ASAP--I'd hate to miss photographing your family!
