Flowers & Lollipops – 1st Birthday Session

Thursday, May 4, 2017 4:06 pm

Little “J” came in to celebrate her first birthday. When mom showed me her first outfit, I already had this new backdrop in mind. It was perfect for J and her siblings. Although it’s floral, it doesn’t say “girls only.” I think older brother J looks great with it, right? Anyway, we got a few of them together first; which is always the toughest when it comes to siblings. We then followed with individual portraits, changed little J and I put together the second set.

Because I didn’t have a backdrop on hand that I thought went well with her outfit, my graphic designer and I came up with a design and had it printed just for her. I think it’s perfect! And the great thing about it is that I already have ideas for using it again.

Little J didn’t have cake, but I found a cute, large fluffy cupcake for her to play with and mom brought a yummy lollipop. Her face needed to be wiped a few times in between shots since sometimes, those colors looked a little crazy as they mixed up on her face. She was a blast to play peek-a-boo with and I’m so glad that I was able to catch some of those priceless, adorable expressions.

New Partnership with Tiny Prints

Friday, April 14, 2017 10:51 am

As most of you know, we have partnered with Mpix as a special incentive for those of you who have ordered Digital Images from your session.

But if you didn’t order digital images and would like to take advantage of a great online company that can use one or more of your session images for holiday and special occasion photo cards, this is for you!

We have partnered with Tiny Prints to help with the ordering and printing of your Holiday/Special Occasion cards. Tiny Prints is a leading retailer of premium personalized holiday photo cards and has been recognized for their high quality prints and unmatched customer service.

From here, you can shop for any product on the Tiny Prints site or review a few of our favorite choices.

We are using an “escrow system” to help manage your images. This system is a way for us to release the images directly to your Tiny Prints account to order a card. You will not have access to the original image file as part of this system, but will be able to use it on the card of your choice. Your first image is FREE. Each following image you would like to use is $1.50 each. (Invoiced via email)

For clients who want to use their purchased digital images, we can uploaded them all for you for FREE or you may choose to upload them yourselves.

When you are ready to order, please let us know and we will upload your chosen photo(s) into the Tiny Prints Escrow system. After you pay your invoice (if more than one image) We will then send you a unique code (photo key) for each image, which you can use in the card creation process in the “add a photo” stage to retrieve that image into your personal Tiny Prints account. Once you have retrieved the image, you can use it on any card for up to 30 days. Your card will be printed with the high resolution version of the photo.

ENJOY!

* Studio Attribution – Clicking on our co-branded Tiny Prints Storefront also ensures that we receive credit for referring a customer to Tiny Prints. This includes our studio name on the back of the cards that you order with a small text based attribution. If you have a concern with our studio name being printed on the back of your cards, you have the option of removing it in the card preview section. The text-based attribution is small, fits in well with the design on the back of the card and is movable.

A Dog & His Boy – Newborn Session

Wednesday, April 5, 2017 12:57 pm

Teddy brought in his 5 day old baby brother to have his newborn portraits taken. Teddy and his family just moved to Whidbey Island a little over a month ago. Although Teddy was super excited, he was very patient as we got his little brother settled into different props and positions. He watched me very closely. You can tell he’s going to be a great big brother. Baby “P” pretty much slept throughout the entire session. Even though he was sleepy, he was very particular when it came to what positions he would sleep in. So it took some time to get him comfy and content, but overall it was a perfect session.
