{my story}
This is it. The blog, the bloggity blog as I like to call it. Where I will attempt to keep you up to date on the haps around the studio and what's been going on in my life.
My story? What is my story? Most of ya'll know it. I'm an open book. I love my girl. I love my job (I seriously hate to call it a job, because no job should rock this much). But, most importantly, I love my life!
My clients are my friends. When we first meet, it will be strictly business. You may have heard of me but, you probably don't know me. I guarantee when you leave the studio, our relationship will be more than just that of photographer/client.
So, bring it! See ya soon... jamie

Here you go girl… you rocked it out!!
Normally when we head down to the beach I always have sessions but, this time I didn’t. I took all my gear anyway because I knew I’d want to photograph something and not have and I am soooo glad I did! I met Kara the day before we were leaving. She had been trying to find a senior portrait photographer at the beach and had no luck! Fortunately, she knew a friend of a friend of a friend and we hooked up!! She was a trooper! We met at the crack o’ dawn… literally – 5:45 right before sunrise. I must say, the beach was BEAUTIFUL! What was even more exciting was how beautiful she was. We had a few set backs (boo foggy lenses) but, ended the morning with some amazing images. Thanks so much Kara!!! 



Yep. You read it. We’re mixing things up a little this year… don’t worry, fear not, Santa will still be here in November BUT, this year we are offering Christmas in July {outdoor} family sessions!
If you are like most of us, the holiday season is pure CHAOS! Between parties, shopping, out of town guests, family and the hustle and bustle of the season, the last thing you want to worry with is getting the family together (okay, the husband) for family portraits! SO, DON’T DO IT! And we all know how the money is stretched thin during the holly jolly time.
Break away from the red and green card with your screaming child in Santa’s lap!! Send something that your family can keep forever. Our custom {holiday} cards feature up to 3 images on the front with wording then a full-sized frame-able image on the back. This way your card not only tells your loved ones happy holidays but, they also have a gift print too!
———————————————————————————————–
30 minute outdoor FAMILY {mini} sessions Friday, July 23rd and Saturday, July 24th
{mini} sessions are $50 and have {NO} clothing changes
We do ask that you come dressed and ready for your session as there will be no where to change once you arrive.
