Easter Special

Everyone's been asking about when we'll be doing our Easter Special this year, so it's time I got something out there.

This year we'll be doing our Easter special for two weeks.... March 15h - March 27th. Here are your options for the discounted mini sessions:

Basic Easter Session: $50
This 20 minute mini session, includes three full resolution image files with copyrights emailed to you and an 8x10 gift print.

Deluxe Easter Session: $85
This 20 minute, mini session includes a complete CD with all the full reolution images (copyrights released), plus an 8x10 gift print.

Additional prints will be avaialable at our discounted print prices for a limited time:

4x6 - $3
5x7 - $5
8x10 - $8
Wallets - $5/dozen

After March 30th, the rates will go up.

Easter Scenes: As in previous years, we'll have the The Old Fashioned Park Scene and Spring Garden Scene. We'll also have solid colored backgrounds for a more contemporary look. We'll help you choose the background that goes the best with your child/children's outfits.

Rules and Exclusions:

The easter special mini sessions will be avilable March 15th - 27th only. Each session fee is good for 1 or 2 children. Additional children will cost $15 each. Adding children usually increases the length of the sitting and the number of images taken.

Larissa and her associate photographer Devin will be covering all the sessions. You may request one or the other if you have a preferance. Just be sure to mention the photographer you want when you call to boook.

Baby and Maternity Photos in Belleville, Illinois

I had a good time working with today's clients. Here are a couple of my favs:
Mallory is just the cutest and sweetest pregnant gal ever. She has the most adorable round basketball belly and was just so fun to work with today. Love this carefree image of her.
Jacob was SO CUTE today. He has this funny little scrunched up smile that he does. It's so incredibly adorable. This was one of his regular smiles, so sweet.

And Peyton was seriously the most adorable little thing today. Her mommy made her this CUTE little tutu and she was so incredibly precious in it. I LOVED capturing these shots of her. Appropriate for the Valentine's season and oh so girly. There were quite a few in this series but I loved this expression. Just so oddly cute.

Valentine's Cards... sneak peek at designs

I painted my daughters' toenails pink the other day and it inspired me to do some new shots of them for the Valentine's card samples. So here are a few designs that I made up. I'm pretty excited about my idea for these cards. They're not ordinary cards. These are actually wallet sized photos with a valentine's greeting and one or two photos on them. I'll be offering sets of these cards for only $10/set.

Our Educational Vacation

I'm sorry for not posting more frequently guys. We've been surprizingly busy even in our slow season. Right now we're at PPA (Profssional Photographers of America) convention in Nashville Tennesse. We're learning all sorts of great things and how to take better pictures.

The resort we're at is beautiful. It's called the Glorlyland Opry Hotel/Resort. It's HUGE and even has an entire river inside! I'll post pictures later.

We've met some other great photographers and have shared ideas and learned from them as well. Yesterday we met Jeff and Julia Woods, Vickie and Jed Taufer (from V Gallery), and Jerry Giohnis (one of the top wedding photographers in the world). It's been a blast so far, but we're looking forward to getting home.

Hope you're all doing well and that we'll get to see you at the studio soon!

Union Station Photo Shoot

TJ and I just finished a senior session out at Union Station today. Not only did we get some great shots, but I got some fudge! Gotta love that fudge factory. =)

It was fun to work in a place we don't get to shoot in every day and there were lots of great photo spots. Maria and her friends were so much fun to work with. Here are a few shots from Maria's senior session in Downtown St. Louis at Union Station.
