In the spirit of the season I am offering a FREE 5x5 hardcover brag book ( a $200 value) with any wedding package booked by January 1st...  okay... we'll make it January 2nd so you can regroup after New Years Eve!! 

Now there is ONE little request for this... I'd love to see a comment ANYWHERE on my blog...  but that's it!!! 



I hope you are all having a WONDERFUL December and holiday season so far...    I'm just prepping myself for the cold weather... as in one week I will be heading back to the Midwest and east coast...  oh, which reminds me...  if anyone is interested in a photo session (portraits, engagement, boudoir... whatever) or... just want to meet up for tea... let me know. I'll be hitting basically the entire state of Michigan, northern Ohio, and the greater NYC area between Dec 20th and January 11th...  would love to see any and all of you!

Happy holidays... thus far!

Love,
A

So the other day I received an invitation to a joint baby shower for not one... but  TWO of my past brides... now this got me thinking... OH MY GOODNESS.. I have so many former brides who are about to expand their families just a bit and a couple who already have (congrats Sara & Gina)!!

Well.. I realized I not only want to see these pretty little things in person ... but I also would love to be a part of their first photo shoot!!

SO... I am offering 25% off any maternity or portrait session to any of my past couples. (and when I say portraits... they can be your grown up babies too).  Just email me to let me know if you would be interested in scheduling a session I'll be all over the country (maybe even Europe... Susannah).. over the next 6 months.

I am sooo exited for all of my happy couples as their families begin to grow!!  Congratulations to all of you... my love goes out to you and your cute little bellies!!

Love,
A

Okay... so they've been engaged for a while now.. BUT... last week I finally got a chance to meet them and do an AWESOMELY fun engagement shoot around the island...  we met at the coffee shop... I handed them my tandem bike ... and away we went..

It seriously may have been the most fun I have ever had with an engagement shoot.  We biked up around Mission Point (where their wedding will be in August), up the East Bluff, around the fort, on the dock...  soooo much fun.  A tour of the island on the back of a tandem... I had such a blast (I think they did too)... excpet of course when we decided to bike up Mission hill... pheeewww... this girl needs to get her bike legs back.

I really hope to do a lot more engagement shoots on the island... it is such a great way to get compfortable with the camera, see the island from a different view, and get pics in a completely relaxed environment!! ... 

**In fact... I am going to offer $100 off any engagement (casual couples shoot if happens after the wedding), for any couple that already has a package with me.. just send me an email.**

Love,
A
