Christmas in July

147 days until Christmas or the we look at it 147 days until you’re holiday cards need to go out! (well a few days less than that since you have to take into account mailing time). If you know that you would like to send out holiday cards this season, give us a call so we can put you on the calendar. The earlier you schedule the better. Many of our clients love to use outdoor photos from either their summer or fall shoots. To be honest, I don’t blame them. Who wouldn’t want to receive a beautiful, clear sky, outdoor family portrait taken in Cleveland while snow falls and ice covers the streets in December? It’s just a sweet reminder of what we had not too long ago and will be waiting a long time to see again. So, although we have had nice weather for the last week, don’t count on it staying that way for much longer. Take advantage of the few short months we have. It doesn’t hurt just to pick a date because just in case it rains we can always push back the shoot to another (possibly rain-free) day. And just to get your wheels turning, below are a few examples of the various custom designed photo holiday cards we have designed…

Father’s Day is just around the corner! June 20th to be exact. And what could be better than giving your dad or grandpa a family photo or a portrait of his kids or grandkids on Father’s Day??? Whether you had a shoot recently or had one a while back, a photo for that special man in your life is a great gift idea that will last a lifetime! We also offer specialty items such as cufflinks and keychains! Call us today so that we can make sure you get your order in time!

Happy Father’s Day!

Amazing Outdoor Autumn Photos!

For the fourth year, I got the treat of spending an afternoon taking outdoor family photos with Mr. R and Miss E (and their parents, of course)! These kids are definitely some of my favorite people around! They are so cute, and so sweet– and always excited to play and take pictures! Taking advantage of the extraordinary beauty of the autumn leaves, we explored areas of Chagrin were every turn provided a new picturesque backdrop! You just need to watch out for Mr. Water Snake, right guys?!?

So much fun playing in the leaves!

Miss E treated me to an original song she composed for me. I think it should be #1!!!

Family Photo Video Slideshow

Here is a sample of the new and improved video slideshows we’re presenting your photos with…! This video is from a outdoor location session that was part Bar Mitzvah photos, part family photos, and part child portraits. These videos have been a huge hit in the studio– so many people have wanted to take them home with them, give them as gifts to grandparents, or even post them to Facebook, that we’ve added them to our product line!

Check it out!

Perfect Little Ladies

Kim — Thu, 28 May 2009 22:52:04 +0000

This family photo session was a part of a bigger surprise photo shoot for Grandma & Grandpa’s anniversary… Shhhhh! I met these little ladies years ago through the Playmatters mini-sessions, and have been lucky enough to photograph them numerous times! This was the first time we involved Mom & Dad, and went outside for an outdoor family portrait session.

Miss A and Miss E are the sweetest little angels-- always so polite & sweet! But thank goodness Mom brought those Smarties!!
