HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yes, I've been MIA again. I have been much to busy too be a good blogger this fall/winter. I did pretty good with facebook until the Holiday Rush really hit. Then it was Christmas. I took off a little time to enjoy with my family for the holidays. I am working this week trying to do some catching up, updating and working on some New Year's promotion.

It was a busy year from spring until Christmas. This was my first full year to do my new SESSION FEE PORTRAIT PACKAGES. So I've had time to see what works and what needed tweaking and I did that along the way, but now I've updated the LINK to reflect the changes. So feel free to check that out. It includes more specific details than when originally created.

Stay tuned for a poll that I plan to start today or tomorrow about my new PORTRAIT EVENT.

A VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO YOU MY CLIENTS WHO HAVE REPEATED CHOSE ME AS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER. I LOVE EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU AND FEEL LIKE YOU ARE A PART OF MY EXTENDED FAMILY. WISHING YOU A GREAT YEAR!

~~jami~~

P.S. I am taking off the next few weeks for a trip with my family to celebrate 25 years as a family. Yes, my husband and I celebrated 25 years of marriage and we're celebrating it with our whole family. After all we have the rest of our lives to be alone, but what a special time to celebrate our love with the family we created.

MIA...and a little rambling.

HELLO BLOGGING FOLKS...

not sure how many of you are still out there. I wonder if you have found yourself more into facebook than blogging...oh never mind, that's me!

So yes, I have been MISSING IN ACTION...what looks like 2 months since my last post. School is back in session. My daughter is a senior high school. YIKES!!! My beautiful, little, sweetheart granddaughter is in "real" school, aka, Kindergarten. Cotton is being harvested and my hubby is ginning cotton and the fall/holiday season of portrait has begun here. I've been doing my PORTRAIT SESSION FEE PACKAGES now for a year.

Overall the new way of doing buisness has been good. [See all the images on facebook.] Since it has now been a year, a year of trial an error, I think it is time to tweak my pricing and really advertise it. I think people are loving owning their own digital files and I am loving consistent income that comes with this type of session fee package plan. I am still over working them...which why I think it is time to tweak a bit, but overall I think this is "just right". So stay tuned as I update the link that is called, PORTRAIT SESSION FEE PACKAGES. It will remain the same page, I will just edit. So be sure and look again if you have been interested in booking a session, but haven't. There may be changes made by the time you actually book your session.

If you haven't been on facebook lately take a look. There's a link provided to the left. I recently held a contest for upcoming LSU/SAINTS PORTRAIT EVENTS that is coming up next Saturday, October 16th. There are three more sessions availabe for Saturday and a few for Friday morning (the 15th). So check that out. Congrats to the winners of the contests! It is going to be fun day! Would love to see you and your little tiger or you little Saints fan!

Skyler and her brother, Cayden

I just love, love photos of children in their Christmas attire. When my two children (my son and daughter) were young, I loved dressing them (and us, their parents) in coordinating holiday themed or just the same colors for Christmas Portrait and cards and for attending church. Now I love photographing other people's children. (But I still get to dress Natalie in pretty holidays clothes too. NATALIE'S HOLIDAY ATTIRE )

She was quite easy to amuse.

She, too, loved my rocking horse!

And her big brother did too!

Okay, I am almost through posting holiday images. By for now that's it.

I just love babies and Christmas...

CAN YOU STAND ANOTHER TUTU CUTE BABY? I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS KIND OF STUFF. I AM SO LOVING TUTUS. I AM SO GLAD MY FIRST GRANDCHILD WAS GIRL. {SHE'S WANTS BALLERINA STUFF FOR CHRISTMAS...SO SWEET!}

This is Landry. Isn't she a doll...

Can you believe it is almost Christmas? Is it sneaking up on all of you like it has me?

CHRISTMAS PORTRAIT PACKAGES ARE IN & IMAGES OF NATALIE

I bet your expecting images of my little sweetheart, Natalie. This is another Natalie and she is also three years old and just as adorable as she can be. I am sure she IS someone's sweetheart. With a face and a smile like that you gotta be... These are a few images from the first Christmas Promo.

I did not have back-to-back sessions at this point. So we did two outfits. And I had to capture some images of her just playing...I couldn't resist.

She looked so precious in the Santa hat. I think this is the one her mommy chose for their Christmas cards.

CHRISTMAS PORTRAIT PACKAGES:

• My husband is being a sweetheart as I write this. He is taking them to Dianne's Frames so that you can pick them up at your convenience.
• Since it is the end of the day and he will probably get them there just before closing, you can pick them up tomorrow (12.17.08).
• I think the Frame and Gift shop opens at 10:00, but feel free to call and see before you go by there.
  

Reagan and Colton more blue with Red for Christmas

SOME OF MY FAVS FROM THE WINTERWONDERLAND PROMO OF REAGAN AND HER BABY BROTHER, COLTON...

SANTA SOLDERS SNAPSHOT AND CHRISTMAS PORTRAITS ARE IN

LEFT TO RIGHT (above): Cari, Brittany, Emma (in front of B), me, a solder, and Natalie

Left to right backrow: Mark Porter (from the radio station...I think) and Santa
Left to right front: Tanya (my big helper last Christmas Season), Cari, Brittany, Emma (in front of Brittany), me, Solder volunteer, and Natalie.

SNAPSHOT FIRST...

These two photos were taken last year at Dairy Queen. Each year my gift to you is no session fee for Holiday Portrait Session. Your gift and mine to need children in our area is the toy that you bring to save money on your Christmas Portrait Package. Each year the radio station hosts a toy drive for Santa Solders at Dairy Queen. Well, this year today is the day (12.12.08). After I pick Cari up from school, we will delivery "our" toys to Dairy Queen. These photos were taken last year with my "new" snapshot camera at the time. It's not such a great photo, but just a snapshot...so yes, sometimes photographers have images that are just snapshots. We aren't happy with them, but they are much better than nothing!

TODAY BEFORE I TAKE THE TOYS TO DAIRY QUEEN, I WILL BE DELIVERING YOUR CHRISTMAS CARDS AND CHRISTMAS PORTRAITS TO DIANNE'S FRAMES (NEXT DOOR TO DAIRY QUEEN)

WHAT TIME?

4:00ish

Okay, that's it for now...I have to finish getting the packages ready.

I missed one...

I mean two. After I hit preview, I realized that I missed this simple collage of these two that I forgot to include and then I saw the one of Ava too. Yes, I had the one of Maddox and this one of Ava included as an individual image, but I also wanted to show how they nice they looked in ths simple collage.

Aren't they just adorabe?
