developments on the horizon . . . | alabama children's photographer

there are a few things i have been meaning to post for the past few weeks (okay, months - eek)! i've decided to wait just a little longer, though, because i am about to unveil a NEW BLOG!!!!

why, you ask, would i invest in a new blog when i don't even post on this one?? well, i *want* to post (i've even built in a little motivation by offering free sessions when i don't post), but i've had an itch for a great blog . . . and IT'S ALMOST HERE!!

soooooooooooooo, all posts are officially on hold for the moment. :-D ;-D :-D

a complimentary session | alabama children's photographer

i knew it was inevitable . . . i already went more than 7 days without posting!! i received a "reminder" email early monday afternoon from A.H. in decatur, alabama. i have been so swamped that i haven't had an opportunity to update the blog until now (and i've received several reminders this afternoon, which gave me the push i needed).

congratulations "h" family - i can't wait to see you in april for your free session!!

oh, how I love thee . . . | alabama family photographer

Holiday mini-sessions were such a hit in October and November (and so much fun for me) that I have decided to offer a few up for Valentine's Day!! For those of you who missed out at Christmas I'm sure I don't have to tell you how quickly they fill up.

For larger view, click here.


*you will also receive a 20% discount on all prints you order from the session!!

don't be shy | alabama lifestyle photographer

given the fact that 2009 is officially "the year of the blog," i have been putting a lot of thought into ways to keep you (and me) entertained!! i decided that one good way to do that is to come up with another way to get a complimentary session!!

it's so simple: every month i will give a complimentary session to the person who posts the most comments on my blog! the only prerequisites are (1) there must have been at least 15 comments during the month and (2) the comments must be from at least 7 different people!! this should be interesting - i don't think i have had 15 comments TOTAL since the inception of this blog . . . ;-D

kissable | alabama newborn photographer

i recently photographed an absolutely adorable baby girl. she is actually the second child of my first cousin, whom i used to babysit (yes, that makes me feel old). "baby a" has a head full of hair, which is way too cute on a newborn!

i love images that make me smile. this first one gets me every time!

the year of the blog | alabama photographer

i know, i know! i get emails about it all the time - i absolutely MUST blog more!!

i rarely make new year's resolutions, but i did this year: i will endeavor to blog AT LEAST once a week! in fact, i'm going to give away FREE stuff when i don't.

here are the details:
every time i go more than seven (7) days without posting, be sure to shoot me an email reminding me to post. the first person who emails me after each such incident gets a FREE SESSION!!!! if there has ever been a "sure thing," this is it - just look at my posting history!
