Horn Family

The Horn's came out on Saturday morning to capture their family in action. I know what Dad is thinking...EARLY! lol! Momma is one lucky woman, with 4 handsome men in her life. She probably doesn't even mind all the testosterone she has to deal with on a daily basis! We had a great time just hanging out and getting to know them. Here are just a few of the youngest members. Hope you guys have a great week!

Johnathan - Kiowa Senior

Johnathan will be graduating soon from Kiowa. We had the honor of spending some time with him yesterday. It was a little rainy, but we still managed to get quite a few shots in. He is an awesome guy and we enjoyed hanging with him, his Mom and little bro. Here are just a quick few...And yes, the last one is REAL fire! Too Awesome!



Bridget - ECU Senior

Bridget and her BF, Charity, swung by the studio on Thursday to celebrate her upcoming college graduation. This is such a huge accomplishment and I am so glad to see her taking advantage of the celebration! Both of these ladies have a great future ahead of them and we were so fortunate to meet them! Thanks for letting us be a part of this special time. It is just the beginning! Enjoy it!

Studio News

Good Morning Bloggers! Hope you are looking forward to a few warm days, I know I am! Well, it is almost spring around here and we have already had our cut off for 2009 seniors, so I thought it was a great time to make some changes around here. A little spring cleaning of sorts.

Beginning May 1st, all new sessions (excluding seniors and boudoir) booked after today, March 16th will be subject to this change. Those of you who have sessions already booked (excluding seniors and boudoir) are going to be able to take advantage of this offer if you so choose.

Beginning May 1st, Family, Children, Maternity, Newborn and Tween sessions will have the option to purchase a CD package. The CD package is $325 and includes a custom portrait session here at the studio with indoor and outdoor shooting options, a minimum of 20 edited portraits on a CD, and a 5x7 spiral bound proof book showcasing your portraits. A $100 deposit will be required to hold your date and the remainder, $225 will be due the day of your session.

We also have a 5x5 high end fabric covered album that will be showcased in another CD package. As most of you know, the spiral bound proof books are not printed with the intention of lasting forever. It should be used as a brag book to show your friends and family and to aide you in making your portrait choices. The album mentioned above will contain portraits printed on professional papers and lustre coated for protection. This album will be around for many many years. The cost of this album is $550, with a $100 deposit required to hold your session date. We have several on hand here at the studio, so if you are interested and would like to see a sample, just say the word!

As noted above, boudoir and senior sessions will continue to be able to purchase products via our a la carte and collections pricing. We will also continue to offer large prints (11x14 and larger), canvases, storyboards and collages, announcements and invitations, and other custom items through the studio.

Some of you may be reading this and say, what if I don't want the CD? I have decided to allow my current a la carte pricing to be available to my clients who just don't want the hassle of ordering your own prints. To do this, I am going to begin requiring a portrait deposit in addition to the session fee. So, beginning May 1, you will be required to place a $150 print deposit, in addition to the session fee. $100 will be required to hold your session date.

Thank you for your continued support and friendship. We have met so many wonderful families through the studio and we truly enjoy providing you with portraits that make you proud. Our passion strives on providing one of a kind sessions, so if you have an idea, let us know! We would love to help you bring it to print! Looking for something different and fun, look no further, you have found the photographer for YOU!

Starring Kyle, Crowder Senior

Kyle stopped by the studio a couple weeks ago to shoot some shots for one of his favorite past times, singing. I got a retro microphone just for the occasion and the shots turned out really cool. Here are just a few from his mini session. You can see Kyle in action over at the Hartshorne Theater! Happy Monday!

Krista - Kiowa Senior

Krista swung by the studio on Saturday afternoon to take a few shots. We had a ton of fun and Krista did an amazing job! She is a beautiful girl, inside and out. It was great spending some time with her and her Mom! We shot mostly in studio due to the crazy winds, but managed to get a few outdoor shots to round out her portfolio. Thank you guys for hangin' out with us. I hope you like your sneak! Didn't want to give away the prom dress before the big night! But there are a ton of awesome shots. Here are just a few...





Krista is a basketball player, so here is a spin on the traditional. We shot her in her warm up, but we wanted to take it back to the basics. A little street ball inspiration. I'm outta here :)
