October Holiday Special! Finally!

 

I’ve been very busy creating new holiday packages and getting my studio ready for my holiday folks. This is the time of year that I get to see families that I’ve known and had the pleasure of being part of their holidays for the past twenty years. It is always shocking how much they grow and change each year.  A few of my long-time clients had high school seniors this year and the tradition starts to slow down once the kids go off to college; time being the number one factor, along with, resistance from the young adult. That is the sad part, but the happy part is I get to meet new families every year who are beginning their holiday tradition at my studio. When one door shuts, another door opens, right? I can’t express how much I will miss the long- time clients, hopefully, God willing,  I can photograph the grandkids once they come. So without further ado. . . I am offering for the month of October, one free 8×10 or two 5×7′s with your package purchase (must be ordered and paid by October 31, no exceptions. ) Just one more gift to wrap for family members or to keep for yourself. There are limited appointments left for October, so please schedule as soon as you can. This is the last special I will offer in 2011.  Thank you and hopefully see you soon!!!

Goodbye to a glorious summer!

What a wonderful summer!  I was absolutely addicted to spending every photographic moment outdoors. Now I’m waiting for the leaves to turn their brilliant colors to continue and squeeze out the very last drop. What better background then the one created by Mother Nature. With our precious children back to school, vacations enjoyed, September is our time to aclimate ourselves back into a routine again. I have been busy motivating my creative juices and gearing up for a magical holiday season. I’m certain it will be the best ever!! Please enjoy these few images from summer and check back for my holiday specials and some inspiring images to get yourself motivated for your holiday portraits and cards that your family, friends and YOU look forward to every year!

All my best,

Liz

 

Summer is sizzlin’

Hi everyone. It seems summer is the busiest time of the year outside of the holiday season for parents, so I greatly appreciate those of you who have taken the time to have your portraits taken with me. So far this past month I have photographed a few fairies, some fishermen, several first birthdays, newborns, business portraits, tons of seniors and believe it or not, several holiday card photos. It has been wonderful. To add to the fun, my sister decided to come visit us for a week from Florida. What a treat. Here are a few of the wonderful images of recent, including an image of my sister, Lauren . . . .

Incredible eyes!

My amazing sister, Lauren!

No, it's not my digital magic, this handsome young man, Nick, actually has two different iris colors. Mila Kunis the actress does as well. Very rare and gorgeous!

 

 

July Special!

Hi again,

Just wanted to offer a little incentive to take an hour out of your day, maybe two, and have your kids, pets, family or just yourself  photographed sometime in July and receive the most wonderful new product free, with a purchase of a package. This includes seniors packages or regular packages. You must have your photo shoot completed  and your order placed by July 31.  The best part is you get three of them. One for you, and two for gifts. It’s a 3×3 Accordion Mini Book (brag book). Custom designed by me. It has ten panels, which means ten images placed in an accordion style when you open it.  They are great to throw in your purse or keep on your desk at work. It will be hard for me to offer these during the holiday season due to my work load, so try and make it work for July.  Thanks!

 

High Aspirations

I was so excited to photograph this young beauty the other day. I have photographed her, along with, her older brother, Dylan and younger siblings, Derek and Alaina, every year since she was two years old. Their father brought them into my studio as a surprise for his wife. I remember that day as if it were yesterday.  It has been my great honor that my relationship with this family has continued to this day.  As a matter of fact, I am photographing their oldest son, Dylan, for his senior portraits next week. Now fifteen, this young beauty below is an aspiring model and actress and is the finalist in the “Miss Teen Pittsburgh” pageant. She has the personality to match her engaging smile. I wish her all the luck this September. GO Rachel!!!!
