We hope you have a great year!

If you have not had your portraits taken, we still have sessions available. Contact us to reserve your date!

Fall Colors

Fall leaves tend to peak the first two weeks in October; a popular time for family and senior portraits. We photograph at the most colorful location available to us to ensure vibrant images for your wall. It's always a good idea to dress warm, as the fall air can be chilly!

Double - Sided Wallets and Accordian Albums

These new items have been a huge hit already with clients looking for a unique way to share images with others. Both come in custom tins for protecting your images in your pocket or purse. We can add the name and/or age to the double - sided wallets as well!

Looking for a way to display your holiday greeting cards?

We received one of these hangers as a gift and had to order some to have on hand for our clients. What a great way to showcase festive cards from friends and family!

It's the Little Things

It can be difficult choosing just a couple images to share with others from a portrait session. We are excited to introduce two new products for your purse or wallet to showcase your images!

Our durable double-sided wallets are a great choice if you can't decide on just one photograph to share with friends and family. A set of 24 comes in a custom-designed tin for 48.00!

Wallet-sized accordian albums are also a wonderful addition to your collection. They hold 12 images enclosed with a magnetic cover. A customized tin is included for safe storage. A total of 13 images for 50.00!
