We’re so excited to get into the holiday spirit with our first ever holiday portrait promotion. For a limited time we’ll be offering mini portrait sessions at HALF OFF our normal portrait rate and including a bunch of extras including custom holiday cards to show off your favorite images from your session.

It’s pretty simple. Sessions are available in the Orlando area on the dates and times listed below. (Spots are limited so contact us asap!)  Pick the date that works best for you and BOOK US. We’ll help you with outfit ideas and concept ideas if you want to get creative. While you’re waiting for your session date to arrive, pick a holiday card design from the 6 we have available (shown off below). You’ll be able to add your own images and customize what you’d like the card to say. After the session we’ll set up a time on a weekday evening the following week to have you over for your image premiere where you’ll get to see all the finished files. We’ll build your customized holiday cards with you on the spot and you’ll get to pick your favorite 10 images to keep as digital files when you leave. You’ll also have the option to place orders for canvases, prints, custom stamps, and additional holiday cards at our discounted premiere rate from our special holiday pricing sheet. After you leave your premiere, your online proofing gallery will stay open for 1 week in case you want to share it with family or place any additional orders.

Gainesville, Florida

With some people, you just instantly click. Travis and Kristin got married on New Year’s Eve of last year and we helped ring in 2010 with them as they started a new year as husband and wife. We felt an instant friendship with them after meeting them and they must have too because they were sweet enough to bring us gifts of a feathered headband and hot sauce the next time they saw us. (How thoughtful are they?!) So we were so excited to meet back up with them in the town of Gainesville where their relationship started to shoot an Encore session at all of their favorite local spots. They took us all around town to various places that held special significance for them in their relationship from the apartment complex where they first met to the restaurant where they’d cuddle in the corner booth, to the eclectic junk-shop-turned-pizza-parlor with the best pies in town. By the end we felt like we’d gotten an in depth history lesson on Mr. and Mrs. Gerke. :)

I really LOVE getting to see our couples again, post-vows. I feel like, for so many wedding professionals, it’s always about the wedding. And I get it, there’s a lot going on and a lot of planning and a lot of excitement. But for me, as an avid people watcher and lover or digging deeper into my friends’ souls, I adore the chance to see them again after all the hoopla is over. I like seeing them just living it all out. Life. Marriage. Dogs. Moves. School. Jobs. Boring every day life. It’s fun to see their marriage and their new relationship and how their level of comfortability with each other only grows. Maybe we should start offering complimentary 5 year anniversary sessions, just so I can see everyone again. ;)

We had a FANTASTIC time and we can’t wait to see them again next month to shoot them AGAIN in New York City where we are going to trash Kristin’s wedding dress. I’ve heard rumors that tattoos and fountains might be involved! Who’s excited? I’m excited. I’m also excited about these photos. I’ve been using a new editing technique that I’m kind of head over heels for. I love them all…

HAHA. Gotcha.

This is so 1970′s. I just love it.

This crazy contraption was a HUGE art installation/fountain made out of salvaged junk and bits of all kinds. Fantastic!

Not many people could pull off a wall of hubcaps. Just sayin’…
