Mother’s Day!

It’s coming up.  It always seems to sneak up on me every year.  Somewhere in my mind I think I have a free pass to just enjoy the holiday because I am “the mother” and for once I don’t have to be “in charge” of a holiday.  But then I remember that not only am a mother, but that I HAVE a mother that I get to honor.  But by that time, I’m running late on time and short on ideas.  (Don’t tell my mom!)

If you’re anything like me, I’ve got a fantastic solution to the Mother’s Day gift giving dilemma that will not only save you time, but will put a huge smile on your mom’s face.  Not to mention this would be a fantastic gift for yourself.  Just forward all the info to your kids or your spouse!

I’ve always felt passionate that every woman should feel as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside.  Instead of rewriting my thoughts, please go HERE to read about my philosophy on being a Hot Mama!

I’ve teamed up with the amazing people at The Fringe Hair Salon and Spa here in Danville to offer a day of pampering! When you come in, the Fringe hair team will style your hair to take you from everyday to extraordinary.  Then the phenomenal girls from Belleci Cosmetics will give you a professional make-up application to add to the Va-Va-Voom!  Once you’re feeling like the hot mama that you are, you will be my model for a mini photo session to document your outer beauty.  Within two weeks, you’ll be provided with  5 of the best images to choose from.  Your favorite will be given to you as a mounted 5×7, a full resolution digital file to have and print from forever,  and a web-sized watermarked file to share online.

Sounds wonderful!!!

 

Contact me or The Fringe Hair Salon and Spa for pricing information and to book a session for yourself or the mom in your life.

Can’t wait to meet you!!!

Next weekend the Town of Danville  is holding its annual Fall Crafts Festival complete with a “home town” parade where kids don their  Halloween costumes and go from store to store trick-or-treating.    I’m teaming up with the fabulous childrens boutique, Dandelion, for a Charity Halloween Photo Booth on Saturday from 10-1.  Bring your trick-or-treaters out and receive a complimentary5x7 portrait in exchange for a canned food or cash donation to the food bank.  All proceeds will go to the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano.  Hope to see you all there!

Portraits will be ready for pick-up at Dandelion after November 6th.

I love the summer!  The kids are out of school, the schedule relaxes, and the days are long and warm.  But as the kids get older, they get busier and busier.  This summer has been filled with lots of traveling, mostly to take kids to camps of all kinds.

I’m in Utah this week visiting family and friends, taking a son to baseball camp,  and enjoying the beautiful Wasatch Mountains.  Photos to come when I get home this weekend.

This week’s 20 on Tuesday was on vacation with me, but it’ll be back next week with another inspiring fellow photog.

We’re headed back “home” to California in a few weeks to visit friends and family.  I can’t wait!

While I’m there, I’m teaming up with my sister’s fabulous boutique, Flaunt in Danville, for some mini sessions!  If you’re in need (or want) of some fun pictures of the  kids  for holiday cards, gifts, or frames around your home, head on over to Flaunt and sign up for a 20 minute session or two.

When:  Friday August 13 from 9-12

What:  20 minute mini session

Cost:  Prices and packages from $50-$350

Stop by Flaunt to pick up more information and get on the calendar.

Can’t wait to see you!!!

I don’t know about you, but I never have a pen in my purse when I need one.  I’ve been caught off guard too many times when I’ve met someone new and needed to write down my contact info and I haven’t had a pen or a scrap piece of paper to write it down on.  What I really needed was a 411 card I could hand to them.

These are the 411 cards I designed for my Senior Reps this year.  They have an image from our session on each side as well as their phone number, email, and facebook information.  The cards are 2×3.5 inches, small enough to stick in a wallet or a back pocket.

And seniors aren’t the only ones smitten these cards.  Moms, Dads, and little brothers and sisters love sharing them with friends too.  The sky’s the limit on what  info you could include on them.  Address, blogsite info, ages of your sweet kids, birthdays, and even a list of your hobbies!  Anything you’d like to pass along to friends and family.  Consider them your own unique business cards!

Since I love them so much, I’m offering 50 free custom designed 411 cards to every paid session booked during the month of June.  Your session does not have to take place in June, but it does have to be booked in June.  I will include these sweet cards when your paid order is delivered!

Email or call me to schedule your session!
