Beautiful Katelyn and Lauren

I adore these 2 girls.  Every time that I get  to spend some time with them is special.  Here are just a couple, but I’ll be adding more in the next few days when I get a chance…

2 year old Brady

All I can say is “whew”.  I love Brady, but man…he is a force in motion.  What a busy, busy little guy.  I was so glad to have caught a moment or two of pure “Brady-ness”….

Aimee, Craig, and baby bump Noah

I’m so excited for Aimee and Craig.  We met just a little over a year ago when they were pregnant with baby Jonah and it was such a miracle for them.  And now, they are expecting baby Noah in just a few short weeks.  Life can really surprise you sometimes, and I’m so happy that they have had such wonderful surprises!

out of the studio and into the tub…

Almost-one-year-old Miss C. is almost too adorable for words…but I’ll try-adorable, delightful, sweet, happy, yummy.  Here’s one and I’ll definitely be adding more soon:

A few more…

Why is professional baby photography worth the price tag?

Great online article at http://www.babyphotographers.com on what makes professional baby photography worth the price tag.  In these tough economic times, deciding where to spend your hard earned dollars is extremely important.  This article sheds some insight on what you get for your money when hiring a professional photographer for your important family portraits.  Very informative!

Proud member of NAPCP and HeArts Speak…

I am so proud to have recently been accepted into two very special professional organizations.

First, the National Association of Professional Child Photographers (www.napcp.com) Their mission is “to promote and support the artistry and integrity of the most talented, creative, and professional child photographers”.   It is an honor to be accepted into such good company of talent child photographers.

Second, HeArts Speak (www.heartsspeak.org).  They are a wonderful new organization whose focus is to connect animal artists with animal rescue groups in order to use their art to help get animals adopted.  Now, you all know how crazy I am about animals.  I am super excited to get started working with this organization to help give back some of the love that I get from my two dogs every day.

Just wanted to share my excitement and pride!  You can find out more about both on their websites and they are both also on Facebook.

Sizzling summer specials!/Dallas Portrait Photographer

We have a couple of great specials going on right now at Shades of You.  Spaces are limited and will fill up quickly so please call or email if you would like to book a session.

First, we have our Mini Maternity Special-for all Mommies-to-Be due in August, September, or October.  Book a mini maternity session (half price/half time) and your newborn session is COMPLIMENTARY (if held within the first 2 weeks).  Yep, you heard correctly.  We know that times are tough right now and we still want our wondeful clients to have the experience of both sessions.

Second, we are having a Sliding Summer Sizzler Sale for all returning clients (you know I love ya!).  You can save up to 30% on ala carte prints for all sessions booked and held between July 10 and August 31st.  Here’s how it works:  10% off of your session fee AND your ala carte prints for each time you’ve previously been here (up to 30%).  So, if you’ve been here once you get 10% off your prints.  Twice?  You get 20% off.  Three or more?  30% off.  Please note that this is not to be used with other promotions or casting call sessions.

Finally, are you a new client?  If this is your first session, mention our blog and receive half off your session fee and a complimentary 5×7 with your portrait session.  Welcome to our little “family”.

Please call or email the studio if you are interested in booking your session.  See you soon!
