Portrait Parties!

New portrait party themes!!
I have been brainstorming and have come up with some theme ideas for portrait parties to take us through the end of the year.

First, hear is a little more background on the parties: Get your friends and families together to get professional portraits taken in a laid back setting, your home or location of your choice. The host/hostess receives a free portrait package and additional discounts based on sales from the party. The attendants get to make a reservation to have portraits done with no session fee and no commitment to buy! The requirements to book your party are a guarantee of five and no more than ten families to participate and some space for my mobile studio (if indoors). Each family gets a 15 min block of time scheduled just for them.

I will be coming up with theme ideas for each month. However, you are welcome to come up with your own. Upcoming themes are:

Celebrate Fall: Outdoor party. Why take Fall portraits inside a stuffy studio with fake leaves and plastic pumpkins when you can get your Fall pictures done outside in the fresh air and leaves! Pick a spot with lots of colorful foliage and get your friends together for a fun day celebrating the season.


It's not too early to begin thinking about the holidays. Beautiful holiday cards and gifts can be made from your session, so take a chunk off your seasonal to-do list and get everything done at once! Here are this year's holiday themes:

A Peek of Santa: Inside party. Do you hate trucking everyone to the mall each year for Santa portraits only to face long lines and scared or grumpy kids? Take the stress out of meeting Santa when you put on the costume yourself. Your little ones will be happy to hold hands and give hugs to the big guy when it is you playing the role. Only your costumed midsection and hands will be included in the pics. Great for newborns and babies!

Fireside Families: Inside party. (fireplace setting required) Take your holiday Christmas portraits in front of the warmth and crackle of the fire. Great for the entire family! BYOS: Bring your stockings to hang on the mantle to further personalize your portrait.

Waiting up for Santa: Inside party. Get your little ones dressed up in their special holiday pj's for a portrait done while waiting up to sneak a peak of the man in red. (I know I'm not the only one that gets a special pair of Christmas pj's for my kids every year!) The setting will include a Christmas tree, armchair and side table complete with milk and cookies. Your little ones will be "waiting up" while reading a favorite Christmas story. Feel free to bring some special ornaments to hang on the tree to further personalize your portraits.
