For the past 3 years, I have held Holiday mini sessions, and they are always a big hit! In fact, last year, I didn’t get a chance to announce them because they booked up in just a day or so from word-of-mouth! They are always a fun time and a great value for my clients. I LOVE getting a holiday card back from them too (hint, hint)!

I’ve already had quite a few requests, so I thought I’d go ahead publish the details! I know it’s not even July yet, but it’s never too early to plan, right?

I will be doing 2 days of Holiday mini sessions -

• Atlanta - Saturday, October 23rd
• Birmingham - Saturday, October 30th

What is included:

• 30 minute mini session
• 25 press printed holiday cards (for 50 cards, add $25)*
• 10-15 digital files with print release
• $225

Half of the session fee reserves your spot! The other half is due at the time of the session.

I will also be offering 1 day of Santa mini sessions -

• Birmingham - Sunday, November 7th

What is included:

• 15 minute mini session with THE REAL Santa
• 5-10 proofs
• 1 digital holiday card file (flat 5×7 card, which you can print yourself)
• digital files with print release
• $75

Half of the session fee reserves your spot! The other half is due at the time of the session.

*Wanna see my holiday card collection from last year? I will be adding a few sets for this year!

I will be at the beach in the Seaside, Rosemary Beach area (along 30-A) from July 10-16th and I am going to open up my schedule for a few beach sessions while I’m there. If you will be anywhere from Panama City Beach to Destin and are interested in a sunset or sunrise beach session, email me!

Sessions will be $325 and include the session and 12-15 proofs with digital files.  I will only be accepting 3-4 of these sessions, so contact me soon if you are interested!

Whoa - I am so behind on updating my blog, it’s ridiculous. Here it is almost June and I realized I haven’t blogged ALL of April and most of May!  I better get busy…

I held Spring mini sessions in Atlanta this year and it was so fun! Luckily my best friend is always my assistant on mini-session days. She and are a great team and work together so well. We end up making kids laugh just by how silly we are.

From now on, I’ll only be doing mini-sessions in Atlanta in the Spring and the Fall. If the tardiness of this post gives you any idea about how busy I have been - it should. After carting my family back and forth to Atlanta so frequently, we have decided we need to slow down, spend more time with each other, and cherish the days when our daughter is still a child.  She’s growing up so fast, I don’t want to miss it. If you have kids, you know what I mean!

I say all that to casually mention that my Fall mini sessions in Atlanta will be October 23 - 24th. I’ve already had a few inquiries about these, so if you want to get on the list, please let me know.  And yes, I can’t believe I’m talking about Fall mini sessions before Memorial Day weekend too!

Without further ado - here are my Spring mini session stars! I love the colors, the smiles, and the love. Can’t you feel it?

I had an awesome time with all these families this year, and it was icing on the cake that we had perfect weather!  Here are some favorites. Check out my facebook fan page (become a fan!) to see more from each session! www.shootstarphoto.com/fanpage

I wanted to post a quick sneak peek to show you all the beautiful kids I had the fortunate opportunity to work with this weekend! Gorgeous, smiley children and fantastic weather. I can’t wait to get the rest to their parents. Look for your proofs later this week!

Thanks again, everyone, for a wonderful weekend!

I held my first mini session of the season in Atlanta last weekend. The good people at Atlantic Station gave me exclusive permission (which I shared with Jody on Sunday for her sessions!) to have access to their ENORMOUS and beautiful Christmas tree. The official lighting of the tree is November 22nd where they will have snow and everything! So go check out Atlantic station if you missed out on a mini session to see this gorgeous tree!

All of my clients for Saturday were repeat customers of those I’ve had throughout the year (a couple I have now shot 3x’s this year!) ! It was so fun to see how much they’ve grown and learned over the time!

Aren’t these guys adorable? I see some very cute holiday cards in their future. For a reminder of my options available - follow this link!

It was so much fun, even though it was cold! Thanks to my wonderful assistants who helped the day go off without a hitch! I look forward to 2 packed days of mini-session in Birmingham this weekend!

Don’t forget to submit your hoilday card orders by next Wednesday in order to have them in time for address and delivery intervals. Thanks again!
