I know it seems early to be thinking about ordering your holiday cards, but I wanted to let you in on a secret – you can save big if you do. Holiday cards savings are available at Minted where they are currently offering a great 15% off sale right now if you click through my link below. You can even order your cards now before you have your pictures ready. They can either be uploaded at a later time or, I can upload the ones you chose from your session directly to the site. They have lots of great designs to choose from; I’ve added my favorites to my store (click on the button below to reach that).

If you prefer the designs at Tiny Prints, the good news is they are also running a fantastic preseason sale. Currently, you can get up to 30% off their cards – that’s a crazy savings opportunity, and let’s face it, you won’t be scrambling to get those cards ordered and out in the mail. Go to my Storefront at Tiny Prints (or click on the picture below) and you can get 30% off your cards!!!

As the saying goes, the cobbler’s children have no shoes, however, this photographer’s children have had their Christmas portraits taken…..and of course, my youngest son lost a tooth last week. Just the thing I was hoping would NOT happen prior to their session. I made sure I got their portraits done early this year so I could take advantage of these fantastic sales.

So why not get those holiday cards ordered and that item off your to-do list, with the great satisfaction of getting a great price in the process!

Good genes and good times – family portrait session

This summer was a little different for our family. My husband is fortunate enough to work with a company that gives its employees an 8 week sabbatical every set number of years of employment. We took full advantage of that this summer and packed our time with lots of trips and experiences for us to enjoy as a family. One of those was to rent a beach-front house in Rye, NH.

Both my husband and I love this area of New Hampshire and this town. The house was just minutes’ walk from a lovely state beach, and right on the shoreline. It was a perfect spot to just relax, listen to the waves and watch the sunrise from our bedroom window. Since the house happened to have three bedrooms, we invited my mum to join us from Scotland for the two weeks. My boys had a lovely time just being with grandma and I think she had a nice time just taking walks along the coastline and reading books on her kindle on the deck in the sun.

I loved us all having time together and was even able to get some lovely shots of my mum in this impromptu family portrait session.

A time for launch and re-launch

I was recently honored to be asked to photographically represent my friend Karen’s new organic skincare company Hanu Skincare. Karen needed everything from stock photos for her many upcoming blog posts, head shots and, she also asked me to come along to both support and photograph her company’s launch party at Karma in Newton, MA.

We had a blast posing around for the head shots and getting the exact shots Karen would need for her blog. During this process, it was so very apparent the care and the dedication that has gone into the products and the company’s mission. All the ingredients are 100% organic, with an emphasis on no “fragrance.” To learn more about the products and ingredients, please read Karen’s blog post on Conscious Cosmetics.
