So I have this Amazing friend!!  We have alot in common, kids, family, we each have our own business etc.  Well I have some exciting news.  We have teamed up our businesses to try and help each other out as well as help out the local economy and small business.

My friend designs and sells her own handbags.  Some of my clients have done business with her and I see her bags all around town.

Well all my brides for 2009 are getting one of her bags!!!!!!!  You ask how can I take advantage of this super offer.  All you have to do is book your 2009 wedding with me and you will receive one custom made Valerie Ann Designs handbag (*sizes and colors may vary*) .  Also she has offered a 15% discount for any of my brides to purchase bags as bridesmaids gifts. *(one discount on one order per bride)

So how awesome is that!!!  I will have this offer as well as some other amazing offers at the Bridal Show on Saturday so come check it out

Just wanted to mention that there was a typo in the Bridal Edition for the Lowville Journal and Republican.  My website is listed as www.ellenicolphotography.com and it’s actually www.ellennicolphotography.com

Just so people know!!

So it snowed again today!!!  LOL  It seems to never end.  I am seriously counting down the days until spring comes

Our house is coming along nicely.  I’m ready for it to be back to normal and I am so excited to move everyone upstairs and have room for our family finally.  I’m also not to patiently waiting for my studio to be done.  We are almost to the primer/painting stages and once that is done it will be smooth sailing.

This week will be spent getting ready for the bridal show on Saturday.  I have my set up planned in my head, my prints done, and my album came today!!!  I have to say it’s so AMAZING!!!!!  I can’t wait to show it off.  It really is absolutely gorgeous.  The pages are thick, the cover leather is so soft and smooth and the image quality is just perfect.  I’m very happy with my 2009 wedding album choice.    The Bridal insert for the Lowville Journal and Republican came out today and I haven’t seen it yet but my hubby says my info is in there for the show this coming Saturday.  Hopefully he will bring home a copy tomorrow for me.

This past week I submitted an ad for the Thousand Island Sun bridal edition which comes out the 4th of Feb.

I’m very excited about branching out and doing some advertising in other areas of NY State.  The special listed on the ad is good for anyone anywhere as well

I did want to mention that just because my studio isn’t finished doesn’t mean I’m not taking sessions.  Right now portrait sessions include a $50 print credit with your session fee.

I’m also in the process of choosing my best of 2008 images for my blog contest.  The contest will launch in Feburary and will have some great prizes for the winners of the contest and some for the voters as well.

Anyway enough ramblings for this evening!!!

Gotta run American Idol is on!!
