    Studio News (Lowville NY child Portrait photographer)

    Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

    I have some news on the studio…  I just ordered my flooring this week.  So unless something crazy happens I am well on my way to it’s opening.  I can’t even tell you how excited I am.  I have some sessions lined up and it’s going to be awesome.  I bought my flooring from Roggies Flooring Center right here in Lowville and they have the best service!  Very nice product to choose from and top notch quality.  The people are great too ;)

    On March 8th I’m heading down to Utica NY for a bridal show that is sponsored by KISS FM.  I’m looking forward to branching out from the community and using my skills in other areas.  It looks like it’s going to be a good show!

    February is almost over but there is still time to book your session (session does not need to take place in Feb) and receive $50 towards prints.

    My March special is coming soon as well which is any sessions that take place in March will receive a complimentary 11×14.

    I hope you all are having a wonderful day!

    Local Highschool Senior Reps Casting Call (Northern NY Senior Photographer)

    Monday, February 16th, 2009

    It’s getting close to the time of year where Highschool seniors for 2010 will need their senior pics done. Each year I choose a couple guys and girls from the local highschools and offer them the job of being my Representative.
    Right now I’m looking for applications from any 2010 Senior from Lowville, Beaver River, Copenhagen, South Lewis and Carthage. Send me a pic of yourself and a paragraph on why you would make a good rep for my business.
    If you are chosen (spots are limited) then you will receive
    a FREE senior session
    50 Rep Cards to hand out to friends with all your 411 info on it
    10% off Ordered Prints
    5 watermarked images for Myspace/Facebook
    PLUS….
    Incentives for each referral you send to me

    The more referrals that book their senior session with me the more free stuff you will get! So get me your application as soon as possible. Like I said availability is limited :)

    Here’s a sample of some Senior Sessions I did last year…
