Holiday Mini Sessions… I am just sending out a little mini-newsletter this month as it is really just information on Holiday Mini Sessions and the annual Santa photos – oh and my Holiday Schedule. Holiday Schedule Holiday Mini Sessions - Sept 1 though October 31st. After October 31st, regular session fees apply. Holiday Portrait Sessions - In order to receive your photos before Christmas, you must have had your session photographed prior to November 14th. Any sessions after November 14th are not guaranteed to be delivered by or before Christmas. Vacation - Lisa Hodnet Photography will be on vacation the following days this winter - November 21st – 30th and December 5th 14th. Mini Sessions Mini Sessions will take place on Sundays and Mondays during the months of  September and October only. Initially Pricing went out and I have decided I didn’t like what was included. I wanted everyone to have a wall portrait included with their package purchase.

Santa is coming!!! Last year Santa came to visit the studio – and we had a BLAST!!! This year we will be doing similar event – you can come and have cookies and milk with Santa and have your photo taken.  The date for the Santa sessions will be on Sunday, November 15th. Last year, the day booked up fast. These are 20 minute appointments with Santa.  At the time of booking you will need to pay $35 that will be for the sitting and one 5×7. Additional purchases may be made after the event. For those of you who have children who might think Santa is scary, he is VERY patient. Don’t worry – if your child is shy, Santa is VERY good at wiggling his way into their hearts!  We do our best to get you proofs of your child(ren) alone and with Santa. If you are interested, please call the studio at 303.349.3844 ASAP. We are already beginning to book Santa sessions. That’s all for now – I look forward to seeing all of you this fall for photos!

I just got back from Chicago we attended a WONDERFUL wedding and now I am getting back to the daily grind.

I needed to send out a quick not to let you all know that the studio is QUICKLY filling up for sessions for the holidays. Right now, we are booking two weeks out, and I can tell you that this won’t get any better – I know, it’s only August and you are worried about sending your children off to school in the right clothing, with supplies and hopefully without a hitch BUT…this is important stuff!!!

What does this mean to you? It means that if you call me towards the end of October because you put it off thinking that you would be able to schedule your sessions later, I might not be able to fit you in before my deadline for holiday photos (November 15th). I will still photograph after November 15th, but you will not receive your photos before the holidays.

Ooh wanna sneak peek of the new holiday cards for this year?!?!?

Don’t forget to digg me if you like this!!
