We'll also have special pricing on "Paw Prints" which are beautiful painted portraits of your pet!

Survey & Ideas

After reading thru the first couple of days of the survey we sent out, I am seeing that there are a large number of people who need me to be able to shoot closer into town so I am looking into sharing space with another photographer or something like that and offering limited sessions closer into town. I have one in mind right now that ...is a residential studio in the 620/183 area.

I'll let ya know when I have set news!

We're also working on revamping pricing for September, keep an eye out here for the new lower pricing on many items!

Now one area that is going to go up, because our suppliers have all raised prices, is frames. SO right now, Framed Collections are the same price as they have been, as of September 1st they will go up in price, so if you want one, order now!! they are also discontinuing several matts, many I can still get until they run out, but if you have one you love, get with me ASAP!!

For all of those that participated in the survey, thank you!! we always need feedback and see ways to improve, its helping me to know what you need this year so I can adapt and help!

If you didnt receive the survey or the newsletter, please let me know right away so we can get you a copy!

Thats all for now! Have a great weekend

Please take our survey

Hi all, I would like to ask a favor of my clients, I have a survey that I would love for you to fill out. (clients only please, photographers please do not open this survey, it will alter the results) With the holidays around the corner AND our lease up in Liberty Hill, we are trying to make some decisions about many things so we can continue to offer the best products & services to you. This is a very short survey, it really should take less than 5 minutes and is anonymous. If you also receive this on email, I only need it once.

I so appreciate you taking the time to do this!

Pictures Needed

Hi all, I am working on an album for Facebook of pictures of clients homes and portraits. So what I would LOVE is to have a picture or 2 of how you display your portraits! You can email them to me at sppjen@aol.com. Thanks!!

So, to sweeten the deal, the person with the most unique use of their portraits will be given a FREE session! With the holidays coming up, as Martha says, is a "good thing" :)

Newsletter for Fall/Winter is OUT!!

If you didn't get a copy, email me and I will forward one to you! LOTS of events coming up, book now before they fill up!

Models Needed - LOTS of them!

I need models for several projects I am working on. The set design company that is working on the show that used my pictures (ABCs "My Generation") is interested in doing further work with me for future projects, so I am working on a "Stock" photography CD. I also am working on a newborn/baby calendar that I would like to do for charity AND lastly, product shots with props for my prop company and Miss Cory's baby clothing company. SOOOO, lots needed, please feel free to pass this on to friends, family, anyone! Also, check out my Facebook fan page for updates (see FB link on the sidebar).

Ok heres what I need:

I need several newborns, all sizes, under 2 weeks old or HEAVY sleepers. These could be LONG shoots, so you need to be able to committ to 2-3 hour blocks.

I need 6-9 month old babies, sitting up WELL. I need a particularly chubby one and a English Bulldog for a specific shot I am doing.

I need a tatood daddy with a newborn, preferably back tats, nothing scary.

I also need soome 2-3 yr old girls in fun, funky clothes.

I would like this to be for people who need to purchase pictures, not as much for me to make money, but I think its a great chance to be able to get some costs down for the pictures for people.

Compensation will be discussed per session, so email me for information on that at sppjen@aol.com. You MUST be willing to sign a blanket release which allows me to use these images in any way I want to. I can assure you, they will only be used in "appropriate" ways :)

Cool News!

Ok, so God is So good..so I get an email today froom one of the hospitals that I decorated, the biggest one in fact, and apparently ABC has a film crew there and is filming a movie, saw my display and has requested to use several pieces in their "set" for the movie! SOOOOO cool! MY PORTRAITS ARE GOING TO BE IN A MOVIE!

Current Events!

Wow! Summer is flying by, I can't believe how long its been since I have blogged! We have had a busy summer for being "not busy". We've been gardening and "ranching" on our little ranch as well as kicking off a new side business for me, FINI.

FINI is a fun project that I have wanted to do for a number of years. It is in the very beginning stages of development but essentially I am using my "prop eyes" to find fun & unique props for photographers and videographers but also for anyone who just likes unique items and eventually hopefully, eventually interior designers. Take a look! http://www.etsy.com/shop/JenLTurner

In the photo realm, I have a LOT of new products and sessions coming up so make sure you update your email on our mailing list to be sure we get it. I have changed our account for our email newsletters so to be safe, go ahead and re sign up for it, you don't want to miss out!

Keep an eye on the BLOG, I will be announcing up coming sessions as we pick the dates!

Lastly, this is a new background I just got in and I LOVE it! Its amazing for seniors as you can see, but I think any age would be fun to photograph on it for a more urban/edgy look! Babys can use our new Bandana Baby diaper covers and cool rocker hats (for girls too!) and older kiddos can wear in fun, funky clothes! Be the first to book and let us use your images and I'll give you a set of 5 free previews! (pricing & minimums apply).
