All dressed up and no place to go....

Christmas day at our house is a pretty casual affair. We wake up, open presents in our pajamas and quite often, the boys stay just like that for the entire day. It's comfy, fun and lets face it... there are way too may other important things to do after Santa has made his appearance than worry about getting dressed. That's what I thought anyways until I saw these cuties in (what will be) their Christmas dresses. Now if my boys were this fun to dress up there is no way an all-day pj event would fly. 

These two little ladies (who I have a bit of a soft spot for as they're friends with my boys and it's their home that I leave my boys at when I'm working) were AMAZINGLY easy to work with on a very cold day this past weekend. Throwing coats on and off, moving them here and there, asking them to look at the camera... they didn't complain once. Seriously... not once!

MINI-SESSIONS

Trying something new out this year. I'll be offering a limited number of mini-sessions for two days only to get ready for Christmas (yikes) - one in August and one early September. If interested, let me know asap and note what weekends work for you. This will help me decide what dates to go with. One date will definitely be in Woodstock and if there's enough interest, I could do the other in London or Toronto.

Details below...

HOLIDAY CARDS

Thought I'd show a few of the holiday card orders that have been printed. I'm anxiously awaiting books and calendars and will post a photo of those when they arrive.




(KEEP WATCHING FOR THE UPCOMING CONTEST - I'LL BE POSTING DETAILS IN A FEW DAYS)

thanks for looking : )

AND A FEW MORE...

A few more holiday card designs. These ones are folded 5x7 cards and take longer to print so order early to ensure delivery before December!

NEVER TOO EARLY TO START THINKING ABOUT....

...CHRISTMAS?
I hate the thought of the cold, the snow, the boots, hats, mitts - all of it - except for the holidays. They're one good thing that comes of winter. And because they're not too far away, I've started in on holiday cards - both folded and flat that showcase pictures from your shoot. Check these out (as well as those posted under the portfolio section of my website) and keep checking back for more designs...
