Why bundle your sessions into collections???

To save cost and receive more amazing products!!!!

When you choose a collection with me you receive a great savings on session cost as well as receive some amazing products. You will have exclusive availability to my complete prop and wardrobe line for mom and baby.

Here is how it works:

You choose your collection We start the booking process to hold your first spot you start with a $50 retainer fee that comes off the collections first payment.

Your cost is broke down into payments, made at each session.
We start a schedule for you (you never have to remember when you need to book the next session, because I will contact you about a month before).

Everything is provided for your babies year (the only thing I ask parents to bring is the cake for cake smash due to food allergy issues).  

After each session you will get 15-20 images loaded into a gallery which will stay live for babies first year, for you to choose your favorite 5 from after each session (and you will have the option to purchase more at a discount or you can purchase prints).  When choosing prints they are processed from a professional lab with the highest quality of development, unlike the one hour photo labs.  I do not offer any kind of digital files with my single session so this offer is exclusive just for my collections, which allows you to have even more value along with the session cost savings.

At the end of your collection you will receive a special 8x8 hard cover heirloom quality lay flat album with the complete gallery of images whether you purchased them or not.

You will also receive a discount off a full family session good up to a year.

After your Baby’s first year is over, I offer exclusively to my parents in any of these programs the Graduate program from age 2-5yrs of age.  What them turn from baby’s to toddlers and lets capture some more moments~ ​
​
Through out this journey we will work together to make each session special for your and your baby and capture their story of all the milestones that will occur along the way.

Look at those tiny fingers and toes!!!!

Some random thoughts about Photography by: A.J. Crumley
While off on vacation I used a lot of down time to work on my why~~ yes I worked a bit on my vacation I just couldn’t help it…..


One of my biggest questions to myself is Why do I do what I do? What is my why?

As a mom of grown children I have learned the hard way how fast the time slips away.  Trust me you will hear it all the time “it goes by so fast”, and I can remember thinking this is dragging on forever ~you know “those days” we all have them.  I was also guilty of wishing time away, “I can’t wait till they are sleeping through the night”, “I can’t wait till they are sitting up, holding their bottle, out of diapers” etc and the list goes on and on.  What I should have been doing is focusing on each of those moments and enjoying that specific time with them.  Because now I question did I hold them enough, did I give them enough kisses, did I give them enough time to be little etc. and again the list can go on.

Then I look back through photo albums~ the feelings that a photo can bring to you.  Becoming a mother changes everything you are and why you exist on this Earth, its a whole new reason for living.   The love you feel is indescribable and when your looking back at your images I hope they will bring you back to that moment when they were so very tiny.

When I capture images of your children whether its within one of my baby collections or a yearly birthday or a family session.  I am not just taking pictures, I hope for you I am creating something that will be treasured for years to come.  My goal is to capture a memory and a feeling of that time in your life, I am telling your story and freezing it for you to keep and be reminded of that moment for the rest of your life.  The experience you have here when coming to the studio for your child's portraits is part of that moment and feeling.  I want to create an experience that you will carry with you every time you look at those images.  I want you to feel the love in the images and the connection with them.

The other lesson I want to share, goes along with the idea that “it goes by so fast”.  It truly does, especially within your babies first year.  Each day your baby is changing, if you put off capturing those newborn images or tummy time or sitting on their own, or that connection your have with your children in a family session.  Before you know it they are onto their next stage and those are moments of your story with them you will never be able to get back. I don’t want you to let those moments pass you by.

So in wrapping it up that is my Why!
