Portland Portrait Party

OK, it wasn't really in Portland but I like the alliteration. Last week I flew out to Hillsboro, Oregon (which is really close to Portland) for some baby portraits. She was 8 weeks old and a real cutie.

She smiled a lot for me. At least that's my story. ;-)

Some fun Baby Parts that'll be made into a collage.

Isn't her smile contagious? I know you're smiling. Just admit it.

Yes, she has three older sisters!

They wanted a picture of me with the girls, so here you go.

Isn't she so cute?

It was great traveling for these portraits but I'm glad to be home.

And now, the first contest question of the year: take a guess where the parents met. First one to answer correctly gets a free tote bag -- with little windows that you slip prints into. Post your answer as a comment below. Some people aren't eligible to win, you know who you are.

Remember to check out the slideshow.

Nathan at 3 Months

You all remember Nathan? He came in a couple weeks ago for his 3-month portraits. He's filling out and has lots of personality. This time Mom and Dad and his sister came along for a family portrait afterwards.

Take a look at the slideshow!

Happy New Year

Wow! What a crazy last couple of months. We had our best holiday season to date. Sometime this month we'll get our Christmas cards out. For, uh, next Christmas? Yeah, we're really getting a jump on things. ;-)

This post will be a sort-of "catching up" post. We have a lot going on.

First of all, thank you to all of you who stopped by from October through December. We really appreciate every customer. We also appreciate all the referrals we received from people. That's the best kind of advertising there is. And speaking of referrals -- remember, if you're a member of Angie's List, we are listed up there so it would be great to see some comments from you.

We have a picture in the latest issue of Columbus Parent magazine. It's on page 14. We also have an ad on the facing page.



The article is about a little girl with Treacher Collins Syndrome and how the family is working through the issues. The article is online so take a look if you haven't seen the print version. Our image is also on the home page of their Web site right now.

There's a fundraiser for her at Lucé Restaurant and Cafe in Powell on January 24th. There will be a silent auction (we've donated a package) and I think a portion of meals will be donated to the family. The restaurant is located at 3499 Market Street in Powell, Ohio.

In other news, one of our pictures is in the current issue of The Perspective, the student magazine of Dublin Coffman High School.

The article is about Junior Corrinne Haynes, a very talented dancer. Her leaps and moves made for some great images. I'll need to get a copy for our archive.

Our last bit of news for right now is about our new blog contests (coming soon). Each week or so we'll be having a contest with a question. Be the first to answer correctly and you'll win one of several prizes. There will be more details in a later post so check back soon.

Again, thanks for making 2007 our best year so far.
