Exciting News!

It is hard to believe that the end of this month marks my one year anniversary of moving into my studio!  It has been a great year, and I love the options that it has given me.  I have been thinking the last few months about my business and the direction I would like to take.

This April I will be moving into my new location at the corner of Hanover and Sophia.  It is currently the Griffin Bookstore.  The new studio is much larger, allowing me to offer many additional services! 

The first is a retail boutique with offerings for babies, toddlers, tweens, teens, and moms!  I have had so much fun looking for products that are not currently available in our area.  I will be posting some teaser photos in the next few days.

I will also be offering a fun new idea for birthday parties!  Girls will be able to dress up, walk the runway, and strike a pose!  I have had one party so far, and it was a HIT!  Here are some pics:

 

 

 

 

Watch the blog for more details and a fun contest!

Image Galleries

Hmmm, somehow a recent update to IE has disabled all of my photo galleries.  I am working with my website guy, aka my hubby Dennis, to get this fixed.  Hopefully all will be better in a couple of days!

Thanks!

They will each receive a Free session in 2008 and an album of 20 5x7 images from the session!

Because the contest was so close, I will also recognize our next 2 vote-getters:

They will also receive a Free session in 2008 and a mini album of 10 wallets from that session!

Congratulations!

Best Photo of 2007

Now that 2008 is here, it is time for a photo contest!  We randomly selected the sessions and then I chose my favorite image from each session.  Since there are so many to choose from, the top 2 winners will each receive a complimentary photo session in 2008 and a leather album with 20 5x7s from the session!

To vote for your favorite image, send an email to contest@leslielarsenphotography.com.  Please put the image number in the subject line.  You may vote only once per email address, additional votes will not be counted.  Votes will be taken until the end of January.

Here are the images:

 

   

 

 

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

 

 

 

 

 

Display this Weekend

I am so excited about this weekend!  I will be participating in the Merry Market in downtown Fredericksburg.  Here is the information:

I have many new products coming in this week, including photo handbags, photo jewelry, and ornaments.  Here is a sneak peek:

You have to stop by to see the rest!  I will also be giving away a family portrait session and 11x14 mounted portrait!  Be sure to come in and say hi!

And here are some images from the Glimpse of Santa Mini-sessions this weekend!

Hugs,

Leslie

OK...I hear you!

I have had many questions and comments about my pricing this week...so I am ditching the separate pricing plans.  Instead of having collections with lower pricing, I will be offering certain ordering incentives:

• Order $400 and receive a leather wallet album with 10 wallet photos from your session.
• Order $1000 and receive a leather 8x8 album with 20 5x7 photos from your session.

You may also disregard the mini-collection pricing.

Please let me know if you have any more questions!

Thanks!

Glimpse of Santa Mini-Sessions

I have scheduled several dates for the Glimpse of Santa Mini-sessions.  These 30 minute, in studio sessions are $25 (plus tax) with 2 5x7 portraits included.  I do have a Santa suit available for mom or dad to wear.

Mini-sessions will be held on October 28, November3 and November 4 -- I will open additional dates if these fill.

The first 10 people to schedule a mini-session or full portrait session will receive 10 complimentary holiday greeting cards.

Here are some images from last year:
