What a weekend! Tampa Child Photographer

Oh yes- what a weekend! It is Tuesday, and I am still recovering! A very special thank you to all of my loyal clients. The Saturday Holiday sessions were just great! I am so lucky to have the opportunity to see each family come back for these special sessions. The Bay to Bay stroll was so fun with a lot of traffic. One nice gentleman took the opportunity to thank me- to tell me that it was the best thing that has happened to his neighborhood in a long time! What a nice compliment-right? The holiday images are now up for viewing.
Sunday was truly amazing! I had the opportunity to photograph a ton of beautiful princesses at Seedlings. Marlene, the owner of Seedlings, and her crew were just great to work with! I got my girl fix since some of these little girls just melted my heart. The images will be up by this evening. I have already received a lot of emails from anxious mommies so just hold on for another hour. It is well worth the wait- these images are so incredible!
One huge announcement if you are a loyal blog stalker.... I will be in the Childrens Gasparila Parade this year. Oh yes, it is only October, and my float has been reserved. So you know how much I like contests....
You will have to check back for the contest details as I finalize them. I can tell you that the lucky winners will actually get to ride on my float this year- what a dream for any child-right? I will also have a special party for all of the contestants so stay tuned......

Images at Palma Ceia United Methodist Day School (Tampa Child Photographer)

What a week! A very special thank you to all of the children and parents at The Palma Ceia United Methodist Day School. This is my third year taking these images, and honestly, I think I have more fun than the children! I truly appreciate all of the amazing compliments from the parents. Thank you for the very fast emails with your orders as well! I am truly blessed each year with this opportunity! I was able to post around 300+ images each day (actually within 5 hours of the sessions) with the wonderful help of my assistant Caroline. I hope to see you all next week at The Bay To Bay Stroll at my studio- 4220 W. Bay to Bay Blvd. Come and meet 30+ vendors, spend at least $20.00 with a vendor, and get paw print bucks which will get you free wallets from your Palma Ceia Sessions! It is October 24th from 9-3 on the West End of Bay to Bay Blvd!

First Annual Bay to Bay Stroll (Tampa Family Photographer)

Have you heard the news? Have you seen the signs around town? We are having a "First Annual" Bay to Bay stroll in South Tampa on Saturday, October 24th from 9-3. Is it correct to say First Annual? You bet it is! According to Google, as long as you plan on having this event for many more years to come, then you can list it as a "First Annual". I have to tell you that I have booked some amazing vendors... they are going to offer great pre-holiday merchandise to you all! I am also giving Paw Bucks to the vendors- for every $20.00 you spend with the vendors, you will get a paw buck in which you can trade in for free photographs on your next session! I am fully booked for sessions this day (26 of them), but I do have a waiting list if you still want a session. Please email me your session time preference if you want to be added to the waiting list. Please come out and support these local vendors, and also show your support for The Humane Society and The Childrens Home! Since I did not have a grand opening in July, consider this your chance to check out my super fun new location at: 4220 W. Bay To Bay Blvd!

I will be selling gift certificates at this event, and I will have the baby registry sheets ready at the front door for you to complete! Can't wait to see you there! A special thank you to Randy Nabors at Down Range Designs for the amazing graphic design! I have a lot of flyers so please stop by so you can hand them out to your friends!

Are you having a baby? Fashionably Delivered is here! (Tampa Baby Photographer)

Gotta love this subject line-right? I am amazed at how many people read my blog. My beach sessions for November 14th are completely full (this was only a blog special). My holiday sessions for October 24th during the Bay to Bay stroll are completely full (yes all 26 of them). I still have sessions open during the weekdays so please email me with some dates and times.

I wanted to introduce my tenacious blog readers to the owner of Fashionably Delivered. Her name is Ali, and she is well .... just another awesome mom! I am sure most of you know that I do my best to support any mom that is willing to take "the risk" of starting her own business. Ali has developed the most amazing hospital delivery gowns! Do you remember what you delivered your baby in? Something stained, something worn-out and something that you are embarrassed by when you see the images of you holding the baby for the first time? Please check out her website at: http://www.fashionablydelivered.com/

My blog special is: Purchase a Milestone Baby Club Card and get a free Fashionably Delivered gown for free- oh yes FREE! This is a $40.00 value so don't wait- just stop by the studio!

Ali will be at the Bay to Bay stroll (along with 30 other vendors) so stop by and say hello! Don't know what the Bay to Bay stroll is?
