Baby Scarlett

As promised, here are a few photos from my last shoot. Scarlett made it easy with her sweet face and good nature. See what I mean?



Thanks to Scarlett's mom and grandmother who were up for anything. From re-arranging furniture to holding the baby while crouched under a table - nothing stood in the way of getting the shot!

Valentine cards available!


Two designs available each with it's own distinct style. Fresh and sweet for Carlee's card while Christopher's has more of a grunge look to it.

These can be printed as 5x7, 4x6 or wallet sized on photo paper. It's too late for press-printed cards at this time but there's still time for a mini-session and a photo paper flat card order!

Email for pricing ingridmann@rogers.com

Stay tuned for Scarlett...

I'm busy proofing a session from this past weekend. Baby Scarlett (3 and a half months) was a dream to photograph. Not only is she cute as a button but she was a real trooper with all the clothing changes; not a complaint from her the entire time.

I'll have some images available as soon as I get her family's blessing. Stay tuned...

***updated January 2, 2009*** new pricing and policies as of today. Read Jan 2, 2009 post for details.

Legalities

Before any of my sessions I will ask you to sign a Model Release form. It's a simple document that basically does 2 things. It states that you will allow me to use images from our session for my own advertising purposes (ie business cards, sample products, on my website). It also states that you allow me to copyright the images in my or my business name.

Standard photography legalities tweaked to include my name and business name.

Signature required is either that of the model if over 18 or the parent / legal guardian if the model is a minor.

Just a heads up on the fine print...

Referral Program

When your prints are delivered I will include business cards - with an image from your session (with your permission of course) - for you to hand out to whomever you choose.

Should one of those people come to me with my business card and book a full session, you'll receive a free 8 x 10 with your next full session booking. Should they purchase more than $600 in products, you'll also receive a 10 image wallet album of your next full session booking.

++ Remember that during this portfolio-building time, prices are discounted by 50% (so the $600 listed above is actually $300!) ++
