Gorgeous sisters!

These two may be sisters but they are different in so many ways. Big sister has straight blonde hair while little sister's is curly and brown. Little sister would have sat patiently for hours while I shot from every angle imaginable while big sister .... well let's just say she had other plans! :)
In due time we got the session in the bag with some beautiful images to show for it.





For any of you who may be concerned about the co-operation of your child during a shoot - know this - if you've booked me for a full session then that is what you'll receive. Sometimes it takes a little longer than expected. No fretting allowed Mom and Dad!
I find a great solution for a distracted or unco-operative child is to spend some one-on-one time with them. Mom, Dad and siblings in another room for a short time while I engage the child - giving him or her all my attention. It worked with the 3 year old beauty above and I have a sneaking suspicion it would work with your child.

Ahhhhhhh, sibling love....

Wouldn't it be nice to get a great picture of all your children in one shot? Not pulling each other's hair, not making funny faces or just generally taunting each other. Sometimes you wonder if that's even possible.

Well, here's proof that it CAN be done! This mini-session got the shots that Mom and Dad were looking for - Christmas gifts of the 3 children together for family/friends and updates to the individual shots of each child on their own familyroom wall.
Mini-sessions (1/2 hour in length) are always whirlwind but these kids did great in the short time frame. We nailed the shots and rushed the order through for a fast turnaround time. Thanks so much guys!

Christmas Baby

Doesn't this 6 month old boy look adorable all decked out in his Christmas gear?

I've done his newborn shoot, his 3 month and now his 6 month session. It's been such fun watching him grow over the months. I can't wait to see what he'll be doing at his 9 month session!

Merry Christmas to you and your Mom and Dad. :)

Consider a Gift Certificate

to Ingrid Mann Photography for a Christmas gift to family or friends. It's something unique that they won't want to return!

If you buy before Christmas - before the New Year actually - the session fee and prints remain at this year's pricing.

I can make up a personalized gift certificate for you - available upon payment in the amount of your choice. Minimum purchase of $62.50 (session fee).

My Holiday Gift To YOU

As you may already know, my portfolio building pricing is ending as of January 1, 2009. That means I'll no longer be offering my current 50% discount off all prices.

However, if you book a full session by December 31, I will hold 2008 pricing on prints* for that shoot. Payment for your session is due no later than December 31 and the session must be held by June 30, 2009.

This special is available for only 1 session per client. Mininum $250 order is required (not including session fee).

Expectant mothers, babies, toddlers, children, teens, couples - all deserve a special portrait. It's something easily overlooked but something that really shouldn't be. In the years to come you'll be glad you had them done...

*albums, storyboards, collages, gallery wraps will be at new pricing

Sweet 5 month old Baby Girl

Can you see the look she's giving her dog? Wide-eyed and trusting. No worries there as her puppy is very gentle and protective of her.


I love the little Santa hat her Mom picked up just before the shoot - tis the season and all you know.

This last shot - what can I say - there's just something so special about the love between a mother and her child...


Thanks for a fun session ladies! I'll be out to deliver your order next week.
