Holiday sessions & price adjustments

FYI to all new and returning clients....my pricing and product menu has been adjusted effective immediately.  I have trimmed down my product listing in an effort to simplify and make things less confusing or overwhelming.  The main changes to note are the session fees (which now include a print credit) and the disc of images.  Please check out www.bethcarterphotography.com to view a summary of the changes.  If you are interested in a new copy of my products, shoot me an email and I'd be happy to send you one!  These changes do NOT apply to existing Little Miracle Plan members.  My old prices will stay in effect through the completion of your baby's first year.  If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

I'm looking forward to another fall full of family portraits as we head into the Holiday season.  Within in the next couple of weeks I'll be posting this year's new card templates.  We still have all past years' templates available as well.   October is almost booked up already, so if you want to schedule a session for your family, please contact me as soon as possible.  The cutoff date for sessions where Christmas cards or gifts are needed will be November 19th.  That's only 2 months away!!   All the mini-session time slots are taken now, but I might open up two more at 3 & 3:30pm on October 8th if anyone is interested.

That's it for now!  More announcements to come regarding the amazing Organic Bloom frames and a brand new blog.  So exciting!

Fall Mini Sessions - October 8th

First I want to apologize to those that expressed an interest in beach mini sessions this year.  I usually offer those in August, and with both of my kids starting school this year, I feel like August really snuck up on me.  So unfortunately I will not be offering them this year.  Maybe in the spring!

We are now only a month away from the annual fall mini sessions (sorry for the late notice!).  Every year I have announced that they will take place in Downtown Lakeland, and every year I have found out at the last minute about a community event going on there that has required us to move to a different location.  Well, I think I've done my research this year and am 97% sure there are no conflicts (fingers crossed!).  So, downtown here we come! (finally!)

Here are the details for that day:

 

When: Saturday October 8th

 

Times: 4pm, 4:30pm, 5pm, 5:30pm, 6pm, 6:30pm  (will add more times if needed)

 

Cost: $175 ($50 for session, $125 print credit)

 

Where: Lake Mirror (near the corner of Massachusetts & Main streets)

 

If you are interested in booking a mini session, please let me know as soon as possible.  There are a limited number of spots!  Call or email me if you have any additional questions.

Organic Bloom Frames!

I am so excited to finally announce that I will now be selling Organic Bloom frames.  These frames are handmade and very unique.   As many of my clients already know, I sell mostly standard print sizes so that you can easily pick up a frame at your local retail establishment such as Target or Michaels.  For the products that are a custom size, I offer a wood accent plaque mount so framing is not required.  I have thought about offering custom framing in the past, but it's kind of a hassle on my end and would require keeping framing supplies on hand.  With two small kids in the house, I don't have a whole lot of extra room and just never wanted to go that route. 

Thankfully, one of my favorite clients introduced me to The Organic Bloom.  These frames come fully assembled and ready to hang (love!).  There are so many colors to choose from, and 16 different styles as well.  Then on top of that you can choose a Double Stack or Twin Stack option which only adds to the "wow" factor in my opinion.  The possibilities are endless!  If you are interested in purchasing a frame, inquiring about pricing, or seeing the color swatches in person, please let me know!  I have my samples ordered and will be sharing images of those with actual pictures in them as soon as they arrive.  Here is their website if you'd like to browse their gallery of samples: www.theorganicbloom.com

 

So many colors to choose from!!

 

 

Frames come in ALL sizes and can be a Single, Double or Twin....
