Christmas

Watch for Christmas session information . . . coming soon! Check out the samples in my online proofing. The gallery name is Christmas Cards and the password is christmas.

Ordering deadline for Christmas is Dec 5 for cards and Dec 10 for photos - no exceptions!!

Keep in mind that Christmas cards can easily be created from ANY session - even if your session was months ago! Just email me the templates that you like, along with which photos you'd like to use and the wording. I'll create a few custom samples, upload them to your proofing gallery and we'll go from there.

Photos make GREAT Christmas gifts.

Another reminder - I work full time and have two young children. I only return emails and phone calls during the evening hours. Also, if you need to call me - PLEASE do not call my home number. My cell is 380-7524. Thank you!!

Another Special

Now through April 15, 2008, buy any 11x14 or 16x20 and receive a 2nd copy of the same print for just $10.00 more. Great for people needing a 2nd copy to give away, hang in an office, etc.

The proofing pricing will have an option to purchase 1 print or 2 prints of each of these. The 2 print option will reflect the added cost of $10.00.

ontact me if you have any questions!

Thanks!

Some Changes

You all will notice some changes for 2008.

1. It's soooo much easier for me to process orders that are placed through the online ordering system. Therefore, prints ordered through the online proofing will be reflect a discount of 10%. To get the discount price, orders must be placed online - not through the telephone or email. :) Again, I am just doing this to make things easier on me - I work full time and do this on the side so my time is very valuable to me and my family.

2. January is now booked. February and March are starting to fill up so, if you're interested, I suggest that you make an appointment now.

3. There will be some specials announced in January. I'm not sure exactly what I plan to do yet because I want it to be something great and different, sooo stay tuned - hopefully I'll make a decision soon.

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year!

Christmas Deadline

Is very quickly approaching. Ideally, orders should have been placed by now. However, I know I squeezed some of you in at the last minute so I realize that those orders will be a little past my "normal" deadline. :)

For Christmas cards, I strongly suggest that your order be placed by December 7th. At this time, i am having a turnaround time of about a week (usually faster, but a week is the soonest that I can guarantee it). Therefore, please have all orders placed by 5 pm on Friday, December 7th. This will give me time to process all orders and make sure they are in your hands in plenty of time for you to get them in the mail.

For regular photos, I can extend the deadline a few days for guaranteed Christmas delivery. On regular prints, please have your orders to me by 5 pm on December 11th. Any orders received after that date MAY be in in time for Christmas, but I cannot promise that they will be.

As always, if you have any questions, etc. please feel free to contact me on my cell at 380-7524 or by email at valerie_crow@hotmail.com. I will answer your questions as soon as I can - keep in mind that I have a full time job so I return calls/emails in the evenings.

Thanks!

New Year Specials

Will be posted soon. As soon as I recover from all of the Christmas sessions (and a wedding that I'm still working on), I will be posting specials valid for the first few months of 2008. I've already booked a few sessions for January so there are only a few slots remaining. If you want a session in January, I suggest you book right away.

I'll also be showing some examples of custom Valentine's Day cards soon - a great way to show off your little sweethearts! :)

Some Updates

Thanks to all of you who have had sessions the past few weeks. Although I had several more sessions than normal, I think that everything has gone very smoothly. . . thank you all for that! :)

Look for your proofs online soon!!!!

Just a few reminders. . . .

Keep in mind -if you want Christmas cards I will create a few samples for you and upload them to your gallery after you let me know which size you prefer and which photos and wording you'd like to see in the templates (the templates are located in the proofing section under Christmas Cards - password is christmas).

Orders will not be placed until I have money in my hands. For those of you that use the online ordering system, this is no problem. However, if you prefer NOT to use the online ordering system, please EMAIL your order to me and keep in mind that you are responsible for getting the money to me before I will place your order.

On orders over $150, I am shipping directly to your house, mainly to save both of us time. However, please remember that, in doing this, I do not see the prints before you so if there is any problem at all, please let me know immediately!! I will notify you via email once the order has been placed so that you can be on the lookout for your prints.

I will not be working as much on photos Wednesday evening through next Sunday due to Thanksgiving. I will be doing some things, but I cannot promise that your emails and/or calls will be returned as quickly as normal!

Please remember that the best method of contact for me is email (valerie_crow@hotmail.com) or my cell (573.380.7524).

Thanks!
