March Maternity Madness MANIC MONDAY!
– 6:00 am
Yeah, it’s more than a Monday though!
For the next 31 days you can purchase the Belly to Baby plan and you will receive Tales From the Crib ON US! That is a $500 savings!
What is Belly to Baby ($500)? Your Belly to Baby plan includes:
Two sessions (one maternity and one newborn session)
A box of 25 birth announcements
And 8×8 leather covered 20 page coffee table album
And 10% off anything else you choose to order!
What is Tales From the Crib ($500)? Simply put, Tales From the Crib is a plan that documents your baby’s first year! You receive: Three sessions (heads up, sitting/standing and birthday)
An 8×8 leather covered 20 page album
A 10×20 storyboard with one image from each session
And 10% off anything else you choose to order!
Now, this is not new to a lot of you! I’d say the majority of you love these two plans, and several folks snatched the offer up when we did it last year! However…we like to keep things new and fresh around here so we have added another option!
The UNLIMITED Tales From the Crib ($925) includes:
Unlimited sessions for your child for their first 12 months
An 8×8 leather covered 35 page coffee table book
A custom covered 8×8 Keepsake Box
A 10×20 storyboard
20% off any additional orders
If you are wanting to take part in the March Maternity Madness special, but want the UNLIMITED Tales From the Crib, no problem! All you have to do is pay the $425 difference! For more information, please contact the studio at 706.247.5086 or info@stylizedportraiture.com
Right up there on the list of ‘things that are awesome’.

Mondays are for monkeying around!
March 8, 2010 – 8:59 am
And this Monday is NO different.
So, those of you who know me….really, really KNOW me….or, have ever been to the studio….KNOW that I LOVE me some sock monkeys. *LOOOVVEE them* (said in my best Wheezy voice). I love them so much that I have a friend, in Louisiana, named Crystal, who I order CUSTOM sock monkeys from (http://www.etsy.com/shop/ElegantHobbies)! Her work is AMAZING. If you have ever seen/touched/felt Matilda, Mad Max (the pirate) or Manny, you KNOW that they are amazingly well made. They have to be to suffer the wrath of the 18 month old clients, or the rambunctious 4 year old boys we get in 
In addition to her etsy shop, she has a blog: http://eleganthobbies.blogspot.com/
So, we talked to Crystal, and the awesome sock monkey maker and person that she is, she has made a special totally custom monkey just for us! And, today, we reveal her and offer her up to you all for our Manic Monday! To win this lovely lady, whom I’ve named Maggie, you have to comment or email us what YOUR favorite toy was as a child AND what toy your child has now that YOU secretly love! So, a toy YOU loved back in the day and a toy YOU love today! Again, comment below or email us at info@stylizedportraiture.com
Meet Maggie….
Ask and ye shall receive…

That’s how we roll around here! It’s been asked, several times, if we had something similar to the Tales From the Crib for our older kid clients. Aside from Style For Life, there was no other alternative. Until now 
We would like to introduce you all to Stylized Portraiture’s newest plan……THE BOOK CLUB!

I know, you are thinking, well, what if I have more than one child!? So, for an additional $75 you can include each of the children in the house (aged 13 months and older)!
Does it get any better than this!? Why, yes, yes it does!!! Not only do we have the Book Club to offer you, we also have an UNLIMITED option ($895)!!!
The Unlimited Book Club gives you:
As many sessions for your child(ren) as you’d like in a 12 month period

Mommy Manic Monday!
February 15, 2010 – 11:56 am
Let’s face it, a good majority of our clients out there are moms! And, as we started gearing up for our 2010 Manic Mondays, we really wanted to keep you moms in mind for the freebies! So, today’s Manic Monday give away can be a mom’s best friend!
Courtney, the designer of the super, cute, awesome diaper holder (http://www.etsy.com/shop/CourtneyRoo21) we are offering up today is a mom! And, as if that weren’t enough, she is also married to a fabulous military man who is currently deployed! So, on top of her full-time single mom gig, she is making these way cool diaper holders. We just photographed two of her amazing designs in the studio to show that not only can they be used as a convenient and compact way to carry diapers, a bottle, wipes, and diaper cream, but they can also GROW with your baby! Pictured below is a little girl with her diaper stash, and a big brother who uses it as his very own toy tote! I LOVE this product. I also love that it has a velcro closure, so when in the independent, I CAN DO IT MYSELF toddler stage, there isn’t any fighting These make the perfect baby shower gift! We can say this with confidence because we have already had 3 purchased and given as gifts…and the moms LOVE them!
How do you get one of these cool bags?
Go check out Courtney’s store on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop/CourtneyRoo21) and tell us which design you love the most. Then, tell us, if you could have her design your dream color combo, what would it be!? Email us at info@stylizedportraiture.com
Happy Monday!
Annual Best of the Year contest!
January 7, 2010 – 1:47 pm
That’s right, it’s time again for the Best of the past year! Last year we awarded 10 free sessions and digital files, but this year it’s even better! 6 categories, 163 images, 5 first place winners and just ONE grand prize winner.
Who: Each photographer picked one image from each session. Due to the quantity of 2009 sessions only regular sessions are included. Sadly this means that there are no Manic Monday winners, mini sessions or otherwise discounted sessions. We love you all, but we had to narrow it down somehow!
How: Open the following pages, click the checkmark next to the ones you think are the best, then hit VOTE! Only one vote per person, but you DO want to send everyone you know the link and tell them which photos are yours! Facebook it, twitter it, email it, forum it, get voters any way you can. No one may vote more than once, IP addresses are being logged and will be reviewed. YOU MAY VOTE FOR MULTIPLE IMAGES!
When: From now until January 17th at 11:59pm. Polls will automatically close at that exact time.
What: The best part: Prizes! Each category will have one top winner. The image with the most votes period will receive a 20×24 Canvas Gallery Wrap of the winning image and the other five category winners will get a 16×20 Canvas Gallery Wrap of the winning image. Oh yes, we know you love canvases, so be sure to send links out like crazy. YOU MAY VOTE FOR MULTIPLE IMAGES!
