Welcome Julie Moon!

Posted in AnnouncementsNo comments

We love keeping you on your toes and bringing you new and exciting things at Stylized Portraiture! This time, we promise, we are NOT moving, but growing:)

We are happy to announce the addition of another photographer to our crew! Please, everyone stop by the Facebook page and give a shout out to the new SP older children and families with older kids photographer, Julie Moon!!!

Prior to  joining up with Stylized Portraiture, she ran her own photography business, Julie Moon Photography.  She lives here in Athens with her husband and their three beautiful children.  We are excited to bring her talent and creativity to the Stylized Portraiture team!

  
Be one of the first to call and book a session with Julie and you’ll get 25 Christmas cards complementary with your Basic, Deluxe, or Everything session package!!! Remember, Julie is shooting the over the age of 6 crowd and families with the majority of kids over age 6, so this special offer only applies to those sessions! Ok, ok… to be fair, the first three people to book any other type of session with Heather or Frankie can get 25 cards too! Hit us up on Facebook, email us at info@stylizedportraiture.com or give us a ring at 706-247-5086.

Remember, fall portrait season is upon us and session are going fast! Especially the weekend slots! It’s never too soon to book yours!

New fairytales site

Posted in Announcements, Fairy TalesNo comments

Fairytale sessions now have their own page! As Stylized Portraiture continues to grow and change, we’ve decided that the fairytale sessions need to have their own little corner and not be all crammed in with the rest of the studio’s photos. So, explore the new galleries, read previous posts and email us if you spot any errors! The winner of the 2011 Memorial Princess sessions was also posted at the new fairytales site today: http://www.fairyography.com/

Second Annual Memorial Princess Sessions

Posted in AnnouncementsNo comments

Stylized Portraiture announces the second annual Sabina Hartley-Burke and Ava Jane Gibson memorial princess sessions!

Sabina lost her battle with a brain stem tumor on May 31st, 2007. She was eight. Ava Jane Gibson lost her battle with a heart defect on August 5, 2009. She was three. Before each of them left this world, I was lucky enough to meet them for a princess photo session. Since then, I’ve felt like it’s something we have to do for another deserving girl every year.

2010′s winner was Chloe, who has Down’s syndrome and has triumphed over Leukemia: http://www.stylizedportraiture.com/lovely-little-tinkerbell/

You know, sometimes it is hard to believe in Fairy Tales. There are times in life when we want nothing more than a magic wand and a little pixie dust to take us to a happy place! We know that there are some people that you would love to do that for too. Now, where do YOU come in? Let’s be honest; no one loves anything more than hearing the good, fabulous, things people have to say about them or their children. Whether it is that they have triumphed over troubled times, are fighting health issues or that they are just an amazing kid who deserves a little something special, people LOVE to know that other people feel that way about them. So, it is up to YOU to nominate a family that has a little girl(s) between the ages of 18months and 7 years old. Tell us why you think they deserve to have their little girl whisked off to a magical place where she is queen and is photographed as such!

Send us an email sharing why you think the person you are nominating should be THE ONE for this totally awesome package. What makes that little girl so special and why does she deserve to be treated like a queen?

Up for grabs:

A $1200 value fairy tale package

This captivating collection begins with your princess or fairy being photographed at the Botanical Gardens. She will be able to wear one of our couture gowns along with any other accessories she chooses. These are casual sessions with no set time limit and you will be presented with 30-40 fully edited proofs to order from. Included in the collection is a 16×20 wall art piece, a stunning mini accordion album, four digital pictures with reprint rights and a 10×10 leather bound 20 page storybook. The contents of this collection are not a limit; you may choose to purchase further prints at VIP print prices.

Deadline for nominations: Tuesday, August 31st, 2011. Photo sessions will be scheduled for September or October. Email to heather@stylizedportraiture.com Please forward this to everyone you can think of in case they know a deserving girl too!

I promise, we aren’t crazy

Posted in AnnouncementsNo comments

Though, that’s not entirely true. We are maybe a weeeee little bit crazy!

Yes, this would be the 2nd time in two years that we changed the blog design. Yes, we are aware that it is a lot bit excessive. But, we also promise that this change will be much more permanent! In the last two years, so much has changed like moving two times in 6 months.

So, here we are. Again. A new, fresh look, that is much more US and not so “OMG I WANNA RIP MY EYEBALLS OUT!” We are a relaxed, chill group of people. We want our blog to reflect that. Keep the focus on the fabulous people that we photograph, not all the polka dots and links and what not. Clean. Pure. Simple. Totally us:)

This change has also allowed us the fabulous ability to feature one session in the header of the new blog! So, each month, one session will be chosen to be displayed at the top of the page for the next month. Your session could be sitting pretty at the top of the blog for 28, 30, or 31 fabulous days (yes, occasionally 29 on the Leap Year)! Fun, we know;)

Take a look around, familiarize yourself with our new little patch in the World Wide Web, and you just may find a few new surprises that might make you squeal! ;)

We all need a little motivation sometimes!!!

Posted in Announcements2 comments

Our business is about creating fabulous photographs and memories for you guys. We LOVE what we do. But, here’s the deal… the images we create for you should not be the only images you have! Even though Heather and I are professionals, we often times find ourselves not picking up our cameras for those every day moments that happen. Truth be known, my kids’ memories live on my iPhone. *gasp* Go ahead, pick your mouth up off the floor. Yes, my iPhone is my primary camera for my day to day photos. I know Heather uses a point-and-shoot for her photos of her cat!

Anyhow, we thought it would be fun to get you all to join us in a little 30 day challenge. While avoiding my children doing some research for work, I took a little detour over to Pinterest and stumbled upon Abby’s amazing challenge at A Feathered Nest. She came up with this fabulous little chart that has 30 preset subjects all laid out for you! You can even join her flickr group and post along with others!

So please, join us in taking a little time each day in June to capture of photo of the daily item! Head over to our Facebook page and post your photo on our wall! Be sure to tag yourself and us in your photo. For every photo you post, you will be entered into a drawing that could score you a press printed album of your photos! Plus, for each person who COMPLETES the 30 days, we will print your favorite image as an 8×10!!! So for every image you post, you’ll get your name in the album hat. Post all 30, and you have 30 chances PLUS an automatic 8×10 of the photo you love the most:)All photos must be posted by July 3rd.

Remember…these do NOT have to be fabulous photos. They don’t have to be taken with anything other than your phone, like all of mine will be , it’s about the moment! Happy snapping people! *Abby gives permission for you to print the checklist off to use as a guide, so print away:)
