Back To School Portraits

School photos are, well, boring.  My son always seems to show a lot more teeth than I ever really thought he had, and tends to squint his eyes like he’s walking on the face of  the sun.  Why?  Because school portrait photographers (and I know this from experience!) spend about 25-30 seconds with each kid, because let’s face it, they have a lot to get done in one day!

The solution?  Have some portraits taken at AVP this month and I’ll spend the time it takes to capture some real smiles, just the right amount of teeth, and actual smiling EYEBALLS instead of a half-moon of eyelashes.

This September, we’re including a free 2011 customized calendar with your favorite photo!  (See below)  These calendars are mounted and tied at the top with matching ribbon for a beautiful display in your home, and you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite photo all year next year!

Sessions must take place in September, and can be family portraits or just great shots of your kids as they enter into their next big year of school.  And, it’s a great time to think ahead for holiday gifts!  CHECK!

CALL TODAY to reserve your session date.  Weekend and evening times available.

I had the honor of photographing Parker as a newborn and was so excited to see him all beefed up!  BEEFCAKE!  The sun popped out for just a few hours while we were in Cannon Beach two weekends ago and during that time I was able to get some fun shots of P and his parents enjoying the rays.  This kid has a LOT of love in his life!
