Why we do what we do {Children Photographer Okemos, Lansing, Senior Portraits}

Sometimes I have days where I say to myself "THIS is why I am in photography", which is what I thought when this little doll, J, came in on Friday with her grandmother and parents.  She is as an absolute delight!  Her smile reflects her personality - funny, sweet, and just oh, so precious!   We were so lucky to be able to spend that time with her - and create some images we're rather proud of. :-)

To make this experience even more special, her grandmother told me that she had her senior portraits done by us, and her father and son both had portraits by us - so J here was the 4th generation of the family to be in our studio.  The fourth.   She said when she wondered where to take J for her one year portraits, of course she thought of Okemos Studio!   She said it was great we were still here - and that's because of our quality.  I think she felt fortunate - when we were the ones to feel fortunate to have such an amazing time photographing this little girl.

THIS is why I do what I do.

Senior Season has begun! Class of 2105! {Senior Photos, Senior Portraits, Lansing, MI Photographer, Okemos MI Photographer}


Ok, we're ready - Class of 2015 Senior Season.  Bring it.

We know what you're thinking: "Senior Season?  Already?  But I don't graduate until June of 2015!"  Oh, yes, we know, but your yearbook portrait is due in the fall!   This means it's best to be photographed during the summer before senior year begins.

So, here it is -summer and time for senior portraits.   And truly - the earlier in the summer, the better.   Remember what Back To School is like?   Or fall sports practices?  Summer is a short 12 weeks long, or less for some schools.   It will go by fast.   Book your session now and get one more thing off your list of Summer Accomplishments.

Sure, you could wait until you start your Summer Reading List (late August, perhaps?) to book your session, but then you'll be in a time crunch!  And trying to read "Anna Karenina" in the dressing room? And subject to our fickle Michigan weather in trying to get your session done before Labor Day.   That's a pain.  Trust us.  We've been doing this a long time.  Call soon, you won't regret it.

Do it now - Call on June 4th and you can get 16 free wallets when you're photographed in June (if you order by July 15)!   Combine that with our $75 in discounts and rebates for our Deluxe or Favorite Sessions and you can Really save some big bucks.

And who doesn't mind saving some big bucks?

Do it now - summer's a great time.  See?
