Those new years ones never work anyway :P, so how about a resolution since we're about halfway through 2008?
Here goes -- I hereby resolutely state that I will, from this date forward, update my blog at least twice a month! How hard can that be, right? Twice a month! Let's start with that.
I feel pretty bad because I know there are a number of people who follow my blog pretty regularly, checking in often to see if there is anything new. So on top of the fact that we have been mostly website-less for the past month, it's gotta be pretty disappointing to have no new Star Dust to chomp on when you check in. There was a time when I posted images from every session! I'd really, truly like to get back to that. I have had some *incredible* sessions this year, and haven't shared my favorites!
So, I'm diving back in. The truth is, I *love* blogging, it is just one of those things that get put on the back burner while I handle shoots, orders, designs, etc.
To celebrate my dive back in, I want to introduce my newest Limited Edition session. Adoption is a topic close to my heart, because I was adopted by my family when I was four months old. The family that chose me was an incredible gift, and I simply could not have been luckier! Most adoptees will tell you that there is no 'adoptive family' -- it's just FAMILY. But, many of us do celebrate our 'second birthday' -- the day that we came to our families.
My idea with these Limited Edition sessions is to celebrate that day when your stories joined. These are the Gotcha! Sessions :).
The details: Gotcha! Sessions are -- weekday studio sessions only, 20 minute 'mini' sessions, and the session *must* take place during the month of your Gotcha! Day. There is NO SESSION FEE and no minimum order, but we must have a signed release so we may use the images in our portfolio. You will receive an online slideshow for three days, showcasing 10-12 images from your session. Session is limited to the adopted child and immediate family -- mom, dad, brothers and sisters.
Call us at the studio to set up your session time. We look forward to celebrating your Gotcha! Day with you! Please remember we often book up 4-6 weeks in advance, so call early!
I'd like to share a poem that my mom had up in our home, where she would see it daily, for my entire childhood. Although I have not adopted a child, as a mother I understand the depth of feeling in these words and they really mean a lot to me.
