Are you looking for a snow fight without getting cold?|Texas snow fight

What if you could get most of your Christmas presents DONE and figured out today, with just ONE decision?

Well, EVERYONE knows grandparents/parents/relatives LOVE photos of you and your kids 🙂 So why not make the decision to do a mini session today?

PLUS it’s fun…

If the thought of watching your kids blast each other (and maybe even you) with fake snow is appealing, then you’re a lot like the other people who have booked the Family Mini Session + Snow Fight Kicker Sessions!

And if it doesn’t appeal to you?

That’s cool too…you can just take a peek at everyone else’s photos, have a little laugh, and keep on keepin’ on.

I just wanted to write you a quick note letting you know that the $97 Early Bird pricing goes up in a few days – November 27th to $127.

Plus, I’m only taking on 20 sessions. Note: there are more than 20 spots on the calendar for scheduling flexibility, but once the 20 spots are filled, those extra spots will go away

What it is:

10-15 minute photo sessions to get a grand family portrait update for this year’s Holiday cards, AND the last 2-3 minutes will be a BLAST of throwing fake snow at each other! Your kids will love to get the chance to smash fake snow in your face and at each other.

Dates and times:

Monday December 2nd           Friday December 6th           Saturday December 7th

Who this is perfect for:

If you’ve been trying to drag your husband to family photos, but he isn’t diggin’ it…this is perfect! Short, sweet, AND fun!

If you’ve had a traditional, longer 45-60 minute family portrait session done in the past 1-2 years and don’t want to invest in a full on session, this is perfect for you.

If you love having your photos taken, SO MUCH that you do it multiple times a year, and this time you’d really just like a nice portrait for your Christmas Card and a few gifts, and you don’t want to go full on in for an album, this is perfect!

If you don’t know WHAT to get your parents for the Holidays, because, let’s face it, they buy everything they want! Then this is PERFECT for you! Photos are grandma’s DREAM for a Christmas gift!

If you ARE a grandparent, and want photos with your grandkids! Or, if you want to give one of these sessions as a “pre-holiday” gift…as a “hint-hint, nudge-nudge” for what YOU really want for Christmas.

If you just don’t have the time to put together everything for a full on portrait session. Where DID the year go? And now it’s almost Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and CHRISTMAS!

Anyone up for a Snow Fight in Carrollton Texas?|I will clean up the mess

Raise your hand if you love snow…. but you hate to be cold… and you live in Texas… Dallas to be specific.

If you raised your hand, then you probably don’t have very many memories of playing in the snow or even getting to touch the snow.  If you are like me, a native Texan, then most of your ideas and dreams of snow come from TV, FB, or in my case, The Hallmark Channel.

This is what inspired my SNOW FIGHT mini session. I see beautiful pictures of snow and snowmen on FB and in movies, but we just don’t have that here in Texas. So, I created a snow set in my camera room.

I don’t think kids are the only ones allowed to have fun, so bring the whole family.  We will start with a quick family portrait session and a few small groups and then have a quick snow fight at the end.  Boom, we have your portraits for family gifts, Christmas cards and created some really fun family memories.

P.S. tell dad it’s a mini session, so it won’t be too painful for him.

What is happening at Texas Tradition Photography? Could it be a New Limited Edition Portrait set?

YES!  It could!  If you are a long time follower of Texas Tradition Photography, then you are aware that last year was our first time in 15 years to NOT do Santa portraits.  This was a VERY hard decision for us to make, however sometimes we have to take a step back in order to move forward.

I felt that our children’s portrait offerings were become a little tired… stale… boring…etc. And for us in the creative world, this is never a good feeling.  I either want to give you 100%, or nothing at all.  I took the year off from Limited Edition sessions to brainstorm and survey and find out exactly which road I wanted to take with my children’s portraits.  My biggest goals are 1. to make it easy for my parents 2. make it fun for the kids and 3. make it exceptionally creative and unlike anything offered in my area.

There are hundreds of photographers in Dallas and I don’t want to mingle in with the crowd.  I want to stand out. And I know YOU will benefit from the year of waiting! Here is a little peek of what’s on the horizon. Just to give you a little taste, this set will be designed for kids ages… sitting up to about 8 years old.  However, I think a small family would be cute too.

 

We aren’t taking appointments yet, but if you’d like to save the date, it will be Thursday November 29 and Saturday Dec. 1st. Yes, two days only! In fact, if you’d like to be put on the waiting list, I will call you BEFORE I announce it!  Just fill out the form below to get on the waiting list.  More details to come!!
