Summer 2009/2010 Newsletter

Summer 2009/10 Newsletter

Christmas is almost here, meaning another year is almost over… at the beginning of this year I had very good intentions of keeping a tally of all the people ive photographed during the year, so this newsletter could say something like: ‘this year we’ve shot xx blushing brides, xx pregnant bellies, xx snuggly newborns, xx crazy kids, xx gorgeous families, xx family dogs’, etc, but ah, that just didnt happen! What I can tell you is that ive really found a new appreciation for working mums – I didnt reaplise it would be this hard!!!! I did my first shoot after Tom was born, when he was 17 days old (still wearing thongs, as the fankles hadn’t gone yet!), and shot a wedding when he was just 6 weeks old…. He’s now just a week or so off being 11 months, man thats flown!

PORTRAIT SESSIONS, PRICING & 2 SPECIALS!: I had a bunch of enquiries in the last few weeks of November / first week of December, for families wanting portraits for their Chrissy cards & pressies…. im so sorry that I couldnt fit you in – I do hope you found a photographer who wasnt booked out (or you managed to find alternative cards & presents!)

Our lifestyle portrait session pricing will be changing on January 1, however any booking made by reply e-mail to this newsletter (until 31/1/10) will be able to take advantage of the current prices. Ah heck  – as Im in the Christmas spirit – any portrait booking made prior to Christmas Day will get 33% off their booking fee too – thats a saving of $50! ** Note, only bookings need to be made prior to those dates, for sessions to be held in the first half of 2010. ** Please call me on 0416 006 779 / 02 8824 7895 or e-mail lauren@tigerlilyphotography.com.au with the heading ‘Newsletter Special’ – as this special is only available to newsletter readers **
