NEW PANEL - MORE MODERN

Ok here goes my great idea for the new baby panel. Forget the days of just one picture from each session ( you know the tradtional panel with 3,6,9,and12 month picture) now you can have several pictures to show off from the sessions. My friend Ginger started this with her son Rhett when they came at the 3 month session and we just continued throughout the whole baby plan. At the end of the 4 sessions she had 4 collages that she hung all together on a wall and we call it the new and much improved baby panel. You can do it in color or black and white. It's up to you.

Basically each collage is a square 12x12 print with 9 pictures on each one. Just pick out your favorite 9 and we will design the first collage and then keep that same layout throughout the first year.

Each collage is $110.00 - so that's $440 over one year period - and a regular baby panel here runs $200-250 and it only has 4 images on it. I'm not saying I don't like the traditional panel, but if you are wanting to do something more unique and modern this is the way to go!

Circle of Life

Friends,

Just wanted to catch you all up on some things that have been going on in my life. First of all I wanted to pay tribute to wonderful man. On Monday the 14th, we lost my father-in-law to lung cancer. His grandchildren called him Pappy, he loved Alabama football and loved to fish. This picture we took at Christmas and is the only we have of the whole family (I was about 5 days pregnant, so that counts as the whole family) He has 3 children and 3 grandchildren, and of course one on the way. He had only been diagnosed 4 weeks prior to his death. We were all there with him when he passed away. Jason was able to say his goodbyes and hold his hand. We will miss you Pappy!

So this week has been especially hard and my schedule has obviously gotten behind. We got back in town Wednesday night and I had over 20 messages on the answering machine about orders and appointments. I apologize for not informing you, but it all just happened so fast. Anyway, I am back in the studio now and working hard to catch up. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

On another note - my pregnancy is going well. I've started to get a little tummy and just the last few days have felt flutters. We were fortunate enough to do an ultrasound at 16 weeks and found out that we are having a boy. We did it early in hopes of finding out to let Jason's dad know. God works wonders, because if we had waited till our next appointment in May it would have been too late to have those memories. I am so excited about this little boy. I can't wait to meet him and just get know his personality. I will keep you all posted as we continue down this path.

Please keep us in your prayers!

BABY ON THE WAY....

Yep! I'm pregnant! YEAH!! We are thrilled, excited, anxious, nervous, happy, overwhelmed and overjoyed all at once. My due date is the end of September, so it will be a hot summer for sure. Being a mom is going be great just from watching all the babies and kids coming here. I can't wait to photograph my own child and experiment with new ideas.

Many want to know what my schedule will be after the baby gets here. If everything goes as planned I want to start back part time by the end of October. So if you are on the baby plan during that time, don't worry we will get you an appointment as close to the date you need as possible. My assistant Misti will be in the studio working on orders and appointments. Feel free to call her with any questions or orders.

I will get more detailed on this later, just wanted everyone to know our GREAT NEWS!

I will try to post pregnancy pics of myself when I get around to taking some and ultrasound pics too.

HAPPY SPRING!
Jennifer

EASTER SESSION

You heard it right - EASTER is not too far off. Dates: March 13-14 only about 8 time slots available. Very few props will be used and no live animals will be present. We just want to capture your child in their Easter outfits with their baskets. Call now to make your appointment.

2008 PRICE LIST COMING SOON!

Well my break is almost over and I'm trying to get back in the swing of things. I am working on a new price card for 2008 that will go into effect in February. So if you have any orders to get in, make sure to do that by the end of this month. Some prices are changing, mostly on the larger prints. Be looking online in the next week or so for new pricing. If you are on my mailing list you will be receiving one by mail. If you would like to be on the mailing list simply email me at jenmtidwell@yahoo.com and request a price card for 2008.

I've gotten some new props and new ideas for 2008. I can't wait to get back to shooting. I miss it after being on a two week break. This break has been just what I needed to get recharged for 2008.

We had a wonderful Christmas with our families. My husband's family came to our home this year for a couple of days. We had fun and even got out in the studio to make pictures of my nieces and nephew. Here are some pics I thought I would share.

Happy New Year!
Jennifer

Break!

Greetings from a very tired photographer!

The holiday rush is almost over and I am thrilled about my upcoming break. We will be closed from Dec 22nd- Jan 10th. No appointments during this time, but I will be available to make appointments or schedule times to pick up any orders or proofs. Just call and leave a message. I will get back to you as soon as I get a chance. We will be visiting our families and possibly taking a short trip to Gatlinburg.

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year.

Looking forward to serving you in the new year!

God Bless You!
