Special Offer!

I’m putting together a new package deal for baby’s first year, where ultimately new moms would get huge discounts when the decide to document their baby’s growth through periodic portraits with Serravision Photography. The details aren’t 100% ironed out yet, but I’m thinking between 4-6 sessions would be included for close to 50% off regular price, and a custom designed photo collage of the baby’s first year would be created at the end.

So as you may have deduced, I am interested in finding a client for a trial run. The ideal client will be a woman who is currently pregnant and due sometime in the next 4 months. I would waive the $150/session creative fee on 6 studio sessions throughout the baby’s first year including maternity, newborn, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 1 year sessions. That is a $900 value! From each session, you’ll receive a web-ready disk with all your images to e-mail friends and family or post online. If you choose to purchase higher resolution images, prints, or any other products I’ll extend a 50% discount on all your purchases.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, or you know someone who is pregnant and might like to document her baby’s first year in this way, please let me know as soon as possible! Please tell your friends and family, I’ll only be taking one client on as a sample subject for this package so don’t delay. This is certainly the best deal I’ll offer for quite a while, and I’m so excited to meet my new mom-to-be!

Why I take Photographs

Maternity Photo Collage from 2008

There are so many reasons why I love taking photographs. The most compelling reason I can come up with off the top of my head this morning is the desire to share this life with people and capture it’s beauty.

Every portrait session is unique in its energy, its purpose, and its style in the moment. I love sitting down and looking through the photography that I’ve captured, but it’s just that much more rewarding when the photos find their way back to me again. For example, a mom that I worked with for maternity and newborn portraits back in 2008 sent me a note recently.

She said about her now one and a half year old daughter, “Ixa currently drags around the collage you made of my pregnancy pictures and talks about it all the time- it’s her favorite mama picture at the moment! thanks again!!”

If you’ve had doubts about why it’s important to allow a professional photographer to help you capture your memories, here’s just one testament to it’s true value.

November Girl

This lovely little girl was such a champ, her mom and dad brought her into the studio and although I’d been there for 3 hours trying to warm it up, it was hardly 60 degrees in the room and just would not warm up! We had two space heaters on her and wrapped her in this little pink pod courtesy of Sarah Garrison, a local artist, and she finally fell asleep so we could get a few adorable shots. Thanks for sharing your daughter, and letting me take her first photographs!

Newborn in the Summer

Serra — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 01:52:34 +0000

Summer is such a great time for newborn babies. This little one just never wears clothes, it’s warm and comfortable and natural and beautiful, which of course translates to her newborn portrait session. We took her outside and lounged around, lying on mom’s belly or in dad’s arms. Then we set up a blanket in her boppy and put her down for a nap amongst petals from the rose bush. I just can’t get over the beauty of this day.
