The times available are 12-2-4-and 6pm.
The 2 new packages will be available on April 6th in the evenings (and other evenings will be added as interest increases) these will start at 6pm and limited to 3 sessions. The mini includes 30 minutes shooting time, eyes only for the makeup including lashes, and a 5×7 folio of your 3 favorite images for only $150! the medium package is available for this day as well and includes 45 minutes shooting time, full airbrush makeup and a 5×7 folio of your favorite 3 images for $200!
We also have just a few spots open for the March boudoir! On Saturday we have 9am and 1pm and Sunday just 9am! So if you’re looking for boudoir email now! All sessions will take place in Geneva, IL in my studio (don’t worry, it will be private!).

Let’s do a before and why not a booking special!
Posted on March 10, 2010
I wasn’t feeling any of my topics for blogging today, many required searching through the thousands of images on my external hard drive to give you wedding inspiration, don’t worry, they’ll come back soon, I’m going to do some flower love and detail lovin’!
So here’s the space before, ignore the iphone photos, when I first got there, I realized that I forgot a memory card in my big-girl camera. So iPhone photos it was.
(don’t worry, they cleared all that stuff out for me!)
some in progress, look at that great light coming in…
and you already saw the finals! I had a lot that had to get done from painting, laying the floor and the trim, and then there was everything else that just took forever! But I’m so happy it’s done! So stop by and see me!! Anyone who stops by gets a small gift!
I’ll be there Tuesday and Thursday from 4-8 and other times by appointment! But those two days are the official days and will be, I’ll announce if that will be extended or not! Or if you just want to stop by and say hi!
I will be there this Saturday from 11-4 as well as another mini opening day, not all the pomp and circumstance but still lots of fun!
And I’m having a studio booking special! Book a wedding and receive a free 8×8 engagement album for sign ins! This is a fun way to use your photos from your engagement session and another thing you don’t have to worry about! That’s a $200 value! It ends April 7th, so get to it!
Hope to see you soon!

The opening!
Posted on March 9, 2010
I would like to thank everyone who came out (and even those that couldn’t make it but sent me messages!) I really appreciated all of it! Today I spent my first meeting there, going over album choices and layouts, it was perfect and really why I wanted this space! It was a rough road and I’ll have before and after pictures but as I told everyone, it was like buying a house, you first see it and you’re like “oh this won’t be much work at all!” then you get in and you start cursing everything in it and why the last person did something the way they did. You deal with images falling off one wall (yes, I’m still fighting that one brown wall!!)
I would also like to thank everyone for putting up with the crazy dog!
this is the shooting side, quite boring but it needs to be that way
the meeting side
some of the flowers generously provided by Kristen from Kio Kreations! She did them in my logo colors and I just loved them! They were so unique!
another photo wall of 8×10’s
I do have all my products that I offer there from my new albums and canvases!
I bought a cookie, but forgot a knife, I’m not even 1/4 of the way through it, who wants some cookie?!
I had water and capri sun for drinks, I was skeptical but the capri sun went over very well, be prepared to drink some if you come to visit! I have leftovers!
the shoes I started with….
my adorable flats I ended with…though most of the time, I went barefoot! It’s my place, it’s allowed.
the boys and the dog decided to take a short nap during a lull in action.
the hubs got really comfortable!
and since the hubby took over the couch, Isabelle retreated to the rug.
the toy duck that Isabelle shoved in everyone’s face.
this is what I look like a lot of the time isn’t it?
I was using my super wide 14-24 2.8 so the lens that is huge, really looks that way!
The dog, happy to go home!
I will have winners and a before and after soon!!!

Glad you got rid of that horrible red….
Oh yeah, it was HORRID. I walked in and said it had to go! The walls were also a nasty yellow. YUCK. And at some point some of the walls were a BRIGHT pink, it was awful!
