New and news!

Hey Guys!
As usual, I am behind on blogging and I apologize. I get frequent e-mails from people wanting to see some new stuff. I will do my best to get some new images up...just not tonight. The new studio is coming along and, if I were more organized, would almost be done. However, since everything in my life is a work in progress...I'm sure this will be too. Anyway, it is a fun new place and I think everyone will enjoy the change in scenery.

With that being said, I wanted to get everyone caught up on some things that I hope will be happening in the months ahead. I say "I hope" as I will need your help. However, before I get to that I wanted to tell you about the new product that I have been talking about.

I am still working out the whole process but I have decided to call it "Love Letters" and I think it will be a huge hit. It will be great for Christmas presents!!! Just ask me about it when scheduling your session and I will give you the details if you are intrested. I hope to have some samples to show soon...again a work in progress.

As for the exciting stuff for the months ahead...here goes...

For the month of September... I think we should do "adopt a soldier month". Anyone who brings a care package or an item to go into a care package of at least $15 in value, will receive a 50% disount on their session fees. These items will be mailed to our solders serving overseas. I think it will be a great way to show our support. I'm not sure about you guys but i tend to take a lot of things for granted and would like to be able to tell the guys and gals that we support what they are doing and wish them well and give them some of the comforts of home! I'm not sure of everything that can go into a care package but I know it must be non-perishable and non-liquid. (maybe some of you military people can give us some ideas!!) and I will post the ideas as we receive them. Also, you must have a personal note to go with your item. It can be a word of encouragement, a picture or letter from your child, but lets make this a personal mission!

For the month of October, I like the idea of giving items to the Bethelem House here in Conway. I think it will be a great way to help them gear up for the holiday season. I will get a list from them and get more specifics on that later. Participants for this project will also receive a 50% discount on session fees.

For the months of November and December, anyone who brings a new toy in package with at least a $20 value, will receive 50% off of their session fee. I am looking into where this toy drive will be most needed and any suggestions are most welcome. For anyone who would like to give food to the St. Vincent de Paul society instead of a toy, non-perishable food items with a $20 value will also be greatly appreciated.

I think that is enough information to digest for now. However, I am really excited about the upcoming months and think everyone will benefit from our projects so help me make it happen! If you know of an organization that will benefit from future endeavors, please leave me a comment and it may be considered for future projects.

Okay guys, let me know your thoughts and we will see what happens!
have a great week!
Lisa :)

ps please keep my dear friend Christy and her family in your prayers as they are going through a difficult time right now. We all know that the power of prayer is an amazing thing!
