Valentine’s Day Mini Sessions!
Posted on December 27, 2010
I’m so excited to announce these! I’ll be doing two sets of Mini Sessions. The first will be Vintage Angel and the second will be for older kids (details coming soon). Vintage Angels will be on Saturday January 22nd from 9 am to 11:45. Each session is 45.00 for 15 minutes and includes 3-5 images on a cd. Images are full resolution and will also be uploaded to Mpix.com so that in addition to the cd you’ll have a place to purchase high quality prints at low prices. Babies should be able to sit up to use the gold wings and these can be used up to any age. With baby girls you can use the ruffle outfit or nothing, with older girls I’ll have a little wrap so that they’ll be “modest” angels
. I also have some hair pieces that will fit some baby girls and toddlers. To schedule your session first check with me either via email (Jenniferjphoto@aol.comr) or via phone (736-0030) to see what times are left then purchase your session using the button below. Your spot is not reserved until payment is received. Please let me know if you have any questions and I can’t wait to see your little angels!

Countdown to Christmas day Sixteen: Quad City Moms in Business
Posted on December 22, 2010
Congrats to yesterday’s THREE winners!!
Lindsey Hall (newborn boy wrap)
Pamela Savala (newborn girl wrap and hair accessory)
Jennifer Parker (baby girl hair accessory)
Today’s sponsor is Quad City Moms In Business. It’s a fantastic networking group connecting moms that have a home based business together. I found this group shortly after I reopened this year and have made some great new friends and have also started a few new addictions (but hey my house smells fantastic and I have a super cute new purse!!). Here’s what Michelle Praught founder has to say about QCMIB….
Countdown to Christmas day Fifteen: Little Cans of Beans
Posted on December 21, 2010
Congrats to yesterday’s winner Emily Larson!
Today’s sponsor is Little Cans of Beans and we’re going to be giving away THREE prizes! The first two are for the pregnant mamas out there, one newborn girl will win a hair accessory and one newborn wrap, one newborn boy will win a wrap. And then the third prize will be for a baby girl and she will win one hair accessory! Because these are custom made and take a little time both to make and then ship these would be best for babies due in January (as opposed to say tomorrow lol). These would make a beautiful shower gift as well. And because it’s not possible to do a newborn mini session along with today’s items you’ll also win 45.00 off your newborn session when you bring these goodies to your session! For the baby girl with her beautiful headband she’ll win a mini session as well showcasing her in her new headband!
Here are some beautiful samples of her work!
To be entered to win check out her store and tell me your favorite thing, in addition to that please tell me if you’re entering for the boy or the girl!!!
Countdown to Christmas day Fourteen: Magens Bay
Posted on December 20, 2010
Congrats to yesterday’s winner Lindsay Golinghorst!
Today’s sponsor is Magens Bay and they have things boys and girls can enjoy…custom made blocks! Today’s lucky child will win a set of handmade blocks to play with in colors that work great for a boy or girl! And of course a long with the blocks you’ll also win a mini session showcasing your child (or the child you’re giving them to) playing with the blocks!
What the owner has to say about Magens Bay…My name is Brooke and I thought I would share a little about where Magens Bay Designs started from. Magens Bay is in the Virgin Islands where I found a little bit of paradise. I would love to travel back there someday and thought it would be a perfect fit to use Magens Bay in the name of my Etsy shop.
I have been told before that I must have been born with the “creative” bone. I guess that could be true since I have been creating things for as long as I can remember. The inspiration for my blocks came from my son. From an early age he was intrigued with blocks of any kind. Naturally I wanted to make him a personalized set of his own. Then followed birthday, baby shower, and Christmas gifts. With a friends encouragement and a little determination we each opened our own Etsy stores in late 2009. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to create educational yet entertaining toy for little ones to enjoy. I really enjoy making blocks and always looks for new designs.

Countdown to Christmas Day Thirteen: It’s Too Too Cute!
Posted on December 19, 2010
Congrats to yesterday’s winner Casey Wilson!
Today we have another fantastic local sponsor! If you missed out on the tutu on day four then here’s your chance…today’s lucky little girl is going to win one free tutu (three standard or shiny colors) up to size 4T *or* $20 off one custom tutu from It's Too Too Cute! And of course if you're local (or the little girl you're giving it to is) you'll also win a mini session showcasing your little ballerina in her tutu!
Anne provides custom made tutus to fit your child’s size and color preference. She can also make matching tutus for your child’s favorite doll/stuffed animals and bows to match your child's tutu! If that doesn't have "photo op" written all over I don't know what does!
