Free Bridal Session!!

WINNERS HAVE BEEN CHOSEN! They are Megan McBarnes, Seana Johnson, Jessica Nyhuis, and Lindsy Matteoni! Congratulations to you 4!!

It's giveaway time!! I have been wanting to do a stylized bridal session for quite awhile to add another aspect to my art! So I have decided to give a session away!

Here are the details!

- I will be drawing 1 to 3 names for this session! It may be 3 brides so be open to a group session!

- You MUST be open to sitting on the ground and getting your dress wet if I choose a beach setting. It could get dirty so be prepared!

- You must also be open to wearing jewelry and shoes that I may decide to provide.

- We will probably be getting hair done. I will be providing a stylist if we do!

- Session will be sometime in June, July, or August so if you wont be married until the fall I wont be able to use you, Sorry!

- Session will be shot in Grand Haven.
- It's all free to you! As a thank you I will give you a CD of 20 images or more to print!

- Must be willing to commit! I want to work with you and even though it's free it's something we are both committing to as much as if you had decided to hire me!

If you're interested let me know! Please send me a picture of your dress if I didn't shoot your wedding so I can get an idea of what I'll be working with! My email is eviephoto@yahoo.com. It's VERY important that I see your dress so that I can plan! I'll be drawing names out of a 'hat' so it's fair! Thank you for your help!!

Winners will be announced via facebook or email if you're not on!

Newborn Session Information and Tips

I have quite a few little ones on the way so I figured I would add a few notes about newborn sessions! Let me know if you have more questions! I can always add more!!

I can't wait to meet all your little ones!


Newborn Session Information:

Location:
Newborn sessions are done at my home studio. The room is kept warm for your little ones!

Props and Outfits:
I have many props, headbands, outfits, etc... available so unless you have a specific costume or dress up piece in mind it is not necessary to bring any outfits to the session. If you feel that you would like to bring something bring jeans, diaper covers, or simple dresses or skirts. I also have stools, chairs, buckets, etc... so unless there is something specific you want in your images we're all set!

Time Slot:
Sessions can last 2 to 4 hours depending on how sleepy and cooperative your baby is. Please do not plan anything for after the session as I can't guarantee the time frame and we don't want to rush your session!

Bring Extra Diapers:
Please bring extra diapers, more than you think you will need just in case!

Schedule ASAP:
It is very important that you schedule your newborn portrait session as soon as possible after your child is born.  In order to be able to get all of the images most mothers want, your baby needs to be photographed when he or she is 10 days old or younger.  Babies are much more flexible and sleepy at this stage, which are necessary for many of the newborn poses you may want!

Lotion:
Please use baby safe lotion on any areas of dry skin that your baby may have, before arriving at the photo shoot. Feel free to also bring it with you if you require a specific lotion for your child.

Feed your baby before you arrive:
This is very important!! Please feed your baby before you arrive and be prepared to possibly need to bottle feed or nurse your baby as soon as you arrive at the studio. A full tummy and satisfied baby at the beginning of the shoot is one of the most important steps of getting baby to fall asleep, and more sleep equals more images of your baby.

Be patient:
We may have to pause and stop to feed or settle your baby many times. It's completely normal! The more patient we are with your child the better they will be for their pictures!

Remember these and we should have a fun, successful session with your new little one!
