Spring/Summer Purple Turtle Models

2010-06-22T12:15:00.001-07:00

Please check out the Purple Turtle page for all the models that we used this season. I think they are so adorable, I love all the spring colors that we could find.

If you are interested in your child becoming a model, please contact me or Karen at the Purple Turtle. We are looking for natural looks, not pagent looks. This isnt' a beauty contest, we are on the look out for new faces to adorn the walls :)

I will meet with all of you in July, we will pick the kids and contact you if your child has been chosen. We are also planning on adding another wall to our gallery, so we have plenty of room for our previous models as well as the new ones.

Have a great week everyone. Thanks for taking a peek at my work.

Oak Hill Elementary Fundraiser

2007-10-09T19:51:00.000-07:00

I have been asked to do a fundraiser for the Oak Hill Schools. If you buy a ticket from one of the children you will be getting a free session fee, and all of the proceeds from the tickets go to the school. I will also be doing packages just for this fundraiser and the schools will get a percentage of the proceeds. This offer is for a limited time only.

You have your choice of a Family Portrait or Children's Christmas Portraits. All of the family pictures will be taken at Lake Jackson, and the Christmas pictures will be taken at my home. There will be different backgrounds and props for you to choose from for your children's Christmas portraits. You will also have several different Christmas cards to choose from in 2 different sizes, 4 x 8 or 5 x 7. If you have any questions, please contact me or Oak Hill Elementary.

Thank you for supporting our schools :)
