If you know me at all, you know NOT a shopper. I’m more of an online girl. I’d never brave the 4am crazy insane Black Friday crowds for a mere 25% off. But, I still like to get a deal. With that, I’d ♥ to offer you a great Black Friday sale of my own 
I also tend to wait on things until the last minute. The “get it one day only” sales tend to irritate me. So instead… How about Black Friday WEEKEND Sale {cheer…}
You will have the opportunity, from right NOW until 11:59pm on Sunday, November 29th, to take advantage of a couple of deals.
First, how about double your money for 2010! Here is the low down… Print Gift certificates are available to purchase for you OR for someone you just think is so wonderful you can’t stand it! How does Double Value grab ya? So….. Say you buy $100 print gift certificate today, then you schedule your session with me in August – well that $100 print gift certificate is now worth $200!!!!!! Pretty fabulous, eh!!
Here are the nitty gritty details – You cannot use these on previous sessions. It has to be used on NEW sessions that occur in 2010. The print gift certificates come in $50 and $100 increments and are good for desk and wall prints. They are not valid toward session fees or specialty items. I really really recommended that gift certificates being purchased for someone other than yourself be done so only for those that have already expressed interest in having portraits taken with me in the coming year. There are no refunds on gift certificates and no cash value. They will expire at the end of 2010.
Sound good? Want more? OK, one more…
How about a digital file sale? If you would like to purchase your entire 2009 session on disk.. be able to print them at your leisure to continue to decorate your home, to give as gifts this season, to use them for scrapbooking or whatever you could dream up, give me a shout! This Black Friday Weekend only, I will be selling full session digital file disks for $400! This is well over a half off deal!! Fine print… this deal is available for clients who have completed their final order prior to November 15th, 2009. Please email me for more information.
Give the gift of photography this holiday season! Fa-La-La…
I’m an editing machine this week. I’m trying to finish things up so that I can take a good 2-3 days off with my family for Thanksgiving. Aaaaalmost done with my session from yesterday with one of my favorite families. I’ve photographed them twice before and it’s always fun to see how miss carly has grown. She just shines when she smiles. I couldn’t wait mom and dad…. had to share a couple {smile} I’ll have the rest for you soon.
I am happy to participate in the “Giving is Awesome” cause again this year. I would like to start by thanking Kristen Kalp of Essential Imagery for this truly awesome idea. She is not only one of the funniest, wittiest chickies I know, she is also the brainchild behind this incredible giving idea. Last year she encouraged photographers to donate during the holiday season and started this amazing website to track the donations of photographers all around the world! In total, $565,000 was donated. And now we’re ready to do it again {grin} Now, onto the awesomely awesomeness that is the heart of this season….the spirit of giving…..
You know someone. You know someone who’s experienced a tragedy, is struggling to stay afloat, is raising kids while holding down several jobs, or is volunteering selflessly despite extenuating personal circumstances. You know someone who can’t afford custom photography, but who would cherish it this holiday season. You know someone who deserves a year-round reminder of their family’s spirit, love, and beauty.
You know someone. I guarantee it.
I want to know who they are, and I want to give them the chance to experience complimentary custom photography — $1500 worth, to be exact. This will cover cost of the the session itself, 10 gift prints and a disk of all the session’s images. It’s in your power to give them the artwork they deserve this holiday season.
Oh, and the best part? The person who nominates the winner receives a $200 gift print credit! What better reason to show some love could there possibly be, people?
If you don’t really know someone, please pass this post along to others. Someone, somewhere, knows a deserving family. I know it!
The rules:
* You cannot nominate yourself, and the person nominated must sincerely be incapable of purchasing my services. (Being unable to make mortgage payments for a two-million-dollar-vacation-home in Paris does not qualify as sincere financial need.)
* The nominee must reside in Austin or its surrounding areas. Tell me who you know, what they’re experiencing, and why they deserve my giveaway. Please include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself as well.
* You must e-mail me the full story HERE before December 20th, 11:59pm.
The winner will be announced on Christmas Eve — get nominating! I can’t wait to read all of your entries!
Open your heart to someone this holiday season — and thanks for giving me the opportunity to open mine.
With love,
Mollie
