{change is coming...}

It's all changing...coming soon, a whole new look for Portraits by Christa.  My blog and web site will soon be replaced with one combination blog-site - everything you need in one place.  I'm adding the MOST GORGEOUS custom frames - you must have these frames in your home.  I'm also adding some beautiful handmade silk covered session albums, a handmade leather image box with matted images - oh, I can't wait for you to see these!  My collections are changing - it's a whole new world, baby!

The web address will stay the same - so check back often to see what's new.  And tell your friends to check too - I love referrals and even my referral program will be changing - bigger rewards for you for sharing my business with others!

OK, it's not a true post on the blog without a photo, so I'l leave you with a peek at what I'm working on for the new site:

{the schedule is full}

Just a quick update to let you know that my schedule is filled for 2008.  I am no longer scheduling appointments for fall/holiday sessions.  If you are interested in a session and would like to be added to the mailing list, please e-mail me.  I'll notify you when I begin scheduling again for outdoor sessions next spring.

Another great way to stay informed is by subscribing to the blog - just enter your e-mail address to the right for your subscription.  Once you subscribe, remember to check for the confirmation e-mail or your subscription is incomplete.  The blog keeps you up to date on promotions, scheduling, and sneak peeks at all of my sessions.

{catching up...}

I finally have a few minutes to get caught up on my blog updates.  Here are a few peeks at some of my most recent sessions.

{m...i...c...k...e...y...}

Yup, Mickey Mouse!  We'll be visiting Mickey for Halloween this year, so I will be unavailable October 31 through November 5.  If you have any questions about orders, please leave me an e-mail and I will return them as soon as possible.  Thanks for your patience.  Hopefully, I'll have some great pictures to post when I get back.  My kids can't wait to trick-or-treat in the Magic Kingdom!

Have a safe and Happy Halloween - enjoy lots of candy!

What a cutie from this morning's session!  Last time I photographed "A" (last summer) there wasn't a single smile...really, none!  What a difference a year makes!  Toady she was all smiles...see how adorable she is...

There's nothing like watching sisters interact, and Saturday's session was no exception!  These two sisters were so much fun - thanks ladies for a great morning at Meadowlark Gardens.  Enjoy your preview...

Ya'll are keeping me busy this time of year.  But I want to make sure everyone gets there sneak preview!  Here's my fun and fabulous session with tween model "T" - she was striking the poses, and tried most of them for me.  And look how great she did...thanks "T" and mom "T" for a fun night!
