Making them more than just cards, but rather, custom keepsakes for your friends and family to cherish for years to come! You won’t find cards like this at your local pharmacy or chain store folks. Oh and not to worry, if by some chance your prefer the more traditional rectangle cards I am offering those, as well. Check out all the gorgeous options below!

HOORAY, it’s finally done – my new website and blog that is! I was hoping to have this project complete a few weeks ago but it just didn’t happen. Anyway, I am beyond excited to show it to you all today! If you haven’t already peeked, be sure to head over to the website and take a look around. You will notice a lot of new features, such as a very detailed information pages, all new photo galleries and even a new bio page of yours truly. And if you are reading this then I am sure you have noticed the new look of the blog. There are a few new features here as well. One of the big changes is that you now need to click on a specific post to read the entire content and view all the images. The reason I choose this option is that you can now see a lot more of the blog posts at a time, instead of having to scroll endlessly to find something you are looking for. Anyway, I hope you have fun looking around!

• custom designed interiors 

• concealed magnet for soft closure

Here’s a peek at these beautiful new albums! Be sure to ask to see a sample at your next session!

Storyboards are one of my most popular custom designed items. They are printed on photo paper, mounted on styrene & coated with a protective lustre coating. They have several display options, you can frame them, put them on a shelf or in a easel. They come in several popular sizes: 11×14, 10×20, 16×20, 20×20 and my new size 5×10 or the “mini”. Be sure to see this and all of my other custom product samples at your next session.

These custom photo pendants and key rings will be available in a few sizes, 1″, 1.25″ and 1.5″ in both sterling silver and copper. These will be made custom for you with your favorite image from your session in either color or B&W. You will have your choice of size, medium (i.e. copper or sterling) and optional personalization on the back. (Chains can be purchased separately from Kristin’s etsy site. See banner below.)  The possibilities are endless! And with prices starting as low at $30, these will make a wonderful keepsake from your session as well as great gifts! Check out some of the samples below.

This week’s Product Spotlight is on Albums. I currently offer two styles of albums the 8″x8″ and the 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ mini accordion sets.
Let’ start with the 8×8′s. These albums are custom designed and printed on high quality professional photo paper, mounted then bound in a book. The album’s lay flat style, allows for a single image to stretch across two pages without a gutter making a striking presentation. Plus they have custom photo covers and spines. These are a great choice when you love all the images from your session but don’t have much wall space for displaying large galleries.

And let’s not forget about the adorable set of three mini’s. You can choose up to 10 of your favorite images to feature in these sweet dark brown fabric covered albums. They are a great way to show off your favorite images from your session! Keep one for yourself and then gift the other two to family or friends. Plus, they are perfectly sized to tuck right in your purse, so you will always have pictures of your family handy!

P.S. I will now be bringing all of my product samples with me to each session. So, if I forget to show them to you, please be sure to ask. You must see these stunning products in person!
