Special

Images from Halloween Spooktacular

I wanted to share a few sample images from our special "Garage of Horrors" studio event on Halloween Night. Every Trick or Treater that stopped by the garage was offered a free digital picture, and a delicious candy treat! It was lots of fun to do this event and I was really happy to see how excited everyone got once they realized what was going on. Many of our friends and neighbors in the Riverbend area knew in advance that I was planning to take pictures on Halloween night, but we also had lots of others come by that had no idea. I think we surprised and impressed everyone and it was great to see the reactions. I am definitely planning to do something similar again next year, and it also has me thinking about lots of other opportunities to get my neighbours involved. Although I saw lots of really cool costumes, the best showing of all was my friend Nicole and her family. Mom and Dad where dressed as chef's while brought little Baby Alexis (who's not so much a baby anymore) was in her Lobster costume (complete with the pot to boil her in). All the images turned out great, but here are a few more of my favorites:

New Packages and Pricing

I have received some great feedback from a few people that are very important to me that the information available about my Portrait and Lifestyle packages needed some work. They were lacking some important details to begin with, and they were a bit too complicated anyway. In order to fix this I have completely revised all of my packages and pricing. The important details can now be found in two downloadable PDF guides. I will continue to tweak these guides as required based on customer feedback, but the prices will not change significantly in the short term. The Portrait and Print Pricing Guide (Spring 2010) and the Baby's First Year Program Guide are now available for download. Note that the pricing in these guides will take effect immediately, but if you really have your heart set on one of my previous packages then please feel free to ask for it and I'd be happy to oblige. P.S.: Do you want to stay informed of new promotions? Please sign up for the Riverwood Photography News mailing list. Newsletters will go out approximately once a month.
