Happy Halloween 2011!

I hope everyone is having a fantabulous Halloween and that you got to do some fun stuff with the kiddies or your friends or fam or whomever this weekend! :)  I went to 2 different Halloween parties (adult parties) dressed as a firefighter.  Gotta love our heroes. ;)  I also painted pumpkins with my son (waaaay easier and more fun, in my opinion, than carving them!). :) :)

Here's a few pics to share - a few of my son, our pumpkins, and his Halloween costume, and then the rest of a few other Halloween cuties that I met up with! :)  I don't have any pics of me dressed up...I think there's a couple floating around out there, but I haven't seen them yet. :) :)

What did you and/or your kid(s) dress up as for Halloween this year???

Mason - 6 months

Oh how I love happy, smiley babies!!  They just make me feel all ooey gooey inside.  You honestly cannot help but smile back at a baby that smiles at you, it's literally impossible.  I dare one of you to try and prove me wrong.

:)

Speaking of smiley babies, I got to meet up with this adorable 6 month old baby yesterday for his next set of pictures through my "Baby's First Year" package (truly a great investment, that first year just holds SO MUCH change and it all happens so quickly).  Looking back at how he's grown, it just amazes me how much he's changed in just 6 months - Mason

Here's a little sneak peek at our session - he seriously couldn't stop smiling....except for when he was snacking on his wittle toes...priorities you know  :) :)

$25 Portrait Specials

This past Sunday I offered an awesome deal - $25 for a quick mini-shoot, single person portrait, with an 8x10 print.  Just something to fill some extra time I had this weekend and an option for those who didn't want a full session at this time.

I will probably offer this special again in the near future...I didn't announce this one on my email mailing list - it was purely a Facebook offer, but I believe the next one will be advertised on my mailing list so if you'd like to be notified when it's scheduled, please send me an email at crystal@averyjamesphotography.com to make sure you're on my email distribution. :)

I was able to meet with 2 beautiful little girls for their portraits at this past session.  How gorgeous are both of them??  The one beauty has these gorgeous hazel eyes, and the other beauty has those huge, dark almond eyes...she looks like a little Pocahontas princess. :) :)

I offer the print in either color or black and white, and personally I can't decide which I like better - b/w ends up giving the photo a completely different look and feel....very classic and really makes the faces pop.  So I just decided to post both versions here - would love to hear what your favorites are. :)

Hope everyone is having a great week! :)
