Updated photog blog and question

Check out the work I've done this summer on my photography blog! The link should be on the side of this page.

Starting in September, I will start taking bookings for Christmas card family pics. I am thinking of having a Mini-Session Christmas card day where people can meet me in downtown Fayetteville for a 30 minute mini-session where the fee would include the session and a certain amount of Christmas cards included. Help me out here:

What would make an event like this appealing?

What would you like to see a photographer offer to you the consumer?

Tell me what you think!

Eli's First Hair Cut

Make a Smilebox slideshow

Umm... We are still alive...

I said from the beginning that I would have a really hard time keeping up with this thing and I have stayed true to my word... I always forget about this thing...


Thankfully, I have been busy with photography and because of that I am going to only work part time next year. While starting this business has been extremely time consuming and made me feel like I have lost touch with the world, I am so thankful that God has totally blessed it and keeps providing opportunities for me to take pictures of people.

Eli is getting huge and I now understand what people mean when they say that "they grow up so fast". I love this age right now. He is learning so much and is such a sponge. His new big thing is opening and closing anything and everything that can be opened and closed. Smashed fingers have not taught him anything because it happens all the time and he still procedes to do so. I would have never thought that I would have a hard time keeping up with the speed of an 8 month old! This obsession with doors and drawers did lead to some cute pics though...

Eli's 6 months old!

Ok, so two months later.... well, he's six months old now and a the cutest chunk you have ever seen. Who knew that a potbelly, cellulite, and eight rolls on each leg would be so stinkin' adorable! I just want to eat him up most of the time. He is so happy most of the time and his smile just absolutely melts me.

Life has really changed the past few days... He's now mobile. It is so weird how they just figure out crawling one day and the life of just sitting them down on a blanket for a while while you do things is officially over. For a few days he would just stand on all fours like an animal... again, another little thing that just makes you think they are so cute.

New photography website and 25% off!

So I am now doing the photography thing for real and bperry.com should be up within the next two weeks! To celebrate this step in my business, the first five people to book a session will get their choice 25% off of the package of their choice or no sitting fee. You can email me at bperryphoto@aol.com or call me at 479-283-8727 to set up a session.

One thing I am really excited about is the Party Package I am offering. Whatever kind of party you are having, I would love to photograph it for you. I know that moms are never in any of the pictures of their kids' birthday parties because they are always running around keeping all the kids in line, cutting the cake and trying to take pictures. So, if you would like great pictures of your birthday, graduation, anniversary, or any other type of party you are having, contact me. I will come take pictures of prom day also! The price for the package includes 2 hours of photography time, editing, and either a spiral bound proof book or up to 100 5x5 proofs. Check out bperryphotography.blogspot.com for the package price.

Eli's first Christmas

I know it's been a while since Christmas, but whatever. It still happened. He won't remember it, but it happened. We were road warriors. NWA to Dallas to Baton Rouge, back to Dallas and finally home... all in seven days. Poor kid had a double ear infection and something called bronchilitis, but like I said, he won't remember it. That's when you feel like mom of the year when you think you kid MIGHT be sick and so you take him in and then they tell you that you need to be ready to go to the emergency room if a, b, or c happens. I think all mothers have had that experience. It PROBABLY wouldn't have ANYTHING to do with the time you took them in when you THOUGHT they were sick and they sent you home with a piece of paper with the title "How to Fight the Common Cold in Your Infant" along with giving you the "You don't need to bring him in for everything" speech. Nope, it probably didn't have anything to do with that.

So, like I said, the first place we stopped was Dallas to celebrate with the Perry's. It was great and Eli had such fun hanging out with his cousins, Taylor and Anna Kate. Not to mention Nana, Papa, Auntie Em, and Uncle Ryan.

Next, we went to Baton Rouge to see my family. We go every other year to visit my family and it is always fun.

My cousin Carrie and I used to wear really big bows and dress alike. Well, we thought it was time to bring it back. You know, for ol' times' sake.
