Hey all. I’m so excited to announce my first Holiday Mini-Sessions! Just in time to get those holiday cards made and sent out with a recent photo of your gorgeous family. =)
You have two times of day (morning and late afternoon), two weekends (October 23/24 and November 6/7) and two settings (urban and beach) to choose from, so there’s something for everyone! There are only a very limited number of sessions available, so please be sure to book as soon as possible to secure your session. Here’s the breakdown of the sessions:
- Saturday, October 23rd – Urban session in Olde Towne, Portsmouth – 8am, 8:30am, 9am, 9:30am for the morning sessions and 3pm, 3:30pm, 4pm, 4:30pm, 5pm for the late afternoon sessions
- Sunday, October 24th – Beach session in Norfolk or Virginia Beach (TBD…let me know if you have a preference!) – 4pm, 4:30pm, 5pm for the late afternoon sessions
- Saturday, November 6th – Urban session in Olde Towne, Portsmouth – 8am, 8:30am, 9am, 9:30am for the morning sessions and 3pm, 3:30pm, 4pm, 4:30pm, 5pm for the late afternoon sessions
- Sunday, November 7th – Beach session in Norfolk or Virginia Beach (TBD…let me know if you have a preference!) – 4pm, 4:30pm, 5pm for the late afternoon sessions
Each session includes 20 minutes of shooting time, 8+ proofs in a private, online gallery to choose from and either 24 custom holiday cards or 1 low-resolution image (printable up to 5×7) for making your own holiday card. Upgrade to your package to include 24 holiday cards AND 1-3 medium-resolution images (printable up to 8×10). Add-ons are also available, including additional holiday cards, beautiful pocket-sized accordion albums (perfect brag books for grandparents!), gift prints (8×10 and smaller) and gorgeous mounted prints, ready to frame or display on easels.
Many of you know that our family is adopting a little boy from Ethiopia. Our case has been submitted to court in Ethiopia and we’re just waiting to hear when our court date will be. We’re hoping for a December or January court date, so fingers crossed! We have to travel for court, so we’ll be meeting our little guy for the first time in just a matter of weeks! ALL of the profits from these sessions will go directly to our travel fund. Our travel costs will be substantial as both Stephen and I have to travel for the court trip and we’re hoping to bring Eliza with us for the visa/pick-up trip a few weeks after court. With round-trip airfare being $1200-1900 per person (depending on the time of year), it adds up VERY quickly!
To book your session, just go to http://leilawylie.bookmonline.com, select your preferred package, date and time. You’ll then be prompted for your contact info. After that’s all filled out, you can choose to pay your session fee online via PayPal (you do NOT need a PayPal account to pay via PayPal), you can mail a check or you can call me with your credit card number. Whatever works best for you!
Of course, full sessions are always available as well. If you’re thinking about a mini-session and think you’d like to go with a full session instead (1-2 hours of shooting), I’d be happy to offer you some special deals on holiday cards, accordion albums and medium-resolution images.
Please let me know if you have any questions at all. I’m here to help! I can’t wait to see y’all. =)
