A Note from Heather
I am hanging on tight
. . . the
Christmas Rush has begun! When Christmas rush first hit me,
it
was my third year in business and I didn't have anyone working for
me. I
was completely overwhelmed with all the work. My business has
grown so much each year that despite my hiring more people, I still
feel
overwhelmed. But it is good feeling - like when you get a
delicious chocolate dessert and all you want to do is dig in,
but it is just a bit
intimadating. So here I am licking my lips, excited
about all the wonderful things I get to create this season.
My sweet baby girl, Savannah, is
3 1/2 half
months now and is over 13 pounds and growing like a weed.
Here is an image from her 3-month shoot, wearing her Chicabee
dress. My 6-year-old, Gabriella has found that saying "biscuit"
makes
Savannah
smile. And that seems what we spend a lot of time doing - getting
Savannah to smile and coo. It is wonderful! I
wanted to
share a picture from Gabriella's fairy experience from our latest
Limited Edition Session: Fancy Fairies.
She is my
consult when it comes to all things fairy. She did a great
job
with her expertise! Oh and we loved the Fairy Sessions so much .
. . we added
another
Fairy day in December! So your little girls will get a chance to
experience
our fairy wonderland one more time. These are selling out
quickly, so better call soon if you are interested!
I was looking over the schedule and I have never seen it so jam-packed.
I normally run a special for bookings for the newsletter, but
since there is no room on the schedule I am going to run a special for
the people who already have a session booked. You can read
about it below. If you were thinking about booking a session
before Christmas - I would call right away! It looks like there
are
only about 10 spots left before Santa comes to town. And please
call right now
if you are wanting
a session in January or February. Those months are about half
full right now.
We have been working on next years Limited Edition themes - they
are going to be AWESOME!! We are so pumped about them.
We
will be letting you know what they are the week after Christmas, and
they're up-for-grabs the first week in January. We know that many
of
you wanted to get in to a lot of them, but they sell out almost as
fast as we announce them.
I am only doing one newsletter for this Fall since it is SO busy, but I
am going to be blogging more. So, stay tuned for some of my
favorite images and finds. :) I LOVE Fall and shooting with Fall
palates. I'm hoping I get to wear a jacket soon.
warmly,
Heather Bookout

Special Promotion for
everyone who already has a session booked between now and the end of
the year.
. .
We have heard from many of you that you would love to have Digital
Images from your session so you can load them on your phone, for
scrapbooking or digital picture frames. We are now offering FREE
digitial images with the top package. Normally you had to
purchase the top package to be able to purchase them at $500 - so this
is an awesome opportunity! This would
make a special gift for Grandparents - where you purchase a digitial
frame and load it with all your favorite images.
Make your images sing
with the Heather's BELLA FINISH . . .
This
is a great way to make any of your images more artistic and to create a
show-piece in your home. The Bella Finish has layers of texture
and graphics on it to make your image look even more beautiful.
A Bella Finish upgrade is free for all premium clients (on
enlargements 11x14 and up) and
$25 per image for Basic and Limited Editions.
Each finish is different and custom just for you. Here is
another example:
What to Wear?
New resource in our Studio . . . Chicabee Boutique . . .
We always get
the question about what to wear for sessions. We decided to
make it easier for you by opening our own little Boutique that carries brands we love and that
look great
in photographs. We have lots of accesories and a great
selection of cute clothes for your
kids. You can buy on the spot or custom order. If you are
looking for that perfect gift we would love
for you to stop and check it all out. Here
is a link to the online catalog.
And here is a link to a
slideshow of kids
wearing the clothes.
 
Accessorize your
Session with Amazing
Cupcakes from Gigi's
There is a new cupcake store in town called Gigi's Cupcakes. This
a great idea if you want to make a birthday more special at your photo
session. We save the cupcakes until the very end of the session
and then let your little one go-to-town it. You can check out
their website at: www.gigiscupcakesusa.com
Our New Line of Custom
Christmas Cards are available. . .
We have 12 new
designs this year to help share your love with your friends and family
this Holiday Season. They are sold in increments
of 25 for $75 and they are double sided 5x7s. All the cards
come with envelopes.
If you have had a session in this past year and want to order
cards using those images you may do so - as long as you purchased at
least the lowest package (or price equivelant) at your order
appointment. Just email
Emily and let her know which card design you like and all your details.
She will
take good care of you. Her email is: emily@bookoutstudio.com
A New Website for Studio B . .
.
Do you have a High Schooler in your
life that would love fashion-inspired Senior Portraits? Have them
check out our new Studio B site that showcases our awesome Senior Model
Reps. Watch Episode 1 of our very own Reality Show, RUNWAY
