It’s always a nice surprise to find out I’ve been nominated for the 2017 South Florida Parenting Magazine‘s Kids Crown Award for Best Family Photography. It’s an honor and I’m truly grateful.
One of the many options I offer portrait clients is the 8×8 Session Album. 30 of your favorite images from your custom portrait session carefully printed, custom bound and finished by hand in the style of traditional bookmakers. With true silver halide printing on Fuji portrait grade paper to guarantee the best color reproduction and delivery of the finest details, the flush mount design and mounted pages create stability and durability. The Session Album is truly an heirloom.
I love how the family recreated a classic family photo from years past for their cover photo.
Mother’s Day is just around the corner…..hint hint
On Saturday, February 6 we held our second “I EXTRA Love you” portrait session. In collaboration with my good friend Daniela Roeder, over 50 amazing individuals with Down Syndrome came to the studio to be photographed. The portraits will be on display during downtown Hollywood’s ArtWalk on Saturday March 19, from 7-10pm at Gallery 2014 in celebration of World Down Syndrome Day. It’s a family friendly event. You can see highlights from last year’s “I EXTRA Love You” portrait exhibit here. Thank you Daniela for these amazing behind the scenes images.
Spring is almost here and it’s a great time to schedule your custom portrait session at the studio. We have lots of new backdrops and fun chairs.
This Monday, February 29 from 10-1, we’re hosting an open house at the studio and shopping event. Check out the spring release from Matilda Jane Clothing (one of my all time faves), Beautycounter (safe and clean cosmetics and skin care), and Do-Terra Essential Oils. For more information on Monday’s event please go to our event page on Facebook. If you’re in the neighborhood I’d love to see you.
Didn’t we just put the Christmas Tree away, and now I’m here already talking “Valentines”?!? Well, it’s a reality. It’s everywhere, and Courtney Studios is jumping on the bandwagon. Custom Valentine Cards are perfect for your adorable, fashion forward kiddo.
Custom Valentine Cards are being offered at 50% off studio price when ordered between now and January 31.
One of my major tips I give new clients, especially moms prior to their custom portrait session is, “Get your makeup done.” I’m all about creating a positive portrait experience and it begins before you even walk through the studio doors. When mama feels confident at the start of her portrait session the final product is all that much more fabulous. So with that in mind, I am excited to announce that Courtney Studios now has an official makeup line available in the studio. Whether you want to just touch up your lips or start a complete skin care regimen.
To say I’m in love with this line of skin care and cosmetics would be an understatement. Not only is it beautiful and chic in it’s packaging, but it’s high performance and above all else it’s SAFE!!!
“What does SAFE mean?” you might ask.
Well…….
Beautycounter has built a list of 1,500 ingredients they will never use in any of their products. (see just a sampling below) They have a bold vision devoted to progress, truth, safety and health. And I’m pretty excited about it.
The Beautycounter skincare and makeup collections are available at the studio. I’d love for you to stop by and take a look. I guarantee you’ll love it as much as I do.
We had such fun with these cuties in the studio for their custom portrait session. Lots of playing, running, and loving went on and I was super happy to be a part of it.
Holiday sessions are in full swing. There are still appointments available.
