I got a little irritated myself when I saw that the Valentine decorations hit the shelf at Target already.

For portraits it’s a little different though, you schedule your appointment, complete the session,  order your favorites and wait for the prints to arrive.  It’s a process and it take a few weeks.

So that being said don’t miss out on this opportunity for a fun Mini Valentine session January 18-20. The session fee is only $29 and you will receive a 5×7 print and a web sharing file (same pose) of your little Valentine.

We have the backdrops but are asking you to get creative with your valentine prop ideas, a favorite for boys is a lipstick kiss (moms of course) on the cheek with a cute red tie and hat, girls look cute with a valentine bear, a red dress or a a sign with a creative Valentine saying on it like be mine or I love you, I can go on and on but I’m sure you get the idea.

We will post your child’s Valentine portrait on our facebook business page and whoever receives the most “likes” will win 50 custom Valentines cards.

We are  excited to announce that we will be hosting a Matilda Jane Trunk show at Dawn Schubert Photography during the annual Downtown event called Earlier than the Bird here in Livermore.

Here’s a few from our fun funky fashion session.

He had so much fun outside but I had to be quick and on my toes with this rough and tumble boy.

I know I always say this, but I really do love my job.

Here’s a few images that we captured that day.

Maybe dad would appreciate a new pair of socks…

Or how about a cute little garden gnome?

Or how about a beautiful custom designed photo collage of his favorite kiddo in the whole wide world…

Now add a frame to this collage and give dad the best Father’s Day gift ever!!

There’s no doubt he will proudly display this on his desk.

We started running a Fathers Day special last week when I noticed another photographer friend and mentor of mine James Hodgins  www.hodginsphotography.com from Sudbury Ontario was hosting this fabulous event and I thought it would be great to offer it to our community as well.  I love the framed collage idea James, thanks.

Georgie~Our first born son.  He is a wonderful joy in our lives.  He has a heart of gold.  He is witty and very artistic.  We are proud of him for buckling down and taking his college education serious.  It’s fun to listen to him talk about his future and his possible career choices.  I know he secretly enjoys being showered with hugs and kisses every time he comes home from college.  We love you buddy.

Christopher~ Our second born son.  Chris is our teddy bear.  He has so much love to share and always has a smile on his face.  Chris is a very confident young man. He is an amazing guitarist and has recently been writing music and lyrics. We love listening to him sing and play.  Chris is witty just like his daddy he is artistic too.  Not a day goes by where he doesn’t express his love for his family.  We love you “Niffy Bo” (he’s gonna kill me for that)

Cameo~ Our baby girl.  She is definitely a daddy’s girl.  Cameo is very athletic and we always enjoy watching her play plays softball, basketball, and soccer.  Cameo loves animals and they always seem to gravitate to her.  She has a smile that will light up the room and a giggle will make you smile.  She is always willing to lend a hand where needed.  She melts our hearts, we love you baby girl!
