VINTAGE BASEBALL
AUGUST (1 DAY)
Baseball is such a huge part of Americana! I grew up with a batting cage in my backyard. My dad was always the coach, and my first job was scorekeeping for Connie Mack. I’ve collected bats and mitts from the 1930’s and 40’s, cleats, an old catcher’s mask…etc., to give this set an authentic feel back to a more a simple time. Vintage uniforms are provided for boys and girls from about 3 years old – 10 years old. Upon your selection appointment (scheduled about one week after your session), these images will be turned into works of art as they are meticulously painted with light creating vintage masterpieces and storybooks set to custom poetry.
MAGICAL BUTTERFLY FAIRIES
JUNE OR JULY ( 1 DAY)
What little girl has not dreamed of being a magical fairy and being able to fly as she spreads fairy dust over the woodland animals?! We don’t have to worry about the weather being too hot or too cold…as I photograph your little fairy in the studio on a “green screen” after she chooses her magic wand and her fairy dress and head wreath. Upon your selection appointment (scheduled about one week after your session), these images will be turned into works of art as I add in little forest animals, place your fairy on a mushroom and sprinkle the whole portrait with magic! Portraits for the wall and storybooks can be created from your images. Fairy portraits are perfect for 3 – 7 year old girls while they still believe in MAGIC!! Fairy dresses, magic wands and head wreaths are provided.
