I am excited to announce the details of my trip to Houston, October 9th & 10th, for my weekend of shooting holiday photos. I was born and raised in Houston and any chance I get to go back and visit is always so much fun! I have many friends and family members in the Houston area that have been HUGE supporters of my photography business and I always knew I wanted to plan a weekend to go back home and do some shooting there. It may seem too early to even think about the holidays, but NOW really is the time to start planning. The two days of shooting will take place at the beautifully wooded Houston Arboretum & Nature Center. We will be offering 1/2 hour mini sessions from 9am-4pm. All sessions may include up to 5 people, there is a fee of $15 per each additional person. If you are a member of the Houston Arboretum you will receive a 5% discount when booking your session. There are a limited number of sessions available, don’t wait to sign up because you won’t want to miss out on this fun event!!! Click here to book your session!!!
We are offering 3 packages and all sessions must be paid in full at the time of booking. Approximately 10-14 days from your session date you will be notified of your sneak peek that will be up here on my blog. On or before November 7th, 2010, we will email you with the details on how to view your images from your session in a private online image gallery. Each Gallery will include up to 15 fully edited images for you to choose from. Once you are notified that your online image gallery is up for your viewing, you will have one week to place your order for your prints, holiday cards and digital images. All prints, holiday cards and digital image orders will be shipped to your address provided and you should expect to receive them on or before December 5th, 2010. For packages including holiday cards, you will also be given access to an online gallery where you can choose from a wide variety of flat two sided cards. All cards are press printed with a standard semi-gloss finish and are custom designed for your order. Should you wish to purchase additional prints, holiday cards, digital images or other specialty items, please see the A La Carte Pricing List on our website for pricing information at www.julierollinsphotography.com. Any specialty items purchased such as canvases, image boxes and albums etc.. typically arrive 4-6 weeks after the order has been placed. These items will incur additional charges for shipping.
On a personal note, Julie Rollins Photography will personally donate 10% of your package fee to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in honor of Tyson Mailloux, an 11yr old who is currently battling leukemia. I have never met Tyson, but I do know his dad from high school. I came across Tyson’s story via Facebook. If you have ever heard of someone talking about the power of Facebook, believe it. Tyson’s dad Jaisson is a friend of mine on Facebook and early last month I saw a post where he mentioned his 11yr old son had just been diagnosed with Leukemia. My initial reactions were shock and sadness. From that point on I kept checking Jaisson’s page on a regular basis to get the updates of his sweet boy and their fight against Leukemia. Every time I would read an update on Tyson I was always wondering what I could do to help their family and to raise awareness of what Tyson is going through. Once I made my decision to make this trip to Houston I instantly knew that I wanted to donate a portion of the session fees to a charitable organization in honor of Tyson and others that are currently fighting the battle against Leukemia. There are two sites you can visit that document Tyson’s war against Leukemia. The first site, St. Baldricks Foundation, was created by Tyson’s dad and has many photos documenting their journey. The second site, CaringBridge.org, is Tyson’s own personal journal of what he is going through. To everyone who will be booking a session, I thank you so much for being apart of this donation. Your support means so much to Tyson and his family during their fight.
