I am receiving several emails a day wondeirng when the pumpkin patch session will take place in Ruston at the Townsend House this year, so here it is!

Jamie and I will both be taking sessions the afternoon of Tuesday October, 5th (2:30am-6:30pm) and the morning of Wednesday, October the 6th (8am-1pm). This means that we are ONLY doing 40 pumpkin patch sessions between the two of us and last year I alone did over 60!

Here’s the details:

You can come with your child, in their Halloween costume or in regular clothes (some of you managed to change your child and do both and stay within your 25 minute session time spot!). Your session time is 25 minutes long (which was plenty for the small area we worked in last year, we weren’t rushed at all!), and we schedule them every 30 minutes (so make sure you are on time!)

The session fee is $99 and can include just your child (or children, sibling groups welcome) or you and your child/children and includes 15 digital proofs in an online gallery and on Facebook.

Book your session by September 15th and receive a complimentary 8X10 Unique Motifs limited edition autumn photo mat with a 4X6 opening ($30 value), and 15 hi resolution digital images for download ($375 value) with a limited personal use copyright release to make your own prints, cards, photo books and more!

To book a session you must fill out the contact form bu clicking the contact button above. Please include your preferred day and time (spaces are first come, first serve) and we will email you your actual date and time. If the time works for you then we will book your time for one week. You will have that time to mail a check for the session in order to have your photo mat ready on the day of and secure your spot. If we don’t receive your check we will notify you and then give someone on the waiting list your time slot. There have already been more inquires than spots so reserve yours today!

Here are some images from last year! I has so much fun and so did all the kids!

PLEASE remember to purchase a pumpkin at the pumpkin patch as it benefits DART. If you do not plan to purchase a pumpkin please DO NOT book a session. Thanks!

This is the 11X14 version of the photo mat with three openings. You will receive the 8X10 version with one opening. To purchase extra copies for the 8X10 for $30 or an 11X14 mat for $50 please email us in advance so they will be ready to take home with you on your shoot date.

Dear Autumn,

This is a tribute to you because lately I have realized that you are not a baby anymore, even though you will always be my baby, you are a little girl. You have a beautiful and unique personality that has shown me parts of our God that I might have never seen if He hadn’t given me you.

In celebration of some of your new milestones, skills and “big girl” ways of life, your big brother and I work on this little photoshoot with you so that we can all remember this time in your life and all the little sweet, precious and fun things you do, so here they are! These are the things we want to remember always about you and what you do.

Love,

Momma

The way you love to dance.

The way you hide so we can see you.

The way you give kisses all the time.

How you are such a free spirit and how that usually means you aren’t very modest

How you wave at people you have never met.

The way you hug and kisses all your bears and baby dolls.

The prissy little thing you do with your arms crossed.

How you like to point out your facial features.

How sweet you look when you are serious.

And how you light up the room when you laugh.

How you make sweet eyes.

How you explore the world.

The way you look at everything with fresh eyes of wonder.

The way you throw your self to the floor when you get mad.

The way you point to yourself and say “O-NOM”

The way you love to wear all those pretty things even though you are already so beautiful.

The sassy little way you hold yourself.

The way you are. We love you.

Josiah was such a great little assistant, hold down the light stand in the wind, and carry equipment! Oh and climbing on my back.

I just LOVE these girls! I have been photographing Briley for almost a year now and I am always happy to see her and now her sweet baby sister too! They are both so wonderful to be around and easy to photograph! This time our shoot was around Easter so I bought along a furry friend for some pictures! The girls loved him!

This is Annabelle’s scrunchy face and she makes it a LOT! It is way too adorable!

Jamie took this one, isn’t she great!? Porter was along for this shoot too, he and the bunny were hanging out while Jamie and I were photographing the girl.

Kisses?
