Bellies to Babies 2012
Yesterday Sandy and I spent the entire day at our third annual Bellies to Babies Trade Show. This is the one show that I participate in every year because it is an amazing place to really talk and connect with both old and new clients. In fact, yesterday one of the babies that was displayed on my wall showed up with mom and dad. She is now walking!!! It was so much fun meeting new and expectant parents and sharing my love and passion for photography with them all.
Something that so many people found exciting was our Baby Steps Program. This is where we photograph babies at two of their greatest milestones in their first year. We photograph them at 6 months when they are sitting up, and then again at 12 months when they are standing up. It was so much fun showing everyone the final images of a Baby Steps series.
Due to the huge popularity of this program last year, we have decided to relaunch this special again this year. Parents booking a newborn session by November 15th will receive a complimentary 6 and 12 month session to add to their gorgeous newborn images, creating a stunning series of their baby's first year.
There were so many other changes that we've made this year including our new wall displays, image boxes, our adorable wave accordion albums (perfect for grandparent gifts) as well as our new credit system where each item is awarded a set number of credits. With this new system, there are no predetermined packages. You simply purchase credits or collections that allow you to design your very own custom package based on your needs.
I am so excited about all of these new changes and am looking forward to more excitement for the upcoming year. More to come soon...
Here is Sandy at our booth just before the show. This would be the last time you would see her alone, or so relaxed. From the minute the doors open we were both chatting non-stop. I'd love to show you some pictures of us after the show but neither of us had the energy to press the shutter!!
