Gift Cards Available | Houston Family Photographer

Christie Lacy Photography — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 15:18:54 +0000

Are you running around, browsing around, trying to think of the perfect gift for your loved one? I have it, the perfect thing. A CLP gift card. Gift cards for a family photography session are the perfect thing to gift your husband, wife, friend, sister, cousin, long lost kid who used to live down the street from you (I kid, I kid). But seriously, what could be better than gifting something so wonderful as a photography session that’s all about them?

Gift cards are available in amounts starting at $200 (the classic session creative fee) up to where ever your pocketbook will allow.

If you’re having a difficult time thinking of that perfect gift, this just may be it!

And now, through 12-15-11, on any gift card you purchase, I’ll add half that amount for an extra credit (i.e: Purchase a $200 gift, I’ll credit it with $300, Purchase a $400 gift, I’ll credit it with $600, you get the picture?).

Just to break it down, here’s an example of a few denominations you can choose!

Buy a $200 gift card, receive an additional $100 credit making it $300
Buy a $300 gift card, receive an additional $150 credit making it $450
Buy a $400 gift card, receive an additional $200 credit making it $600
Buy a $500 gift card, receive an additional $250 credit making it $750
Buy a $600 gift card, receive an additional $300 credit making it $900
Buy a $800 gift card, receive an additional $400 credit making it $1200
Buy a $1000 gift card, receive an additional $500 credit making it $1500

But hurry, this offer will be over as soon as the clock ticks over to December 16th!

Christie Lacy Photography — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 10:50:19 +0000

I love new ideas. I love curling babies up and snapping away. I love the art that babies are: simple, breathtaking, pure. And right now, I’d love to broaden my portfolio, offering new poses, new settings and new opportunities to create art with your babies.

If you are pregnant and are due any time in the next 3 months, or know someone who is, this post is for you! The model call is a perfect way to have your brand new baby’s photograph captured at such an important time in their brand new lives.

I am currently looking for brand new babies to photograph. Appointments are limited!

These model call sessions will:

• Have a complimentary creative fee (however, prints and products may be purchased at discounted rates).

• Be goaled towards capturing a single image / pose (but if time and patience permits, additional poses and images may be attempted).

• Be held at either your home or at an outdoor location of Christie’s preference.

The current model calls are for:

• Any newborn babies that are 10 days or younger.

• Newborn twins and triplets, either one week of age or within one week of age of coming home from the nicu (preferably with minimal time spent in the nicu).

back in the saddle | cypress family photographer

Christie Lacy Photography — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 11:31:37 +0000

Whew. What a year. Almost a year ago, I decided to take a break from my busy business. I needed to pull back and be certain of where I felt God leading me. In all honesty, I had this naive idea that there would be this clear and loud direction in which I was to go. This was not the case. In fact, there was nothing clear about those first few months of being “off”.

The best thing for me, however, was that I was patient. This is a feat in itself because I am not the most patient person. But I committed to taking time off to enjoy and rest and live. I’ve learned about who I am, what I need in my life, how to be a better wife/mom/person. I have learned my limits and boundaries and I’ve learned that creating is a passion. But more than that, capturing love and connection between people is such a part of who I am, what inspires me and what helps me to see God’s love. I’ve said, this whole year, that I want to glorify God in this. What I’ve learned is that capturing your love and your relationship is an act of worship for me, and without it I’m just seeking and searching. Over and over in the last few months you, my friends and clients, have reiterated this to me in one conversation after another. Perhaps, this is what I was meant to do all along…

And so here I am, ready to move and capture more. Ready to help lead you into making picture perfect memories that truly reflect the parts of your family and your life that you want to remember and freeze. I’m more focused and determined, excited and inspired than ever before!

To celebrate my return, I’m giving away a holiday mini session to one lucky family! Here’s how you can enter to win!

Christmas 2011 Photography Mini Session Specials

Christie Lacy Photography — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 14:39:59 +0000

It’s time to start thinking about your Christmas photos! It will be here before you know! Take a look at the info below for some amazing opportunities to have your photos updated! I’ve just announced November sessions due to much demand!

These Petite Sessions are such a great way to share and gift your family photos. I’m offering only digital images so that you can print as many as you like, share as many as you like, and showcase as many as you like in your homes. Add to that, I’m offering a digital card, complete with printer recommendations. You’ll have 5 designs to choose from and they are personalized with the photos of your choice (these designs will be shown soon, but the card below is a sneak peek!).

And just to add a bit of a perk, if you purchase your session by October 1st, I’ll take $50 off the price. Taking advantage of that saves you about $900 off the list price! Amazing savings!

Studio Updates | Cypress and Houston Christmas Photographers

Christie Lacy Photography — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 21:28:51 +0000

I was talking with my husband this week and we couldn’t believe that the 8th month of the year is almost over. Soon enough we’ll be planning holiday meals and it will be winter break. I don’t remember time passing quite so fast when I was a child.

___________________________________________________

Something else that’s hard to believe is that there are only 2 weekend dates and 7 weekday session dates available for family or children sessions for the remainder of the year. I will not be photographing any holiday, family or children’s sessions after the first week of November. I know you’re probably thinking that there’s still a month and a half til Christmas, but with the time it takes to process your sessions and then the turn-around time from the lab, the latest I can enter orders and get them back to you in time for mailing to your friends and family is November 15th. This is the absolute deadline to have your order in so that you will receive it in time for gift giving and card sending!

___________________________________________________

While there are only a few full creative sessions left, I do have plenty of Christmas Mini Sessions available. November is full, but October has about 5 more left and September hasn’t had one booking yet. These mini sessions are designed for the budget-conscious client who maybe has already had a session this year and just needs an updated image for card sending or gift giving. They are great sessions for quick updates of the kids, too. A couple questions have been asked, so here are a few more tidbits about the sessions:

The sessions are not themed (meaning: Santa is not coming to your shoot location to have the kids sit on his lap, nor will there be any Christmas trees hanging around). While I love incorporating different things that your families love, mini sessions don’t really allow the time. Plus, this will allow you to hang your photos in your home year round.

The sessions are on location and not done in any studio. Take a look at the locations that are on my blog and the mini’s will likely be held in some place similiar!

They are limited to the dates listed on the information page and are not available to be scheduled for any other dates.

The sessions are valued at $500 or more each session package.

You can view more information and schedule a session by clicking here!

___________________________________________________

If you’re a fan on my facebook fan page (like page?), then you’ve probably seen that I introduced my 2010 Christmas Card collection. I’m so excited to offer these beautifully designed cards to you this year. All the cards are sized 5×7 and are flat cards (printed on both sides) printed on the highest quality cardstock available. All cards come with envelopes for your card sending convenience.

Now through September 5th, when you book any full Creative session, you’ll receive 48 custom cards in the design of your choice!

Here’s a sample of this years card collection, to view them all, click the image to be directed to the card gallery!
