Mark your calendar and send me an email ASAP… I am having a summer-mini-session on WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18th in the Frisco/Plano area.  It will be quick and easy and we’ll get a few shots to add to your walls!

Details:  White or Blue tile background with barnyard flooring (see pic of white example below)

3 child maximum… (you quad mommies can call me and we can talk about an alternative)

Would be awesome for a maternity session if you just want to capture that moment in time!

10-15 minutes, $100– includes an 8X10.  All other prints are a la carte!

4:30

4:45

5:00–booked

5:20–booked

5:40–booked

5:55–booked

6:15–booked

Email your 1st and 2nd choice to betsy@betsymariephotography.com.  I will confirm your spot via email and you can pay me via paypal (to same email).

FYI… I will be “on location” (which is another term for on vacation with a few photo sessions sprinkled in) from July 1st until August 9th.  Any orders placed during this timeframe will not be processed until the 9th!  Look for some awesome Midwestern pics of my kids and lots of others along the way!  Happy Summer… and goodbye to some of that Texas heat!

Here is an example of what the mini-session will look like… bright colors on your kids work best!  ENJOY!

Isn’t he cute?  Too bad he doesn’t file, package orders or return calls… just sits in the shade and watches me take pictures while playing games on my i-phone.  The best part is he “ASKED” me to take these pictures before my client showed up… which has never happened (and is any photographers’ dream!).  Enjoy… but don’t expect to be seeing his cute face at your next photo session– it was a one-time thing… and only out of pure necessity!  :)

Happy Friday!

This little rascal is one of the funniest kids I’ve ever been around… and one of the cutest too!!!  But we can’t ignore his gorgeous Mommy?   Such a beauty!  We had a blast… on another hot and humid day!  Same location as my last shoot… and I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of it since people seem to like the results I get there!  :)

Enjoy… and Happy 4th Birthday, Mr Ri-Ri!  :)

A client of mine sent me this poem that she wrote after she booked her most recent session with me.  How cute is that?  It’s so nice to be appreciated!!  Thanks, Amanda… but first, I’ll post a preview of a session I am editing for the blog later tonight (hopefully!)  There are too many good ones… so the next post will be LONG…

ENJOY:

A picture speaks a thousand words,

As the famous saying goes.

This statement is so very true,

As any client of Betsy knows.

The angle, the light, the background too,

All perfect with every shot.

She captures children at their best,

Even when it’s hot!

She snaps photos with such ease,

And the results will amaze!

Getting pictures taken with Betsy-

The latest DFW craze!!!!

For those of us who are not in town,

We share in this magic too.

While taking trips throughout the year,

She will set aside time for you.

Photo sessions fill up fast,

Because her work is so tremendous.

And the suckers she uses to bribe the kids-

Well they are just stupendous!

Take it from someone who knows,

Betsy’s work is the BOMB!
