The cut off for holiday orders is this Friday, December 18 at noon. Please be sure to get your orders in by noon if you want them before Christmas!

Happy Holidays!

I am completely booked for sessions that will yield prints and products prior to the holidays.

I have a few openings for newborn sessions left for the year and I have very limited family reunion type sessions available the week of Christmas.  So please call or email me soon to set up your session.

I am already booking sessions in 2010 so it’s not too early to start thinking about your next portrait session!

Happy Holidays!

Joy is one of my favorite words and emotions.  My daughter’s endless laughter fills me with joy.  The love I share with my husband is inexplicably joyful.  The love I have for my art makes me giddy with joy.  Joy is contagious and something I want and need to share.

It’s the holiday season, a time for thanksgiving and for giving unto others.  To celebrate this awesome time of year I’ve joined up with other photographers in a campaign of giving called Giving Is Awesome.  This holiday season I’m giving away a complimentary custom portrait session as well as a print credit to ensure that the winning family can enjoy their art for years to come.  That’s not all…I’m giving the nominating family a complimentary portrait session as well!

It’s time for YOU to send in your nominations.  Nominate a friend or a family, someone who is facing hard times in their life, someone who gives selflessly to others and they expect nothing in return, some who deserves the gift of custom photography this holiday season.  Tell me their story, what they’re experiencing, and why they deserve this gift.

There are a few rules:

* You cannot nominate yourself and the person/family you nominate must sincerely be incapable of retaining my services.

* The nominee must reside within the Houston area or be willing to travel to the Houston area for their session.

* Please email their full story as well as contact information for your nominee as well as yourself to: info@kdloftisphotography.com

* Anyone can participate, you do not need to be a past client of mine to make a nomination.

* The session must take place between January 1, 2010 and June 1, 2010.

All entries must be received by midnight on December 23.

The winning entry will NOT be shared on my site, but I retain the right to share parts of the winner’s story.  I will review all of the entries and select the winning family (with the help of my own family) on Christmas Day. I have been asked, no, the winning family does NOT need to know who nominated them unless you’re ok with it.

The announcement of the winner will come the evening of Christmas Day!

My sincere thanks to all for opening your hearts in the spirit of giving this holiday season and for spreading the JOY!

Happy Holidays to you and yours!

I wanted to let everyone know that I only have one weekend session and two week day sessions remaining for November.

I also have a handful of sessions available in early December that are early enough to allow for the delivery of prints and products prior to the holidays.

If you’re interested in booking a session with me please contact me soon to set it up!

I am now offering an early bird special for all new galleries (effective 10/15).  The early bird special will give you 10% off of your entire order if you order within 72 hours of receiving access to your gallery.

The best part…your friends and family can also take advantage of this fantastic discount! Woo hoo!

I hate blogging without an image so here’s one from this afternoon of my munchkin…(for the photographers out there, it’s a simple curves adjustment and a b&w conversion…nope, didn’t touch her eyes).
