LOOKING FOR CHILDREN MODELS!

Hello everyone!  :)

I wanted to mention that I will be starting to update my images of my babies and children in October.  I have decided to strictly specialize in a specific style of baby and children photography and will need help building my new website galleries with images.  I will no longer be photographing families, pets, boudoir or senior portraits.  Strictly babies, children and weddings as I have really discovered this is where my passion is - I will even be launching this new photography as a seperate business and the Lindsey Van Roy Photography name will strictly be dedicated to wedding photography. As I have slowly stretched myself into all different areas of photography, I have found that my focus has gotten a bit lost.  Jack of all trades, master of none! lol  It's time for some change!  I would love to become known as a baby and child photographic expert!  :)  I have big ideas, awesome deals and a whole bunch in store for babies and children!

I am offering $20 session fees for anyone interested and anyone who would allow me to use their babies/children in my website/promotion portfolio.  Whether it be a baby or child to the age of 13 years old. 

I am going for a very urban/contemporary look and unique baby images and would love to discuss outfit ideas if you do decide to book.  These sessions will be in studio in Appleton and on location.   As a special thank you I will also be offering discounted packages for anyone involved.   If you are thinking about pictures or greeting cards for the holidays let me know...we will certainly work with you!  Take advantage of this deal because once this new website/ business launches it will be a few years before I have another model search special going on!

Sessions must be booked by Sept 27th  for session in the months of October & November

$20 must be paid in advance to hold session - 100$ proof book deposit required upon images being ready - you can either keep this proof book or return it and get your deposit back.

If you are booking more than one child add $15 per additional child (to be photographed individually)

If you are looking for group images of your children together please plan on $20 per child

Available weekdays and Sat Oct 3, 10, 31, Nov 7, 14, 21

Babies, Children, Kids  (newborn to 13 years)

You must be open to outfit ideas and do your best to provide an outfit as suggested for your baby or child.

If you are a previous wedding client...as usual...there is no session fee!

Call 920-277-3810 to book or email ltdvr78@aol.com

I am happy to forward a copy of the prints and packages I am offering for this model event.  Please just request it via email.

Please, please, please spread the word, this is an amazing value and I will come up with some amazing images for those who participate - I CANT WAIT...to launch my new business!

Also, have no fear - if you're an existing client and would still like my services for family, senior, pets, etc.  I am open to them, I am just not going to be promoting that line of photography for myself anymore.

Thank you!

Lindsey Van Roy

Tis the season...

for me to be so overwhelmed with work that I can hardly keep up!  :)  I've been spending countless nights up until 3 am and back to work at 7 and I still can't manage to get on top of all this post production!  I know...rough life Lindsey.  LOL  Those of  you who have children know how I feel though...I know you do!  We're torn between spending time with our babies and putting food on the table.  So many of us are either the sole supporter of our children or the second income.  I've found myself beating myself up for not having spent much time with my children lately.  I'm working to establish a new system!  :)  Somethings got to give here... no money is worth the guilt I feel.  They are only young once!  Having my baby, Sariannah, home with me all day while I work ads many challenges in itself...but I wouldn't change a thing.  heck...how many of us get to run laundry, make appointments, proof, gaa gaa goo goo over our baby all at once?   It's a blessing, a crazy one but I somehow manage.  So, I've decided to strictly confine my portrait sessions to Wed., Thurs, and Fri.  Its been terribly hard to find a babysitter for a session here and a session there...so I've finally gotten smart.  During the off-season for weddings, I will have Saturdays available as well.  My post production comes late in the evening...I basically am working night shift.  When the kids are in bed...I am burning the midnight oil.  If you ever can't sleep, think of me, or heck...fire me an email.  I'm up and at this computer from 8-3 almost every night.  It's worked so far!!!  More time with the kids and I've come to realize that as much as I LOVE to sleep, I get much more accomplished with about 5 hours and a 1/2 nap later in the day!  HAHAHA 

Those of you patiently waiting for your images...thank you!  I'm figuring this out after 7 years of business.  Ye, it's been seven.  I suppose some of us learn faster than others.  Things should be speeding up here real soon and than we will be announcing some major change in business once I'm caught up.  Good change, of course.  :)

Blessings to you all.  Drop me an email late in the evening or find me on facebook.  Yah...I keep it open and minimized at the bottom of my puter, gets kind of lonely late at night.  LOL

You all are the most wonderful clients in the world! 

Lucy turns ONE!

Back to school...

R u serious?  Time is flying by...where did the summer go?

UPDATE

Hey everyone!
As usual the summer has been EXTREMELY busy so far this year.  My little Sariannah, although an amazing angel, has of course been helping keep me busy!My other two are a great help but also manage to keep me running!!! LOL  :)  Sari is my least photographed child and I have been pawning her off to my photographer friends to keep up with images of her!!! LOLOL  :)  Sad but true.   I want to thank everyone for your prayers who prayed about my little health scare, all is well and GOD IS GOOD!

I have not been taking any new portrait clients, call me crazy but I simply can't right now.  :)  Sari and my other two are growing so fast and I have found myself blessed that this summer I can focus on them and my long-time portrait and wedding clients.  The weddings this year have been stunning and I'm looking forward to many more to come!  I will be announcing when I will be taking on NEW PORTRAIT  clients.  I am and will always be photographing weddings... so I greatly appreciate you sending couples my way.   I still can't thank you all enough for sending your friends and family to me.  I am blessed! 

I thought I would share a few images of Sari... I finally bought myself a snap and shoot because I simply don't have the energy to pull the big ole beast of a camera out every time I want to take a quick picture!  Here are some cute ones...

I am also posting one image of  us with Sari... taken by my dear friend Shana of Blackberry Kisses Photography  BlackBerryKissesPhotography .  This was an image I created in my mind when I was pregnant with Sari and Shana brought it to life beautifully!  This is a beautiful art piece for my home!  :)

In a bit of time I will be posting some wedding highlights, so stay tuned.  Notice I am not promising a date on that!  LOL  You're all the best!

The family of models :)

It was such a pleasure working with this family.  They had a wonderful farmette that was exciting and challenging to photograph at.  The wind was a little strong... and shade area was sparce but we sure pulled it off with some GREAT images.  All three of these children are models, our goal was comp card images.  Here are a few of my favorites from the session...
