Introducing "Share-A-Shoot"

In this economic down-turn, we here at Blindvisions Studio have come up with a way to allow you awesome photography at a manageable price. How can we do this you might ask? It's simple, with our new Share-A-Shoot option you can now invite others to share the cost of our Lifestyle Portrait Session.

Alright, let me break it down for ya'. Say you really want a portrait session from us, but the $200 price tag is causing serious budget break and loss of hair. Well with Share-A-Shoot, get one of your friends to go in on it with you. That's now only $100, half the price. Plus, you could even get three of your friends making the price a mere $50 for each family. Now how could you go wrong with that.

We're sure some questions are popping up in your head and we will try and answer some of them right now. First off, let's go over what a Lifestyle Portrait Session includes: 2-3 hours of session time, 3 outfit changes, Online gallery and a DVD of high-resolution images. Now time to translate that into the Share-A-Shoot option. The session time will remain the same and be split among the number of clients for that session. So if there are three clients, each client will receive approximately one hour of the session. You are still welcome to bring additional outfits, but remember that will eat up more time. There will only be one online gallery for the entire session. So all clients will be included. And now for the all important DVD. The session only includes one DVD of all the clients and each client will have 25 edited high-resolution images for the disc and online gallery. Copies of the DVD may be purchased for and additional $15. We believe that takes care of the stipulations and answers some questions. If you have further questions, feel free to contact us.

We feel this is a great way to get those pesky family photos you've been putting off and get them outta the way. Not to mention, you now have family photos for Christmas Cards that you can order through us. Also, what a great way to involve extended family and get everyone into a photo. Now these session do not have to be strictly family, they can be just the kids, you and your siblings, or just you and your closest friends. It's whatever you feel is important to you.

So go on and look through your Facebook friends list and start chattin' the Share-A-Shoot up to see who's interested. I bet you'd be surprised. And as always from Blindvisions Studio, thanks for reading.

It's Toddler Time (Model Contest for 2-4 years old)

We had had such an awesome turn-out for the May contest we thought we would try it again. However, this time will be for the toddlers, ages 2-4 years, and many of the same rules will apply with some exceptions.

First off, we need to make things perfectly clear when it comes to voting. YES, you will have to either already be a fan or become one in order to vote. This is Facebook's thing not ours. Personally we feel that is insane, but we have no control over that. So if you want to become a fan just to vote and remove yourself later that's fine, we understand and will not hold that against you, much.

Now with that said, we are also changing the way you vote. Instead of leaving a comment for your vote, all you need to do is click the LIKE link under the toddler you are voting for. This will make the voting easier and allow everyone to vote only once without any confusion, since you can only LIKE something once. You can still comment all you want, it just won't count as a vote.

Finally, let's get those cute photos of your toddlers up on our fan page wall and let the voting begin! Please do not submit professional photos of your kids. We will know and will disqualify you from the contest. If the photo was taken by some one other than yourself, that's fine. Also please read all the rules/terms and conditions carefully, we don't want to disqualify anyone. This is simply meant to be a fun contest for all to enjoy.

We would like to thank all who participated in last month's contest making it a great success and wish those who enter this months GOOD LUCK!!

Time for the boring, yet important, Terms and Conditions: Contest only applies to those fans that reside in the Greater KC Metro area. Contest will end on Midnight CST, June 30, 2010.
