Gift Ideas - DVD to Music

I want to start this week's BLOG with a huge CONGRATULATIONS! Happy Anniversary to my mom and dad, Greg & RoseAnn. Today, they celebrate 33 Years of marriage! They are truly a wonderful example of what marriage is, and I thank them so much for showing all of us over the years that marriage takes love, patience, kindness and God, and that it is so worth it.

Okay, back to business, It's DECEMBER!!! There are only 20 more days to get your Christmas shopping done. So to help you out, our newest gift idea to share is a DVD to Music. The way this works is, we take your images and create a beautiful show set to music. You collect the images that you want included and we will edit and do all the necessary things to make sure that the finished product is fit for your loved one. It is a wonderful way to show someone how special they are to you.

This is not something I can really tell you about, you just need to watch:

Until next time, have a wonderful weekend, and enjoy the snow, if you have it!

Gift Ideas - Portrait Session


If you've looked at the calendar today, you will probably have noticed that this weekend will mark the half-way point of November! Where has the time gone? I don't know about you, but this entire year has passed so quickly for me, and now it's time to get ready for Christmas, and we have not even celebrated Thanksgiving yet.

As the holidays approach, we are trying our best to get our homes in order for the feast, and space made for the guests who will be staying with us. Wait....look at that again, "guests," family who have made arrangements to be with us for the holidays. These are likely some of the most important people in your life. They are probably parents or grandparents, who are coming to spend time with us, and have probably come from somewhere far. This means that we probably don't get to see them as often as we like, and vice versa.

At this point, you are possibly wondering where I'm going with this, and that is, this is the PERFECT opportunity to take a large family portrait with them. This is not only a portrait, an image, that they will treasure forever, but the memory of the session and the time spent together.

Our sessions are relaxed and laid back. There is always music and laughter. And in the end, you have beautiful portraits that will remind you of that one moment in time when you were all together and how special it was for the person you gave it to. We always hear the comments during the proofing sessions that "look at how silly they were being," or "that's when Paige said..." But no matter what, it is a time where everyone took time from their lives to be together and do something special for someone they love and care about.

When you are ready to set up your session, give us a call and we are happy to schedule that. If you know someone else who needs a session, please pass this on to them as well. We always appreciate the referrals and know that you, our clients and friends, are our biggest advertisement and we wouldn't be us without you. So thank you!

God Bless,
Tonya

Captivating Impressions - Gift Ideas

We all know that Christmas is coming fast. Before you know it, "Black Friday" is here! We want to put as much thought into our gifts for other as we possibly can, but sometimes, work, kids and life get into the mix and we are left scrambling at the last minute. So, we decided to make things a little easier on you! Here are some fabulous gift ideas that you can do that will make everyone happy!

  1. Portrait Session. It's a great way to give someone that gift that they always want, by not everyone is in the same place at the same time. But somehow, during the holidays, we gather together and there you have it, a great photo op!
  2. Photo Jewelry. This one is a favorite for sure! What a wonderful gift to give to mom, grandma or some other special person. You photos, whether they are taken by us or are your own personal favorites, are placed in a beautiful piece of jewelry they will never want to take off and will love to show to everyone.
  3. Custom Coffee Table Books. These books are a wonderful collection of images set in a 20-page album. Whether it is images taken from your session with us, or images that you have that you want placed in a book (additional charges apply) , it is great way to showcase your family and preserve them in a book to show all who enter your home.
  4. Photo Ornament. A lovely piece to hang on your Christmas tree this year. Perhaps it is Baby's First Christmas, or the new couple's First Anniversary or even to commemorate someone who has passed on, a photo ornament will be one you look forward to placing on your tree every year to remember someone special!
  5. DVD to Music. Images are set to Royalty-free music and place on a DVD. It will tug at your heart and make you laugh in the same sitting. It's a great gift to share with someone you love!
  6. Gallery Wrap. Call Captivating Impressions for your portrait session. Once you view the images, you can select a ready-to-hang Gallery Wrap. There are many sizes to choose from and make a wonderful art piece to hang on your wall.

Over the next several weeks, we will take some time to showcase each of the above suggestions and give you more information about what we have to offer. Call us to set up your appointment at 281.337.2697 or email info@captivatingimpressions.com

Happy Shopping!!
