Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Charity Event
We recently setup on location at the Ryan Manor in Dallas to photograph the guests at the HOBY Texas North annual fundraiser. Each couple took a quick portrait and the proceeds were donated to the charity. We printed on site and framed 8x10 prints for each guest to take away with them. We are very happy with the results of the event, and the charity raised a lot of money. Here are a couple of the portraits from the evening.

Karalynn Turns One - Happy Birthday Portraits
Happy first birthday to Karalynn. To celebrate her big day, her mom brought her to the studio for cake. Before she made a mess with her cake, Shana photographed her in our outdoor studio. Then she came in for the big celebration. Just look how happy she is to get her hands on the icing. If you like these, you should see the 15 others that go with them! HILARIOUS !
Karalynn is now our latest member of the Watch Me Grow Annual Plan. She'll get discounts on her sessions, special pricing, and free prints at all of our seasonal mini-sessions. If you have a child between the ages of zero and ten, come in and let us tell you about our Watch Me Grow Program. Its a great way to save money on our portraits, and get the same high quality products you deserve.

Waxahachie High School Senior Portraits: Hannah
Hannah is a volleyball star at Waxahachie High School. She drives a killer truck and listens to cool Texas bands. We had a good time working together on her Senior portraits. Here are a few of my favorites. We still have a few spots open for last minute seniors. If you need wallets for grad announcements, you need to have your portraits completed by May 15th to avoid any rush fees.

German Shorthaired Pointer Dog Portraits: Cabela
We've "unleashed" a new website at Ivey Photography, one designed exclusively for our dog loving clients. Meet Cabela, a Champion German Shorthaired Pointer from Red Oak. Her mom, Jennie, brought her in this weekend for a session and we got some fantastic portraits of this very special dog. Cabela plays flyball, is a champion field dog, and has dozens of confirmation titles to her credit. Jennie and Cabela were invited to a very exclusive show and needed new portraits for Cabela's catalog advertisement at the show. Thanks for coming in. Here are a few of my favorites from the session. If you want to see more dogs, please visit www.iveystudio.com/#/unleashed/ to learn about our portraits and pricing.

Policy Changes, Pricing, Minimum Orders: Effective May 1st
Effective May 1st, we will have some changes to our pricing policies. Until then, our $25 reservation fee and minimum order policies are in effect. On May 1st, our pricing structure will change.
Pricing
For our standard family, children's, maternity and engagement sessions, we no longer have "packages". We experimented with packages, or Collections for about a year, and decided that we are not a "print and package" studio. We create custom products for your home. Sometimes you can call it a "package", but most of the time, its just what you want. We do offer bonus incentives and discounts for larger orders, but you can expect custom creations and products designed for YOU, not Packages designed to sell you "stuff you don't need". We've also lowered some prices on Wall Portraits and Custom Albums. As always, print prices start at about $50.
Session Fees
Family, Engagement, or Maternity Photography: Our new Session Fee is $75 for weekday appointments and $100 for weekend appointments. There is no minimum order and we'll work with you to design products that are best for your home. Print prices begin at around $50, with sizes available up to 70x100 inches.
Children and Baby Photography: Our Session Fee is $75 on the weekdays and $100 on the weekends. There are no minimum orders, so buy what you like. We do have minimum order requirements for our seasonal and discount programs. Please ask for details on those special sessions.
Senior Photography: Effective for the Class of 2011 Sessions, we will offer three session types. The Mini, The Half, and The Full Session. Our mini sessions require an $195 minimum order. Our Half Session requires a $300 minimum order, and our Full Sessions require a $500 minimum order. What you ultimately spend depends on the length of your session, the number of outfits, and the products you choose. Call us for a complete consultation and we can give you a complete price guide. The minimum orders for Seniors are not designed to tell you how much to spend, rather to direct you into a session that is appropriate for you and your budget. You can spend ANY amount, no matter the length of the session, but you must spend more for the longer more elaborate sessions.
Consultation
For each session, we will now ask that you give us a few minutes of your time PRIOR to the session so that we may consult with you in detail about your session, the products you may want, and the spaces we may fill with your images. We can conduct the consultation in your home, here in the studio, or by phone. It just takes a minute of your time, but goes a LONG way toward helping us deliver our very best work to you.
We never enjoy discussing business on our site, but we feel it is important to announce these changes. Our new pricing structure allows us to be more of a custom art studio, rather than a "print and package" studio. We design custom products for your home using priceless images we create. Sometimes that costs a little. Other times that costs more. Our minimum order policy was hampering us and causing confusion for some clients. With every rule, there is the exception. Our Senior Sessions, Watch Me Grow Sessions, and Seasonal Mini Sessions will still carry appropriate minimum order requirements.
We appreciate all of the business and look forward to capturing memories for you very soon.
