"Christmas in July"

Hi, I'm considering a mini-session in Frame Park in Waukesha (I don't usually go out there without travel fees) on Sunday, July 18th.

Family Special: $125, includes proofing on CD. 30 minute sessions.

I'll do this if there is enough demand. Please contact me if you're interested.

Call 414-581-0700

or email is available via the web site or facebook page (under info- see tab at right for link).

Thank you,

Robyn Vining

Booking for October! (REALLY? Yes.)

Pardon me for even mentioning this as we beg for Spring's return and summer's arrival, but I have begun booking for October.

I currently have one mini-session scheduled for Sunday, October 31, in the afternoon. I have filled one of the three slots. If you would like to book this day, please notify me.

This year I will be taking booking fees of $50, which will be applied at %100 to your final purchase. This fee is, however, not refundable.

Mini-session pricing this year will be as follows:

$125 Family of any size (immediate family) that can fit into 30 minutes slots. If you have a larger family, or extended family, then we'll adjust fees for size/ time needs. Portrait of each person in family, family as a whole, and portrait of children, and a few storytelling shots that make my work, my work. CD of proofs and release to immediate family for printing.

$100 3 family portrait options for a Holiday Greeting card, in color as well as black and white. CD of proofs and release to immediate family for printing. I usually toss in a few more shots, but that's my formal offer =) This package focuses on primarily a Holiday card shot.

October 31st location to be determined. I'm open to suggestions.

*October was my busiest month last year, so if you have your heart set on October beauty, please book early. I have already booked 2 others sessions in October.

** And yes, I apologize for not keeping up with this blog. Terrible, I know.

Stripey Tights.

Okay, so here we are. I've been a bit, ehem, under the weather. I'm behind on posting. (Sorry, August. I really did mean to get you up here sometime!)

This was a fun family, and I will post more from their session later, but I thought I'd stop by and leave these happy pics for anyone who might need a cheer-me-up :)

Stripey tights get me every time. Ev-e-Ry Time!!!! I would wear stripey tights everyday if I could. I mean really- can you go wrong with stripey tights?

Fun pics from their family shoot and others to come. In the meantime, enjoy some happy-pretty stripey tights!

Mini-Session Shoot this Thursday!!!

So, I'm toying with a last minute mini-session shoot this Thursday. That means I book at least 3 back-t0-back shoots that last 20-25 minutes rather than 60-90 minutes. This is an economical portrait shoot--- for that 1 portrait that you need. We'll likely get good 10 shots, but are gaming for that 1 that you need to send off to Grandma or post with a birthday picture. Or a blog photo update. Or something to turn into wallets. Or a nice, large cut-out for your lawn. (Kidding.)

Bradford Beach.

This Thursday.

AFter 10:30am.

Contact me if you're interested.

$35/ child, or

$25 if you are a "facebook fan".

Proofs ready in 10-14 days due to a busy week this week and next. Likely able to get you one proof via internet rather quickly.

*Other mini-sessions to come for family Christmas cards.

Strawberry Picking Mini-Sessions Coming!!!

Planning a Strawberry Picking Trip soon...likely to Barthell's. 

Stay tuned... 

Also, web site changing very SOON---bigger pics and new format!!!

Summer Beach Mini-Sessions...

...are on their way. Contact me if you have a group of friends for a series of Mini-Sessions (30-45 minutes). Mini-sessions are $100 if you line up 3 groups of people, including yourselves. CD of 20-25 proofs/ editing included with purchase.

Another way to schedule a mini-session is as a large family photo, and then subsets of the larger family have mini-sessions. For example: a 3-Generation shot, and then shots of individual families. (A "cousins shot" would be included in a 3-Generation/ large family shoot.)
