So here is a little update on what all has been going on with my little photography business and some things that are going to happen to the business. First, if you have had trouble getting in touch with me over the last couple of weeks, please try again.... or if you left me an email or voicemail I am trying to get them all returned asap. I am ALWAYS quicker to reply back to you if you email me @ jenreidphoto@sbcglobal.net . If you havn't heard, I had a little unexpected surgery almost two weeks ago and I am recovering well. Thank you everyone who sent your thought and prayers to me and my family. Now that I am getting recovered and ready to start shooting again, I just want to say that I do have some openings for the next two weekends. I will try to get everyone in for a session that I can.
Next thing thats going to have to happen is a little price change going on...yes I hate to have to do it, but I want to stay in business more. I hope the slight increase doesn't cause anyone any problems, but if I am going to provide you with the best possible products and talent, then it gets expensive for me to have the best equipment, the best training, and use the most awesome lab to give you great prints. For me to keep providing this quality of service it just has to be done. Honestly, I have been underpricing myself for years now, but my hopes are to eventually be able to afford to only focus on this job and not a second one as well. If I can ever go full time with photography, then I can give much faster customer service as well. My pricing changes will include new wedding pricing, print pricing, and I am adding a Newborn and Bridal package. The change will be happening September 15th. If you have already officially booked your wedding (meaning that I have your wedding retainer fee and your signed contract in hand), then your package price will not change. Session Fees and Wedding Retainer fees are staying the same.
Lastly, I am going to be announcing dates for special fall sessions. There will be a day set for several appointments with Fall Portraits in the Park in Wichital Falls, TX and also another day for Senior Portraits, Bridal Portraits, or any of your more urban looks like we did last year in either Deep Ellum @ Dallas or Brick Town @ OKC..I would love to hear your comments on which location we should choose for this....get enough bookings, we could do both!!! We all had such a great time last year...you shouldn't miss out on this opportunity. Remember these are also great times to get your family portraits taken for your Christmas Cards....YES I said Christmas Cards! We need to schedule your appointments for these cards in October or November. Wow...its getting close isn't it???
Okay, that's all for now. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on any of these things. Thanks for all the support and loyal customers I have had over the years. I couldn't do any of this without you!

Saturday I took a little road trip to Sulpher, OK. I met Josh and Bethany there and we went to shoot their engagement session in the Chickasaw National Park. I had never met this couple, but I quickly found out that they were fun and funny...and so great together. These first two pics are my favorites..I think! I really liked alot of them. It wasn't hard to come back with some great pics to choose from when you have such a great looking couple like these two.
Wow! Isn't she such a beautiful girl?
They laughed the entire time...I loved it!
We climbed down to take some pics by the Lincoln Bridge.
Josh and Bethany, it was great to meet the two of you. I hope you enjoyed yourselves and love the pics.
