First of all, I would like to wish you all a very Happy New Year! Welcome 2013, and all the greatness that this year shall bring.
Now, onto the fun stuff! I feel so bad for neglecting all of you with my newsletters for the past year. They were few and far between, and this year I promise to deliver on time. Not only do I let you all know of the current specials, upcoming events, and such. This year they will also be full of useful information that I hope you can use. Things from "What do I wear to my session?" to "What type of camera should I buy?"
A few things have changed for the upcoming year for AIP.
First of all, I would like to announce that I am only taking a small amount of Weddings this year. That number is 10, and currently I have space for 7 more. It's not that I don't LOVE Weddings, it's that I have so many other things planned for this year, I want to make sure I'm not overbooking (like in years past).
New Studio Policies:
- All ordering sessions will be scheduled in studio at the end of your shoot. This means that we will schedule a date, usually 2 weeks from your shoot, for you to come in, view your images, and decide which products you would like to purchase.
- Orders must be placed within 14 days of your viewing/ordering session. You will have an online gallery to view/choose your images. (If not already done) If order is not placed by then, your gallery will expire, and there is a $49 fee to have it added again.
- Contracts and deposits must be received in order to book your appointment.
- Any purchase over $300 will be eligible for a payment plan. (YAY!)
All of these new policies are to ensure my business runs smoothly and efficiently, and you get the products in a timely manner.
Last but not least, I want to thank each and every one of the vendors who participated in making my Grand Opening a HUGE success!
Lora Losinger of Sophisticated Floral and Design

A huge Thank You also goes out to my Dad, Craig Murphy for being such an awesome Santa Claus. What a trooper for sitting in that suit all day long, taking photos, listening to Christmas wishes, and handing out candy canes.
