Reminder: The Spring Mini-Session Event || New York Family Portraits

I don't know about you, but I am more than ready for spring. It has been frigid the past couple weeks, which has left me thinking about warm, breezy days; ice cream in the park; flowers sprouting up from the wintery, barren ground; and most importantly: being able to photograph my amazing clients outside again!

In order to celebrate spring (once it gets here!), I have decided to hold a spring mini-session event on Saturday, April 17th in Central Park! Mini-sessions are exactly what they sound like: short photo sessions. Instead of shooting for two hours and having fifty images to choose from, we will shoot for thirty minutes, and you will have ten to fifteen images to choose from.

Each mini-session is $250 and includes:
1. A 30 Minute Photo Session in Central Park
2. Creative Editing of Images in the Digital Darkroom
3. Five Gift Prints (You choose the images and sizes: either 4x6, 5x7 or 8x10.)
4. A Web-ready DVD of all the Images from Your Session
5. 25% off Additional Prints and Products

It is going to be an amazing event, and I know the date will fill up quickly, so make sure to book your time slot as soon as possible! The following times are currently available: 10am, 10:45am, 11:30am, 12:15pm, and 1pm. Please email me at Katie [at] KatieJaneParker.com to book your slot!

Just another reason to look forward to spring!!

Katie Jane Parker Photography's New Logo! || Manhattan Photographer

I am so very excited to announce that I have a new logo! The very talented Courtney of Seamless Creative designed a beautiful logo for me, and I couldn't be happier. Courtney was very thorough and really made me think about my identity as a business. She presented several amazing designs, and I decided to go with something very simple and modern. I love it. Now begins the process of ordering new packaging and adding my logo to my blog and website.

An Announcement & Reminder || Upper West Side Photographer

First of all, I hope you are all having a wonderful week! I have been busy busy busy since I returned from my vacation, trying to catch up on everything I missed while I was away.

One of the projects I've been working on since my return is my long neglected Etsy shop. I have added several prints at new affordable prices, and I am so excited to debut them on here. Please take a moment, if you can, to take a look at some of the fine art prints I am now offering: Katie Jane Parker Photography on Etsy.

I also wanted to remind everyone about my Spring Mini-Session Event. The response has been so wonderful, so thank you to everyone who has already signed up! If you haven't yet, there are still a few spots left. Please email me for details at Katie[at]KatieJaneParker.com

Have a wonderful weekend, and I'll be back next week with a few exciting changes to announce!

Help Haiti Rise

I was catching up on all the blog posts I missed while I was on vacation, and found this via Design Crush. If you're still looking for a way to help earthquake victims in Haiti, here's a fabulous one. Fretto Prints will be donating 100% of the profits from their Help Haiti Rise t-shirt to Partners in Health, an organization that seems to be doing a lot of good on the ground in Haiti. It's a wonderful way to give back.
