Father's Day Mini-Sessions

I love the weather this time of year, but not the increasingly busy schedule! If your schedule is like mine, you probably haven't even thought about Mother's Day, let alone Father's Day in June! However, Father's day will be here before you know it and those daddies need us to love on them!

How about doing that with a Father's Day mini-session?  Even though I have called these sessions "Father's Day Mini-sessions", you can truly use them to meet YOUR photography needs.

Some possibilities:

Father's day (surprise dad, or include him!)
Gift for grandpa
Update family photos
Siblings only
Mom and kids
Try out custom photography

This was taken at our family session by my good friend and fellow photog Meghan. Mark and I love having this priceless photo of he and the girls! It's on the back of my phone case!

This is a sample layout of the 10x20 collage that comes in your mini-session collection. "DAD" letters are optional.

Example of a 3/4" standout mounting. This will be how the 10x20 collage will be mounted.

Back of standout. Your 10x20 will come ready to hang. Or this would look great on a picture stand on dad's desk! 

Ok, now for the best part. You can get your session fee waived! (The mini would cost $250 instead of $300) Refer two friends who book and you will get $50 off!

my peeps know me

Do you have good "peeps" in your life? Not just any peeps, but I mean PEEPS. I use the word peeps here and there, but what I'm really referring to here are my people. Still need clarification? My people are those awesome souls in my life who I don't have to explain myself to because they already know. They have seen my best side and my very worst and they still love me.  I'm blessed.

Every Thursday, for at least ten years, my family and I have been doing dinner & doing life with some of our people . Sure, there are some Thursdays when nobody can make it. But more often than not, we meet for dinner every week. Rotating from house to house. Our group has grown from ten plus adults, to ten adults plus ten children. It's a crazy time, but I love it! It's getting tricky, but I do my best to schedule everything around Thursday dinner.

The host cooks the main dish and everybody brings everything else. Not only do I get to catch up and have some good laughs, I get to skip making dinner several Thursdays in a row. Double bonus!

Tonight, my contribution was dessert. One thing my people KNOW about me is that 99% of the time, my dessert is going to be chocolate. It just is. I try other non-chocolate recipes, but it's always back to the chocolate.

In searching for what to make, I ran across this gem of a recipe today and I want to share it with you. (peanut butter cup brownies).  It's a gem because it is so scrumptious AND so easy. I really need easy these days. Oh, and you saw that it has chocolate and peanut butter? That's right up there on my list of weaknesses. I've run across people who don't like the combo and well, I just can't believe it.

If you are fellow chocolate lover and you like easy too, you've got to try these. Oh chocolatey goodness.

Let me know if you try them! You can find the recipe on the blog Baked Perfection.

Incase you want to see my people, here we are on our last trip (in classic elementary school photo pose). Two are missing from the photo.....
