FREE SESSSIONS~!
Because we are such huge animal lovers, we have decided to offer our portrait sessions (pooches, babies, kids, families, business, ect) for free~!
These sessions are normally $250.00. That session fee will be waived in exchange for a donation to a local animal shelter (we have a list of goods for the specific shelter).
In the past 3 months we have donated over 3 giant SUV loads to local shelters and want to keep it up. So please contact us if you are interested and please pass this info on to anyone you may know who might be interested.
Get some pictures. Save some puppies!

Let's Give Them Something To Talk About!

- Know Your Place. A Seat At The Table creates the perfect little Posh Placecards to get everyone chatting. With notes like "If you were granted three wishes, what would your wishes be?", these little conversation sparkers are bound to get everyone's motor running. These could easily be a DIY project, too!
- Hidden Messages. This is a fun one! Before your guests arrive, place a piece of paper with a funny message under their plates. Just before dinner is served, ask your guests to read their message to themselves and casually work their message into the conversation. These messages could be anything! Think outside-the-box with messages like "I am a space cowboy!" or "Did you know that Mary really did have a little lamb?". Your guests will think it is riot to guess what everyone's messages really said! You can even turn it into a race, where the last person to use their message loses!
- Things. The board game called "Things" is one of my own personal favorites, but beware! This game can go in many different directions. If you have friends whose minds are always in the gutter, this is bound to get a little racy. Which, to me, is half the fun! The goal is to guess who answered what to topics like "Things that make you sick" or "Things that don't smell good". If you have kids at the table, this is easily a family friendly game, too.

Pink is one of the most used colors around the beginning of spring. It is also one of the most common wedding colors! Why not share my love for all things pretty and pink by posting a few of my favorite girly wedding inspiration photos from my travels around the web. I hope you love them as much as I do!
