Spotlight: Hannah and Sam!

Aren't they cute?!?! Hannah and Sam first came through our doors at Christmas time. Sam brought one of his dad's old cars to play with and Hannah brought her kitty and tea set - Shelly had a blast photographing them! (If you'd like to see some of those images, check out our Facebook page - click on the Unique Kids Photo Album.) I guess they had a good time too, because not too long ago 3-year-old Hannah asked to come back. She said to her mom, "can we go back to the place where the lady put my kitty on her head?" (Shelly will often do crazy things to get the kids to smile!) So...they came back...and it was wild! One of our most energetic, upbeat sessions! Just take a look at a small sample of the fun!

We are thrilled that these two came in to help us with Sample Month - we enjoy having them here so much! We look forward to seeing more of them in the future! Keep your eyes peeled for more images of Hannah and Sam as Sample Month draws to a close.

TTFN! (Ta Ta For Now!)

"I want to be a model...because I'm beautiful"

Part 1

All January we've been advertising that we are looking for Models to be part of Sample Month, and we've had lots of amazing people ask about it so far...but this little girl tops them all!

So it's Monday morning, and we walk in to find this on our answering machine...


Oh, oh, OOOOoooOOoooh!!!

Part 2

So we look up the song (from the lyrics, as best we could determine them from the answering machine), and once we found out what the song was...


I hope she calls back, because we'd LOVE to have her perform for us live!

Crazy Video of Ashley

Here's something fun - remember the snow we had two weeks ago? Well, Ashley (our newest photographer) was outside trying to sweep off some of the snow from the stoop of the Portrait Shoppe and...well, she can get a little crazy sometimes. So while she was sweeping--you know what, you'd better just watch the video.



You know what the funniest part is? She didn't know that we were recording video! She just thought it was a couple of still shots! So, that's just Ashley being herself. We love our staff!

Spotlight: Karina is 1!

Check out this cutie!

Her name is Karina, and she turned 1 not that long ago! We think this is especially cool because her mom brought her in 4 times in her first year, linking each one with a particular season - how creative!

Enjoy being 1 Karina!

Thanks for giving us the chance to photograph you in your very first year! We look forward to seeing more of you in the future!

A Portrait Shoppe Wall Portrait

Our friend Diane sent us this snapshot of her most recent family wall portrait taken at the Portrait Shoppe. With her permission, we wanted you all to see just how good it looks "at home."



It looks awesome Diane! What a great choice of background and frame to fit your sitting room. Thank you SO much for sharing with us!

Isn't she adorable? These are the kind of photographs that come out of the Paw-traits Contest, and we're hoping to see a lot more just like this!

Just give us a call at 859.277.6671 and make an appointment for your furry friend, and you can have images just like Nellie's!
