It sure is nice to be out of the cold snap we recently endured. The holidays are over and everyone is slowly but surely settling back into “normal” routines. (Yeah, I know what really is normal?!)

Were the holidays too busy for you and you did not get to have some family photos that you were wanting? Or you would you just like a winter session with some updated photos? Many people do not really think of winter as prime photography time, however, you can still have great family photos that you were always wanting. And for a limited time, I am offering a winter special.

Receive a one hour studio or on-location session with 20 full resolution downloadable images with print release for only $175. The regular price is normally $295 for 15 images, not including the session fee. This adds up to drastic savings for you! These sessions can be for families, children, or seniors- your choice. Sessions in Springfield city parks will require an additional $25 due to the park fee to photograph there. On-location photo sessions can take place anywhere in the Springfield, MO metro area.

Limited sessions are available. $75 is due at the time of scheduling to reserve your date and time. The remaining $100 is due by the time of the session. Cash, check, or credit card are accepted for payment. Images will be ready for download from your online gallery within two weeks from the session.

Call 417-693-0792 or e-mail contact@bellaroseimages.com to schedule your session soon before they fill up!

I am so excited to share the next tidbit of awesome news! I am now introducing a membership program that will allow you to save hundreds on your photography session! Yep, that is correct- Join now and you can save for the rest of the year! Wouldn’t you love to be able to get affordable family portraits near Springfield, MO? Now you can! With this new membership I am offering, you can join now and reap the benefits of the awesome discounts for ALL of 2013.

There are two levels of membership. The higher your membership level, the higher your discount will be. So if you are even thinking you might get family portraits taken this year, this is an awesome way to save a whole lot of money!  The membership can pay for itself several times over with your very first session. But the great thing is, the value of the membership is good all year long, not just on one session! Wow!

So what’s the catch you ask? Well, due to the extensive savings members will receive, the  number of members allowed to join will be very limited. Once we have reached a minimum number of members, others may still join, but the cost of the membership will double. Don’t get me wrong, even at twice the cost, it’s still a great deal. But after I have reached my maximum number of members, the offer will be absolutely closed to everyone else. So join now to get the best savings you will get from Bella Rose Images this year!

Beginning December 6th, we will have special sessions with the Old County Winter set. This is an awesome set that is perfect for winter! You will feel like you have actually stepped into an old country winter. Sessions begin at just $25 and include prints! They will not be this low again ever! However, those who schedule sessions for this promotion, will be offered these same prices for ALL of next year’s special sessions and will not have to pay the higher prices. The sessions will last 15 minutes and will be immediately followed by a viewing and ordering session where you will pick your pose for your package and/or order additional prints. So plan to spend about 30 minutes total at the studio. You can view the pricing information and schedule your sessions online by visiting our “Promotions” page or by clicking here. 

The dates will be as follows:
December 6th 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
December 7th 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
December 8th 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
December 9th 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Here is a photo of the set.

Here are a couple example photos of a recent session with the set.

Hope to see you soon!

I just love this fall weather! It is a photographer’s dream! And to celebrate it, I am going to run a Grand Opening Fall Special. From now until November 11th, you can have a mini-session, which includes your images on a CD (with print release) for only $50!! In addition, you will receive a specially designed Facebook timeline cover photo for free! What a deal! So, what are the details, you ask?  Well, here you go:

• Keep in mind this is a mini-session. It will last no longer than 30-45 minutes. If we get all the great shots sooner than that, then you will be done sooner and have more time for your family!
• The sessions can be at a location of your choice in or around Springfield, MO, your home (if you live near Springfield), or in my studio in Springfield. The height of the wonderful fall leaves is coming up, so if you would like to schedule an outdoor session, contact me soon before those spaces fill up. 
• You will receive five to six images on your CD. We will schedule for you to come into my studio for a viewing session about a week or so after your photo session. Here you will get to choose which photos go on your CD. If you prefer not to come into the studio, we can meet in your home if you like. Or if you feel you won’t be able to decide, I can choose the best photos and put them on the CD for you!
• The images will come with a print release and you can have them printed where you like. If you don’t have a favorite printer, I will make a suggestion of a printer that I love, who has great quality! If, however, you would like to order your prints from me, of course that would be awesome,  but you are under absolutely NO obligation to do so. But if you choose to, I will give you a 50% discount for A La Carte prints or Build Your Own Packages for this special. However, the Premium Collections are already discounted, so the 50% discount does not apply to them, but I will discount them 25%. Build Your Own Packages begin at $30 (before the discount) and Premium Collections begin at $300 (before the discount). We will discuss specific prices when you call to schedule your session.
• The image CD will contain five to six photos. I find that usually folks have a favorite four or five images from most sessions anyway, but if you would like to have more images included on your CD, I will be happy to do so for a small additional charge.
• Each session is for one family. If you have extended family you would like photographed with you that would be great! There will be an additional fee of $25 and the session will extend by 15 minutes for each additional family.

Have more questions or want to schedule your session? Call Erica at 417-693-0792 soon to get your first choice of available times. Remember this special ends November 11th, so call soon!
