With my busiest season coming to a close (3 family sessions left!), I found some time to share a few images from my September/October 2011 family sessions on this poor, neglected blog! I had such a great Fall season this year, and was thrilled to see so many familiar faces, new families, and of course see some of my newborns from earlier months/years growing EVER so much!

That being said, I’m now opening up the 2012 season for booking, but through the month of November I will only be booking former clients. So if I have never photographed you or your child, you’ll have to wait a bit to try to get a session!! I am only booking a total of 40 family sessions in 2012. These sessions will only be in the months of May/June or September/October, and will either be morning or evening weekday sessions only. This does not include milestone portraits (maternity, newborn, 6 month, 9 month, or yearly portraits), I’m talking only family pictures, mom/dad/kids.

Each month will only have ten sessions each, 2-3 per week.

There is new pricing to go along with this, all sessions will now have a disc of all the edited high resolution images included in one flat price. All pricing can be found at www.rachelvanoven.com under “investment”. I simply combined the old cost of a session fee + disc of images + custom case, and dropped the costs of all add on albums and canvases. Desk prints will also be available for a reduced rate as well.

Former clients may book through the month of November-December, and I will open up booking for new clients (if there are spots left) in January.

Thank you SO much to all the families who chose me as their photographer this year…each one of you are so special to me, and I can’t wait to see y’all grow and change over the years!
