Easter is in March...really?

March is the double-whammy month...but as usual, I am surrounded by the best in people and the best in fun!  There is a new company out there folks...Rockin Chocolate and the owner is one of my longest and dearest friends!  What a great opportunity to unfurl some great flavors during one of the biggest candy times of the year.  This woman's confections make a mouth water...her truffles are $20.00 per dozen or $2.00 each and let me tell you they are worth every stinkin' penny!  I was so privileged to get to taste a few of these treats right in my studio along with doing a fun little session with these tasty morsels.
The delectable Turtle Cheesecake Truffle (signature flavor)...

So what are we doing this upcoming month?  For St. Patty's we will be unveiling a new Rockin Chocolate flavor in honor of the Emerald Day...we will be doing this Saturday, March 16th since St. Patrick's Day falls on a Sunday.  Starting March 1st all St. Patty's themed or green pictures will be $5.00 (5 images in a downloadable gallery) and on March 16th we are giving a single free digital image for each person that decides to come in and visit us!  

 AND We are having a drawing for Easter, which falls on March 30 this year.  We are offering folks a chance at a three different prizes (that will be named later, but will include some chocolates and picture sessions for sure...and maybe a surprise, too!)  We will be offering Easter-ish pictures starting the first week of March.  I have some prepping to do, but I assure you the pictures will be everything spring!

Watch out for bunny pictures as I get our Easter Bunnies out for their own photo session some day this week...this is going to be a super fun Month of Pictures...

Love is in the air...

Valentine's Day was the 14th (as we all know) and for the last ten days I have been doing a lot of different things in the studio that say love, hearts, and romance. On Thursday, Valentine's Day, DJMdesigns embarked on cross-promotion with Giannis Cucina just around the corner for us for folks to get some free pictures with their sweetheart on their special date night. We only had one couple show up; however, they were great people though!

It didn't really matter to me who came in or how many...it was about how fun it is. Certainly these promotions offer a certain amount of attention or recognition, but they are above all fun. What better way to spend a Holiday then with my little family in my studio doing what I love with people that I love around me.

Thanks to Giannis for partnering up and thanks to the one couple that took us up on our deal! It was fun and who knows...maybe next year people will realize just how wonderful capturing those special sweet moments with their sweetheart can be.
