Sara Kate – Senior Rep 2010 {Abilene, Texas}

Hey blog world… meet Sara Kate! She is one of my senior reps for 2010. If anyone is interested in being a senior rep, I am still in need of one for Abilene High School and one for Cooper High School here in Abilene! Sara Kate goes to Abilene Christian High School. Senior rep photo sessions happen in the fall (as senior sessions should! That way you have photos for the whole year, can use them for awards banquets, etc. and don’t have to mess with taking photos in the spring when you are in the middle of prom, winter formal, graduation, and all that craziness!) Anyways, here is the beautiful Sara Kate, I hope you enjoy! Keep checking the blog because I have LOTS to catch up on this week! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

That’s right, A Moment in Time Photography is having an Open House TOMORROW night from 6:30 – 8:30, Come and Go!! It is going to be a FABULOUS event, with cake by Culinary Chef Kelly Boyden, punch, finger foods, door prizes from The Honeycomb Tree, Paramount Theater, Spano’s Italian Restaurant, McKay’s Bakery, The Party Bag, Cypress Street Station, The Beehive Restaurant, Relics, The Loft at Under One Roof, and, of course, A Moment in Time Photography!

Look for A Moment in Time Photography on Facebook at www.facebook.com/amomentintimephotography and join our fanpage, as well as RSVP’ing to come to the party! I can’t wait to see everyone there!!

A Moment in Time Photography will also have a super fun photo booth to take fun and crazy pictures, and 10% off any session booked tomorrow night, or $150 of any wedding booked that night! You MUST be there and talk to Jennifer in person to take advantage of the discounts!!

For details about the other businesses, see below!

The Honeycomb Tree is an awesome little shop downtown on North 2nd Street. It has really cute jewelry and other gifts, too! It also has antiques set up in different “rooms” for you to browse through. I have personally found several jewelry pieces there, as well as some accessories for the new studio!

The Paramount Theather is a downtown Abilene classic. Whether you have watched a movie, play, concert, or opera in this theater, I am sure you remember being dazzled by wonderful performances, as well as dazzled by the stars in the beautiful ceiling! The Paramount is wonderful for a romantic date!

Spano’s Italian Restaurant is the perfect beginning to a romantic date. Their food is excellent, but the service and atmosphere is unparalleled in Abilene. It is an intimate date, or a wonderful place to go with friends where you can talk in a nice, quiet atmosphere.

McKay’s Bakery is another downtown favorite. Their thumbprint cookies are amazing, as well as their cakes, pies, and pastries. If you have your portrait done with A Moment in Time Photography, you know that at your preview and order session you can always look foward to a box of McKay’s cookies and pink lemonade!

The Party Bag is a new place in Abilene, located in the United Shopping Center on EN 10th and Judge Ely. All of the plates, napkins, silverware, and other party accessories for the Open House were purchased here. They have a wonderful selection of colors and themes for parties from weddings, to bachelor/ bachelorette parties, birthdays, anniversaries, and just because parties! They also make great balloon bouquets that are wonderful for parties, to celebrate a new arrival to a family, or to support your favorite athlete for thier competition!

Cypress Street Station is another wonderful restaurant in downtown Abilene. Their menu is truly great – their is a dish for everyone to enjoy. The atmosphere is also fun for a night out on the town!

The Beehive Restaurant is another Abilene favorite. They started in 1983 in Albany, Texas and had such great success, they opened a restaurant here in Abilene in the beginning part of 2008. They serve only Certified Black Angus Beef that is aged to perfect tenderness and then grilled over mesquite coals for that super yummy flavor that only the Beehive has!

Relics is a home furnishings company downtown. They have everything from home accessories, to furniture, as well as the super-talented owner, Rebecca’s decorating advice!! If you are looking for a fabulous new item to add to your home that is unique and beautiful, Relics is the place to go!

The Loft at Under One Roof is a cute place to meet a friend or spouse for lunch. It is located in conjunction to Under One Roof, which is a great store to find jewelry, accessories, and lots more! If you are wanting to make a trip to Fredericksburg to go to their shops, pass on the trip, and go to Under One Roof!

Whew! That is quite a list! Isn’t Abilene great that it has so many wonderful local establishments!!

See you at the Open House!

Bailey Family {Abilene, Texas}

This past week I got to take Stan and Jessi and their adorable kids’ photos! We had such a great time hanging out, and their boys were great! I had my friend Cassie come along with me to help with the kids / act like a goofball for laughs / feed the little one dinner while we snuck a few shots with just Stan and Jessi, and she was a WONDERFUL help! Thanks so much, Cassie!! Jessi has already sent me a testimonial to use on my website!

“Jennifer shot our family…pictures! (haha)

Jennifer took family pictures of the Bailey crew and was awesome.  We have a three year old and 6 month old, which you think would be stressful enough, but Jennifer handled it like the pro that she is.  She was even prepared with babysitter assistance and props to keep the kids distracted.  My husband enjoyed it as well – guys out there, Jennifer makes you kiss your wife/girlfriend/fiancé in a TON of shots!  The pictures turned out great and we could not have been happier with our photography experience.  So, if you’re looking for that perfect photographer for your family, bridal, seniors, or just for fun, Jennifer is your girl –guaranteed!”

Thanks, Jessi!! Now for the photos!

A and K’s Six Month Photos {Abilene, Texas}

A couple of weeks ago, I had the honor of shooting A and K’s six month portraits! It was such a blast! I have never gotten to take photos of twin babies before, and while it was as challenging as it sounds, it was also twice as great!! I think that their grandparents will be thrilled with their Christmas presents this year, don’t you think?

Scroll down to the next post down to see the winners of the Christmas Special Give Away!
