the AFTER sale | Northern Virginia Portrait Photographer

Some of you have braved the Black Friday Crowds, and some have been feverishly hitting your favorite websites for the online deals (more my speed), and now it is time to hit up “the AFTER sale” for Marta Locklear Photography.

My session fee is going up for 2010. This is your last chance to Pre-Purchase Session fees for 2010.

So how and why do you “pre-purchase” a session fee?

1. To save money. I am offering up to 50% off my 2010 session fee.

2. Follow this link to purchase straight from the web here

the AFTER sale

3. You will be shipped a Session Fee card that will be yours to use whenever you want in the year 2010. Be sure to call 1-2 months ahead for scheduling.

4. Sale ends Monday November 30, 2009 (for the workers) at Noon EST.

Just because I like to have a picture…here is an out take from the session I did with my own monkies!

News…News…and more News | Busy Portriat Photographer

Taking a moment to share all kinds of news with everyone. Hmmm….where do I start?

First. I did my first Boutique Craft Show as a photographer this weekend. It went really well and I want to personally thank those that came just to see me! Many took advantage of the half off session fee for 2010…keep your eyes peeled to the blog…I may give my blog readers another chance to take advantage of that too!

I will be announcing the winner of the Free Session tomorrow!

Second. I have been asked to teach at a wonderful retreat for photographers in March! Here is a peek at the venue and the list of speakers and WS teachers. Here is a little quick grab from The Savvy Photographer. I believe registration opens Dec 1st. You can find more info HERE.

The Savvy Photographer_ {are you ready...}

I am so excited I just can’t stand it! The location is to die for and to be able to just shoot and teach there will be awesome! So get those cameras ready…tell Santa what you want for Christmas…and come play with me (and all the other fabulous photogs) in March!

Third. 2009 is pretty much booked solid! I will still except full Newborn & Maternity clients due to their time sensitive nature…but everyone else is going to have to schedule a mini session in the studio, or wait until January for a full session!

Fourth. I just finished my second online Workshop last week. Although I had the Flu and several infections (from the flu) it was  still a great group and I love teaching to pieces!

My January WS is completely Sold Out.

Congrats to Nicole Matthews who won a free spot in my Jan WS from The Savvy Photographer…on her Birthday!

I have posted the next online WS dates. Feb 28- March 15. You can see more on my WS website www.martalocklear.com or go ahead and register here.

Last but not least. (I told you I had a lot!) I am working on a in person Workshop near Dallas Texas for May 2010. If you are interested in the details about this workshop when they are released sign up HERE.

Phew…off to edit some more!

A Baby & A Thief | Leesburg Newborn Photographer

I had the luxury of a nice country drive to Leesburg Virginia to meet this little gentleman, his family…and his Cocoon loving Golden Retriever. This family was a dream to work with and while the little guy was chowing and being rocked by Mommy their first baby  was either hamming it up for my camera or stealing my baby Cocoons. I didn’t mind a bit though…made for some entertainment and adorable images.
