Valentine’s Day Mini Sessions

Posted on January 9, 2013 by admin

February 14th is Valentine’s Day. Who didn’t love the Valentine’s Day parties at school? You would make your little valentine holder and decorate it. Then you would walk around the room and deliver your valentines to the class. There was always a party, with cupcakes and cookies and other goodies. Party days at school were always the best! After you received all of your valentines, you would look though them all to see what you got. You would look to see who had the coolest valentines. Some were hand made, some were duplicates of others. Some had cool, popular characters from current movies. We think our valentines would qualify for the ‘cool’ pile. How can they not? They would star your child!

January 26 we are having a mini sessions day. The theme will be Valentine’s Day. These are quick little sessions. No session fees. For $75 you will receive 5-10 images to view, 1-8×10 for you, 2-5x7s, perfect for grandparents, and 24 wallets, great to hand out to the class for valentines! Wallets can be personalized, so the other students can be sure to remember your child! You will also receive 10% off any other prints purchased that day.

We do expect these sessions to book, so please call early to book your session. $75 is due at the time of booking.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Every Time I Turn Around It’s One More…

Photobooth that is! Our photobooth has taken a life of it’s own! We’ve been so busy with it that we built a second booth to keep up with the demand.

If you haven’t seen or been in our photobooth, then you must be living under a rock! Seriously, we have have been all over the place with it. Hazelton, Penn’s Peak, Sand Springs, Milford, Montdale Country Club, Nay Aug, Moffat Estate and even my own back yard for my daughter’s graduation party.

If you want to check out our booth, join us at Studio 32 in Wilkes Barre on Aug 19th, Nay Aug Park on Aug 20th, or the GDS fair from Aug 27 – Sept 3.

Below are some of the images from some of the crazy people who have been in our booth.

The Lake House

Posted on August 11, 2011 by admin

This family came to us last year for photos. Actually, we came to them! They are from Jersey, but have a home up here that has been in the family for years. The house sits near a large pond, or small lake, whichever you prefer to call it. When I think lake, I think of the Paupack, so anything smaller than that is a pond. haha

This next image is probably my favorite from the session!

But, this family had such incredible images last time (such a gorgeous family!) that they gave us a call when they were planning their vacation for this year. Since we did the lake last year, let’s do something by the house, Tara said. Sounds good to us. Other than that, she pretty much gave us full reign!

Im not quite sure that the two little girls remembered us from last year, but the older one didn’t shy away, and even followed us along as we scouted out some places to shoot. The lighting was looking really good, so we started with the family in front of the house and then moved around. We made sure to take time out for a “silly break” when the kids were looking bored.

The son loves his tractor, and when they are there for the summer, he rides it around, so we made sure that we had some shots of him on that with mom! Mom even talked her cousin and his boy into jumping into the last shot – the men with their rifles. We went a little more dramatic with that one.

This family is awesome! Before we left, we were talking about what we can do different for next year. We can’t wait!

Early to Rise

Posted on June 18, 2011 by admin

We have been wanting to do another water shoot all year. After our heat wave towards the end of May, we decided that maybe the water was warm enough to try it. Now, to find a victim. Oops! I mean model! Emily was all into it, and even went shopping for some new dresses. I decided that I wanted this one to be an early morning shoot. I am NOT a morning person, but I knew it would be worth it for the lighting that we’d get. But, at 5am Emily was at the door and we were off!

We got to the lake and the lighting was just as we thought it would be; nice cool blue tones. Just as we got to the water a snake slithered by in the water! I have been at that lake my whole life and have never ever seen a water snake. Maybe because I’m not up at 5:30!

One thing I completely forgot about, was that the water would be high. It always is in the spring. There was no beach like we were planning on. So, we worked with what we had. Emily climbed up on the rock and worked it.

The sun was quickly coming up, and the snake was probably long gone by now, so it was time to get in the water. We did some shooting in the blue dress, then decided to change to the red one. She was starting to get a little more confident, and really started getting into it as she worked the poses.

We had a lone fisherman trolling around in the background. I think he was trying to figure out what the heck was going on! In no time, we were finished and left him to his fish. I think Emily did an awesome job!

Our Valentine Boxer

Posted on May 9, 2011 by admin

This guy came in to get some portraits done for Valentine’s Day. Such a well behaved dog! We didn’t need a leash, which is always a plus. He pretty much did anything we asked him to do. He had such beautiful markings on him.

These are our favorite images.

Graduation Announcements are Here!!

Posted on May 9, 2011 by admin

Its that time of the year again. Graduation time! This year is especially sentimental for me. My oldest is part of the class of 2011, and the end of the year is coming fast.

I recently designed some graduation announcement cards. All of our cards are available in many different shapes, sizes, and paper finishes; which can be seen on our website. If you don’t like what you see in this gallery, we can design something specifically to you.

If you order cards by the end of May, you also receive 10% off a print order. This is a great way to get those extra wallets that you’ve been meaning to re-order!

A Different Kind of Mother’s Day Photo

Posted on March 5, 2011 by admin

Lynsey came to us for some Mother’s Day photos. She wanted something different. You know us; we don’t like to be the same as everyone else. Luckily we had just gotten in our new backdrops and were anxious to try them out! The feedback that we got on them has been good, so we will probably be getting more from these manufaturers.

Lynsey brought some of her son’s favorite toys, along with a hat. This is something we encourage with kid’s shoots. Bring things that they love or are familiar with. This will help them to feel more comfortable durring the shoot.

We really enjoyed working with them and hope to see them again! Here are a few of our favorites from the shoot! Let us know what you think.

Senior Rep Application is Now Posted

Posted on February 2, 2011 by admin

We are currently looking for 2012 graduates to be our Senior Representatives. We have been using our Senior Rep program to help get our name out there, and it has been working well for us. We have changed our program a little bit this year, and are excited to get it rolling.
What is the Senior Rep Program?
In short, the Senior Reps are our company’s representatives. We use their photos for advertising. We also rely on them to help promote us. In exchange for their hard work, they receive FREE products and discounts on their session.

How Do I Apply?
Simply fill out an application. The application can be found on our website We will review all applications, and choose the people that we feel would best represent our company. We do not accept everyone that applies, so be sure to fill out your application early. Deadline for applying is May 31.

What is Required of Me if I Become a Rep?
We start off with your free photo shoot. This will be done early, to give time to get you your promotional material to hand out. This shoot includes hair and makeup. We have a lot of great locations, and are really working hard to step up our game this year, so be prepared to rock your session! After your session, we will post your images on facebook, and tag you in these images. You share these images on your page with your friends, letting them know how much fun you had on your shoot. The goal is to have all of your friends become a fan of Your Pixel Perfect, and come to us for their senior photos. You must also come back to us for your senior shoot.

How Much Does it Cost?
Becoming a Rep is free! You spread our name and we reward you! Every senior who comes in with one of your Rep Cards will receive free wallets. For the first referral, you will receive ½ off your senior session. For every referral after that, you will receive $50 in print credits towards your prints! Send us just 5 referrals and receive a free Rock the Frock session for you and those 5 friends as a group session! We also throw in some other freebies, t-shirts and other promotional products. At the end of the year, we total up our referrals. The Rep that sent us the most referrals throughout the school year will win their choice of one of 4 prizes; a Kindle, a netbook, a digital camera, or a $200 Visa card.

Mother’s Day Promotion

Posted on February 2, 2011 by admin

It’s that time of year again, almost. It’s almost Spring. According to the groundhog today, there’s only 6 more weeks of winter left! Yay! We’ve been getting ready for the new season with some new props as well as backgrounds. We bought a couple new ones that I can not wait to try out!

The Scranton Times wants all admissions for the Mother’s Day Photo section early. I think it was late March last year. So, we need to get the appointments booked soon if you want to make the deadline!

As an extra incentive, we are giving away a FREE accordion book with every session booked between today and March 20. These books are made of press paper and have 10 individual ‘sides’ to them. What a great way to show off your session! They were only available as an incentive last year. But, now they are available to everyone! Book your session and get yours!

Tarah

Posted on January 21, 2011 by admin

This is Tarah. She is a senior at NP this year. She’s one of my daughter’s friends; one that I’ve known since she was young. It’s been fun this year doing photos for all these kids that I remember as little ones running up and down the soccer field, or across the basketball court.

When Tarah got here, she just wanted to get her shots and get done.

But soon, our goofing off loosened her up a little. We made her do some Top Model poses, which of course, made her feel silly. We promised her that we wouldn’t post them, but it did get her laughing, which gave us the chance to get some great images.

Outdoors it was nice and overcast. There was no way we could pass that up, so we headed outdoors! With her blonde hair and fair skin against the snow, I knew it would make for some awesome shots.

Good luck to Tarah as she goes on to study pre-med. I know she will do great! You can see a few more of Tarah’s images on our facebook site.
