Do kids still use their imagination?

I was having a conversation with a Mom and Grand mom about how we as children used to have to provide our own imagery.

We used to play outside a lot more and in doing so, we invented stories in which we were all participating as characters. Mostly they were super heroes or thematic representations like a mom, a teacher, a pirate etc.... We did not consciously know this or even cared. the only thing we knew was that it was fun.

When friends were not available or when we couldn't go outside, I remember reading a lot. We had at our house, those large illustrated books that were big and heavy. As soon as I started reading, I embarked on the adventure. I imagined I was part of it. I am not so sure our kids get much chances to do this any more.

I think that subconsciously, I kept the special places from those adventure books that were close to my heart alive. Now, I have the chance to share all this and maybe give the opportunity to a few kids to experience the joy and the fun of role playing. Of course at my studio it is done with flair... The kids come in, get costumed, step onto a scene and play. While doing so, they get photographed. I must admit; I have just as much fun as they do throughout the whole thing.

Tattle Tales Portraits are about being the illustration in the story. I try to bring to the experience the way I felt while reading my big books. I have had very favorable feedback from the children and from the parents too. And now, the children can be their own illustrations.  have their own story books with their name and images inside.

See for yourself the different stories your children can be part of...

Happy Imagining!

There is a perk for finding a good find ! When you buy a voucher for a Tattle tales session through Living Social, and then get three friends to buy it too, yours is free... Sounds like a good deal to me...
Hurry. The feature will be on Living Social until Friday only.

Tattle Tales being featured again!

This time in Brampton on the Living Social site. Here is the link. This feature will not last long. Two days only.

The image on the feature is of the angels on a cloud theme, but the voucher you buy is valid for any the of the Tattle Tales sessions that are already scheduled. As long as you schedule your session before the voucher's expiry date.

Hurry before the deal ends. Oh, and if you tell three friends and they buy vouchers, yours is free. 

The next few scheduled themes are: Angels on a cloud until the end of February, then Birthday surprise - the balloon set and then March break... We have three different themes scheduled during March Break. But that's another BLOG...

Good WINTER morning!

Hello everyone,

What a beautiful winter wonderland scene this morning...

It was not fun driving to work though, even for my little 3 minute commute. I hope everyone got to work safely. the roads are getting better now but still be cautious.

The calls to redeem their vouchers have started to come in. The wood's fairy is number one on the charts... It is on of the themes scheduled during March Break

Remember, it's first come first serve and there are only so many sessions available per theme. We could allow for more sessions per day, but being the only photographer here, I like to give a very personal service to each and every little one who comes to play on my sets :)

The buck-off feature is on for 2 more days. I will keep you posted at the end on how many deals sold.

I wish you all a great day

March break preps already?

Yesterday, I was talking with a Mom about March break... Already? well yes, if there are tickets to buy or reservations to be made, it's time to book now because you might not find what you want if you wait too long.

She had a point.

This is why I decided to offer three different Tattle Tales themes during March break week. And if you take action now, you can buy your session for up to 3 children through the buck-off promo for only $69 and that includes prints.

DON'T DELAY, buy your voucher, then call the studio and reserve your session or sessions. There are no limits.  And each vouchers qualifies you for one session and the print package with it. But remember, first come first serve.

I do not know how many vouchers sold up until now, but I know there are only 3 days left...

Enjoy the rest of the day!
