Well, the time has finally come…Christy Johnson Photography is now Be True Image Design!

Please visit the website here.

The new blog is here.

And the new Facebook page is here.

And today is a good day to visit, because there’s a Groovy Giveaway starting today!

Don’t forget to update your RSS/google reader/feedburner thingys (heehee) and thank you for joining me on my new journey!

Yes, I know it is literally 100 degrees out there! But my fall calendar has a tendency to fill rather quickly, so I want to give a special gift to all you overachievers out there (like me!) If you book and pay for your family photo session by July 31st, you’ll receive a FREE set of 25 custom holiday cards! I’ve got some super cute new designs this year!

To book your session, please email me at christy@christyjohnson.com!

I’ve been working on my website, all the live long day.
I’ve been working on the website and I need some more bell-ays.

Okay, sorry about that. I know, it was bad. But keep reading! What comes up is good!

I need to freshen up my maternity portfolio for the new website. I am looking for 2-3 ladies who are in their third trimester, somewhere between 30-36 weeks. I’m offering a complimentary maternity session and a free 8×10 in exchange for a model release allowing me to use the images on my site!

Please contact me at christy@christyjohnson ASAP so we can set up your session before baby arrives!

So after this morning’s session, I tweeted about how gorgeous these children were. And now I’m blogging them and saying “told you so!”

See what I mean?

And if anyone can figure out how to get a photo just like this of my two girls, I will pay big, big money for it!

Sweet, beautiful Riley made my job so easy.

And Sheamus is your typical almost two-year old - very busy and very curious.

Sarah and Scott, thank you so much for having me over this morning! It was a blast, and I have many favorites to show you very soon!

Don’t forget to reserve your spot for the Mommy & Me mini-sessions scheduled in May! Dads, this would be a fantastic and original idea for Mother’s Day! Photographs can last a lifetime, and they never go out of style. And one size fits all!

I have changed things up a bit, and added a digital collection to the offering. Questions? Email me! christy@christyjohnson.com.

Sam and her family are getting ready to move out of state next week, so we squeezed in her 9 month session yesterday. And what a Good Friday it was! Sam’s dad has the MOST cool 1959 Chevrolet truck, and we put that baby to good use before it drives out of town!

I can’t tell you how much it means to me to have clients that trust in my vision! Jen, Ben and Sam, thank you from the bottom of my creative soul! I hope you have an easy time with the move, and I can’t wait for Sam’s 1-year session this summer!

By the way, don’t forget to register for the Mommy & Me Mini Sessions! Not only would this be a fabulous gift for Mother’s Day, but moms - consider giving Dad a beautifully framed print of his favorite people for Father’s Day!

Calling all moms! Do you have the “always-behind-the-camera” blues? Do you ever flip through your family’s photo albums and wish you were actually IN the pictures?

The time is NOW. Don’t worry about getting your hair did. Forget about those last 10-20-30 pounds you want to lose. Your relationship with your child is so special…it’s unique…it’s right now, ever fleeting. Put some photographs in that album that your child will cherish for a lifetime.

Mommy & Me Mini Sessions are limited, so make sure to get on the calendar soon. And Dads - can you think of a better Mother’s Day gift?!

A quick calendar note: April and May are fully booked, and I am beginning to book for June and July! Of course, I always try to leave room in the schedule for newborns - but make sure to contact me before baby arrives!

A reminder about the winter newborn promotion! If you are expecting a new baby between now and March 31st, book your newborn session today and receive 25 complimentary birth announcements + one free 8×10 print!

Be sure to reserve your spot on the calendar early ~ newborns must be photographed within the first 10 days of life!

Sam is one of my favorite participants in the Building Blocks first year plan. I have done her newborn session and her 3-month session, and today I was SO excited for her 6-month session!

6-month olds are generally SO happy and SO smiley, and Sam was eager to oblige!

Of course, she had her more serious side too…especially when we were trying to distract her from something MUCH more interesting than the camera.

Here she is in mid-sentence telling me exactly what I can go and do with said camera…

And just one more, because I just can’t resist this face!

Sophia and Boris are best friends, despite their age difference. And well, that different species part.

I tried something new for this photo, what do you think? I think it suits her classic outfit!

Look at this sweet little face. I could eat her up! Sophia’s grandmother made this dress for her. Isn’t it gorgeous?!

Thanks guys! Your gallery will be ready TODAY!
