Holiday mini-sessions!

Hello friends!


I hope the holidays are not sneaking up on you too fast, and that you are enjoying fall scented candles and starting to bring out the holiday decor! I know I start my count down nice and early, and embrace the holidays as much as possible! And now with it being Jordan's first holidays, I could not be any more excited!

So of course this time of year means that its time to get together for the annual family photo! If you are not a “regular” BNP client, than I think its time for you to shed the matchy white t-shirts and jeans, and get together for a fun session – one that really truly shows who your family really is right now. Wear something fun, and lets leave the stressful retail store sessions behind!

Now we are just about reaching the end of our holiday portrait session season (...yup, already!), but it’s not too late for you to get in on the action! For the folks that waited a little too long, or just did not have the funding for a full session with us this year – we have a fantastic deal for ya!...

We are offering holiday mini-sessions for the first time this year!

  • What are mini-sessions? They are 30 minute portrait sessions at a pre-selected location in north orange county (exact location will be e-mailed to you once your time slot has been confirmed). After the session, you will receive about 15-20 edited images on a web gallery, from there you can choose your 2 favorite images, and we will e-mail you the digital files so that you can make your own holiday cards wherever you would like! But of course, you are more than welcome to order cards from us for an additional charge .
  • How much will it cost? These special holiday mini-sessions are only $100! Oh, and if you refer a friend that also books a mini-session as well for the same day, we will take $10 off for ya! (just make sure they tell us you sent them!).
  • When is it? The session will be on Saturday November 27th, 2010. If that date fills up, we will be setting up 1 more day, so let me know if you are not available on November 27th , but are still interested!
  • How do we get signed up? We are offering 30 minute time slots all day, so e-mail us at Blair (at) BlairNicolePhotography (dot) com and we will let you know what is still available!

That’s all for now! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to read about our mini-sessions. If you know of any one else who might be interested in this, please forward this on! :)


All our love,
Blair , Sean and baby Jordan

Happy Halloween!

Even though it has been 8 years, October is always a hard month for me. It’s hard to be positive and only remember the good times with some one you have lost, when there are Halloween decorations everywhere. Let just say the tombstones and RIP signs (etc.) are not quite as fun for me, as it is for most other people.

And now with my sweet little boy in the mix, it just makes me think about how much my dad would have absolutely adored him. I know that he would want to spend every waking second with him, playing with him, singing and dancing in the car, having long heart to heart conversations, and spoiling him – because that’s just the kind of guy he was. He was honestly the best, most supportive person I have ever met , and I was so lucky to have him in my life for almost 17 years – I just wish that Jordan could have known him for a little bit too, to know how amazing he was...

But, on a happier note – Halloween is instantly a much better time of year now. Why, you might ask? Ummm because of Jordan of course! ...lets be honest, everything is better with Jordan! ;)
Now, I get to look forward to dressing our sweet little guy up for the holiday, and soon enough, all the excitement he will have for it!

To celebrate Jordan's 1st Halloween we headed over to the pumpkin patch for a little family picture action.

I am literally obsessed with his adorable knit pumpkin hat from this sweet Etsy shop Ruby and Mabel Happy Knits , Jacy is so sweet and easy to work with. She made it custom for Jordan's noggin. You will be seeing lots more of her adorable hats on here!

Los Angeles Wedding Photography - { Candace & Sean : Married! }

What can I say about Candace and Sean? They are so fun and laid back!
Candace is honestly one of my favorite brides ever. She is so sweet and so encouraging, her and Sean are people I would truly always consider friends - they are very genuine people. They are just the type of people that you really want in your life, and I think we are pretty lucky to have had them find us!

We had SO much fun at Candace and Sean's wedding! Everything ran so smoothly with the help of Brooke with Orange Blossom Special Events , the food was AMAZING, the music was so fun , and the day was just full of love. And once again (just like their engagement session) , Candace and Sean really put themselves into every detail of their big day! 





I cant get over how beautiful Candace is!

Anaheim Family Photography - {Carrie , Jon & Jack}

I now know from experience how important it is to really make sure to have pictures taken of your baby as much as you can. Pictures of you being a family.
The time just slips away, wayyyy too quick! I have been constantly taking pictures of our baby, since I know how much he is changing from one day to the next.
I feel so blessed to have our first family pictures with my family, and I feel equally blessed to be able to do the same for other families!
So people, if you have been putting it off or if it has been a while since you have had some family photos taken, now is the time!
…alright, so enough of my lecture about having family pictures taken, and on to the goods!

You probably remember my beautiful client Carrie from her fierce bridal portraits. Well a month ago, Carrie and her husband Jon became parents to a perfect little boy, Jack.

On Sunday I headed over to Carrie and Jon’s adorable apartment. We chatted, and I took my time taking pictures of their beautiful family. Jack was such a sweet little baby to take pictures of, and together the 3 of them make a beautiful little family!
