This Holiday Season, Let Glamour Shots Help You Send The Picture Perfect Gift


The traditional form of sending holiday cards through the mail is still a popular way to send well wishes. The only difference is, today there are many other ways to send season greetings. Whether it’s through email or a social media site, people have a number of outlets to send their season's greetings. Of course, there is not a more tangible, personal way to receive a card than through the mail. This year, why not take your holiday card a step further?  Try sending a holiday greeting card with a picture of you and your family inside; the combination of the picture and a heartfelt message is sure to touch anyone who receives your holiday greeting.

A professional, quality picture will have everyone who receives your card excited to place it on their refrigerator. Here at  Glamour Shots, you can select from 12 different designs along with our standard titles. Our titles include such favorites as Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Season’s Greetings, Feliz Navidad, and Happy Hanukkah. Also, you can create a custom title at no extra charge. We offer a full selection of vertical and horizontal cards. All cards come in sets of 12 or 20, and we provide you with white envelopes for mailing. 

Standards cards are nice, but personal cards with family pictures show just how much you care. After all, you wouldn't provide a personal picture for just anyone.
Holiday cards personalized with a family portrait on them are also a great way to stay in touch with friends and family. For example, because some relatives live further away, your family may not see them as often as you'd like. A personal card will show them how your family has grown. They will love not only hearing from you, but seeing you as well.

The expert photographers at Glamour Shots are excited to help your picture say more than a thousand words of well wishes to all of your holiday card recipients. Contact us today to learn more.

Watch Your Children Grow with Yearly Family Portrait

Your children are the most important thing in your life; you love to watch them change, grow and before you know it, you'll have grown children who are having kids themselves. Family portraits give you a way to watch and remember the changes in your family as they happen.

Kids grow so fast, you may wonder where all the time goes. Your kids will change before your very eyes, but since you see them every day, you may not notice some of the little changes. As their faces grow more mature, as they get taller and lose their baby fat, as their baby teeth fall out or their hair darkens you'll want to capture each moment. The best way to do that is to take pictures, but any old pictures may not cut it. Your child may not like photos and spend all of their time ducking the camera, or the quality of photos that your camera gets might not be that great. 

Yearly family portraits will provide the great photos you want and capture the memory of your children at every age. Portraits can function as a sort of family yearbook which you can display on the wall to document your children's walk through life. You can make the dressing up and going to the portrait studio a family event that, even if they grumble about it now, your children will remember fondly in years to come. You may even set a precedent that your kids will follow with their own children.

Pictures are a great way to keep a record of your children as they grow, year by year. Family portraits make a great part of your photo collection and one that your family can cherish forever.

Tips for Taking a Great Headshot

Glamour Shots provides you with professional photography and expert makeup artists, at prices that you can't beat for your modeling portfolio. Headshots are important if you are looking to break into the modeling or acting field. Here are some tips for taking an eye catching headshot that will impress anyone who views it:

  • You want the entire focus to be on your face, so avoid wearing wild colors and prints. Dress to impress ,but go with traditional and basic colors like black, white, a deep red or navy blue.
  • Wear makeup that highlights your features without it being too overpowering and distracting. You want to go for a softer look as opposed to having a loud neon green for your eyeshadow.
  • The headshot you take should exude your personality. Just by looking at the photo the person reviewing it should get some sort of feeling or personality from you. Think about the type of look you want to portray. Do you want to be viewed as funny, serious, or sultry?
  • Glamour Shots offers you different poses for your portraits. Try doing a more serious shot, a shot where you are smiling, or a beauty shot. Doing different versions will give you more to pick and choose from.
  • If you find yourself stuck you have a professional photographer as your guide. When you are lost for inspiration or you need assistance creating the look you desire, Glamour Shots expert photography takes care of this for you.
