Annual Digital File Special
10-19-11
It’s that time of year again…time for our Annual Digital File Clear Out! I’m purging all of my 2010 client images to make room for my 2011 & 2012 clients. Now is the time to purchase your images before they are gone! I’ve added an additional option this year of purchasing a single file. So if you’re just looking for that one image from your 2010 session that was your favorite so that you can blow it up for your wall (finally!) – you have that option. And as always, if you want your entire session so that you can have an album printed (finally!) :) – that option is there as usual.
Just use the paypal button below to make your purchase and your CD will be hand-delivered or shipped to you within 2 weeks!

Welcome to the new SKP blogsite! We are so excited to move into the fifth year of Summer Knobloch Photography with a brand new look. We have merged the SKP blog and website into one – a marriage of sorts – that allows you to find everything you need in just one place. Pretty great, huh? The winter season proved to be a great respite for me as I recovered from my surgery, and gave me time to plan a TON of exciting things for SKP 2011.
This spring started off with a bang as I taught my very first workshop at a private high school here in town (such a blast!), and things are starting to fill up for our May schedule already! With that being said, in celebration of our 5th year and the new blogsite, I am offering a Celebrate promotion. What are you wanting to celebrate? Maybe it’s a new baby, a move into a new house, graduation, a birthday, mother’s day…maybe it’s just celebrating you & your awesome family. :) Whatever the reason, I want to hear why YOU want to celebrate with a SKP session. Use the contact form to email me your reason for celebrating, and when you book your mini session, not only will you receive 10% off your session – you’ll also be entered to win a FREE MINI SESSION to use at a later date!
Available dates are below and are available on a first come, first serve basis. Don’t forget to email me - spots are limited and when we run promotions like this, they go fast :)
Let the celebrating begin!
Availability:
May 7th mini sessions – field session, 3 spots remaining
May 28th mini sessions – location to be determined, 3 spots remaining

Fall Mini Event | Central Illinois Family Photographer

We had a great time this past weekend at our Fall Mini Event! I got to photograph many repeat clients, which I LOVE doing – including two that I’ve been photographing since they were fresh little newborns :) I love that! I also got to meet some new clients & even got to meet some grandmas & aunts that tagged along for sessions. It was a wonderful weekend & it went by fast!
Here’s a sampling of all the beautiful people I had the pleasure of photographing…

Can you believe it? It’s already time to book your fall session, especially if you’re going to be sending out Christmas cards! The Fall Mini Event is a quick & affordable way to update your family photo, order portraits for Christmas gifts, and send out a card that will be sure to stand out from all the CVS cards your friends will be sending.
Of course, the fall minis aren’t just for those looking for a holiday card photo. Anyone & everyone is welcome to take advantage of this special. Headshots, mother/daughter, musicians, etc. To book, scroll to the end of this post. Before you do that though, here’s some of my favorite family images I’ve captured over the last year:

Digital File Special!

My dear neglected blog readers,
I’ve been MIA lately thanks to a wonderful adventure called MOVING! Yep, we’re moving in just a couple weeks, so our house has been organized chaos lately…which equals ZERO time for blogging. I’ve been organizing like crazy and getting ready for my brand new OFFICE :) :) (can you tell I’m a bit excited to have an actual office instead of a corner of the eat in kitchen?) :) I’ve been doing some much needed tidying up, computer/keyboard cleaning (de-crumbing the keyboard, ahem). With that I’m also organizing my client files and cleaning up my external hard drive (where I back up all of my wonderful clients’ gorgeous images)…which brings me to my Digital File Special! :)
Every year I purge images from the previous year and usually offer some sort of steal for clients who want to snatch up their Session CD from last year. I’m doing the same this year, but am offering it a bit earlier due to our impending move & my recent organizing spree :)
After talking with some friends & clients, I decided to offer the special at a more affordable price this year. While I know what these digital files are worth (to you and to me), I also know that so many of you are struggling in today’s economy — and I truly want everyone to be able to take advantage of this special. So…without further ado — here’s the scoop:
Digital File Special: $75
All fully retouched, high resolution files from your Session on CD
Full re-printing rights, no limitations or restrictions
2 sets of wallets, for good measure :)
ENDS SEPTEMBER 12th
All sessions from 2009 are included in this special. You’ll have your CD in hand within 2 weeks of ordering. Just shoot me an email & we’ll get started on your CD! I’ll also re-host your gallery if you like while you wait for your CD.
This would be a great way to finally get your images from your SKP session into an album. There are some adorable slip-in albums on the market, as well as various online retailers that will do the printing for you. In my recent organizing craze, I found some beautiful images of my kiddos from last fall that I never. had. printed. (hanging head in shame). I’ve now ordered them and am putting them into a simple slip-in album – which I should have done long ago. No more hiding in my computer hard drives – I want these photos out where I can see them all the time – and share with company. Plus I feel better having actual prints in my hand – only having my photos stored on my computer or on CD just makes me nervous!
Any questions, just ask! Ok, enough rambling – go get your CD ordered before the special runs out!

…Ok, so maybe not *forever*…but seriously, if you don’t book your mini session soon, there won’t be any left for Spring! I’ve still got a few spots for May 29th open, and I just opened up a couple extra slots for THIS Saturday. Send me an email asap if you’re interested – May is a crazy busy month for us, so I’ve only got one weekend (the 29th) for mini sessions – but – if you’re wanting a deluxe session, I can definitely squeeze you in somewhere! :)
I am loving this Spring weather…are you? Lots of bike riding, puddle jumping, buggy pushing going on around here…

Hmmm….I think I sense an idea for a fun mini-session :) If you want to get in on a Sweet & Simple session, bring your rain boots, bike, or anything else that spells S P R I N G – these are the moments that we don’t ever want to forget! :)
