Trip to Jackson ~ Old Capitol :: Batesville Portrait Photographer

If you didn't guess the last post, it's a doorknob from the "Old Capitol" in Jackson.  I thought it was pretty neat, so I had my official bag holder to take a picture of it.  The following pictures are some we took while visiting the "Old Capitol".  I keep referring the "Old Capitol" as the "Old Capitol", because that's just what it is! I have pictures I'll be posting next from the "New Capitol".  If you ever want a FREE informative history lesson, please take a day to go down to our State's capital and check it out! We didn't get a chance to tour the "New Capitol" or the Governor's Mansion, but I can assure you, that's NEXT on our "to visit" list.


This is one of the "laws" we noticed hasn't changed that much.... If you can read it, it basically says, ...if you kill on purpose or with malice, you are found guilty of manslaughter... If further says, ...if you kill someone by 'accident' or in defending you or your family, you shall NOT be found guilty....

Don't you just LOVE the detail work in these next few pictures?





We visited with our little buddies, Andrea and Lindsey.  Andrea and J had their little notebooks they purchased at the Mississippi Children's Museum, and they made a TON of notes! It nearly blew my mind that even though they're not in school, that they wanted to learn!!!!





Hope you've enjoyed our "mini tour".  Maybe it will convince you to go and check it out for yourself!!

Portraiture Investment :: Batesville Portrait Photographer

Good evening!  I want to thank everyone for all of the positive comments that we have been receiving both by word of mouth and facebook alike!  We truly enjoy the fun and fellowship with each person and family that we have had the privilege of photographing.

Recently, we have had several inquiries as to what we charge for our services.  So, now is a great time for us to get this bullie out of our way! lol

Sitting Fee.........$40 (Upto 4 subjects; $10 each additional person)

Print Pricing.......

5x7...................$6 (a 5x7 is the smallest size image we will have printed with the exception of wallets).
8x10.................$12
11x14...............$25
16x20...............$50
Wallets.............$12 (sheet of 8 die cut wallets)

For prints larger than a 16x20, or for canvas prints, pricing will be available upon request.

Blog impromptu photos.... digital images can be purchased at a cost of $20/each or prints can be purchased at the cost above.  There is no sitting fee for these, as these are just impromptu photos.

We can put upto 50 un-edited proof images, which contain the Karen Brown Photography watermark, on a CD at a cost of $40, with an initial portraiture investment of $60.

We can put upto 12 edited images, which do not contain the Karen Brown Photography watermark, on a CD at a cost of $150.  You do not have to make a print purchase to order an edited CD.

The sitting fee is due at the time of the shoot.  Once photos have been taken, we will post them in a private gallery with a password of your choice for your review on our SmugMug website.  Once you pick the images you wish to be edited and sizes chosen, you will be responsible for payment of 50% of your total amount due before any prints are ordered.

Batesville First UPC Sounds of Christmas 2010 :: Batesville Portrait Photographer

Tonight we beheld Batesville First UPC's 2010 Songs of Christmas program.  Everyone did an absolutely Awesome job!  We had praise singing, solo's, and scriptures read about the birth of our Lord Jesus.  We are so blessed to have such a talented group of individuals that Love the Lord with all their heart.  The dedication really shows.

Now, on to the sneak peak of some of my favorite pics of the night, in no particular order.  There will be more to come in the next week, so stay tuned and check back often!!  Hope you enjoy.
