After spending the past year on the sidelines due to multiple shoulder surgeries, I am finally getting back into the swing of things. With that also comes a new website and a new home for my handmade shop! Instead of having several different sites, everything is now connected via WiseIdeaStudios.com — the blog, the handmade shop, and the portrait photography site. This will make it easier for me to stay organized, for loyal customers to stay updated, and for new customers to get information.
I currently have session times open in November and December. Sessions times are available in the evenings on Fridays and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. To request information or setup a session time, please contact me at: info@wiseideaportraits.com. There is also information available on my portrait photography site. Here’s a portrait of my niece from a session I was able to do with her earlier this year. I cannot believe she’s 3 – how the time does fly!

Starting this fall, there will also be a more regular schedule of releasing new handmade items – specifically hair accessories and greeting cards. Ready-to-ship items will be posted in the new handmade shop, but I will also continue to take custom orders. The first release of handmade items will take place this week!
I am also a vendor for the wonderful frames made by The Organic Bloom! Portrait customers can order these frames with their prints, but the frames are also available outside of portrait sessions as well. If you have never seen a frame from The Organic Bloom, you are missing out on a fantastic product. With over a dozen different frame styles, 3 different builds, and over 50 colors to choose from, ANYONE can find the perfect frame for any room or occasion. They even have little ornament frames that are great for gift giving or tree decorating – a great idea for the upcoming holiday season! Head over to the OB album on my Facebook fan page to check out the different options. Credit for the frame photo below belongs to The Organic Bloom.

To celebrate being back in action and the launch of the new website, I will be giving away (1) 8×10 single stack frame from The Organic Bloom! The winner will get to customize the frame by choosing the style and color. To enter the giveaway and be eligible for a chance to win, please follow the following giveaway rules.
