Children
The children session is geared toward creating a natural and fun experience for the
children. We are not a big box studio that is intimidating for a child to enter. Imagine
entering a studio that has a waiting area that resembles the doctor's office. As a child,
that first impression is scary and ruins their entire experience at the studio. John's
Photography has a waiting area that resembles a living room, therefore the children
are comfortable and relaxed. They have toys to play with and will not be afraid of the
studio.
Our goal is to capture the true personality of your child/children. They will feel at home
playing with their toys and us. These priceless moments become a true work of art to
last a lifetime.
Please email us and ask to be put on our children mailing list to stay up to date with
our current specials and upcoming events.
The 7 Ages of Childhood
Parents often ask us when they should have their children photographed
professionally.
There are seven significant growth milestones in every child's life when the occurence
of subtle physical changes take place inching them ever so closer to adulthood.
Portraits, which capture forever special moments in our lives, taken at these particular
times in our children's lives can serve to tell their stories. They become a significant
part of the heritage of both the child and his/her family.
Professional portrait artists are quite capable of capturing the spirit and vitality of
children at these special moments in their lives. You, as a loving parent, will never
regret having preserved these moments forever.
The 7 Ages of Childhood are:
At 6 months your baby is cuddly, alert, responsive, and still completely dependent on
the family.
At One Year your child is still a baby, but quickly growing and beginning to take on
permanent facial characteristics that reveal his/her character and family likeness.
At age Two your child has begun to speak, think, reason, and explore almost
everything.
Age Four is my favorite age to create portraits of kids. They're cute and independent
with their own unique personalities and interests.
At age Seven the permanent teeth are coming in nicely and the face starts to take on a
more mature look.
Age Twelve marks the end of childhood and the emergence into the teen years. The
child that you have loved for what seems to be such a short time is about to embark on
a new and exciting chapter in his/her life. For many parents this represents the last
chance at capturing some essence of the little kid.
At Sixteen years of age the girl blossoms into womanhood and the boy is nearly a
man. They mature differently, but each anticipates the challenges that await them in
the future. They're still growing, but they are never to be children again.
BRAND NEW FOR 2007-
The Baby Plan(Follow this link to learn more)
The Baby Plan a series of photographs taken during a baby's first year of growth. This
is at the stages of 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months. At the end of the
baby's year, we present the mom and dad with a panel (or mat - for lack of a better
description) of the 4 photographs they picked out at each stage we photographed
during the year.

During the month of October, we will be having a Back to School Photo
Special. Bring your child here for their school photos. We will spend more than ten
seconds with your child and you will choose your photos from proofs, rather than
purchasing your photos blindly. We shoot it right the first time, and will provide your
child with a fun experience for their school photos. They will have more variety than
those photos taken at the school. We want your child to look their best in their photos
and we want you to be happy with the portraits we take. Our photos will reflect your
child's personality.
