When our son Noah was born in March of 2001, it was the most important day of our lives. It just seemed too important
to spread the word with a plain old store bought announcement. I thought about baby announcements I have received from other people, and I realized that I never quite know what to do with them after it has had its stay on the refrigerator. Do I put it in a drawer? Throw it away? Tuck it in the back of a photo album? I didn't want people wondering the same thing about Noah's announcement, so I wanted something that would be worth keeping. I decided to take on the task myself, and designed his announcement. People seemed to like the size, the appearance, and also that they were able to put it into a photo album with other family pictures.

How can I do this for you? It's simple:

I will come to your Charlotte County home and take pictures of your baby until we have the perfect shot. You can preview and choose your pose right there. You can decide on the message of your baby's announcement, the style, and what type of envelope you would like. Then, I take your information home and custom design a photo-announcement for you. The design will be approved by you before your order is completed. After you approve the proof, order the number of cards and envelopes you desire (30 minimum please). When your order is complete, I will deliver the announcements to your home.

I can also work from a photo that you already have. You will just need to email it to me (uncompressed) or send it to me via US Mail (contact me for more information).

I also offer extra services, such as putting all of the photos I take onto a Compact Disc so that you can view them on your computer, or email them to friends and family. I can also create a framable 5X7 or 8X10 "parent's keepsake" that has your baby's photo and birth information on it (matting available).

My specialty is birth announcements, but I can also create personalized:

wedding announcements
graduation announcements
party invitations
thank you notes
baby/bridal showers
engagement announcements
open house invitations
pet photos
holiday greeting cards
reunions
moving announcements
personalized stationery
Baptism/Christening
photo-touch up/restoration
cut and paste photos (I can put you and a friend who haven't seen eachother in to the same photo!)

If there is something else you have in mind, just ask and I might be able to accommodate your needs.
