SLIGHT Location CHANGE...

MEET ME ON MY MOM'S FRONT PORCH!!  ALL IS SET UP AND SO CUTE!  TOO MUDDY ON THE LAKE LOT.  103 SAVANNAH BEND, MADISON

I told you guys that I would post directions tonight.  I had originally thought that we would do them at the Lake Caroline nature area/playground, but have decided instead to do them on my parents' lake lot (still in Lake Caroline).

Use this address for your GPS ~ 103 Savannah Bend, Madison, MS

From Stribling Road ~

Take the Camden Crossing entrance (not Caroline Blvd) ~ DO NOT TAKE GARY STREET.  This is wrong on GPS.

Camden Crossing to Caroline Crossing (you will take a right onto Caroline Crossing)

Go thru 2 stop signs and then take a left on Hampton Crossing (this road goes by nature area/walking trail/playground)

Go around and turn/veer/curve right onto Caroline Blvd.

Take a left onto Lake Ridge.

Take a right onto Savannah Bend.  You will see two empty lots on your right (just past a two story home).  I will be there with everything set up.  Please pull in on the gravel drive but do NOT PARK THERE.  Park on the grass in the lot.  The gravel drive is a neighbor's and I do not want to block their driveway during mini sessions.


My CELL 601-260-5069


I will still be watching the weather and checking ground conditions.  If it's too wet, I'll post to FB and here and we will go to the yellow clubhouse.

Mini location and other information.....

Location for minis in Madison this weekend will be out at Lake Caroline.  I will be at the nature walk/playground area that is near the Hamptons.  I will post specific directions HERE on Thursday.  Please check back for that info.  If it rains ~ and it looks like it may on Friday ~ we will move the sessions over to the yellow clubhouse (near the Mermaid Cafe) and use the covered porch there.  I will put updates here and on Facebook as the day progresses but please feel free to text me on Friday if you want a quick answer.  Remember that there are NO outfit changes during mini sessions and that if you are late for the session, your session is cut short so please try to be early.  If you are early please give the person ahead of you space and do not come "watch" or "help" them in any way.  I will signal to you when it is time for you to get started.  It generally takes me about 10-15 minutes to get what I need so there is a little extra time worked in for getting settled, saying hi and making the transition. 

Let me know if you have any questions and look for the directions on Thursday.  I need to make sure I have all the street names correct.

Thanks!
Mauri

Sunday's Desoto Minis....

The sessions will be at Charleston Rowe in Hernando.   It is off 51 in Hernando.  If you put Ferguson Road on your GPS, you will find it.  Text me if you need more specific directions.

Also, the setup will have springy colors, but I will also have a set up area with more neutrals so if your outfits clash or don't match exactly, we will have an option. 



REMEMBER~~  THIS IS ALL VERY VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!  These are MINI sessions and last JUST 20 minutes.  Your session starts promptly at the time you are assigned to.  If you arrive late, your session will be shorter, if you arrive 20 minutes late, you will not get a session at all.  I will NOT force another child/children/family to wait because of other clients.  ALSO, remember if you get there early, it is quite acceptable to get out of your car and gather your children/things, fix hair, put clothes on them, etc. but remember that if another session is in progress, please keep your children back and do not "hover" while the family ahead of you is having their pictures made.  It is very distracting for me and the other kids.  IF your child has a hard time during the session, it is best to back off a bit and let me talk to him/her/them.  And, while I know extended family members are sometimes needed to come along to corral kids or help with babies, if at all possible, please try not to bring a huge crowd along with you to "watch" the session.  Again, it's very distracting.  There are absolutely NO outfit changes at mini sessions.  There is not enough time.  Sorry for all the rules, I just want for things to run smoothly and for you guys to get great pics!!!


MAKEUP DATE for Sunday, March 23rd will be April 13th.  Please watch the weather and I will let you know if we need to make up.
