The "First Fifty" Promotion Details!

I ran a promotion on my facebook page that ended yesterday. The deal was, for the first fifty Floridians to "like" my page, I would do a promotion with them. Last night I hit 50 and the number continues to rise. I'm so thrilled about this and thankful for the support of the first fifty, and the support of those to come!

For the first fifty, here is your promo deal!

1. I like BOGO (Buy One Get One) deals, and so I assume everyone else does too! With this promo, if you buy a session (family, portrait, just because, whatev'!), either
                a. You buy that photo session (of equal or greater value) and get another free to give to a friend (which would make you an awesome friend!) OR
                b. You and the friend can split the diff and each pay half the price. The payment to me has to  be in full, as if you were buying an entire session, but you guys can work it out amongst  yourselves however you would like.
              2. More details: You have from now until May 30th (about 3 months) to get the pictures done BUT you must BOOK BY March 15th in order to use the promo.
              3. How do you book? You can book by emailing me: BLongPhotography@yahoo.com; messaging me at Brittany Long on facebook, or calling me at 321-704-6873. Please, when booking, include 2-3 days and times that would work for you, your phone number, and your email address.
            4. Prices: In case you haven't had a chance to check out prices, here is the info!

-With all shoots, there is a 25$ booking fee to hold your spot for the day you are wanting to book. After you have paid that price, the prices are as follow:

-For a one hour portrait or couples session, the cost is 75$. You may have up to two locations, and as many clothes changes as you would like. :)
-For a two hour portrait or couples session, the cost is 125$. You may have up to three locations and as many clothes changes as you would like. :)
-For a family session, with up to 6 people, for an hour and half, the price is 100$. This is usually a good time limit for families, especially with children, as the children (and sometimes husbands! ;)) are ready to be done around the hour and half mark. If you want to add people to the session beyond the 6 person limit, you are welcome to do that for a $20 per person charge.

Oh the Places You Will Go...

God is good and has been faithful to me even when I have been less than faithful. I am so thankful to be in a position where I can be doing what I love and what I'm good at. If you're here, you're either admiring my photography (thanks!) and wondering about what I offer, or you like looking at blogs, or my blog. Either way, thanks for stopping by! If you're in the first category, here is the information you seek:

The pictures I take include:

*Baby Pictures
*Children Portraits
*Couples Pictures
*Engagement Pictures
*Family Pictures
*Just Because Portraits
*Roommate Pictures
*Senior Portraits
*Wedding Photos

I have a photoshoot Friday, Saturday, and Sunday coming up... all of which I'm super excited about! So keep checking the blog and facebook page (Brittany Long Photography!) to see the new photos! :)

Apartment 456 in Savannah, GA

My old roommates (Bethney, Katalina, and Jess) and I took a reunion trip and decided to go to Savannah, GA for the day. We, of course, had a blast and took a ton of pictures along the way. I love these girls and love spending time with them.  Below is Jess.


I'll post more pictures from that day later, but suffice it so say we had an enjoyable day. We all enjoyed living together and enjoy getting back together.

If you have roommates that enjoy each other's company and friendships, like we did, you may want to consider doing a roomate shoot. It's a great way to commemorate this time of your life, and also will give you some stinkin' cute pictures to hang in your apartment! For a one hour session, with 4 roommates, the total price (including the booking fee) would be $100. That's simply $25 per roommate. You'll get pictures of you and your roommates, as well as individual portraits and head shots. I mean, you get to dress in one of your favorite outfits, hang out with your friends, AND be all cute, while getting pictures for facebook and your apartment? Sounds like a good day to me :)

The Lovely Liane- a "Just Because" Shoot






The Basics: What You Need to Know about Brittany Long Photography!

Such precious moments require a photographer who understands how special these times are. You need to know if you and I will be a good fit to capture the moments that you and your loved ones will fondly look upon for years to come. My name is Brittany Long. I am a woman and wife with a passion for love and life. I love photography because I love life and remembering the different seasons of life that are so special!  I have so many photos that I've looked back on over the years and thought "I'm so glad I took a picture of that". There are so many photos that help me remember and re-enjoy the memories and moments that have helped make me who I am. I'm so glad that I have those memories to look back on. So, how about you? Are you wanting to capture this season of life, whatever season of life that might be? If so, then it sounds like we'll be a good fit!

My style of photography is... relaxed, but professional. I want you to enjoy the photoshoot. If you're not enjoying it, the pictures will show that. We'll have fun, chat, and get some fantastic pictures of you and/or your loved ones in the process!
About my tools: I use a nikon d40 for my shooting. I love this camera. I have two lenses, my favorite of which is the 55-200 lens. It is especially helpful with children, as it allows me to stand further back and let the children "do their thing". and allow their personalities to shine through. Standing further back with a lens that zooms when I need it to helps the kids to forget about the camera and interact naturally. This allows the most memorable photos because they capture the reality .

About the prices: My prices are reasonable, yet competitive. I will not only take your pictures, but will also spend a considerable time editing photos to put you, and your loved ones, as your best! The editing process generally takes 10-15 hours. The price that you pay includes the time for your photoshoot, as well as a disc with all the unedited photos, and 30-45 edited pictures that you can post to facebook, email to your family, send out in cards, or whatever you'd like to do!
My prices range depending on the type of shoot and number of people involved. My prices are subject to go up over time, however, the price that you and I agree on is the price that you will stay at.
Pricing Details:

Photo shoots do not need to be in Central Florida, however, if the location you choose is farther than 30 miles from Kissimmee, FL, there will be a fee to cover travel expenses.

-With all shoots, there is a 25$ booking fee to hold your spot for the day you are wanting to book. The prices below are in addition to the booking fee.
-For a one hour portrait or couples session, the cost is 75$. You may have up to two locations, and as many clothes changes as you would like. :)
-For a two hour portrait or couples session, the cost is 125$. You may have up to three locations and as many clothes changes as you would like. :)
-For a family session, with up to 6 people, for an hour and half, the price is 100$. This is usually a good time limit for families, especially with children, as the children (and sometimes husbands! ;)) are ready to be done around the hour and half mark. If you want to add people to the session beyond the 6 person limit, you are welcome to do that for a $20 per person charge.
-For weddings, I will be with you all day, from start to very end. We will meet together before the wedding so I know exactly what you want. The cost is 500$ for the entire day. As you look around for a photographer to book your wedding, you'll find that price to be a very good price. You need to know, however, that the good price doesnt mean it's cheap photography. You will get quality photography... for a good deal. :) Since this is an entire day event, the booking fee for a wedding is $50 and is in addition to the $500 for the wedding.

For out of state weddings and engagement sessions, contact me for more more cost details. The prices will still be reasonable, but travel and food must be factored in.

The Promo Deal- I enjoy running promos often. Because of the great prices already offered, as well as the great promotional deals, promotions or sales can not be combined or used in conjuction with other promotions or sales.
