This is not an easy post to write. I've put it off for 10 months or more.

Christmas Eve 2019 I accepted the position as Event Coordinator at Lost Valley. In February 2020 I bought a second photobooth, excited to grow that part of my business after a record year in 2019.

I knew that something would have to give with a new full-time position and the growth of my other business. I also had been feeling a bit burnt out, I was tired of explaining why my prices were what they were to new clients. Or why they should hire me if their phones took pictures just as well. I know that many of my regulars saw the value in their portraits, and I appreciate that. But something had to give as my time commitments were growing and my passion for shooting was wasting away.

Then COVID hit, this was an easy out for why I wasn't shooting. But now with the holiday season upon us and many people reaching out about sessions I can't use that excuse anymore.

There are many many families in this area and beyond who I have enjoyed watching grow over the years. This will be the first year in a long time where some littles won't have their photos taken by "Miss Kait". I feel like I'm writing a break up post and am really sad that this has to happen, but it has to happen. I am closing down KaitLavin Photography and won't be shooting anymore. (That was a very difficult sentence to write.)

I do have access to many of the past sessions I have done over the years, so as one last hurrah if there are past sessions that you never got around to ordering prints of or digitals from now is the time to do it. As a going away gift I will be offering these at extremely low costs. Reach out to me if you are looking for photos from old sessions and I can re-activate them online for you to view and purchase. This offer goes through the end of 2020.

And since I have been sitting here typing this through tears show me some love on this post as to some of your favorite memories with me.

Heart aches for those Seniors missing their proms coming up!

I have the ability to run 2 virtual photobooths at a time where kids could get dressed up on a certain day, take a photo of themselves, text a photo to provided number and the image gets sent back to them in a designed template. They all get added to a gallery where people can purchase prints and I can create a slideshow out of the images with messages from parents, teachers and coaches.

I can do this for other virtual events as well. If you know of any schools that may be interested please send them my way!

This would have been my 5th year hanging out at Gritty McDuff's Auburn for St. Patrick's Day with the Photobooth (GingerSnap Rentals). COVID-19 had other plans. But we can still have fun! Send me three photos of you in your St. Patty's day gear and I will add them to this template for you and post on my GingerSnap Rentals page. No charge, just want to share some Irish Cheer during these times!! Please share!!

Would there be interest in mini virtual photography lessons for kiddos (or adults)?

If so, what topics would you like covered?

COVID-19 update. CMMC has paused vendor access for the time being. This means no newborn photography for the foreseeable future.
