I'm experimenting with a new location for portrait photography in September - The Confederate Memorial Park in Marbury, AL.
Confederate Memorial Park is the site of Alabama's only Old Soldiers Home for Confederate Veterans. In operation from 1902 to 1939, the home cared for elderly veterans, and wives and widows of veterans. The site included 22 buildings consisting of cottages, a hospital, dairy barn, mess hall, an elaborate water and sewage system, and Memorial Hall, an administration building which held offices, a library, and a large auditorium. The home served between 650 and 800 residents. The majority of veterans served in Alabama outfits, but many were from other Confederate states and moved to Alabama after the war. The last veteran died at the home in 1934. The facility closed in 1939 when the five remaining widows were moved to Montgomery for better care.
Features of the 102-acre site:
. two cemeteries
. Mountain Creek Post Office
. Marbury Methodist Church
. nature trail
. covered pavilions
These sessions will be the best price of any offered this fall and there are only 4 slots still available.

Mini Sessions Coming This Fall!
What's a "Mini Session?"
A regular photo session is sixty to ninety minutes in length and at the location of your choice. Mini sessions are conducted at a specific location and are twenty-five minutes in length. Because I can stay in one location and accept several clients on the same day, I can offer the mini sessions at a substantial savings over a regular photo session. The mini sessions include an online gallery for ordering with 2-for-1 prints for 30 days after the gallery is released to the owner.
Dates, times and places for the Fall 2008 mini-sessions will be released this week to those who have signed up for my newsletter. After they've had first pick of times, then the remaining openings will be posted on the blog. So, if you haven't signed up for the newsletter, now is the time!
