happy holidays from csp!

happy holidays from CSP! the end of december marks the end of our package sale as well as new changes for csp in january 2010. we’re so excited for next year, the busy schedule, the fabulous clients, and the changes in not only our packages but in our professional printing company. look for more details and news next year.

*note to clients: i will be responding to e-mails during the holiday season, although probably not as quickly as usual. :) the eggnog and gingerbread slows me down a little.

thank you to all my family, friends, and clients for making 2009 a wonderful year. happy holidays!

last days of wedding package sale!

hey! hurry up and get your wedding plans on, because we’re nearing the end of our 2009 wedding package sale!

all wedding packages are 10% off if you book before december 31, 2009.

our packages and price structure will be changing starting on the first of the year (note: this will not alter the price or package of clients who booked prior to 2010). since most clients book wedding vendors in january and feburary for the year, we are offering this 10% off incentive til 12/31/2009 for the following reasons:

1. you’re booking early. congratulations! you’ve got your stuff together. you’re ahead of the pack. your wedding is in 2010 but you’re booking in 2009. you deserve 10% off, don’t you?

2. we’ve had a fantastic year at carolyn scott photography and love, love, love our clients! how about spreading some holiday cheer with a little 10% off?

3. you’re a smart shopper. you know how expensive wedding photography can be. but hey, i’ll give you 10% off since you recognize how awesome it is to book early.

2010 is looking busy and awesome – just how i like it. my clients seem amazing and i’m looking forward to working with each and every one of them! so join us! schedule a no-obligation in-person consult before december 23, 2009 or a phone consultation for december 24-31st, 2009 (i’ll be in pittsburgh…so unless you’re there too, we’re going to have to do this over the phone).

thanksgiving in pittsburgh.

so far i’ve been having a very relaxing december in contrast to the previous months.  geoff and i have been updating things and fixing all of the little website/business issues that need taken care of before the big january and feburary wedding booking months. we still have a long few weeks ahead before christmas – packages need restructured for the new year, fine art will be available for purchase, etc… but at least we’re now finally scratching everything off that long business to-do list before the busy booking months of late winter and the crazy madness of spring and summer. i am very excited for 2010; i have the best clients ever!

before we came back to raleigh for our incredibly productive month, we were home in pittsburgh for thanksgiving. we had to get my ring resized and, since i’m abiding by my new “walking is for suckers when it’s below 35 degrees” mindset, we drove around downtown and took some shots out the window. it was snowing and i live in the south now, so sticking my camera lens out of the window was about the best that i could do. i am so looking forward to going back for a week in christmas and getting some great shots although i’m still deciding whether or not i’ll need to bring some sort of one-piece fur-lined parka or not.

geoff and i went running this evening when it was 37 degrees (just short of my “walking is for suckers” rule) and i almost died. it took me a good 40 minutes inside before i could feel my nose again. i live in north carolina, not the arctic, but i’m starting to think i was never meant to be more than 100 miles from the equator.

pittsburgh: in all it’s rainy and smoggy glory <3

also – went to visit my cat nephews logan and sully. sully was too excited to sit still enough to pose for the camera, but logan offered to model a few:

logan likes to climb laura’s shoe rack and then sit on top of her door like this and meow at her all the time. now, i see cats all the time in funny cat pictures on the internet that sit on top of doors like this, but i’ve never seen it in person until now…it’s both adorable and ridiculous.
