Spring Newsletter

As we round out the last few weeks of winter I am anxiously waiting for the beginning of spring and all that it has to offer. Spring doesn't only mean more sunshine, flowering plants and chirping birds. It can also be a great time to get your family photo, update your business pages on your website, capture the perfect prom photo and let's not forget graduation! There's a lot going on this time of year. I also have a few things planned out and am excited to share them with my clients and my client's friends and family.

For the second year I have been invited to The Lansing City Market as their Bunny Hop Official Photographer. You will find me right next to the bunny trail where for $5 you will receive a digital 4x6 emailed to you or for $10 you may have a custom made 4x6 print created just for you. I have such a great time at this event and I hope you can stop by! The Bunny Hop will be held on April 12, 2014 from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.

For the third year I am also the photographic coordinator for Capital City Film Festival. For this four day festival you will find me attending many of these showings and capturing the highlights of this event, including a Red Carpet free event at Troppo to kick it off. It's a great event that showcases both film and music in unique settings. If you've never tried this event you really should. You can find more information here.

This year I have decided to expand my referral program. You now can receive a $25 print credit when someone you recommend me to books and shoots with me. You also receive a $25 print credit as well as your friend or family member that books a consecutive shoot with you (either right before or after your shoot at the same location). In addition I will offer a point system. Each point is worth $5 towards either your session fee or your print costs. 

• One Point-"liking" my Ariniko Artistry Facebook Page; "sharing" my Ariniko Artistry Facebook posts (up to 3 different posts).
• Two Points- Posting a positive review on Google+; recommending a friend fill out my contact form to receive my newsletter (have them put your name in the message section).
• Four Points-Becoming an Ariniko Artistry Ambassador and actively promoting my services (you get an additional point for each session booked and shot). This is perfect for high school students.
• Ten Points- Book six or more friends or family for a "More is Merrier" group glamour shoot. This is the perfect bachelorette party, girls night out party, birthday party or really any time you want to get dressed up and have a fun and exciting glamorous photo session with your friends and family.
