WEBSITE ISSUSES

Hey guys. Please be patient with the website. Keep trying back today because your going to be amazed at what you see! I've been working hard to get it up for a couple of weeks, and finally published it yesterday. However it could take 24-48 hours for the site to be "live" and even after that I will have to work to get all my current web galleries up to the online ordering side of it all. It would be as late as next week before they are switched. So if you can not access your link and you have still yet to place your order, do not fear, you will be able to try out our new system before anyone else! I appriciate all the patience shown, as starting a business, (or website) on your own can be more than difficult. I am trying to make changes to better suit my clients and make the viewing/ordering process easier for us all. Also we are hoping the new website will be more user friendly for all of those who have never seen or heard of Carrie Jo's Photos.

Thanks again for making my dream a reality and send me some major feedback on the new site when it comes available for you to view!

I'm still here!

Wow! Where do I start? This month has been so very busy for us! I am loving every second of it, and I appreciate the patience of all my wonderful clients.

It all begins with a family of 7 for a Mother's Day shoot on Saturday May 10th in beautiful Mountain View, AR...
And then on Monday May 12th I had the pleasure of working with some old (and new) friends of mine! 5 years ago, while I was still in school for photography, I took newborn photos of Addie Grace. Addie now has 2 little sisters, Lily and Zoey. Their mom Sarah had no clue where this shoot was going when the girls started helping her touch up her make up! How cute are they?!?To all of the people who came by our set up at Fourche River Days and had Old Time Photos done - Thank you! We learned a lot this year! What tents to get and what tents not to get being one of the most important. Duck tape is an amazing thing!
The Monday Following FRD we headed out to the Baseball complex for 2 days of PYA Baseball photos! I am still working on these and will hopefully complete it all this week!
This past Tuesday Miss Alexis Hale stopped by again for her 6 month photos - What a doll!
On Wednesday I took photos of 3 more beautiful girls! I am still working on these, hope to have them up this week. - Here is a teaser!
What a blast Cassidy and I had photographing the Beavers wedding this past Saturday! I haven't even seen all the photos yet (we worked with film and digital!) but I can't wait to see them all!
Here's one I went all artsy on... Allison and her Dad...
And last, but defiantly not least, today we celebrated my son Jackson's 3rd birthday! It turned into be a surprise party, which was just so much fun for everyone! Here are just a few...
Surprise! (sporting his new shades Granddad got him) It's cool to be 3!
He blew them all out on his own!
That's all for now! I hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day! I will be taking the day off to spend with the kiddos! Be back at it on Tuesday!

Thank you for stopping by!

Senior Photo

Carlene - Senior 2008
Taken at Mtn. View City Park


So, once again another week has gone by. I've got so much new stuff to show you all! I just have to find the time to get it put up here! I am also working hard on designing new brochures and I am about to release a new price guide for this year. You can't possibly image the time it takes for me to design all of this stuff! But I want it to always be original! That's one thing that sets Carrie Jo's Photos apart from the rest.
Speaking of, I have set my myspace to private for various reasons. Unfortunatley now you must add Carrie Jo's Photos as a friend to view the profile and access my pics. I hate it for ya, but it's something I had to do. You can also just keep coming back to the website for more info, b/c it won't be long before it has been transformed again into something I can't even begin to tell you about now!
I am now booking for class of 2009 Seniors! I have already booked 2 this month! I have a special going on right now, listen to 101.7 for more information on how YOU could recieve $50 bucks off of your senior photos! (Or call me personally for more info!!!)

I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has been there for me through all of this. It's so nice to ALREADY have returning clients and have other fellow photographers I can call on for help! I love you all and you have made my life so enjoyable!
