An era is ending for me...yes, the rumors are true...we are very sadly leaving Brooklyn! We will be moving at the end of the month. But more on that later.
Because I'm leaving I'm running a "Good Bye for now NYC" sale.
Family sessions for up to six people will be on sale for 650 dollars (my normal rate is 800 so it is 150 dollars less!). This includes a two hour session at a location of your choice in Manhattan or Brooklyn, a full resolution CD of 25-30 edited images, along with a written letter with my approval to have them printed wherever you like. I'm not a big fan of charging 250 dollars for a session and then charging 50 for one 4x6 print that seems to be so popular with family photographers right now. At that rate you would only get 6 4x6 from a session for the same price as my sale price. I'd rather have you own all your photographs so that you can print them however you would like, wherever you would like!
Couple and Engagement sessions will only be 500 dollars! I love, love photographing engagements and couples! This includes a two hour session at a location of your choice in Manhattan or Brooklyn, and a full resolution CD of 25-30 edited images, along with a written letter with my approval to have them printed wherever you like.
I have very limited space available for new clients so please email me as soon as possible if you would like to book a session in the last week of June! Cstringhamphoto@aol.com
Also, I will be back in October for one week if you are interested in having portraits taken in the fall. NYC is lovely then and I will be booking them this month as well. I have room for 4 more sessions, so hurry if you want to book a fall session!
yay! you did your chalk board idea shoot!!! and it's fabulous!
i am sad just reading this because i now know what it's like to be leaving manhattan. are you guys heading to dc at all beforehand??

My Husband and I are coming to NYC in August and I would have sooo loved to have a couples session with you. We may be going back in October for my mom's 60th. Please keep us updated on your whereabouts:)

Dear Candice,
I can't wait for your "Oh Shoot!" class in September. Count me IN! Are you moving somewhere nice I hope? :-)
Posted by: Jacqueline M. Schimmel | June 10, 2009 at 06:48 AM
I think everyone wants to know where the Stringhams are heading? Please tell!!
I am also looking forward to you "Oh Shoot!" class in september, boy do I need it. Those silly auto settings. :)
Posted by: Abbiejsmith | June 10, 2009 at 07:46 AM
Candice, your work is so pretty and unique! I wish I was up there so you could take some photos of me! :-)
Posted by: Kayla | June 10, 2009 at 09:22 AM
OK... where in the world are the Stringham's going? Any chance you are moving back to Louisville and I can become your assistant? I am going to do an engagement photo shoot in the next few weeks and am scared to death!!! I might have to steal your chalkboard idea! Oh and maybe balloons too!
Posted by: Shannon | June 10, 2009 at 10:50 PM
Will you have another portraint photo class with JessicaSprague.com? I missed out on the May class and would really like to take your class. Is there any way you could have this as a web-class?

All my NYC blog friends are leaving NYC! I can't wait to see where you end up and your adventures. I loved the portrait class and look forward to any other classes you teach at Jessica Sprague that I can manage to take. I wish I was coming to NYC...I'd scrape the $ together for a photoshoot for sure!
Posted by: Alicia W. | June 15, 2009 at 06:30 PM
Can't wait to hear where you are heading! Hopefully closer to the other coast so I can book a sessin with you! Hope your move goes well!
Posted by: Jennifer Wolff | June 20, 2009 at 02:10 PM
Gosh!! How I wish we could go there and have a session with you. I wish you the best in your new adventure.
Posted by: JOAN | June 23, 2009 at 06:37 AM
Is it true you're coming to Texas! I sure hope so!!! We'd be lucky to have you!
Posted by: Dana J | June 25, 2009 at 11:00 AM
OK, it's been a month and no word. I am getting a deja vu from last summer all over again. I can only imagine how hard it must be with little ones and moving, but can you just do a two line "hey, we are OK" post so we, your blog fans/friends, know you are ok?
Posted by: Irene | July 06, 2009 at 10:11 AM
Just read your latest CK article and I *heart* bangers and mash, too! It's a staple at our house, and I am in no-way English; but I wish I was for that sexy accent! Good luck on the move and love the chalkboard photos!
Posted by: Sara Carns | July 06, 2009 at 01:26 PM
Candice.....you're gonna get the deserted blogger award....ha.
Are you REALLY coming to Texas??????? I'll help you unpack!!! ha. (We could only be so lucky!) Where? Where?
