Easter Storybook Live Bunny Spring Portrait Sessions Clarksville TN Children's Photography


Our 2014 Easter Portrait Sessions were a huge success, so much so that we had to add a third day to our calendar to accommodate all of our amazing clients!  We are so thankful for each and every one of you and had a fantastic weekend with you and your children!

Although we believe in the importance of your finished portrait products and the lifetime treasures they will become, which is why we do what we do, we also try to create your sessions to be a memorable experience for your children.  The children adored our cute little bunny "Jellybean" and enjoyed getting to pet him and feed him carrots.  Our gorgeous studio set was lavished in colorful fresh spring flowers!  After lots of smiles and giggles for the camera, children were delighted to be presented with yummy gourmet cupcakes from the best place in town, The Sweetest Batch Cupcakery!

With the assistance of our trained and courteous staff, parents were able to instantly view and choose their favorite images, and quickly and efficiently place their orders and checkout after their session.  This allows us to expedite the turnaround time on delivery of orders so we can get your portraits back to you as quickly as possible! We know you are very excited to share with friends and family!  Items will be carefully and beautifully packaged in decorative gift bags when you pick them up from the studio, a special touch offered only at Daphne's Portrait Design!

Please enjoy the images below from our recent Easter sessions, just a few of our many favorites!







If you didn't make it to this year's annual Easter Storybook Portrait Session, it's still a great time for spring outdoor portraits!  Please call the studio to reserve your appointment at (931) 647-0860 and visit us online at www.daphnesportraitdesign.com.
