Autumn Hull Photography

It's A Facebook Party!!

Do You Facebook?  Want a great profile picture?

In honor of our brand-new Facebook pages for Autumn Hull Photography & Autumn Hull Seniors, we are hosting a Facebook Party!

Who needs a Facebook profile?  Students, professionals, moms, dads, grandparents, anyone!

Monday, July 27th, anytime from 9am to 4pm.  No appointment necessary, just drop on by!

We'll shoot a quick, 5-10 minute session to give you the the perfect profile picture for your own Facebook page.  You can also use them for MySpace, Twitter, or any social networking sites. 

Are you fun, serious, quirky, professional, passionate, scary, young, mean, unique, sexy, boring, anti-social, a bit odd, or just downright weird?  Say it with your profile picture!



We'll shoot all day on Monday, then post all of the images on our Facebook page all week for all of you to download and copy to your profile page.

How much will it cost?  That depends on how popular you are!

Come by yourself...$20
Come with a friend...$15
Bring two friends...$10
Bring three friends...$5
Bring four friends.... $0!

Your friends will pay the full $20 price, unless they bring people as their friend, then they can get the discount as well.  It's kind of like a pyramid scheme, but a lot more fun.

So bring a friend and have them bring a friend and have their friend bring a friend.  It's social networking at it's best.  Because what use are friends unless they can get you free stuff?

Studio Sale Open House

Wednesday, July 29th 9am-6pm

So now that we are moving (read the article below for details), we won't need all the furniture in here, or the beautiful samples adorning our walls.

On Wednesday, July 29th we are having an Open House Studio Sale, from 9am to 6pm.

If you have sample images of your children on our walls or on our shelves, come on by and take a look.  Some of the samples are going up for display in local businesses, but you can have first pick if you'd rather take them home with you!  All of the samples are either framed or on canvas, so you can take them home and hang them right on your walls.  We also have collages, purses, jewelry, albums, and more.  Samples are available at 1/2 price from our normal price list. 

All of our furniture is available for sale... after Wednesday, it's going on eBay!  All of the furniture in the studio is brand-new, purchased for the studio last year, and comes from Thomasville, Pottery Barn, California Closets, or is custom made.



Everything in our kids' play area is available, including the Land of Nod toy storage bookcase, the chocolate velvet mini-couch, the Pottery Barn Carolina table & chairs, and the ultra-popular kitchen playset with all the accessories. 

In the Baby Station, we have a beautiful brand-new Pottery Barn changing table in perfect condition with the matching Sabrina XL baskets and a brand new pad.  The cute wooden diaper pin wall hanging is also available.

The meeting area has a set of three bookcases from Thomasville, perfect for a media center.  Each shelf has a storage drawer underneath for dvds, games, remotes, etc. 

We are also selling our microfiber couch and swiveling circle chair.  Both were specifically purchased because they are ultra kid-friendly, as they are stain-resistant and clean very easily.

In the entry, we have a sofa table/console from Thomasville, with a glass top revealing a display shelf below. 

We are also selling our huge 7-piece desk wall unit from Thomasville.  This is a beautiful set that includes a desk with a storage hutch, two cabinets with storage hutches above, and a matching wooden chair.  All the pieces are from Thomasville, from their Worklife collection, and they can be rearranged in a variety of layouts.

In our shooting room, we have brand-new custom cabinets from California Closets in their Chocolate Pear finish.  These are attached to the wall, so they would need to be disassembled and reinstalled in your space.

Last is our custom-built buffet with a cool rustic finish.  There are three drawers and three sliding glass-paneled doors.  It's a one-of-a-kind cabinet, and my favorite piece in the studio, but there is just no room for it at home!

We are also thinning out our collection of custom tutus, hats, wings, and other studio props. 

Also, in the year we've been in the retail space, my garage has been taken over by twin stuff that we no longer need, like 2 cribs, 2 high chairs, a double and single jogging stroller, baby monitors, a baby gate, and other twin baby stuff.  That's all gotta go to make room for the studio, so it's all for sale as well.  Got a baby (or two!) on the way, we've got you covered!

Come on by the studio anytime from 9am to 6pm on Wednesday the 29th.  No need to call, just stop in.  First come, first served!!

We are moving!

In our current economy, so many families have to forgo custom portraiture so they can live within their budgets.  Many of our clients have expressed regret at not being able to come in as often as they like, or take home as many of the images they've fallen in love with.

As much as we wanted to lower our prices to accommodate the realities of our new economy, our increased overhead due to the new studio space just didn't allow it.

We've decided to move the studio back home, where it was for almost a decade prior to our move into a retail space last year.  This will allow us to lower our overhead significantly, which in turn will allow us to offer our services to your family at a price that won't break the budget.

What does this mean for you? 

First, and best of all, the decrease in overhead means lower prices on our sessions.  Our full session fee is dropping from $250 down to $150, and our mini sessions are dropping from $125 down to $95. 

Our studio sessions will take place in the garage studio I've used for years, or for an additional fee, we can come to you!  For the first time ever, we are offering an in-home service where we set up our studio in your home or garage.  This will make newborn sessions so much easier, as you won't even have to leave your house to capture those fleeting first days.  Fees will vary depending on location.

I'll still be working with our talented Associate Photographers, which allows us to offer so much more than just family portraits.  With so many backgrounds and specialties, we can offer other types of services.  We now offer commercial photography for products, offices, restaurants, buildings, you name it.  We also shoot events and weddings, headshots for actors and models, Senior portraits, executive headshots for professionals, and so much more. 

As we speak, we are getting ready to launch an exciting new offshoot, Pin-Ups by Portlyn (one of our ultra-fabulous Associate Photographers), featuring glamorous retro portraiture shot in the style of 1940's pin up artists.  Watch your inbox for details as we progress! 

Another change as the result of the move is the process of viewing and ordering images from your session.  We will no longer have in-person ordering sessions.  We will return to online ordering, which will allow you to share the slideshow of images with your friends and family.   Now you can view and order your images from the comfort of your own home, on your schedule.

We will also eliminate our minimum order requirement for cds of digital files of your session.  We know how much you love to archive your own images, be able to print them whenever you want, and share them with family.  We will return to our previous low prices for retouched and print-ready digital files on CD.

We will be moving at the end of this month, right after our Christmas In July promotion ends.  Our new prices and procedures will be in effect starting August 1st.

We hope our new prices will allow you to come see us soon to create images that will last a lifetime.

Archive Clear-Out

Last Chance to Purchase Digital Files & Place Orders

Due to the high volume of sessions we've done since we opened the new studio, we can no longer archive images from completed sessions. We are clearing out our archives this week to make room for new images.


If you currently have images on file and want to place orders for prints, canvas, collages, handbags, jewelry, storybook albums, or any of our other products, this is the last week to place those orders.  Call our studio or email autumn@autumnhullphoto.com asap to book your View/Order appointment.  We'll project your images on the screen and help you make your order selection.

If you want to archive your own sessions, you can purchase a disk with your complete set of high-resolution, retouched, printable images. 

Our normal price for digital files is $1600 for a complete set, but they are now available for only $125 - $300 per session, depending on the number of images in your session.

You can order your archive disk via email or over the phone, and we can burn them to a disk for immediate pickup.  To order, email us or call 661-297-6951.

This offer is only available until THIS Friday, so don't wait!
