Welcome to my blog - it's here that I share some of my most recent work - be sure to check back often!! Kathleen Chapman Photography specializes in child and family photography in the North Country NY counties of Franklin and St.Lawrence in locations such as St. Regis Falls, Brushton, Malone, Massena and Potsdam. I offer studio and on location sessions designed to meet your creative vision!!
Pre-K/Kindergarten Graduation Mini Sessions
Sessions are $50 for 3 digital images and will be about 10 minutes long. If you want your child to wear a cap and gown in your school colors you can order them from Amazon. I have both a royal blue and red cap and gown that can be used if you don’t have one. The cap and gown will be sanitized with Lysol spray after each use.
To book a session email me at [email protected] with Graduation Mini in the subject line and indicate the date and time you prefer, the background you want and the name of the child to be photographed. Full payment (via Paypal) of the $50 session fee is required to book your session and get on my calendar.

COVID-19 Mini Session Precautions
1. All sessions will be at least 2 hours apart to allow me time to sanitize high touch surfaces (door knobs, props, stair rail, etc.)
2. I will wear a clear face shield during the session and ask that everybody age 3 and over wear a mask when not being photographed.
Can't believe this is my final grid for 2020 and that I completed my 3rd picture a day project!! I thoroughly enjoyed this project but have decided I won't be starting one for 2021 - planning to focus my attention on other goals this year.
I had so much fun finishing up Christmas Mini's sessions this month and enjoyed decorating and having the tree and Christmas lights to photograph. Missed getting everybody together for Christmas this year and am praying hard that next year will be different. I'm thankful for the what we do have and the celebrations we had even though they were different.
Below are my 12 grids for 2020 all in one place - so fun to look through and see the changing of the seasons and the memory that each picture brings!!

And just like that November 2020 passed us by. Can't believe I only have 31 days remaining in my 366 Project - crazy! Haven't decided if I'll do one for 2021 - time will tell. It was a busy month with outdoor Christmas Mini Sessions. I decided against studio sessions this year because of Covid and had so much fun doing them outside. Celebrate Cole's 9th birthday and shed some tears remembering Mom and Dad on their birthdays this month - miss them dearly but so grateful for their love and all the treasured memories. We all celebrated Thanksgiving separately but came together for our first family Zoom call. Praying next year things will be back to normal and we can all celebrate together.

I just love the colors of Fall! We took our Fall swing picture, took a trip to visit Beck and Rick in Cape Cod, celebrated Amanda's birthday and I said goodbye to my beautiful Country Garden as I prepared it for winter.
