The White Sale

From January 9 - 13, 2007 we will be holding our annual White Sale.
As usual there will be no charge for the sitting fee, a savings of $89.95. Children will be photographed in a high key setting in studio.

Come to the studio and I will personally hand them to you, first come first served. See you all there and Happy New Year.

Chris's Random Thoughts

It has been awhile and I am sorry, but now I'm ready to share some holiday cheer. Just a few things to share with you this week.
- In Canada I feel we have one major problem, we do not support Canadian content. We only look to what they are doing in the States. But we have a lot of great people doing great things. So go out and support them, when you go buy a book get one by Mordecai Richler a great author who is no longer with us. When you need a new C.D get one by the Tragically Hip or Nelly Furtado. When you want a new DVD get "the Sweet Hereafter" directed by Atom Egoyan. When you want to laugh, anything by Russell Peters will do. For something funky get "the Hilarious house of Frightenstein" on DVD, really cool and really weird. I was waiting for that to come on DVD so bad. In conclusion watch these two T.V shows "The Hour" with George Stroumboulopaulos on CBC and "Rent A Goalie" on Showcase.
- Still with television, I want my own reality T.V show. When Flava Flav has had 3 something is wrong, my dog has more personality then he does.
- Bring Dave Chappelle back, please!!!
- My raptors are making noise boys and girls and soon a championship is on the horizon.
- Favorite Simpson line of all time is by the immortal Homer Simpson. "I'm not a praying man, but please, please Superman save me"
- So they had a little Brawl in New York last week at the Knicks and Nuggets game. If I am Carmelo Anthony I would find a rock a crawl under it. Nice punch Carmela.
- Some last minute Christmas gift ideas for you. For the sports fan, #7 from Manchester United or #17 from Portugal Burgundy or black. For the woman in your life, anything with the words "Spa" and "Getaway". For the man in your life, Money. We're big fans of money. For the person who has everything, Studio Cabral gift certificates. Check out their website www.studiocabral.com
- See you all next time.

Cassandra's Communion Photos

The last few days we have been really busy with the Christmas rush that I haven't been able to post anything. Last Saturday Cassandra came by to have her communion photos taken. Although communion photos are traditionally taken during the spring months, it is good to have them done early.

We are taking bookings now for communion photos for the new year. So to avoid disappointment in not having the time and day that is good for you and your child give us a call.
The days and times are starting to fill up fast, especially for April and May.

Santa

Santa passed by today for his yearly visit to Studio Cabral and just like that he was gone and heading back home to the North Pole. To all of those who had pictures taken and dropped of donations for the Bloorcourt Village B.I.A toy drive we thank you. To all of those who couldn't make it, don't worry Santa will be back next year.
