pixels on paper’s amazing clients | 2012 review in photos
We are so very delayed in completing a blog post that recaps the photos of our client’s and friends from 2012. You can’t possibly understand how difficult it is to look back through every photo session from last year and pick favorites. It’s February but it’s also better late than never! We continue to feel incredibly blessed that so many each and every year trust us to photograph and capture the most important memories of their lives. We met some amazing people, felt like a part of so many of these people’s lives, and more often than not were right there along side of them having just as much fun. We gained numerous friendships last year. 2012 brought engagement pics, wedding pictures, senior portraits, family portraits, newborn photography, photos of children, pet pics, and commercial photography. We even added studio portraits for the first time in the history of Pixels On Paper! We are inpatient when it comes to figuring out what 2013 will bring and excited about the photographs we will capture.
The following are our personal favorite images from each of those we photographed in 2012. Enjoy the view!
If you have a special photo project in mind for Pixels On Paper during 2013 you can contact us through the blog or see more of our photos at www.pixelsonpaper.biz.

Pixels on Paper, Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash donate pet food, needed items to Wilkes Animal Shelter Partnership results in more than 560 pounds of pet food donated
Pixels on Paper Photography, with the help of its many loyal customers and Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash, donated more than 560 pounds of pet food and other pet supply items to the Wilkes Animal Shelter.
The items were collected December 8 and 9 when Pixels on Paper offered free, pet portrait sessions to clients who donated a minimum 15 pound bag of dry pet food to the shelter. During the two-day event, Pixels on Paper scheduled 20 pets (cats and dogs) in its studio, located at 1198 Curtis Bridge Rd., Wilkesboro. Clients from as far away as Charlotte, N.C., participated. In addition to pet food, participants also donated blankets, towels and bleach.
In partnership, Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash matched the food donations that were contributed and gave all contributing pet owners a voucher for a free pet toy.
The collected items were delivered by Misty & Ryan Case of Pixels On Paper and Kim Hatfield of Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash.

Below are photos of all that participated in Pixels On Paper’s Christmas pet portrait sessions. Without their donations this fundraiser would not have been a success. We’re grateful to have photographed so many adorable pets. Thank you with all our hearts!
It is with great sadness that poor Foster (shown above left with his owners) lost his battle to a long term illness on 1/14/13. We are grateful to have photographed him prior to his passing so that his owner’s will have lasting memories of the enjoyment he brought to their lives.
If you are interested in having photos made of or with your pet, our Wilkesboro NC portrait studio is pet-friendly or we photograph on location in their natural environment. You can contact us through the blog or see more of our photos at www.pixelsonpaper.biz.

halloween mini sessions | pixels on paper portrait studio | nc mountain children’s photographer
Hard to believe that Fall is here and Halloween is literally just around the corner. It’s OCTOBER ALREADY! In regards to some aspects we’re blown away with how quickly this year has gone by but then it seems a little slower with regards to others (think studio construction).
The BIG news? We are only a matter of weeks away from officially moving into the new studio! We’ll still be shooting on location anywhere and everywhere you can imagine. But the best part is that we will not be in search of indoor locations during the winter months. And we’re really really excited about all the cool backdrops we get to design and stuff that’s going to be re-purposed.
The new studio address:
1198 Curtis Bridge Rd., Wilkesboro NC if you use GPS 1198 Johnson Lane seems to be the key.
Note that initially we will be open by appointment only.
Since we’re already working at the studio, and it’s Halloween time, and you have cuties dressed as a vampires, zombies, princess, super heros and some of you have fur-babies dressed as hot dogs, ghosts and Yoda (you know you’ve seen that one) or whatever they may be… bring them to the Pixels On Paper portrait studio on October 31st between 3pm-7pm for a quick mini-shoot! Sessions will be outdoors (just like the ones in the picture) and be about 15 minutes in length. The fee is $15 for up to 3 children. More than 3, the fee is $10 per additional child. You will receive online viewing of the pictures, and a special 10% off print rate.
Rates for Halloween prints before the discount:
Set of 8 wallets: $10 | 5×7: $12 | 8×10: $20 | 11×14 mounted on styrene: $40
Want to know the best part? Simply bring in your receipt from the session when you reserve your spot for your family session and you will receive $25 off your session fee for your family portrait session! Essentially, you are getting this Halloween session free!
The fine details: First come, first serve. Children and pets must be in costumes. This is not a family session, sorry. No additional discounts apply.
You are welcome to just show up, but it would be much easier if you could either call us 336-990-0080 or email misty@pixelsonpaper.biz to reserve your spot so we know how much treats to have for the kiddie-o’s!
We look forward to seeing you!
dustin + kristen { family portrait pictures} pixels on paper
It is very exciting for use when we have photographed a couples wedding and they return for all their future creative portrait photography needs. Just like these two! Kristen and Dustin are still technically newlyweds with less than a year of marriage behind them. They love photos and are determined to begin the tradition of annual family portrait pictures. Like I’ve been saying for years to other couples, you don’t have to have kids to have portrait pictures! Kristen and Dustin’s family currently consists of the two of them and one super cute fur-baby named Tiger.
Enjoy the pictures of this super cute and sweet couple!
Take a peek back at Kristen and Dustin’s wedding photos here. And see more of our creative portrait photography on our website.
