the word from JoeBuddy

I sure hope you made the most of April.  I don't need to mention again how awesome of a month it is.

Anywho, May is here and so many things are happening this month.  Teachers are scrambling to take care of last minute tests and year-end grades.  High School seniors are getting ready for proms and graduations. Moms and Dads alike are secretly both sad and happy that their "babies" are moving off to college.  And families are planning their vacations for the summer. 

Here are a few things worth keeping an eye out for this summer:
· Blueberry Festival is coming to Nac in June just like clockwork.  Main Street will be filled with tons of amazing vendors and fun activities for children to be a part of.
· If your family is going on vacation this summer, or even taking one of those increasingly popular "STAY-cations," be sure to read our article on this summer's Foto Frenzy Contest.  There is much fun and excitement to be had if you choose to take part.
· For the months of May and June, the studio is offering some incredible deals.  Take the time to look into these portrait offers to see if your family would be interested.
· Snow Cones!! Need I say more?

Yes sir, May is a busy and loud month for this town.  And then we can expect the quiet stillness of June to follow. 

Thanks for playing along.  Bark at you next month.

A Modelship Program for High School Seniors


Each year we have high school students take part in our modelship program. This program is designed to connect with current and upcoming seniors as well as offer extreme benefits and scholarships to those who participate. We have high expectations this year as we have re-launched this program with a new style and expanded its qualifications and benefits to include freshman and sophomores as well as juniors and seniors.

gCrew is all about sharing and enjoying exceptional portraits while earning significant discounts, prizes, and scholarships. If you or someone you know has a desire to have  the most amazing portraits made, and would be willing to show them off to friends and family, call us today or apply online.

"Family Vacations" 
 

Remember to take your camera with you on your family vacation this summer.  This August we will be unveiling the winner of our "Family Vacations - Foto Frenzy Contest" but you should start thinking about taking the photos now. Grand Prize will be a
Free Family Session and a $300 gift certificate to go towards your family portrait order.

The contest itself is just a fun way for people to connect and enjoy stories from other families similar to their own.  Share your summer vacation memories by posting your favorite family photos to our Foto Frenzy Facebook Page.  Feature magical moments from your favorite vacation spot, or catch your children horsing around and having fun!  And be sure to comment on the photos you post to give everyone a little background story of your family's time together.

We can't wait to see what images you capture!

 Faithfully serving our East Texas community for over 80 years

Nacogdoches Eye Associates has been faithfully serving our East Texas community for over 70 years.

We feature a local family or business each month in a small effort to promote this idea of community.  Community is so very important to who we are, and it is vital to our personal family and business.  The images we hi-light are of members of our local area that seem to hold the same values and ideals as we do.

 

Nacogdoches Eye Associates has been growing and changing as of late.  But the same values that have kept them in business for over 80 years and a local favorite for the past decade remain characteristic of their practice today.  Their clients are the center of their concern.  Dr. Risner and her associates believe that their success depends on the happiness of those clients and have dedicated their practice to the attention to detail that continues to properly serve their clients. 

 

We have known Ashley for a number of years, and it has been our pleasure to work with her.  We trust them with our eye care and encourage our readers to take a close look at what Nacogdoches Eye Associates could do for you.
