BIRTHDAYS ARE COMING UP!
mon. july 26, 2010

This is just a reminder: Your birthday is coming up!

You might say, "No it's not, my birthday just passed" and you would be right. But you would also be wrong because everyone knows that the older we get, the faster those birthdays come right around again!

One of the things we do here at ShootsacŪ is to celebrate your birthday both with you and for you (hey, we love having 365 birthdays)! We want to know when yours is, so you can shop with us and get a free gift when it's your special month.

It's really really easy, just put your little name and birthday on our **BIRTHDAY LIST**. Seriously, that's it: we'll take care of the rest!

HOT NEW REVERSIBLE COVERS!!!
fri. july 23, 2010

If you're on our MAILING LIST, you already know our big news--we have launched 4 NEW REVERSIBLE COVERS, with a fab summer pattern on one side, and a sweet simple suede on the opposite side. And for the first time, you can choose which side you wear!!

On Jessica's blog yesterday, we asked you to name your favorite, and our lucky winner of a cover of their choice is...


MISTY SMITH! Misty said she loves the Flirtations cover, and it's about time she got a new one after being a Shootasc user for the past three years. Congratulations Misty!

I thought it would be fun to post a few more photos here, along with a little explanation of how the covers work!

First of all, if you didn't know, a Shootsac is a great bag for beach shooting! You can take the lenses what you need, cause we all know there's no easy way to roll a big bag on the beach!

 

Second, the new reversible covers are so much fun! I love the ability to get to choose which cover I want to rock on any given day--and these patterns make me OH SO HAPPY!

 

It is SO EASY to reverse the covers! The velcro on and off just like your regular covers, but they have a tab on the top you can fold down to choose which side you want to show! Seriously, it doesn't get any easier than that. And how could it get more adorable?


 

Pick up a new reversible cover while they last! Just click the photo below to buy--they are on SALE SALE SALE till Sunday, so get 'em while they're hot!

I believe strongly in celebrating a birthday month, and it's become somewhat of a tradition. When I married Jeff, I explained this to him, but he wasn't quite buying it.

2. Those of you named Jessica, especially Jessica Cernat, who has the same name AND b-day as me!

No matter what day you were born, you're just a *little* bit smarter than everyone else if you see your name above, because you had the good sense to get on our **BIRTHDAY LIST**! If you're not on it, no free gift for you. Don't be like that!

Happy Birthday July!!

CALLING ALL BIRTHDAYS!
thu. june 17, 2010

Do you have a birthday? I'm guessing you probably do :) Most everyone I know has a birthday, and even if you don't have a birthday, it doesn't really matter because you can just put one in to our birthday form anyway :)

Our **BIRTHDAY LIST** is one of my favorite things that shootsac does. Every single month, we send out an email late on the first day of that month to all the people who are on our list having a birthday in that particular month. The blast has a little birthday goodie for all of those peeps.

Who would turn down a free birthday gift? That would just be crazy! Get on the list!

BAROQUE & THE WORLD = TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS
tue. june 8, 2010

One of my favorite things in the world is the world:

 

There are so many places I'd love to go: Africa, Ireland, China, and everywhere in between! If I was independently wealthy, you'd find me gone for a month here and there, exploring off the beaten paths and nooks and crannies from land to land.

Some of you are even out there doing just that!

In fact, we get emails almost every day from someone, somewhere in the world, asking why we do not ship worldwide. Our response until now has been that you can order our bags from our partner, Adorama, who does ship internationally.

UNTIL NOW!!

If you live somewhere besides the US (and most people out there do!!), you can go to our new international website:

SHOOTSAC INTERNATIONAL!!!

And yes, you'll be able to participate in each and every sale we have, as well as have any item shipped to you anywhere for a flat rate of $35.

Hooray World!!

Which leads me to the next big news!! Until Sunday night, June 13, we have a SWEET SAUCE SALE going on! Check it out:

 

To play with us, if you're in the US, go to:

www.shootsac.com

and if you're anywhere else go to:

www.shootsacinternational.com

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUNE!
mon. may 31, 2010

People who don't live in California think it's always sunny here. I was one of those people before I moved here. I dreamed of shooting beautiful June weddings outdoors on crispy, beautiful, blue-skied days.

Little did I know that they have something here called June Gloom. As in, the entire MONTH of June is enclosed in a dark, foggy gloom that hovers just above the horizon.

I refuse to admit this exists! Even if it does, it still doesn't take away what June does for me--it refreshes. It renews. And it's never gloomy ALL the time :)

So June Babies, chin up, no matter what the weather is where you are! You shine so bright that no cloud could compete with you anyway!

I was unable to find out many interesting facts about June, so instead, here are some interesting facts about life in general:

-The pupil of the eye expands as much as 45% when a person looks at something pleasing
-Dalmations are always born with no spots
-Bats always turn left when exiting a cave
-It cost 7 million dollars to build the Titanic and 200 million to make a film about it
-The average person laughs 13 times per day
-If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, that person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died of wounds received in a battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of a natural cause

Did you like this info? Want fun facts, and free gifts on your birthday? Then **GET ON THE BIRTHDAY LIST**
