We all know times are tough, and its very easy to get discouraged and overwhelmed looking at today’s economy.  As we tighten our belts thanks to the new changes in our paychecks, we realize there will be areas where cutbacks are needed. We don’t want your memories to be some of those cutbacks, so we have designed a solution that we are naming The Rummage Exchange!

Since we are always on the lookout for new props we propose an alternative method to modern payment. Much like they tended to do during the Depression and WWII when times were tough, people used what they had to barter for things they wanted or needed. Our proposal is simply this. Once a month we will post some images here on the blog of items that we might be looking for in exchange for a regular session valued at $250. If we accept your offer of one of the items listed you will receive your session at no cost to you. Yes! 100% completely free!

Everyone has a family attic somewhere. One man’s junk is another man’s treasure! Look through your attic or closet or even go hunting at goodwill or a thrift store! Only items similar to the items posted here will be considered for the exchange. The Rummage Exchange will take place the last full week of every month to give you ample time to hunt for items. We will ask you to fill out our Rummage Exchange Form and submit a picture of your item. All selections will be announced at the end of the week. This is a first come first serve basis so we encourage you to make sure you get your entry in first to ensure your spot.

This exchange program is only valid for regular portrait sessions only. Engagement, Bridal and Trash the Dress sessions are not applicable unless otherwise posted.

Now doesn’t this sound like an excellent plan to you? Sounds great to us here at Noelle Studios. Be on the lookout for our very first Exchange coming soon!
