Valentine’s Day is two tiny days away. No gift yet? No problem. I’m doing a “Countdown to V-day” series of daily blogs to give you gift ideas.

Leave him speechless with a gift that’s worth a thousand words. A local photographer, Ann Van Epps, is running a special on lifestyle portraits for V-Day. $89/hr. session (regular price: $275)

In a time where we have more blurry phone pics of ourselves and family than anything else, it’s important to capture quality, professional pics of you and your special someone to have and cherish forever.

And, just a side note, I’m not sure if Ann does this or not, but Boudoir photos are super popular to get done and give your significant other. So, if you want to take the photo gift idea to the next level, there’s one boudoir photographer I’d recommend: Little Black Book Photography. Cincy Chic has written about them here and here.

Photos – regular or risque – are always a great gift. They capture so much and last forever!
