Portraits on the Parkway, with Jonathan Burton (GIVEAWAY!)

Jonathan Burton Photography is back again with another valuable giveaway, and their yearly charity event, Portraits on the Parkway. When he started Jonathan Burton Photography in 1992, Jonathan’s goal was to elevate his skills in photography and, in the process, create beautiful works of art.  By combining elegant, relaxed portraiture with spontaneous photojournalism, Jonathan truly captures “The Art of Life.”

Portraits on the Parkway is an annual event that is held on the grounds of Moses Cone Estate in Blowing Rock.  This year it will take place May 17th through the 20th, 2010 from 4:00-7:30 pm.

“Portraits on the Parkway” is specifically for school age children, ages 5-18 years old. Each session reservation is $75, plus tax and includes (1) 8×10, (2) 5×7′s and (8) Wallets.

Pre-registration is required and is available through the Jonathan Burton Photography website at www.settopop.com, under our “Events” section. We meet each family that has pre-registered at the Carriage house on the property at their specified time and photograph their child and/or siblings together. The Moses Cone Estate offers us many great backdrops for portraits including the Carriage house, the rose arbor, stone terracing, and the Moses Cone House front porch. This event gives families a great alternative to boring school portraits. A portion from every session is donated to the Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation.

This is a wonderful opportunity to get your creation session AND prints, with world-renown photographer Jonathan Burton, at a terrific price!

Click here to see the available dates and register for your session, or call 828.266.9889 For more information.

    I think all of the pics are just beautiful, but the ones that really touched me are the boys in just their jeans running and then them also playing Hide and Seek at the tree. How adorable! I would love to have pictures of my twins from Jonathan.
