A photographic memory is a blessing and a curse: you can remember everything, but you can't change the trial memories to make it so you were the one with the gavel and the wig. Let your memories embellish the past, but capture the truth for your records with today's deal: for $25, you get a half-hour portrait session for a family, individual, or child that includes one 8 x 10, two 5 x 7’s, and eight wallet-sized prints ($125 value) from MJ Studios, located in Monroeville. This Groupon is not valid for wedding or senior photos.

During a half-hour session at MJ Studios’ fully equipped studio, a skilled shutterbug will rattle off shots with the speed and precision of a camera-fitted, laser-guided cheetah. Striking images are artfully captured with an uncommon eye to provide game-changing glimpses of the subject’s disposition that can’t be replicated with an emoticon-riddled letter of recommendation. Families can improvise clever poses that will baffle genealogists centuries down the road, children can imitate the expressions of baffled genealogists, and solitary models can sit simply as themselves or, to achieve better posture, sit on themselves.

After the session, clients can select one pose that will be transformed into a collection of high-quality portraits in three different sizes: an 8 x 10, a duo of 5 x 7’s, and a complete octet of wallet-sized editions. Call to book your session.
