Mr. T turned 1!!!

August 29, 2009

I love calling him that, my little “great” nephew turned one this month.  I can’t believe I’m a great Aunt, let alone that a year has already gone by.  It was fun capturing him during his first year, and I’m so fortunate to have him so close, most of my family live a couple hours away or more, so it’s nice being able to have someone I’m related to around.  This is just one, and I’m sure I’ll have more to post after I go through them, but I just couldn’t resist putting one up.

My Wall Project!!

August 20, 2009

After many, many months of debate and much saving of money, I finally finished my wall of pictures.  These pictures were taken in March on our spring break with Andrew’s family and his sister took the pictures.  I looked at many different scenarios in how I wanted to put these up there, but I knew I had a huge space to fill, so I knew the pictures had to be big.  I also didn’t want to have to worry about vertical or horizontal, so I chose to go with square 20×20′s and I wanted the picture to be the main focus, so I went with glass clip frames.  They turned out great and I am so pleased with the outcome.  Now I am not a product photographer, so you’ll have to excuse the crappy pictures, but I thought I’d put it up here to give others ideas of what you can do with large spaces.

New Product!!

August 2, 2009

After much surveying and talking to clients I am offering some new products to replace the wallets that come in my packages.  Many of you have said that you don’t use the amount of wallets that come in the packages, so as an alternative to the wallets I am offering albums.  In the smaller packages I am offering a 3×3 mini acordian album that is great for a brag book. The pages are custom made for each session including as many as 16 or more pictures from your session on 12 pages.  As the packages get bigger the albums get bigger as well, be sure to ask about it at your next session.  I will still offer wallets for those of you that would prefer them, but I thought this was a fun way to solve the dilemma I have had with the wallets.  Here is a sample of one of the mini albums and what the pages can look like.  All the albums have custom designed pages and make a wonderful addition to our products.

The Two’s

August 2, 2009

I was going to insert terrible in the title, but she wasn’t terrible at all.  I took this little cuties one year old pictures and was so happy to be able to take them again for her two year old pics.  She was so fun and very determined not to let me get a shot of her smiling, every time she saw the camera she would frown, but I evaded her anyway and managed to get quite a few good ones.  I am so behind on the editing but here are a couple that I just loved, one I played with the editing a bit and made a little vintage and then love the swinging pic, is there anything better than a little girl in pigtails enjoying the swing.
