Gallery site: New for 2013!

Some of you MAY have already had a chance to experience my new gallery site, but if you haven't, CHECK IT OUT (see the tab above)!  I have made some changes to help smooth out my work flow as well as allowing me to send along client photo files MUCH faster!  I have now added a 'smug mug site' to my arsenal of tools and so far, it has worked great!  I am now uploading all completed photo collections into a password protected gallery that you can share with your friends and family.  I am also able to now send a link to clients that will allow them to download their photos straight into their computer.  That's right, I eliminated discs.  I am sure there will be exceptions (Wedding clients will still get a disc), but with no discs, means no extra day of process packaging the disc and getting it to the mailbox AND no waiting a few days for the mailman to bring it!  In most cases, this new method is knocking atleast 3-4 days off of my old turn around time.  WOO HOO!!!

New for 2013: Mini-Session Parties!

 

Looking for something new to do on an afternoon with your friends?  Family get togethers seeming a little "same old, same old"?  I have an idea... How about a Mini-Session Party!

All you have to do is get together some of your friends and/or family who would like to get some fresh photos on their walls and then we will workout a date and Location!  3 or more "sessions" is a Party!  Get 5 or more sessions together and you get some special pricing options!  For the "parties" we'll do all of the mini-Sessions (20-30 minutes each) at a set location and we'll wrap up with a big shot of you and your photo-friends!

The idea of this came to me when I realized that on many of my mini-session dates, SEVERAL of the participants knew one another and I kept thinking... wouldn't this be fun to turn it into a bit of a "get together"?!  I'm all about fun when it comes to my photo sessions.  The more lighthearted, the more laughter... THE BETTER! 

So grab your Friends, your Grandma, your cooler, some snacks and get ready for some FUN in 2013! 

Mini-Session Parties will be available starting in Spring 2013!!!  Let me know if you're interested!

The Holidays are upon us!

Where has 2012 gone?!  It has flown by!  This is a small sample of my 2012 Holiday Mini-Sessions!

The Fairs Family + Fall Mini-Session

Josh and Julie + Desmond and Penny

I hate to bring up the holidays before the Ghosts and Goblins have even done their door to door collections, but I am booked for October and on to November which is the prime month for getting holiday and Christmas card sessions!  Contact me to find out new, fun options and for scheduling!

Ashley + Senior Session

I was so excited to have the opportunity to shoot Ashley's Senior Photos.  Not only because we are distant cousins (4th... 5th???) and couldn't even remember when we saw one another last (she might have been a baby for all I can remember), but also because she is a dancer!  Yay!  And NOT ONLY is is she a dancer, but she is a dancer who was totally open to doing her senior session in... a CEMETERY!  I know, it sounds gothic and a little out there, but the cemetery we did her shoot in is honestly more like a park... beautiful. Nothing like it.  So thank you Ashley for being gorgeous and easy going and for letting me remove "Ballet Dancer in a Cemetery" from my Photography Bucket-List!
