February’s Fun Letter just went out and I wanted to mention a couple of topics on here as well. If you have not yet signed up for my Fun Letters, just go to the right => and click on “join our list”. I promise these are just fun and informational and they will NOT take up your inbox 🙂

SENIORS!!! It is getting to be that time of year 🙂 Wouldn’t it be fun to get all the necessary shots out of the way and then YOU get to have it YOUR way? Guys, bring anything that you want to be part of that killer senior portrait. Bring your sports stuff, instrument, skateboard, iPod or heck, just bring your car if you wish! Girls, bring your hats, fun jewelry, favorite book, instrument, iPod or your VERY best friend! Just bring what defines you and we are sure to have a blast and make your senior portraits something you will want to share with everyone. We will first discuss dates and location and then we can talk about what you are wanting for your session.

Make sure to tell a friend because if they sign up for a session, you will get a complimentary set of 48 wallets to hand out to anyone you like! So EXPRESS YOURSELF and let’s have some fun 🙂

The Self-Portrait Project

I often hear that it is nice to put a face with the name or the voice over the phone when I finally get to meet a new client.  So, I thought that it would be good to take a photo of myself and put it up on the main entry into my website.  I do have one photo of me and my two wonderful boys on the contact me page, but sometimes that one is missed.  Or this one of me and my youngest <= .  My first thought was "I do NOT like being in front of the camera at ALL!".  My next thought was "It would be a good reminder of how some clients may feel when I am the one behind the camera pointing the lens at them saying just have fun and relax!."   Funny, when it came time for me to do this, I found it quite difficult.  I truly believe this is why I LOVE LOVE LOVE making my clients feel comfortable, confident and happy about having portraits taken because I truly do understand how uncomfortable the process can be.  I know that if I can make my subjects feel comfortable and relaxed, great images will emerge!  So, here goes, some from the Self-Portrait project:

So…I found myself having a hard time not being TOO serious or TOO goofy and here is what came next:

And then the 4 words you will often hear me say "It SHOULD be fun!"

WHEW…I did it and I even shared them 🙂 

Now, on to business.  Don’t forget to sign up for the fun-letter to get the details on the free digital session.  The deadline will be here before you know it!  Try to take some time to relax during these last days before Christmas.
