Steven's Senior Pics

2009-09-30T10:08:00.001-07:00

I had a nice time getting to know Steven as I did his senior pictures. We went to a few of my favorite locations and are planning to do another shoot once the leaves change a little more.

Heres a quick preview of some of the pictures from his shoot. Hope they enjoy the preview, and can't wait to go out and take some fall senior pictures!

Stillion Familiy

2009-07-21T10:02:00.001-07:00

I had such a great time chasing the kids around trying to snap some pictures when they slowed down---which wasn't often...lol This is such a cute family and oh my goodness how adorable there little ones are! Here is a little sneak peak of the shoot, the rest of the photos will be up soon on my proofing site to check out. Hope they like their preview and anticipate seeing the rest of the shoot. Thanks tons for such a fun shoot Stillion Family!

flickr is still not showing the colors right, so these are a little bit more on the orangy red side than they actually are. :)

Baby Vanessa

2009-07-04T09:34:00.000-07:00

I had a mini shoot with just me and my niece Vanessa! She is the cutest little thing...Everytime I got her positioned and ready to take the pic, I'd quietly grab the camera, get into position, frame my shot, and bam---every time! She'd move...It's like she knew I was getting ready to push the button...so while she was a little monkey to deal with while only being just a month old! I managed to get a few shots...more can be viewed by going to the gallery from my home page:

here is a little sample from the shoot...What a cute family and such an energetic adorable little boy they have! He sure kept me moving the WHOLE time! We had tons of fun and hope to be able to shoot for them again in the future!

Just a couple quick ones

2009-06-03T19:08:00.000-07:00

Well, sadly I have to admit that I haven't taken many pictures the last few days!!! I have been terribly busy with my graphic design work!!! YAY!!! Not only have I started selling graphic design on my other blogspot but I also do graphic design for a company in my local area who has other local businesses go through them for their graphic design---kinda confusing...So essentially, I am not only doing graphic design for one business but a handful of other businesses!!! So thats been keeping me very busy...but I did manage to get a couple photos uploaded and thought I'd share them...

Heres is little Allison---she was running around playing and I snapped this one while she stood still for all of 30 seconds...lol

And here is Arya playing in this gorgeous stone birdbath

Another beautiful sunset at my MIL's!!! (you'll get tired of seeing these types of shots I'm sure lol)

Has anyone else noticed that the color on flickr seems to be a bit off as well as the image quality?

Door Prizes!

2009-05-28T06:47:00.000-07:00

Ok well i've tried something new and I hope it works...

A lady I have known for probably around 18 years has sadly been stricken with breast cancer. Her coworkers decided to have a benefit in her honor to help raise funds to pay for hospital bills. I designed tons of stuff for the benefit including, flyers, tickets, seed packet giveaways and placemats (thats a complete side note but am excited to have been able to help out behind the scene). So one of the tickets i designed was a door prize ticket, so i decided i would donate 5 coupons packaged nicely in a brown enevlope with my logo on the front and my gold wax seal on the back sealing inside an advertising card with a quick reference price list on the back, a business card and the coupon for either a free 8x10 or 8 wallets with a completed photo session! I'm super excited and hope that I get some business from this simple marketing strategy!

Not only was I able to help the benefit and make five donations but am at the same time able to advertise my business through the list of sponsors on each placemat and also through the door prize!!! YAY!!! And I know that two of the winners of my donations had their little ones with them!!! YAY!!! Mommies with cuties!!! Perfect!!! I will keep you all updated as to whether or not I get calls from any of the winners!!! If its a success I'm going to make sure to make up some more donations and keep them on hand for future benefits and fundraisers!!!

Here are some photos of my giveaway---just for fun because i'm so excited!!!lol

this is what the certificate looks like:

and a collage of the envelope and some of its contents:

ok so its not the best collage that has ever been but its enough to give ya an idea...lol

Recent Scenic Shots

2009-05-27T18:00:00.000-07:00

I thought I would share a couple of my most recent scenery shots to break the blogger ice...These were taken at my mother in law's house last Saturday right before a rain storm hit and right after the storm...it was amazing to see the sky change so much in such a little period of time! I was so glad I had my camera with me (I try not to take it everywhere because I know that i'll spend the whole time taking pictures instead of socializing, lol)

right before the storm hit:

right after the storm:
