One of my favorites!

September 30, 2010

This family started out as clients (friends of our friends) and I am so thankful to say that now they are dear friends and cycling/triathlon buddies!   I am always so honored to do their photos, and I think their two kids are some of the cutest I get to work with.  We enjoyed some great sunset light/sun flare, and I had such a hard time narrowing down photos of their kids that I did a big ole collage of them!  :)

Ahh…I love me some pretty light…and a beautiful family!

Um, can you say cute?!

What a handsome guy!

Gorgeous little girl!

I love these photos…they are so real and adorable.

How sweet is this?!

A sweet moment with daddy.

I realize this one below is a little unconventional and not in my normal style, but I love playing with alternative toning and textures.  Plus, just look at his face – pure joy!

What a fun session!

Thanks, guys, for such a fun time!

Love,

It’s that time of the year…

Can you believe that it’s time to be thinking about photo sessions with Christmas/Holiday cards in mind?  I can’t either.  But I wanted to do a quick post to let you know that if you had photos in mind for cards, you need to book soon.  My free dates are quickly filling up, and I have heard from many people who say they’d like to book.  My time is very limited, so check out your calendar and give me a call!  I am offering discounted sessions (that means $150 during the week; $200 on weekends) and a $35 print credit (which can go towards cards or whatever you’d like) from October 15 through 30 ONLY.  Starting in November, I will be booking sessions on a VERY limited basis, with the hopes of starting my maternity leave at the beginning of December.

The cards I offer, by the way, are so beautiful!  I offer a variety of different choices (from very modern and chic to a more traditional style) and they are completely custom!  You can change the wording, colors, fonts, etc.   They come in packs of 25 with envelopes.  I am happy to show some of my 2010 card options.  Below, you can see just a couple of the cards that I made for 2009 (yes, they are actual cards the clients used).  They are press printed on beautiful linen or pearl paper – I got so many compliments on them last year!

This is the front of the card (this is a 5×7 inch flat card)

…and this is the back!

This one below is the front of a 5×7 greeting card style (it opens up and has a “spread” in the middle).

When you open it, it has this image below as the TOP of the spread:

…and this shown below was the bottom of the inside spread:

…and shown below is the back of the card.

I’ll look forward to hearing from you to schedule your sessions!

A few weeks ago (time is flying by!), we had the opportunity to go to Aspen with friends and stay with Megan and Roy in the simply amazing house they rented there for the summer.  They were awesome hosts, and we had a great weekend with them.  My husband, Ryan, got to go cheer Roy on as he rode 100 miles in the Leadville 100 mountain bike race that weekend – what a feat!  He and Megan are newlyweds, married around this time last year, and are so cute together!  They asked me to do a session of them with their two sweet pups, and I was happy to oblige.  They had a fabulous hiking trail just outside their house, and we ventured out there for our session.  As you can see, it was well worth the effort of dog wrangling and hiking in nice clothing!  Thanks again, Megan and Roy – you two are great hosts and we can’t wait to see you again!

Was this an amazing setting, or what?

How cute are they?!

Gorgeous.  Enough said!

I have to end on this one…how fun!  The dogs were SO good and look like they’re smiling at me!!  Love, love it!

Love,
