2013 Changes

Hey guys ,

A new year is just around the corner and we will be doing this a little bit differently!

First of all, as most of you know, our prices are being raised!  I know this isn't ideal, who wants to pay more for anything?! But new prices mean new equipment, props, backdrops, etc. for YOUR photos!  I will continue to have deals and giveaways so as always watch my facebook page for that!  You can find the new prices here:

Next we will have booking agreements that everyone must print out and get to me prior to our session, or if we schedule last minute you may bring it to your session.  This is to avoid things that happened this last year like people not showing up to their sessions, showing up an hour late then expecting me to stay another hour, and other inconveniences.  I understand that things come up, but this way my efforts will not be pointless. The booking agreement basically states that if you fail to show up to your session at the arranged time/place you will be charges a 10% no show fee.

I also have some goals/resolutions for myself this next year!

1.  I want to work on becoming more organized.  I know sometimes clients feel like I am a little scatter brained, but that kind of comes with being a single mother of a toddler!

2.  I’m going to try my hardest to blog more often and add more variety like the workflow of certain pictures, DIY props, pull backs of studio set ups, etc.
3.  As always I will continue to work on improving my photography.  I’m always learning and constantly researching tips and techniques. I’m even thinking about taking an online workshop before this spring. If anyone has any suggestions for one let me know!

I think that’s about it!  I have a good feeling about 2013.

Thanks for listening!

Year One Highlights!

 Hey guys!

Since I am terrible at updating my blog (hopefully I will be better about that in 2013) I just decided to make a HUGE post of all my favorite photos from my first year. I am so grateful for everyone that booked a session with me, I hope to have many more great photo shoots the upcoming year.

Until then enjoy these! Some are "firsts", some are favorites, some are funny, and some just warm my heart. <3

This was taken the very first day I got my canon rebel! My daughter was only 2 months old! I had been interested on photography, and taking an online course through school, before then but getting the rebel really sparked my interest in taking photographs professionally. 

My favorite shot from my very first photo session, with Meg and Sophie! Also, that's my very first attempt at a watermark. 

My first maternity session with my friend, Bri! I love baby bumps!

My very first senior session, with Ainsley. :)

My favorite shot from the first of the many times I photographed my sister this year.

Little Trey! My first ever newborn session!
