Laughing all the way! New foil - Christmas Card

I love the new Rose Gold Foil stamping available on our Christmas Cards this year.  Perfect for this beautiful family session.  I love the colors and the simplicity. We were happy to offer foil at no additional charge in November.

Atlantic Beach Afternoon Date

I loved photographing this adorable couple on their recent visit to Atlantic Beach and our fun Beaches Town Center area.  During their afternoon date we were able to tag along and share in their sweet relationship and casual easy nature.  I love that they shared so comfortably and didn't need an occasion to shine.  As a finished product, they selected a soft touch 8x10 desktop folio and this is on the front cover.  I hope they share a desk because they'll be fighting over this.

Photography Art Grids - Triple

I love display grids.  Clients who are looking to create a contemporary "family photo wall" are embracing our Art Grids.  Three dimensional wood panels (1" or 2") They can be ordered from one session or multiple sessions making it possible to start out with two or three and then add on as your child or family grows.  A nine panel Art Grid might start out as 3 12"x12" panels, 6 months to a year later add 3 more and in another year or two add 3 more.  Now you have a large wall area covered with a variety of images that look good together.  If you have three children and are interested in creating a complete Art Grid all at one time, mix up a nine or 12 panel with images of the kids individually and in groups.

Here are 3 versions of a cute Block Storyboard with 3 images one as the base and two mounted on top for an expanded three dimensional look.

 

 

 

I love, love Beach Photo Christmas Cards

We loved photographing Roxy and family.  Gus is the dog whisperer for high energy dogs - he just does not give up until he gets the shot.  Roxy loves carrots can you imagine that.  Very funny - I've never heard of a dog loving carrots.  Love the rich jewel tones of this card, but it could easily have been taupe with the color of Roxy's coat.  This will be a 5x7 horizontal fold over card.

 

 

 

 

Taking my own advice

Okay so it's time to make a few changes with a new studio blog.  I thought I'd kick it off with a family you may know.  Living and working a few blocks from the ocean we find ourselves on the beach a few evenings of every week photographing our clients families and children.  Yet we did not have an up-to-date family beach portrait.  So, a few months ago I decided to take my own advice and have an updated family portrait taken with my husband and almost grown children.

I am so glad that we did. We had a fun adventure at the beach and I can now share my family with all the precious clients who have shared their families and stories with us over the years.  Thank you for your support, encouragement and referrals.  You are the inspiration that makes our family business work.
