what to wear for your photo shoots this spring

April 10, 2012

Spring is here! Today and yesterday were so warm it was evident of that. I’m sure we’ll still have one or two more times with some rain but spring has definitely arrived. And with that we get such beautiful weather and blossoms and tall green grass. I am loving it for photo shoots.

When it comes to photo shoots, clothing can make your photos so, so, so…. much better. Just more fabulous and lovely and unique. So, let’s make an effort here. Think through your family’s clothing before a shoot. Be fun. Be thoughtful. For sure be you. But think it through and plan ahead so you love, love, love it. :)

In case you need a little help or a starting point, here are a few ideas of what to wear this spring…

Here are even more what to wear ideas for your photo shoots.

mini spring sessions!!

March 15, 2012

I am wanting to try something new. The weather is SO very gorgeous and the tall grass is SO beautiful right now and green and lush. So… I’m going to offer some mini sessions with a discounted session fee so that you can get some pictures in this gorgeous weather.

Next Thursday, March 22nd, during the morning hours
Two background options: a beautiful lush tall green grassy location and a fun backdrop set up as well (use one or both)
30 minutes of shooting (plenty of time to capture your kiddos)
Your little one (or two or three)
Only little ones, this is not a family shoot
ideal for children who are sitting up through kindergarten age

The bonus? Your session fee which would normally be $150 is going to be 50% off, it’s $75 for this spring mini session. All other pricing for prints, canvases, and digital media are the same but I’m giving 50% off the session fee.

If you’d like to be a part of these, sign up quickly here as there are limited spots and it’s next week!
