LOVELAND HIGH SCHOOL PROM FAIR

05.10.13

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending Prom Fair at Loveland High School to share all about my new senior session collection. The students there are so amazing! Here’s the setup  I created in the school cafeteria as well as a few closeups of the special deal postcard and my new double sided designer wallets. I am in love with these wallets. They are super cute and can fit up to 3 images! Perfect for those who want different looks and outfits on each wallet they hand out to friends. In the next few days I will be sharing more details about this special offer as well as the new products included. Thanks again Loveland High for being so welcoming, friendly, and just plain awesome!

FINALLY!

04.29.13

Hello blogger friends, clients, family, and all those who frequent my site! Oh how I’ve missed you! I’m finally catching up and posting a blog post. These past few months I have spent some much needed time focusing on my family, business, projects, and personal life. And by picking and choosing what to work on, I’ve taken a break from the blog. Yes, it’s been an intentional choice, and yes I miss that connection with other fellow artists and clients in sharing my work. :) So now that I have a little time to catch my breath, I feel hopeful I can continue this online journey and share what I’ve been up to professionally and personally the past few months. I thought I’d start this beautiful red head girl who I photographed for acting and modeling head shots. We had an amazing session and the afternoon sunlight was absolutely perfect. Enjoy!

beautiful family, ugly news

04.11.12

This beautiful family got some ugly news the other day: that mommy has breast cancer. Not exactly what you are expecting to hear when you visit the doctor’s office. It’s a diagnosis that quickly turns life upside down. Yet in the midst of such shocking news, one of the very first things this brave mom asked for was to have special portraits made of her and their whole family together. To remember this time when things are as they are now—life before chemo, before the many tests, before all the doctor visits. Simply put, just life before.

So, hours later I received a phone call from one of her best friends asking me if I could quickly pull together a photo session. I said of course and the planning began. I wanted everything to be perfect for this family so I spent extra time driving around to find the absolute best location, selected the prime time of day for soft lighting, and brought some extra props like flowers to make everything just right. This family was so gracious with gorgeous spirits, and I am still just so honored that they trusted me to capture this slice in time for them.

This mama and her whole clan are strong believers in Jesus and would welcome any prayers as she combats this cancer. If you’d like to take a look at her blog and pray through this journey with her, she welcomes you to visit her daily journal at  http://andersonfamilyzoo.wordpress.com.

still working on blog

04.04.12

Thank you readers for continuing to be patient with me as I finish my updated blog. I am still working on the portfolio piece, product details, and what to wear information. I started to get busy with spring sessions so got sidetracked a little (and yes, I have sessions I must soon blog!) so please bear with me. All will be back to normal on the blog real soon. The plan is to resume my regular posts this month. Thanks friends, and enjoy the Easter week!

• blog & site will soon merge •

03.01.12

If things around here appear a little out of sorts, it’s because I’m in the process this week of merging my blog and site. I have decided to keep my portfolio, session information, and blog posts all in one simple place so it’s easier for readers to navigate and enjoy. You may notice that I am making all these changes while both sites are live online. So, you may visit one hour and it will look one way; while the next hour it will most likely look and read very differently. So, thank you for your patience and understanding while I play with all the buttons, order, text, and layout.
