Chalkboard Mini Sessions

Dec 2012-Jan 2013 Chalkboard Mini Sessions 

$105

up to 25 min

my home studio

1-2 kids/dogs ($15/extra kid)

All digital images on a CD 

Studio will be set up with a chalkboard background to use as you want!  You could do Christmas...

Or why not have a photo session where it is kid themed "resolutions" (or reminders) for things like:
- eat all my beans
- be nice to my sister
- get my homework done before TV
- share my toys
(you can come up with anything that would work for you kiddo)

Here are some examples:

For your mini session you will have the option to write directly on the chalkboard, or for a little extra per photo I will put text on the photo to personalize.

If you want to use your mini session with the chalkboard in another way, just let me know ahead of time.  The chalkboard is 4 ft high, so there are some height limitations.

Perfect for Valentine's Day cards - just a thought ;)

Fitness Inspiration

It's a new year, which to some means resolution time.  One of my "resolutions" was to go to bed earlier, meaning at a somewhat decent hour since midnight just does not seem to cut it for some reason.  The problem is, that is MY time!  The kids are finally sleeping, it is quiet, I can finally get something done.


Things just seem to get out of hand the longer I work...
10pm, working but I should probably go to bed
1030pm, just a few more edits
11pm, what about that blog post
1130pm, Pinterest!  Yes, by this time I am not functioning and have no idea what I am doing on the computer.  I should have been in bed an hour ago!

My brain gives up around 11pm and all it wants are pretty things to look at, and fun crafts and baking ideas that I will never end up doing - but I might, right?  Oh, Pinterest...

Needless to say, going to bed earlier has not happened.  Maybe I need to aim for going to bed later to trick myself.

If you made a new year's resolution I hope you have better determination then I do!  And if you made a "get in shape" type of resolution then these photos are motivation for you!!  Emily Nowlan of Your B.E.S.T. Fitness is a supermom and she looks the part too!  Two gorgeous girls and abs that conceal any hint of being stretched while pregnant.  I guess she knows what she's doing!

If you made it this far you get an outtake shot!  How do you take photos in a studio with no windows and you didn't bring a studio light set-up?  A fabulous assistant named Lori, your speedlight, and a reflector.  Plus a few trial and error shots!
