Fine Art Cards for Sale

Another shameless plug, but I just added notecards to my etsy shop (Click here). Simple, yet really bold and pretty. I'm selling them in sets of five for $15 - envelopes included. You can either mix and match to make your own set, or use five of the same photograph. I will make ANY of the photographs from my shop into cards.

There. I'm done.

I always wished that I had blue eyes...I guess I'll have to live vicariously through my son. (what kind of a mother am I? Is it just me, or does he ALWAYS have a messy face? :) ) And, sorry to those that also read my family blog. Business is slow, so I've been posting a lot of the same pictures on both. Bear with me!

Thank You!

A huge thank you to my good friend Rachel for designing my awesome logo.

Cute, Even If I Do Say So Myself

Please excuse me while I post 30 million pictures of my adorable youngest son.

**As a side note, this is the direction that I want to take my photography. While I enjoy doing family portraits, my heart is in photographing children. Someday, I would like to go to people's homes and photograph their children in their natural environments. There is just something so refreshing about the un-posed spontaneity that you can only get in your own home, utilizing beautiful natural light. **

Beauty in the Ordinary

Thanks Again!

My friend and fellow photographer/MBA spouse offered to do a family photo swap. She took photos of my family, and I took photos of hers, and then we did our own post-production processing. These are just a couple from the TONS of pictures I took of this extremely photogenic family. Their little guy was having a hard time that day, but he's still completely adorable.

Playing Around

A quick disclaimer: I didn't actually take this photo, it's from our engagement pictures, taken by our wedding photographer, Matthew Stone. But, I did do the processing in photoshop. That's right PHOTOSHOP. James gets a KILLER student discount on it, (80% off!) and so as a belated Christmas present, we got it. I know, I am so spoiled, but my needs have outgrown Photoshop elements...
Anyways, since I'll be able to produce better quality images post-production, I will be increasing my prices (see sidebar for details). The MBA student discount will remain the same. I will also be offering the option of ordering elargements through me (I will put up a price list ASAP).
The much needed Photoshop how-to books are on the way ( I swear I could single-handedly keep Amazon in business), and so I expect my skills to be much improved in the near future.
But, for a first stab at it, I'm pleased.
