January 2009


So I am donating a photo session and an 11×14 print to the silent auction for The Charlotte Jewish Preschool  so I thought it would be best if I could put together some sort of display to go along with this so folks would know what type of work I do etc.

So I put together a baby collage, some mini accordian albums and a sample photo album with various works in it… take a look see!

As many of you know, I am originally from Indiana.  Greenwood to be more precise.  My parents still live in Indiana, although not in the house I grew up in.  Recently they decided to move into my Great Grandmothers house and restore it the best they could and I have to say they have done a FANTASTIC job.  I am so impressed and I’m sure you will be too.  I wish I had some before photos to show you so you could see the dramatic changes but still I think you will feel the beauty of this old country home.  I regret that for some reason I did not get any photos of the kitchen or the upstairs/downstairs bedrooms – I wasn’t really planning on posting them so it wasn’t a well thought out project as I was taking these photos.

Welcome to the farm house: Mooresville, Indiana est: 1819

There is a local group of Charlotte photographers that I have an online group/forum with and each week we have a contest for “picture of the week” and I am proud to say that I recently won with this image:

Nomow – what?  Ok.  Nomow…. it’s just what it sounds like…. an arificial grass system that you don’t have to mow!

Why am I talking about grass?  Because one of my photos featuring the beautiful Ms. Audrey was purchased by AshcroftCreativeDesign for the cover of the Nomow brochure that will be distributed all over England!  Hurray!  How exciting is that?

Here is a demo sample (not the final image) of the brochure:

As many of you know – I work mainly off of word of mouth referral so as a way to say THANK YOU! To all my wonderful friends and clients who have been passing my name along to their friends and family… I have a referral program…Yay!

Get a $50 credit for each full session ($25.00 if they do a mini session) for any person or family you refer to me!

Don’t worry if you are affraid someone forgot to tell me who sent them – I’d be happy to let you know who I’ve been working with in case your referral was overlooked.

 

Thank you again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A couple months ago I was the second shooter at this wonderful couples wedding and since the holiday season was so busy for me…. I am just now getting back to editing some of their photos (I posted a few a little while back with them under the umbrella) so I thought I’d share a few more:
