This little sweetie has been with me through three photoshoots already and she's only 6 months old! She's one of my Baby's First Year clients, so I have been blessed to see her as a newborn, at 3 months and again here, at 6 months. I will see her at 9 months and then 1 year, and then we will design a beautiful album of memories from the year for her Mommy and Daddy. I so love to see them grow and am honored to capture those memories of their first year of life, when they change soo much. Isn't she precious?!
I love this family! They came to me last year, when their little guy was almost 2. I distinctly remember Cyndi wanting pictures that had them all looking into the camera, which I happily took. So this time, I made sure to ask before we started if that was all they wanted this time too. And, happily, they left it up to me! We took some looking, some looking away, some playing.. and it was so fun! That is one of the delights of my job - when I've been their chosen photographer, when I've seen their kids grow up, when we develop a relationship, a trust, and then it's easy to take their pictures, and to capture real moments. Because real emotions come out of comfort and relationship and trust - and that's exactly what I want for my clients! Thanks, Dwayne and Cyndi for choosing me and for making our time together so enjoyable. God bless you in your new home town.
And here's the looking and smiling shot that they love...
With today's post, I think it's time to represent some GUY grads. Mike had many pictures taken (so fun!), and many that would be great to highlight here, but, alas, I will limit myself to a few. I also would like to remind those graduating next year, that I have a few spots open for Grad Reps. If you have already expressed interest in being a rep, make sure to contact the studio with the days you're available in late July, because it's time to get the ball rolling! We will go out, take some fun shots, and choose one of those for your rep cards, which we supply for free. Then, hand them out to your friends, and for everyone who comes in with your card and books a Grad Session, we will give them $25 off their session, and you get $25 credit for each and every person! You also get fun freebies and discounts from us for your own Grad pictures, on top of the credits you receive. Everyone wins!
And because it's grad, afterall, one that's more traditional...
Now, off to another shoot at the Park. Have a good evening, everyone!
Today's Grad spotlight is Mimi, and some with her boyfriend Ryan. I love this couple! They are so sweet together and so very photogenic! I could post many, many more, but limited it to these few and a few different ones on our Facebook Page. Just a side note, I post on the Crystal Portraits Photography Facebook page for those people who are signed up as 'Fans' and have finished their sessions.
This year, as always, I have had some wonderful Grads come through my doors. I will post some of my favorites from each of their sessions here on the blog, as well as on my Facebook page. If you're not already a FAN on the Crystal Portraits Photography Facebook page, please become one! Here is the link to that page : http://www.new.facebook.com/pages/Cold-Lake-AB/Crystal-Portraits-Photography/64612552016?ref=m (or you can click on the Facebook button on our 'Contact' page). The Facebook page will be updated regularly, and will eventually have specials only available to Facebook FANS - so very worth the 'click' :)
Enjoy these first pictures of Allie and I'll be back again soon!
