We are having a great time in Maui!  My son, Galen is surfin’ dude!  He is 8…but still… he has done more things lately that I have NEVER done.  I really need to get caught up…or something.  For those of you looking to order your Holiday cards and senior yearbook pictures, DON’T WORRY, I will be back from vacation on Monday (11/17) and will be in touch with you to get orders and deadline dates.                    Until then….Aloha!

and outdoor portrait sessions are filling up fast!  The peak time for the colorful fall leaves in Central Ohio is mid-October.  This is a great time for gorgeous outdoor family portraits!  Choose your favorite park or even your own backyard for your session….but HURRY, session openings are limited!

My friend, Ramona,  has 2 children, one with two legs and one with four.  Well, her 4 legged daughter, Ella, turned one year old recently, so we had to take her portrait to celebrate and preserve this stage n Ella’s life (good grief!)  Oh, but we had such fun photographing Ella…..I am not so sure she would agree.

Just the thought of it makes me giggle.  Kids are so full of Spirit and I love the challenge of capturing a glimpse of their personality in every shot.  When people ask me what is my favorite subject to photograph, I have to say children… although senior portraits come in at a close second.

For a limited time…until October 5th…I am running a Holiday special! (aren’t all specials for a limited time?) 

It is so great to have this part of the Holiday “rush to-do list” done and ready to mail….and you get a savings to boot!

I have always loved the Ohio State Fair!  As a kid, I went to see Sonny & Cher for a free concert!  (those were the days & I am showing my age here).  Later as a teen, I showed my horse at the fair every summer.  I believe I even spent the night in the stall next to her (my horse) one night…CRAZY.  Up until recently, I worked …and I mean WORKED at the fair for some 20 years or so.  That brings me to 2008, and I am LOVIN’ the Fair even more today then when I was a kid.  I was awarded the Photography Contract for the 2008 Fair and I have seen things this year I NEVER even knew were at the fair.  What FUN I am having!  To check out some of the crazy, fun and educational things the Ohio State Fair has to offer, check out the pics on my proof page or go to www.ohiostatefair.com .  And if you see me walking around with 2 or 3 cameras attached to me - please stop me to say HI - I might even take your picture….whether you want it or not….

Now is a GREAT time for getting those gorgeous outdoor portraits!  To encourage you to get your annual portrait NOW rather than waiting for later in the year, I have attached a 1/2 off session fee discount!  This discount is only good until September 30th!  Call soon for an appointment or to discuss an appointment, I look forward to meeting you!

One myth of the photography industry is that the advent of digital technology reduced both the difficulty and cost of processing images. While some hobbyists may have seen savings and faster reproduction of their photographs, professional photographers have needed to master another skill set during the past decade to offer their clients optimum quality.
