Contest winners!

These two photographs earned me two red ribbons this spring at the annual convention for NHPPA in North Conway, NH.  This was my first time entering and I was very nervous.  Next year?  Entering five and shooting for blue...and then on to the regional competition!  

A contest is afoot! :)

No, not having a contest about feet...just trying to be silly/funny!  (only baby feet are really cute, don't you think?)

This is my first contest winner's new baby girl's foot.  Since I have completed her session, I wanted to do another contest.  This contest will help us both!  Do you know someone having a baby soon?  Do you need to give a gift to someone having a baby? (contact me for affordable shower gift of a session) 

Are you having a baby?  

My contest is this...refer me to friends/family on fb to like my page of people who are having babies in the next nine months, or even those who just got engaged/married that will have a baby someday.  Let me know you did in the comments section below, and you are in to win a full session *up to two hours with location changes and outfit changes up to six people.  And, even more?  A $35 print credit.  

This will run for one week...so get busy!  Ends Sunday, May 22, 2011.  Thanks so much for your kindness and support! :)

Finding available light

As a photographer, I hate (yes, hate) using the pop up flash on my camera.  I don't care to use my bigger flash on my camera, either.  Sometimes you need to, but mostly, you really don't.  All of these photos were taken during NEIPP finding the available light inside on a grey, rainy day on Cape Cod.

Learning and Applying...

It's been a wild six weeks here!

In March, two of my prints won awards at the New Hampshire Professional Photography Association's annual conference.  I was thrilled and look forward to entering more next year and aiming higher!  It's nerve wracking as you sit in a dark room and one print at a time is judged by a high level of photographer from the PPA.  Another goal achieved...many more to come!

April, I attended the New England Institute of Professional Photography in April and have been so busy ever since!  I am so excited about all I have learned and where my photography business is headed.  I am trying to juggle it all, as usual for me.

Stay tuned for fun new clients and photographs!

With this ring...

I love weddings.  Planning my wedding was so fun...even if it was 3,000 miles away!  The internet was relatively new ten years ago and I have a blast getting all the details set.

It's not surprising to me that my Photographic journey is pointing me in this direction.  I am looking forward to opportunities to capture the most of memorable days for people.

Lots of hours have been invested and more are soon to come!  I am not one of those, "hey I got a new camera let me be a photographer" peeps.  I have been studying for a couple years now and learning all I can through numerous resources.  In two weeks, I will be heading to Cape Cod for a week of intensive training with NEIPP.  This is going to be amazing!  Five days with two amazing teachers.

I love learning and look forward to applying all I learn to create what you dream of!

If you know of any brides to be in need of a Photographer, please share my information with them.  My first few will be getting special pricing.  I am available to all of the New England states.
