I got my studio all set up and ready for some up-coming baby photos and needed a little model to help me try it all out! (Thank you to my amazing husband for helping me get everything together!!)
Holiday Mini-Session/Asheville Family Photographer
Yesterday I did a holiday mini-session with this gorgeous family. I love mini-sessions because usually by the time you’re done, the little ones are also done. This little man was so cute! But he didn’t want to be held in front of a camera. He wanted to be free to run. 😉 So happy to have met this new-to-Asheville family! Looking forward to seeing you guys again soon!
Just Too Good!/Asheville Child Photographer
This afternoon I did pictures of kids that are older than the children I normally do a session with so I was a little nervous wondering how I could make them laugh and smile. I’m really good with toddlers. I know them really well. I used to teach kindergarten so I know 5 year olds well too, but I’m a little rusty on what makes them laugh. Well, I was nervous for nothing. These kids were so awesome!!! The little girl was a natural model. I couldn’t get over how she would just pose and tilt her chin at that perfect angle. And their son was a hoot! He was like a little Jim Carey. He had us laughing the whole time. These two together were like best friends and it was so cool to see! And the weather was just amazing. It has been so cold recently but today it was around 65! Just perfect! I really loved this session so much and can’t wait to edit the rest of their pictures! Thank you guys for a really great session!
3 Months/Asheville Baby Photographer
We were in Austin this past week for Thanksgiving and I got to meet this sweet little man who just turned 3 months old. He is our cousin’s new baby. His momma had a lot of ideas for things that she wanted but I was worried that we wouldn’t be able to get those newborn-ish shots that she really wanted. But we did! I loved doing pictures in their home since that’s not something I get to do very often. It was fun going through their things and picking out what things we wanted to use and I love how they turned out! By the way, this momma and her family members sure are talented. They made most of the things that we used: the Beatles quilt, the little knitted shorts, the Santa hat and shorts,…I may need to take some lessons so I can start making my own props! I miss you guys already and can’t wait to see you again!
His daddy painted this yellow submarine! I loved it!!
And we couldn’t leave out their first baby!
Holiday Mini-Sessions!/Asheville Family Photographer
So I’ve been debating about whether or not I wanted to do mini-sessions for the holidays. It’s not something I’ve ever done because I usually like spending a long time with just one family, taking our time, getting some good shots and then going home to work on their pictures. And then I started looking on-line for a photographer to do a session for my own family. Wow! It’s hard! Everyone that I found that I just loved ended up costing a fortune or they were already booked. Luckily, one of my favorite photographers in town was able to fit us in! I’m so, so happy, but now I know how it feels to really want photos done of your family and you can’t find anyone who isn’t booked or who doesn’t cost half a year’s salary! So I changed my mind and decided that I am going to do mini-sessions, to make it affordable for everyone and so that families who want photos for their holiday cards, can have them in time. I am only doing a small number of these since it’s adding to the sessions that I already had booked for the year, so if you want to do one of these sessions, please don’t wait to email me because I just hate turning people down when I’m too booked. 🙂
*The sessions will be on the afternoon of December 2nd, starting at 3:00. Each family will get 20 minutes. We will get as many shots as we can during this time, but you are guaranteed at least 3-5 photos that will be touched up and edited.
*You will be able to download all of your original sized photos straight to your computer, at no extra cost. (These can be printed as large as you like!)
*This is only for parents and children. There will be a $15 charge for additional people. (Please no pets since our time is limited.)
*The focus of these sessions will be on getting good family shots, but if there is extra time, we can get photos of just the kids or of mom/dad with the children or just mom and dad.
*The cost for this sessions is $100 and includes all of your original sized downloads. Payment is due at booking to hold your spot.
*These will be held at the UNCA Botanical Gardens.
Email me or leave a comment here if you would like one of these sessions! brandy@brandylewisphotography.com We will be going to TX for Thanksgiving, so if it takes me a few hours to get back to you, don’t worry, I will get back to you as soon as I can! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!
