Testing, Testing 1, 2, 3/Asheville Baby and Child Photographer

My studio is now all set up and I had to try it out this morning.  Thanks to my amazing husband for all of his hard work!  He rocks the house!!  I love how men are able to put things together so easily.  I told him what I needed as far as flooring and a backdrop stand and he came up with the coolest design!  I can’t even put a book shelf together!  I blame it on not doing enough puzzles as a child.  😉  I’m so very excited to be using my studio now for newborn and baby sessions!  So what better way to try it out than with some New Year’s pictures?  Happy 2012 to all of you out there!  Hope this year is filled with lots of smiles and good health!

I took this photo of Mya when she was 8 months old way before I even thought about doing photography professionally.  I thought it would be fun to redo the pose.  🙂  I think she looks like a totally different person!  It’s small because I have no idea where this picture is stored and I had to grab it off of our family blog.

Happy Holidays!

I will be away from my computer for the remainder of the year taking time to be with my family.  If you send me an email, I will get back to you after the holidays.  I look forward to an amazing 2012!  We will have been in Asheville for one year in January!  So hard to believe!   I hope you all have wonderful holidays and a happy new year!  Cheers!!

Contest Winner!

Wow, this was really close!!  And it’s funny but the two families that were running neck and neck are actually family members!  Congratulations goes to Beth and Josh with “Perfection”!  I have to say, I do really love this picture!  I will be contacting you guys about how to get your free prints!  Congratulations!  Thanks for all of the votes.  This was fun!

Photo of the Year Contest 2011!

Okay so here it is again!  This year is going to be super hard for me because I loved so many pictures from my sessions this year.  As a photographer, I feel like I grow and learn more and more over time so I can see improvement in my photos and I look forward to learning even more in the upcoming year!  So here are the rules!

-Each picture has a caption under it.  When you or someone else votes for your picture, they must put that caption in their comment, on this post, no other post.  (Not sure why, but in the past people have posted their comments under other posts.)  So scroll to the end of this post and that is where you can leave your comment for who you want to vote for.

-Each person may only vote one time.

-This contest will end a week from today, on December 23rd at 2:00, so email everyone you know and have them help you vote!

-The winner of this contest will win a $30 coupon to order prints from their gallery (not just their winning photo).  This may not sound like much, but I’m making print prices insanely cheap!!!

4×6’s will be 19 cents

5×7’s will be 79 cents

8×10’s will be $1.99

11×14’s will be $5.49

16×20’s will be $15.99

8×10 wrapped canvases will be $30

So get to it!  Time’s a wastin’!
