SUNNY ARIZONA, HERE WE COME!

We are excited to be taking a much needed vacation in January, 2009. It will not be all play, no work though, as we will be attending the annual Imaging USA Convention for professional photographers world-wide. This year the convention is in Phoenix, Arizona, so we will hopefully be enjoying some sun while it is cold and nasty here in good ol' Oklahoma. Our studio will be closed from Tuesday, January 6th, and we will be opening again on Friday, January 16th. While we are away, we will be attending numerous seminars and events, and meeting tons of new people, including the one and only Anne Geddes! I am sure everyone is familiar with her work in some way, and she is amazing! We only hope to learn fabulous things from her while we are in sunny, AZ! Wish us luck!

OCTOBER HAPPENINGS...

Well it is finally October, and this month is going to be filled with all kinds of deals for you and your family! Our special this month is "Fall Leaves", perfect for family portraits. Remember, if you book your session to meet the theme for the month you will receive 50% off your studio session fee or 10% off your on-location session fee, and 10% off your order! So this is a perfect time to get those Family Portraits in before Christmas, just in time to send out for Christmas cards. If you want a Christmas theme for your Christmas cards, don't worry, our November theme is "Christmas", and you will get your order back in plenty of time to send copies out to friends and family.

Also this month, October 4th we will be doing ACTION SHOTS and Individual Portraits with a Western Theme during the Stick Horse Rodeo, at the Fall Festival. We will be located by the backstop at Stroup Park in Holdenville. The contest for the rodeo is for ages 3-10, but dress your little one up, or even yourselves, and come get your portrait made, we will be shooting people of all ages!

Later in the month we also have the Sorghum Days festival in Wewoka, where we will also be roaming the streets, and we will have something going on there as well, although at this time we have not sorted out all the details, so we will update later.

On the 12th, we are taking a road trip down "Talamina Drive" in Eastern Oklahoma. It is a breathtaking site to see when the leaves are turning, and driving along tree-lined Highway 1 from just east of McAlester all the way to Mena, Arkansas. We plan on getting several shots to convert to backgrounds with our Scene Machine, to give us many more options with fall colors in the future. I will be sure to post images from the trip soon though, just so you see how amazing it is.

2008 SENIORS

Well, we know that we haven't updated in a long time, but we found a few extra minutes to finally do so. We have been very busy lately with football, cheer leading, engagements, and of course, SENIORS! Here are a few samples:
This is Ben, a senior at Holdenville. He is a part of our Senior Ambassador Program, and we used his talents on his many guitars in his Creative Session. We also did an Urban Session, and a few of those images will be posted soon.


This is Erin, a senior at Calvin. I have known her since she was born, and she was gorgeous in her Urban Session! She even allowed me to incorporate her mom into some of the shots. A nice touch I thought, since they are so close!
