On Saturday, March 12th from 3:00-6:00 pm, come on out to Shoreline for some awesome kids’ portraits and a FUN time! I’ll be doing short sessions and offering a variety of portrait packages in exchange for a donation to Room Nine Community School. If you’re interested in purchasing prints in addition to your FUNdraiser package, you may do so. 10% of your purchase will benefit RNCS. Location details will be given to those who reserve a time. Don’t miss your chance to get some great photos and support a great cause! You can find more details on my events page.
I will be offering workshops for “regular people” throughout the year. The first few are scheduled, so mark your calendar. Stay tuned for the finer details. This year is going to be a blast!
Upcoming Workshops From Lara Grauer
January 22 29, 2011: How to Compose & Crop Your Photos
As you may know, I’ve made it my mission to capture photos of your kids the way you see them. After all, who is the one who cherishes the photographic memories the most? It’s YOU! And you want to remember what it’s like to experience your kids, not just how quickly or slowly they grew. This is so important to me that I want to give you an opportunity to learn how to take better pictures when I’m not there. Of course I hope you’ll think of me when birthdays roll around, or when you have a new addition to your family, or when you have a really cool party or special occasion. But we all know I can’t be there to photograph your family all the time. So let me arm you with a few helpful hints.
To kick off my workshop series, I’ll be sharing some helpful hints abouthow to create a great photo for your holiday card. Here are the details.
When: Monday, December 13th 10-11 am
Where: Westside Church, 7758 Earl Avenue Northwest, Seattle, WA 98117
Who: You! If you’ve got a child in your life that you care about, then you belong at my workshops.
What: Bring your camera and yourself. Babes in arms are fine, but young kids might be bored if they don’t have a camera of their own (or something to do), as the class will be geared toward adults. We’ll spend the first 35-40 minutes learning and exchanging ideas, and the last 20 minutes practicing. And if we end up having kids there, they make great models, so it’s all good!
Why: Because holiday cards are a fun way to share your family’s personality with your loved ones. It’s like an unexpected visit!
How Much: This workshop is free for the first 10 responses, so be sure to RSVP right away to reserve your spot.
I just realized I never posted this on my blog. If you’re not getting my facebook and twitter updates, then you haven’t seen the video from my Beach Photo FUNdraiser this spring! You can count on seeing more of these. They’re so fun!
I’m getting excited for next weekend’s Father’s Day photos – don’t forget to sign up for your time slot on Saturday, May 22, 3-6pm! Here are some fun images I did this week in preparation…
I’ve got some great ideas for Father’s Day photos, and I am taking time to get all the pieces in order this week. I have been prop and background shopping lately, so you’ll have the option to get a look that you’ve never had an opportunity to experience with me! As I gather my things, I will post example photos so you can see what I’m talking about. I’m getting excited – are you?
Okay, so Mother’s Day is over. I had a wonderful day, and I trust that all you moms had a great day too. But that means now it’s time to turn our attention to all of those wonderful Dads out there!
Photos of family are so special. It’s hard to put into words what they can do for a person’s soul. Our children are so important for so many reasons, and a portrait of them can stir up a whirlwind of emotions for proud parents. My son gave me a picture of himself in a frame which he enthusiastically decorated for Mother’s Day. It’s something that I know I will hold dear forever. What better gift could there be?
So in honor of Dad’s Day, I am hosting a Father’s Day Photo event! This will be an opportunity for you to come get a great deal on high-end, fun and personal portraits. Special packages will be available only for this event, or you can order a la carte as always!
Get your Father’s Day gift done early. Sign up for your time, enjoy a fun photo session, and choose a perfect photo package for Dad. It’s as simple as that. Contact me right away!
