FUNdraiser 2011

Lara — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 18:13:02 +0000

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.

Group Photos

I used to get pretty stressed out about group photos. I dreaded the “what ifs” about not getting the good one that I’m looking for.

There’s always the closed eyes,

or the stiff and unnatural bodies and expressions (loosen up, people!),

or maybe they’re not looking in the right direction (Yoo hoo, I’m over here!),

or maybe the people are just completely silly!

But with a little bit of direction, a tiny bit of patience, and A WHOLE LOT of clicks of the shutter, you’re bound to get something good. I’ve learned not to worry so much anymore. Nobody’s perfect, and I would never hope to be!

Cool Video

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!

Coming for the Summer Heat!

My summer travel to the midwest is officially confirmed: I will be available for summer sessions in Chicago on July 29th and 30th! Contact me now to book your appointment – space is limited.

As noted early this spring, I will also be available for portrait sessions in Iowa City on August 1st and 2nd. Thanks to those who have already reserved times. You’ve made it possible for me to offer these travel sessions without travel fees! If you’re in Iowa City and you haven’t booked your appointment, contact me soon – there is one remaining time slot.
