NEW WEBSITE!!

Hello all!  I have offically moved my blogsite to:

pixelpagesphotography.com

Please stop on by for a visit and say hello :)!

New Website Coming Soon!

Pardon my lack of posts lately.  I have been busy working on my new website.  For me, this has been a long process that has taken a lot of research.  Shopping around and studying up on what would best fulfill the needs of my wonderful clients.  This project has been several months in the making, which included numerous conversations with professionals in the photography, graphic design, and web industries.  The site should be completed no later than mid-November.
As if that were not keeping me busy enough, I will also be opening an Etsy store soon.  At the shop I will have landscape and art prints for sale in addition to all of my graphic design products.
Check back for links to the new Pixel Pages Photography blog/website and my Etsy shop.  I am so excited to share this with you all!  Thanks for being so patient!

Dayna's Headshots

Dayna was in need of a few new headshots for her business card.  A great photo is an important item to have when you work in real estate.  I jumped at the opportunity to photograph her.  It never gets old seeing an image you photographed on someone's business card!  She found this charming, recently built home to conduct our session at.  We both fell in love with this sweet little house and all of its architectural details.  I am such a sucker for homes like this!  Thank you again for a fabulous evening, Dayna!

*Saturday, November 5, 2011 3:30-5:30PM

*Saturday, November 19, 2011 3:30-5:30PM

Holiday mini-session is $150 and includes:

* 1 8x10 gift print of your choice

The Fine Print:

*  All sessions must be paid in full to reserve your spot.  If payment is not received within three days your spot will be re-opened.

*  The session fee is non-refundable, but may be applied to a full session if you need to cancel.  48 hours notice is required on all cancellations. 

*  One family per shoot, no extended family for mini shoots.  Unfortunately the fast pace of mini-sessions does not allow the time a shoot with extended family requires.  Shoots such as these work better with a full 1-2 hour session. 

*  Shoot locations will be announced when you schedule your session.  All sessions will be held in the East Bay.  There are three locations available depending on the style/theme you are looking for:

            October 22 will be at a park/field setting

            November 5 will be at a rustic barn/park setting

            November 19 will be at a historic building/park 

*  The mini-session prices are only for the dates of October 22, November 5, and November 19.  Mini-session prices may not be used with other promotions.

*  Price includes the session fee and products listed in the “Mini-Session Details” above.  Additional prints and cards may be ordered with a 10% discount.  The 10% discount offer ends Wednesday, November 23, 2011.

*  All print and card orders must be placed no later than November 23, 2011 to ensure holiday delivery.

*  All images are for personal use only.  Limited copyright of images does not allow for commercial reproduction.

A Peak at Alyssia's Bridal Shower

This was a bridal shower I photographed a while ago.  Beautiful job done by PJ at Milk Glass Vintage Rentals.  She styled every last detail.  Here is a preview, but stay tuned for more to come from this fab event!

Miss Gabby

Miss Gabby is pretty darn awesome!  When I arrived she was quite disappointed because the shoes she had planned to use for our photoshoot did not fit.  Shed-some-tears disappointed.  Being a shoe-gal myself I completely understood.  Mom brought a back-up pair and forewarned me that we might have a challenging shoot ahead of us.  I tried to think of ways to cheer up Miss Gabby, how we could draw out her spunky spirit that I just adore.  So we chatted a bit and then I gave her some creative control over our session.  Let her pick where she wanted to stand, what props she wanted to use, etc.  Like all of us, kids love having some creative control and freedom.  Then out of nowhere, the fabulous Miss Gabby rocked it!  She gave me serious and pouty, sweet and sassy, and free spirited.  Mom and I were not only relieved, but we were overjoyed that she took what began as a rocky beginning and turned it into an adventure.  Like I said, Miss Gabby is pretty darn awesome!
The two large, vintage suitcases came courtesy of PJ at Milk Glass Vintage Rentals.  You can check out her web site here and her blog here.  PJ is a-maz-ing!  Great vintage rentals/props, and that girl can really style an event!
