Heeeeey Ladies.  (I usually save that line for Friday nights but I felt inclined to use it on a Wednesday afternoon.)  I wanted to let all those expecting mommies out there in on a little secret:  the cooler your baby shower invite is the more presents you get!  That’s right….it’s an age old phenomena that scientists are trying to figure out but for now it remains the 8th wonder of the world.  I suggest you use this ancient phenomena to your advantage and get me working on the coolest baby shower invite right now!     

 

On the twelfth day of Christmas my true love gave to me:

• 12 super cool metallic prints
• 11 totally rad canvases
• 10 iPod slideshow downloads
• 9  yummylicious portrait gift cards
• 8 funky custom Christmas cards
• 7 stylish handcrafted albums
• 6 super fab slideshow DVDs
• 5  stunning magazine-style albums
• 4  luscious lustre prints
• 3 hi-res image DVD collections 
• 2  screensaver slideshow downloads
• 1 delectable Print Room gift card 

Give the coolest gift of all this holiday season:  the gift of photography!  Buying a gift card couldn’t be any easier through our online store.  Follow this link:  http://www.rawphotodesign.com/store to the Print Room and click on “Gift Cards.”  The best thing about the Raw Photo Design Print Room:  no lines, no wait, plenty of parking, no rude salespeople, and you can shop in your underwear.   So….what are you waiting for?

Every once in a while I meet a couple that I know I would probably have a lot of fun hanging out with if I knew them outside of the photography-client relationship.  Erica & Chris are one of those couples.  I had such a great time shooting their engagement shoot a few weeks back.  During photo shoots I usually have to try to get people to do dumb and embarrassing things to get them smiling or laughing naturally.  Chris, on the other hand, did a fabulous job doing dumb and embarrassing things all by himself without any coaxing on my part.  I think you’ll get what I mean by watching the slide show.  It actually took a lot of discipline on my part not to include every asinine shot I got of him…hahaha!  I’ll have to save those for their proofing gallery so he doesn’t get too embarrassed.   

Here’s a good example: 

 

  I thought this might be a nice metaphor to describe marriage…at least Chris thought it was funny

The lovely couple met at a Sister Hazel show a while back so they requested this song for their slide show. This shot is my scrumptious favorite….click on it to see their slideshow.
