Can you believe it??!! The Holiday Season is almost here (along with some great fall foliage). So, to get everyone in the spirit, we’ve got some great holiday specials that run from October 1st thru November 22nd. Click here for all the details and call soon because we’re booking up fast!!!
I’m pretty sure I have the best job on the planet. OK, I did have to work “late” yesterday. Technically, we were out until about 8:15 or so. But let’s talk about the “out” part. We spent part one of our session at Boothe Park. And it was perfect: evening light, cool old buildings, and even that idyllic summer breeze - just enough to take the edge off of the humidity. Then we made our way south to Short Beach for a spectacular sunset, sand in our toes, and long island sound scenery. But wait… It gets better. Let’s talk about the “we” part now. First, I had a super assistant, Karissa (one of our fab Model Reps). It was great having her along - not only is she very capable (and she can carry the heavy stuff too), but she can sympathize with my subjects when I ask them to stand or sit in a spot that looks like it might contain something that could give you the swine flu because she’s probably been there! Next, there was Jenine. I was going to say that Jenine is one of those “cool” moms (and she is!) but as an overall characterization, I think cool comes up a little short. Genuine is a better fit. It was her relaxed and positive demeanor that set the tone for the session from the minute it started. And last, but certainly not least, there was Kayla. Now, I could write an awful lot about how much fun it was to work with Kayla. But if the cliche holds true and a picture is worth a thousand words, then here is my two thousand word statement about the amazing time I had photographing Kayla.
We proudly present our next “Super Model” rep, Taylor from Trumbull High School. She was so much fun to work with and be around, we selfishly wish she’d be a senior for the next few years! But we know she’s destined to do great things - our next rep from Trumbull will have big shoes to fill!
BTW, if you’re currently a senior at Trumbull, Shelton or Amity Regional and you want to get more info or some great discounts on senior sessions, send us an email and we’ll put you in touch with our rep. They’ve got discount cards for 50% off of all sessions through the end of July.
So, check out Taylor’s video below and let us know what you think.
So, here it is, our first official blog video. It features Karissa, our “Super Model” rep from Shelton High. We’ll be posting videos of all our model reps in the very near future, so check back often to see what they’ve been up to. And let us know what you think!
Yesterday morning, we FINALLY got a break from the rain and believe it or not, we actually had a session that we didn’t have to reschedule!! So, we got an early start, just in case mother nature changed her mind and set off into downtown New Haven to see what we could find. It was awesome to be outside again (and not getting drenched) and Giovanni is one of those people that just takes everything in stride which made it even better. Throw in a great sense of humor and his knoweldge of current events and it made for a really fantastic session - not only did we get some killer images, I actually learned a few things! G - thanks for all the hard work yesterday and here’s a quick preview….
These two were just too much fun!! Their mom is a long time family friend and it was great to reconnect and spend some time with her two boys. We had a perfect day - warm weather and sunshine and I got to explore a little around the new diggs in Stratford. It definitely gave me a good case of spring fever! Patrick (aka Batman) was kind enough to share his pretzels and invited me to a sleep over. Jim (aka Superman) was very close to being faster than a speeding bullet (or at least my shutter speed!) - it’s hard to stay focused when it looks like your subjects are having such a good time running around that you want to join in! Joey - thanks for all the help - I had a blast! Hope you like the pics and we’ll see you soon!!! 
And Laura and Will now have two beautiful children! They are amazing people and we couldn’t be happier for them! By the way, Elena is a true superstar (I’m sure it doesn’t hurt that she has parents like Will and Laura)!! Not only is she comfortable in front of the camera - she’s a complete natural and is one of my absolute favorite people to photograph. She’s outgoing, smart, artistic and she’s going to be a great older sister.
So, without further delay, we proudly introduce Julia in her first public appearance…
OMG - how cute is she?! Elliott was only about seven days old when we did the session (and already she has more hair than I do!!). Her mom and dad were great and I look forward to showing them the rest of the images. Congratulations to you both!
