Lots of changes have been happening this spring and summer here in the backwoods. As a family, we decided to no longer home school. For those of you wondering why, as the kids got older, it became harder to continue. More of a fight than fun every day. I will cherish the memories of the four years we home schooled together, they were some of the best in my life. I took the choice not to continue home schooling very hard this past year, but by God's grace, have filled it with something new and equally exciting. Not home schooling three children has given me the time and passion to pursue my photography business on a more full time basis.
To that end, this summer has been one of growth. New advertising opportunities, new clients, new equipment and I'm not finished with the changes yet! I'm currently renovating an old TV cabinet into a wardrobe for all the props I've been accumulating. (thanks Pinterest for the idea!) I'm still working on props and backgrounds here in the backwoods and I'm set to put in an order for my first studio lighting and backdrops ever!
I am also busy planning my first mini sessions. I've had a lot of requests to do these and I'm excited for an opportunity to give people quality photos and a discounted price through this. I'm going to call them Backwoods Bits. Small sessions in one location, for a smaller fee. I'll do these based on theme throughout the year. Our first will be in October and will center around fall or Halloween whichever the client chooses. It will be here at my home in the backwoods and there will be at least 5 different backgrounds to work with. You all reading this are the first to know the details and if you'd like to make an appointment early, feel free to call to schedule your slot. You can find my contact info on my facebook site. I will be offering 12 slots total for this first Backwoods Bits. Backwoods Bits are for 1-3 people, you get 30-45 minutes of shoot time and you'll receive 10-15 high quality images to print as you please within a week. The cost is $40 and for this special there will be no scheduling fee. I will be doing the first Backwoods Bit on October 6 and October 28th for those interested. I was about to burst from not telling anyone about this yet, the actual release onto facebook is set for August 1st but I wanted to thank you loyal readers. You come here and read whatever is on my mind each time I post and I thank you for letting me ramble.
thanks for reading! Be sure to check us out on Facebook or check out our work on our website
