the "i love fall fashion" shoot

Once again, here's Alex. Because Alex loves to model, and I love to take photographs. And we both love fall. =)

I love Alex. Even though we are years apart, she is one of my truest and bestest friends in the world! =) Sometimes God just likes to mess with your perceptions of what you best friends should be like... age, gender, race... He'll smash those assumptions and give you just what you need! Also- these photos are in memory of Alex's crooked pinkies, which she's getting fixed tomorrow. RIP crooked pinkies!! haha. I love you Alex!

playing around

so. My blog was boring so I am trying to spice it up a bit. what do you think? It needed some personality!

how are all you lovely people doing these days?

She's so cute...

Here is my niece now... They sprout up like weeds around this age, don't they? She is beautiful and full of personality. You can tell from the photo below! haha. That photo was from March... she's so big now!

One more on the way....

Ok. I am being totally unbiased when I say that I have the cutest, funniest, sweetest, most well-behaved niece on the planet. And she is about to become a big sister! My sister in law Susan is also the cutest pregnant woman... and I love taking pictures of both her and my niece Adeia. I think it is so neat to look back on my photos of Addie and see how much she has grown in just 18 months... it's amazing! I can't wait for niece #2!!!!!

New Toys

Hey guys... I know this won't mean much to all of you, but today I got my new macbook pro in the mail!! I am super stoked, and I'm writing this from my lovely new baby now! It's pretty fun getting a new toy... especially one that will make it faster and easier for me to edit photos, create great products, and post photos up faster! It is going to make my life so much easier, and I couldn't be happier. =)

Happy Labor Day!

Hey guys! I just wanted to wish you all a happy labor day!! Hopefully you all have the day off and are doing something fun. I'm looking forward to a bbq with my husband and some of our best friends. Nothing like a relaxing day with some of the people who mean the most to you. That and delicious grilled food.

So I realize that I told you all that I was rolling out some news about senior portrait packages. Here they are with no further ado!

First is the Classic Senior Session

$250
- session up to 1 1/2 hours
- one location
- unlimited outfit changes
- personal online gallery of all final images OR at home viewing consultation
- $100 print credit


The new session I want to tell you guys about is more for the girls.

The Trendsetter Session

$350
- Session up to 2 hours
- up to two locations
- unlimited outfit changes
- personal online gallery of all final images OR at home viewing consultation
- $150 print credit

For the Trendsetter session you are encouraged to bring your prom dress for your own mini trash-the-prom-dress session! We can do low-key-trashing, or we can go all out at the end of your session and have you float around in a pool or lake or stream in your dress. How daring you want to get is totally up to you!

Also- I am taking "applications" for senior models that are from the class of '09. If you are chosen you will get a free session. All you will have to pay for are your prints. You will get promo materials with your photograph on them to hand out to friends and kids at school. Your job as a senior model will be to help me spread the word about my senior portraits, and in exchange you will get a free session. Also- for every senior that you refer who books a session with me, you will receive a $10 print credit towards your own session!

If you are interested, please send me an email at Copper_Photography@excite.com. Include your name, email, phone number, graduation year, school name, and tell me a little bit about yourself and why you think you should be a senior model. Tell me about your extra-curricular activities, your high school experience, and what kind of things you are into. I will be choosing only one to two models per school, so get your application in soon, and spread the word to your friends who you think may be interested, and even at other area schools


OK! Well once again, I hope you all have a great day off!!! Yay for a free day!
