There's still time!

Hey there are all you Juniors & Seniors. So you want to get your photos done but you are worried that it's too late now? PSH! Not even close. The month of October is one of the prettiest times to take your photos. Cool outfits, changing leaves, edgier looks... but don't wait any longer. Drop me an email at copperphotography@excite.com if you want to book an october session or give me a call at 630.965.3437. We'll set up your session and take advantage of the awesome change in seasons. I should have some fun examples of fall sessions up soon!

Also- as an added incentive- any sessions done in october will get $50 off. October only though!!

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!

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!

Mes Souers

So My sister Carly never got her senior portraits taken. She's going to be a junior in college this year, so I figured it was high time that we got some shots of her before she is forty. Ha! Sooo, while we were at it I figured that I might as well take some of my youngest sister Devon. Devon is such a ham! At any rate, I think they turned out beautifully.

Senior Portraits

Spring is the time where senior portrait season kicks into high gear! Whether you choose to book in the summer between your jr and sr year so you have your photos for the whole of senior year, or to book for the spring of your senior year so you have them for the end of the year, now is the time to book your portrait session!

My senior portrait sessions are more like a fashion photo shoot than your traditional sessions. I mean, I liked my senior portraits, but they weren't as edgy as I was in highschool. I think its way more interesting to go to a location that you love... whether its some beautiful garden, or some urban-looking stretch, and capture your personality!

The shoot will most likely last about an hour, and you will end up with between 50-100 photographs, depending on the type of portrait you are looking for.

The package includes:
- an on-location shoot with one location
- one outfit change
- online proofing
- one collage print of your three favorite photographs
- all images color corrected & toned

optional add-ons are:
- additional locations
- additional outfit changes
- bring a friend (this will add an additional 25-50 photographs to your session
- additional time (by the hour)

If you are interested, shoot me an email and we can discuss prices and booking. Also, if you book your senior portraits with me and refer a friend who also books a senior session, you will be credited $50 on your order.

Enjoy the rest of your senior year! Trust me, it goes by too fast. =)

Devon

My youngest sister Devon is a freshman in highschool, although I don't think you could tell by these pictures! (they were her eighth grade graduation photos...to mark the occasion). There is no denying that she is a gorgeous young woman. I think she could be a model!
These are just a sample of senior-picture type photographs, fashion photos, or general portrait session.
