Even though it’s incredibly hot and sticky out here in Utah, Target has started pushing their back to school stuff (which does make me happy)…which will soon lead to Halloween (the *very* best time of year!) and Thanksgiving and Christmas. And if you’re like me, once July is over the rest of the year just melts into one giant month of Augu-cember and it can be scary that those once grand ideas of getting all these things done before the holidays turns into your New Years Resolutions for 2011. I know, I’ve been there
So this year…let’s plan ahead

Call or email today to schedule your session and receive 25 complimentary holiday cards (a $40 value) with your favorite image from your session at no cost to you. This next week I’ll be taking pics…hoping for that perfect shot of my three, and maybe this year I’ll get my cards done early

Becky Higgins is someone that I have admired from the beginnings of my scrapbooking obsession. After I began teaching for CK and Simple Scrapbooks I was lucky enough to get to meet her and now can call her a friend. I look back on the first time I met her as a fellow teacher and remember being so star struck thinking how crazy it was that I was able to go to lunch with her and some of the other big names that I admired so much. I am pretty sure that I even told her that, and I remember her laughing at me, thinking I was silly for feeling that way. Becky is a generous and kind person and I am so proud to be a part of her Giveaway. Check out her blog here to see the details and enter for your chance to win…and if you’re not in my area, keep checking for the rest of the month of May, there just might be a photographer in your area!!

Today I am featured on a great local blog which showcases a cool company each day. Be sure to check them out today to see the great deal I’m offering and to keep checking them out each day for a new local deal. Click on the button below to find out more!

Today also starts the new blog feature of What to Wear Wednesday for carrieowensphotography…I will feature outfit collections or links to stores that have great options for your outfits for your session. This week’s example comes from the help of a photographer friend of mine Kelsey Anderson, who has created some great combinations to get your mind going in selecting your outfits for your session. On a day like today where it’s snowing in Utah (yes…it’s May here too) I love seeing these bright and springy fashions.

This post is in follow up to a popular entry from November answering the always present “What do I wear?” question. This shows that it’s ok that you don’t have outfits that “match” or that you think go together. Because if you pull together outfits that are similar in style, meaning all casual, all dressy, all in jewel tones, etc…you can pull of some great looks.

This example shows a more colorful example of coordinating outfits than the previous version which showed a more monochromatic styling. Both are great, but this example shows that you don’t have to be matching to look great together. A outfit grouping like the one above highlights the people and their personalities and creates a great pulled together look for your images.
Were the months before the holidays too crazy and hectic to get everyone together for some family photos? Did you get tons of holiday cards from friends and relatives showcasing their family pics but never took the time to create your own? Are you thinking it’s time to bite the bullet and finally get everyone together for some fun shots…but you’re thinking you need to wait until next year? Please don’t wait. So many things can happen in a year…and we all know how crazy those months are before the holidays, right?
So I have an offer for you…book yourself a family photo session now at the regular session fee rate (or one for just the kids for a great Valentine’s gift for mom or dad) and get another fall family session to be held after August 1st for a half off your fall session fee. Keep reading the blog in the coming weeks…some new information to be coming regarding new products and more!

With the holidays quickly approaching, so are my holiday ordering deadlines. If you have a gallery that you have not ordered from (or one that you would like to purchase some additional holiday gifts from) and are hoping to have your portraits by Christmas, please have all orders in by the end of day on December 11th. This will ensure that I can get all of your images ordered and delivered for you to enjoy this holiday season. If you have questions about your gallery or would like some help in deciding, please do not hesitate to call or email.
I am currently booking for the 2010 (can you believe it’s about to be 2010!!?!!) calendar year. If you are pregnant and looking to book a maternity and newborn session, please contact me right away so we can get you on the schedule. I am also booking weddings for the 2010 year (one of my very favorite things to do!!) and those dates are limited.
I also wanted to give a message of thanks at this year end. I have met so many wonderful people this past year through my business. I am grateful for the opportunities to have been a part of your lives and to capture special moments for you and your loved ones. My clients have all been wonderful to me and I couldn’t feel more blessed that I am living out my dreams.
I need to also take time out to thank my friends and family for all of their love and support this past year. Without such a supportive husband and family I could not be where I am today. They have put up with the countless hours I have spent on the computer, out shooting and a few forgotten loads of laundry all in the pursuit of my dream. I thank you for that.
I’m off now to finish up some ordering and packaging up for clients. Look forward to a few sneak peeks and more coming your way in the following weeks! And what post would be complete without a photo…one of my three at our holiday photo shoot.
