Computer Drama {need your help!}

Posted on July 16, 2010

So, the unthinkable has happened.  I have been dealing with a computer crisis for about a week now.  Before any of my past clients flip out, don’t worry about your images.  I have backed up and have all previous sessions safely stored.  However, what I do not have is access to any previous email correspondence or my Outlook calendar.  I have relied on the calendar for appointments and reminders.

I have had to do a system recovery on my computer, which is like wiping your computer back to the default settings.  Without all of the software that has been accumulated along the way.  It will take some time to sort it out.

The reason I am sharing this awful experience with my clients out there is because I need for anyone who has an appointment with me at any point in the future to contact me ASAP.  I do not have any email contacts and no way of checking correspondence.  If you are a bride, don’t worry.  I have those dates.

This is for family sessions, senior sessions, newborn sessions, children’s portrait sessions.  Basically, anyone out there that I have made an appointment with for the next couple of months.

Thanks!

And since blog posts are more interesting with an image, here is my future new best bud.  I am breaking up with PC.

Whitney {Bridal Session}

Posted on October 14, 2009

I had a blast photographing Whitney for her bridal session at Noccalula Falls.  She was so beautiful and willing to let me drag her all over the place.  She even laid in the grass in her dress (gasp!).   Thanks Whitney!

Baby Announcements

Posted on September 9, 2009

I finally got around to adding  baby announcements to the galleries.  I have added several new options.  You can opt for a one-sided photo announcement or a 2-sided press printed card.  Check them out at the bottom of the “galleries” tab.  Let me know what you think.  Here is a sampling:

Christin – Senior

Posted on August 19, 2009

I photographed Christin for her senior session recently.  She was a lot of fun and even though it was hot, hot, hot outside, she looks fabulous and cool!

New look. Same old me.

Posted on July 22, 2009

So I am revamping the website.  Instead of a website in one place and a blog in another, it is all right here – the blog site.  You will notice the “galleries” section along with other categories that were on the old site.  A new feature that I am very excited about is the “slideshow” tab.  Yes, I have joined the modern age and started putting together slideshows for my wedding clients.  Yayy me! (and them!)

One of the most exciting changes in the site is the ability for you, the customer, to place your order directly from the proofing section.  Once you log into your proofing gallery you will see those options.  Great, huh?

Clearly, I will have to blog a lot more often than in the past.  Which is kind of the point.  There will be more updated information here to keep you coming back – hopefully :)   I also think the new format will be a great way for prospective clients to learn more about me, my personality and my style.

So for my first official blog site post, let me celebrate along with Owen.  I photographed him recently in honor of his first birthday.
