I really liked their reception book, so I created this past week one for Bob and Krissy as a wedding gift (I hope they will like it). I sent the pages to WHCC last night — can not wait to see the finished product.

I wanted to share a couple of the pages with you. The first one is the cover page (of course the original will not have my watermark on it :grin: )…

The second one is a page in the middle of the book…

I think this is a wonderful product to offer clients. This is something different that your normal reception book or large photo.

If you know of someone who is interested in an engagement session and would like to have a book created for their wedding reception, please let them know about my services :)

Thanks for stopping by today…

I was really hesitant on joining, because I don’t see myself in the same league as the photographers on the forum. But you know what? I can learn a whole lot from them. I really, really want to become a great portrait photographer; learning from the best photographers in the business is a great way go get there, right?

A while back (actually in May), I went to take photos for a friend — her son’s prom. Although I didn’t see it as a ‘session’, I think my friend was happy with the photos I took. This session really got me thinking about getting into portrait photography (thank you Darcy :) ) — I just love capturing people and their emotions…

Not only do I learn about photography at the Photo Talk Forum, but Lori and her staff share some marvelous templates that we can use for our clients. So, last week I sat down with the prom photos, formatted them with a storyboard, sent it off to the printer. Darcy really liked the outcome of the print (oh, I loved it too :razz: )…I think that I will offer these storyboards from now on to my clients. What do you think?

Thank you Ricky, Josh and Brent for allowing me to use your prom photos to promote my business :) – You guys are a lot of fun!!!!

Thank you for stopping by today…Have a marvelous weekend.
