Workshop - Photography basics

When you first buy a digital camera it can be nerve racking. Wether you own a point and shoot or the newest SLR. There are so many buttons, a lot of different settings, and a lot of frustration that comes along with it.

Coming in April, I will be having a Photography Basics workshop. This class is designed for point and shoot camera users and SLR users. If you want to make your photography better, I am here to help. In Photography Basics you will learn a little bit of the following:

- composition
- lighting
- aperture
- what all the dials on your specific camera mean
- we will cover the terms of the photography world
- basic editing in adobe lightroom
- a photo-walk
- a photo-shoot with a couple
- a 1 on 1 critique with me
- you will also receive a hand out outlining what we covered during the workshop

This class is for amateurs, and semi-pro's. Photography is fun, so lets take some of the frustration out of learning the concepts and have some fun with it.

The date will be April 12th from 9am until 4pm. Cost is $50 so sign up today. Space is limited. Looking forward to meeting and working with you soon!

Portrait Special - March through April

Just recently I put up a new photo of my wife and I. It really hit me, I love having photos up of friends and family. It allows me to look back and say, I loved that moment. Plus it looks really great on our wall.

I have been wanting to do something special for everyone that have supported me along the way. That is why today
I am announcing special portrait pricing for the months of March & April. Money is still tight but memories are still being made.

This portrait special will give you the following
- 30 minute session
- ten high resolution images on a disk (to print as you would like)
- shooting on a location of your choice (like always I can always recommend one)
- and one free 8X10 of your choice.

And you get all that for $55. Call, text, email, or yell at me if you see me driving down the street to make an appointment.

Everyone deserves to capture great memories and images. I offer great looks and guarantee you'll love your images.

After all I don't shoot your standard JC Penny's portraits : )

Uniquely Natalie: Invitations & Announcements

For my New Years resolution I decided to branch out with my blog a bit. One thing I will be doing is showcasing local business that I just love and telling a little bit about the people behind the logo so that you can meet them too.

Natalie from Uniquely Natalie is married to a good friend of mine Joe. Joe and I grew up in the same Church building when we were younger and were pretty good friends. When he returned from his church mission he met Natalie. She is super creative (as you will see below) and such a sweetheart. An added bonus, she has two really cute little boys.

Without further adieu I present:



Name & Location: Uniquely Natalie and located in Aurora, CO

Me: What are your favorite kind of cards to make?
Natalie: My favorite cards to make would have to be Holiday cards. I love the Holidays and making Holiday cards for families just puts me in the holiday spirit even more.

Me: What sets you apart? Why should a person pick you to help create their cards?
Natalie: Its all in the title, Uniquely Natalie - my cards and invitations are unique. Why are they so unique? Because I design them completely on my own but, they are also unique because I can make those simple changes and adjustments to make them unique to YOU.

Me: Why do you do it? Where does the passion come from?
Natalie: Because I love creating something that involves imagination, pushing myself to think outside of my box, and being apart of a special moment in someone else's life.

Me: Would you mind sharing some of your favorite cards you have designed?
Natalie: Sure!!!!






If you are interested in getting some invitations or announcements made I highly recommend Natalie. Great service and a heck of a price! Thanks for chatting Uniquely Natalie
