Website updates continue - adding charities!

Well, the response I've received so far has been great! So, I'm moving ahead with the changes! Checkout my new website (the link's at the top of the blog) to see if you agree with the new (hopefully chic!) look!

I've also added a Giving Back section to my site. I've donated to Baskets of Hope in the past, and have recently been contacted by the Children's Home society as well! Both are very admirable organizations and I'm proud to be able to help out!

Website updates

In case the general public has missed it, I'm currently updating my website and blog! I knew that I've been needing to do the updates and I put it off thinking it would be a chore, but as it turns out this is kind of fun! Picking the colors, the artsy designs. It's kind of like redecorating the house without spending the small fortune (although, I would love a new couch too... oh and while we're there a coffee table... well then we'd need an area rug... I wonder if my husband will read this?...). ;)

I've received some interest in doing weddings as well recently. I'm toying with the idea of adding a wedding gallery of the ones that I've already done. I love weddings. They are the beginning of a new family - full of emotion and excitment, anticipation and joy... It would be a big commitment and I'm not 100% sure I want to stray from my family photography as a standard, but I have to admit that it is very tempting.

What do you think? Comment or send me an email and let me know what you think about the updates and the possible addition of weddings. Good, bad, ... ugly??? Let me know! :)

Well, I'm still in the mood for prints! So let's do a print sale! Book your session in the month of May and when you order your prints receive a 25% discount! Let's all redecorate with great new prints of our little kiddos!

Hurst Family Sneak Peak

Saturday was my first photo shoot coming back from my maternity leave! I was lucky enough to shoot another family that also just had another little one just 8 weeks ago! The Hurst family was so much fun to work with - and how could you deny how incredibly cute their little ones are! Congratulations!

Senior Prom

My brother, Anthony, had his senior prom last night. He'd asked me to take some pictures for him and I thought I'd share a couple of them. Ahh, to be young again!

Spring Promotion

To celebrate the spring and our new arrival I would like like to offer a free gift with every session booked between now and April 30th. With your session booked before the end of the month I would like to offer a free 11X14 of your choice from your session. The session itself can be for anytime - it just needs to be booked before April 30th - and the normal session fee applies. I'm printing so many great large prints of my family this spring, I wanted to share the joy! You can contact me directly at katie@katiebeachphotography.com or through my online contact form at http://www.katiebeachphotography.com/contact.htm.

New Props

My youngest boy just had to play around when I pulled out my new black, furry prop. It was simply too enticing... and he's suddenly turned into quite the ham when I pull my camera out.

I've never really used props before, but I've been inspired. I like how it's versatile and I can blur out the texture for a plain, black backdrop like in the picture, or I can use the furry texture if the shot calls for it. This should make for some fun photo shoots. ;)
