Happy Holidays! {Photograher, North Metro Area, Minnesota}

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

12-4-08-103t5x7beI have always loved Christmas. It, to me, is the time of year that renuews our faith in each other. That it’s the time of year when mircles can happen, and usually do. This year it seems like is has flown by. The holiday season in particular seems to have just vanished in a blink.

We have done most of our usual holiday traditions, but this year we added a new one. I took my son to the Holidazzle parade. It was a bitterly cold night the day we went, but thankfully, we had purchased tickets to sit in the “hot seats”, which are inside a heated tent. It was truly magical. He had so much fun and I managed to despite shooting in the cold and through a heavy plexi window with bars, capture the sprit of the night for him.

This photo represents what the holidays mean to me! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Casting Call — Maple Grove Minnestoa Newborn Photographer

Saturday, December 20th, 2008
Every once in a while I get an idea, something that I want to try.  However, for one reason or another I need help. Because I am a photographer, that means I usually require models that are the right age or the right setting.  When this happens a casting call is born to help me find the models I need to help me carry out my visions.

Here is what I am looking for:

  • Who: Mamas and their babies who are due in the new year … edd from now until -April.
  • What:  The opportunity for me to try out some new creative ideas.  For you it’s a great opportunity  to ‘test the waters’ if you are wondering about custom photography and would like to try a session with Candid Moments Photography.
  • When & Where: a mutually agreed upon home or location when you & the baby get home from the hospital. Baby will need to be between 4 and 10 days old at the time of the shoot.

I do not know the exact number of models I will need, but do know that this opportunity will be limited to just a few sessions over the next couple of months.  It is very important, if you are interested, to contact me ASAP via e-mail: info@candidmoments.com to talk about the session and get you on the books. If you are reading this and know of someone who is pregnant, please feel free to pass the information along to them.  If you do be sure to have them mention your name, so you can receive a $30 print credit at your next session.  Session can take place in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Metro area.

What do you get, besides the chance to experience what custom photography is like?  A FREE newborn session ($125), an online gallery available to you & your family for additional viewing, and an a set of 24 flat birth announcements. Additional prints, cards & gifts are available for purchase.

I have had the pleasure of photographing little Miss M since she was born, nearly three years ago.  Every year we do a session in December for her milestone, so that we can use the photos when we create her custom party invitations.  Each year her Mom has fun and amazing themes for her parties.  Last year it was a Western theme, complete with stick horses and cowboy hats.  This year she is doing a Tea Partea!  I love the idea and her hats!

M family I hope you like your sneak peak!!

My baby planners have all grown up.  They are now all one — and it makes me sad. I can not wait for the next set — as I LOVE babies and watching them grow~

I just love using the Magic Blog it Boards by MCP Actions — makes sharing with all of you so much easier!

Where is all the time going??

Another one of my baby planners is graduating, he turned one two weeks ago.  I remember all to well my  first visit with Mr. N.  He  REFUSED to sleep.  He was a go getter right from the start. He made me work for every shot!

Here he is today — still an energetic little boy!
