your life. the movie.

I know I’ve been teasing you with the new project Jodie and I have been working on and TODAY IS THE DAY to announce it!  We are SO excited to show you this!

It’s going to be the PERFECT fall session because it will make an INCREDIBLE Christmas gift… for your husband, the grandparents, or just to put away and give your kids someday!

And to give credit where credit is ABSOLUTELY due… we got the idea from Tara Whitney, one of our favorite photographers from out of California. She started doing these earlier this year and I know it’s inspired a lot of photographers in other markets to start offering them! Thanks for being awesome Tara!

AND this would not have come together without Jodie Allen and Jeff Koziatek (videographer) collaborating with me. The three of us make a great team and we can’t wait to show you some of our other videos in progress!

Your Life. The Movie.

Your life is a series of moments. Small moments. Fleeting moments. Beautiful moments. Real moments. Moments that all add up to equal the whole of your life. Your life that is worth capturing. Photography does just that. It captures those tiny moments. Frame by frame. Imagine being able to capture all the moments, even between the frames. Your complete interactions. Not just still images, but moving images too! With our home movie experience we are able to give you both. Two photographers and one videographer will be there to capture your family as they are, today. And with our digital package you will receive a DVD of your movie and a CD of all images! Let us capture your life.

Your Life. The Movie.

Enjoy!

a new project – [St. Louis Family Photography]

So another one of the benefits of teaming up with another photographer, is we really spur each other on with ideas and things we’d like to try.  This is just one of many new projects Jodie & I have in the works for Fresh Art.  And I’m going to be a total tease and just share some images… and wait to share next week (hopefully!!) what we’ve got up our sleeves!

If you love the idea of getting images of your family just BEING your family, as you are RIGHT NOW… then you are going to be over-the-top in love with this idea like we are!  Can’t wait to share!

This week is also filled with school orientations… including :::gulp:::: HIGH SCHOOL orientation!  Abby is super excited about starting high school on Monday, and her biggest worry?  Forgetting how to get her lock on her locker open.  (she practiced quite a bit tonight)  Everyone is ready to get back to school.  I’m going to miss the (somewhat) lazy days of summer and being with them, but am welcoming the return to schedules and order… and truthfully those few hours apart are sounding okay too!  LOL

sneak peek for the P family – [St. Louis Family Photographer]

I got to hang out with this gorgeous family on Thursday. They found out how I don’t like to stop shooting. Even on our way out. Even when the kids *really* thought I was done. I’d beg, “just one more?”. Hope it wasn’t too much torture, guys! Enjoy just a few for now!
