Happy 2009! It’s only two weeks into the year and I’m already slacking on one of my resolutions; to post at least twice a week. Well to make up for it I’ll post a lot of photos. Just some photos to recap how I spent my December.
On the business side of things, I have some big plans for this year. One of them is that I’m going to start doing mini-family sessions twice a year. One in the spring/summer and then fall/winter. Some people like the whole fall/winter look and others a more casual spring/summer look. What is a mini-session? Well basically, instead of booking me for a whole session, these are just quick 30 min sessions at one location. I’ll pick a location and you can book a time slot to show up for a quick photo shoot. Mini-sessions are good for quick family/kids/couple pictures typically for holiday cards or announcements. However if you still want a choice in locations or outfit changes, the traditional portrait session will be the best option. Included in the mini-sessions is an online proof gallery where you can order prints and to choose the the photo which will be a hi-resolution file for your use.
Now for my photos from December!
After 10 years of being open, I FINALLY went to the Aquarium of the Pacific! A lot of people say I’m not missing anything but, I’m a fan of anything marine life. Although it was short time, I really enjoyed it. Here are some of my favorites from the day..
Jellyfish are just plain cool…
Of course the little princess….
We also spent a few weekends to take the kids to see REAL Christmas lights that were a little more elaborate than my single string across the roof edge!
These were in Glendora:
Another weekend on an infamous street in Rancho Cucamonga:
I hope everyone has a great new year. Hopefully we can stick to our resolutions. I know I will try my best!!
God bless!
