Giving Back 2014

It's New Years Eve and I am watching movies and drinking wine and thinking about 2014 and everything I want to accomplish.  I am so excited for the upcoming year and have many new and exciting things planned for my business.  I just finished up a new price guide which I will now be offering digital file collections.  I do not post my price guide online but I am happy to email it to anyone that requests it.


As I was sitting here drinking my second glass of wine I had a great idea for 2014.
I want to give back and offer a session to someone that can't afford to have professional portraits. I have decided to give away one session every month along with a complimentary 8x10.  To sign up, please send me an email by the 10th of each month.  Email me at dvosejpka@lonstel.com.  Please put in the subject line "Giving Back 2014".  Please list your name, address, phone number and email.  On the 12th of each month I will choose one winner to come in for a free portrait session.  All winners must redeem their session within 3 weeks of winning.

Have a blessed New Year!

What an Angel!

I had four of the most beautiful girls in to see me today.  I didn't have time to work on their images yet but when I downloaded their session I could not help myself from playing with a couple images.
I fell in love with this image and couldn't wait to share it.

I think I need to get this little one in to do some modeling for me.  I would love to play with her some more!  She had the most gorgeous hair I have ever seen.

Sara - TCU 2014 Sr.

I take so many pictures that by the time I get around to editing them I forget how beautiful their session was.  I am working on Sara's pictures now and am blown away by how gorgeous they are.  Here is just a small sampling of the beginning of her session.  Seriously all of these amazing pictures were all taken within the first 20-30 minutes of her session.  I still have 3/4 of her session to edit.

The lighting was just so yummy!

I don't know why I don't photograph with my crab apple tree more.  I am just loving the colors!

Are you kidding me.  Look at the light and the way it highlights her hair.

Can you tell I am in love with this sessions. ha ha

Seriously!  Is she gorgeous or what?

Sara came in for the second half of her session and can I say just one thing.  This girl knows how to work the camera!

 

Yep, she's got it!

Needless to say I had fun photographing this one.

She had plenty of pictures where her hair wasn't in her face but there is something about imperfect pictures that I like. 

Perfection!

Oh how I adore new babies!

 

 

She was so perfect in every way.

 

Oh come on!  Is there anything cuter in life then baby toes?

 

Stop it!

If I wasn't too old to have babies, this would give me some serious baby fever.

Is this little girl not the yummiest little nugget you ever laid eyes on?

I just want to smother her with kisses.

Best Cake Smash Session...EVER!

I love the beautiful yummy golden light of Fall.

It is my all time favorite time of year to photograph!
