I am SO Excited, St. Louis Newborn Photographer

I have been asked a few times over the last year if people could join me on newborn sessions, if I would mentor them, or if I would hold a workshop. After much thought and prayer I have decided to offer a workshop. This was not an easy decision but it is one that I am proud to have made and am excited for the adventure of it! I truly hope you will too! So, here is the deal. I will be offering this class to no more than 8 photographers. I would prefer you are a photographer that already is well versed in your DSLR and have a complete understanding of light and shooting in manual. While I will cover some of my personal camera techniques it is not a full class on how to shoot in general, rather a class on everything newborn. How I work with them from beginning to end and all that is in between. This will be a hands on workshop. That is how I learn best so I want to extend it to you. You will watch me pose and shoot and use props and then you will practice with my help. How does that sound everyone??
I have a friend photographer that graciously offered her new office space/studio for us to learn in. Thank You Michele Garthe for that. Her new space is located in High Ridge Missouri, just a hop and skip from Downtown St. Louis. The date is set, it will be July 9th. So, clear the calender get signed up before all 8 slots are gone. I am so excited that I can hardly stand it!!  Oh ya, and I am trying to work on some deals with a few of my favorite vendors.  Whoo Hoo.

 

Time to get your Vote on for Fresh Faces

I ended up getting 31 Fun entries for the Fresh Faces contest. They were all under the age of 10 so I made a decision to split the age groups differently! They are: under 1, 1-4, and 5-10. So, here is how to vote, the photos and numbers for each age group are here and on facebook. So, there are three polls on the Life Reflections Photographic Art page, one for each age group. Find the corresponding number and vote. That is it! Send all your family and friends over to vote too. How fun is that. In the end, there will be one winner for each age group who will receive a free session with me! WHoo Hoo for them, and me too! Go Vote now, the voting will end in one week, so you have till May 30th at 11:59 pm. Have Fun!

Thank You to All that Entered!
