    Goin’ Green

    April 22, 2010

    In trying to do my part to go a bit green, I will no longer be printing out on paper my portrait agreements, invoices, or shoot details!! I now have a private client info area where you can read all about what to expect at your session, get ideas on what to wear, book an appointment, sign the agreement, and pay for your shoot. I’m super excited about it and a big thank you to Joell for setting it all up for me!! I can’t wait!! Go green!!

    Isn’t this little girl just adorable? When her mom and her showed up for the shoot, I knew I was going to love photographing her. Her hair alone is to die for!! I love that we were able to add their dog, Vegas, for a few shots too. We had to take a few intermissions here and there too so that she could get in some jump roping!! Usually I hear parents doing bribing with cupcakes, candy, the occasional playdate, but never have I heard them bribed with getting to jump rope!! I thought that was so cute!!

    Vegas… a short essay

    March 26, 2010

    So I am finally back and fully recovered from my week in Las Vegas. I go each year around this time for WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) and then I had a group of my lady friends that flew out and met me for the weekend after. Each time I go to the convention, I am so overwhelmed and excited and anxious to come home and try a million new things. I get crazy with new products I want to offer, marketing ideas, different types of shooting that I want to try, you name it. And I will admit, I am pretty good and doing what I set out to do (except for blogging). Well, this year, I’m going to go all out. I am so nuts with everything I plan to do that I can’t seem to turn my brain off for one second (much to the dismay of my sweet hubby and my little ladies). So, I have a bunch of new work and images I am going to share in the next few weeks that I am super excited about. As some of you may know, I am going to be launching a new sister company to Tara Rochelle Foto that is aimed towards empowering women and helping us feel good about ourselves. Think beautiful sexy images like those of Victoria Secret, Maxim, W Magazine.. If you want to get technical, they’re called boudoir sessions but it seems whenever I tell someone that I’m shooting a boudoir session they think smutty dirty penthouse (not that penthouse is all smutty and dirty but I’m sure you get the idea) style stuff that is total nudies in your face. Sorry if that’s too graphic for you but I’m trying to keep it real here!! hahaa!! So no, not smutty, but sexy. Not dirty, but saucy. I have seen some absolutely gorgeous steamy sexy images and the woman is only showing her legs or torso. Anyway, sorry for the very long post but I just wanted to share where I’m at right now. Look out for some new posts, new site, and more personal dishes of me. I’m going to start sharing more of who I am and not just “hey, look at this pretty picture”. I will warn you however… I am not a journaling major (or minor) so please forgive my misspelled, mis-punctuated, rambling… oh boy, here I go again!!
