Book NOW!!!

Ok, guys! Sorry, we've been busy, busy bees! I'm editing photos right now, but I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that if you want an outdoor photo session before it gets unbearably hot, you better book NOW!! We have several engagement and portrait sessions booked in the next month and we've had a ton of inquiries. Don't wait until the last minute!! Wedding season is fast approaching and we won't be taking as many portrait sessions then. I know you have lots of summer birthdays, so give us a call to capture those milestones!!

I have several portrait sessions to post on here, so be watching for those.

Stay Tuned

I did a little photo editing of some older photos today. I could probably spend entire days doing that--very addictive. Anyway, I know we haven't been posting much lately, but that is going to change. We have some very exciting plans in the works, so you'll be hearing a lot more from Red Photo soon.

Wedding Bells!

Love is in the air.....We have been meeting with many beautiful couples recently who are planning weddings for this year and next. We have already had to turn clients away because dates were booked, so I would suggest a preliminary meeting as soon as possible if you are planning a 2009 ceremony. Spring will be very busy with portrait sessions, so if you would like engagement portraits, now is the time to book!!

We have previously used traditional proof books as part of wedding packages, but are now offering coffee table books, as well.  These are beautiful 8.5 x 11 hardcover books, with double-sided gloss pages and a heavy stock dust jacket.  Below is a slideshow of a sample book from Colleen & Preston's wedding.  We'll be happy to show you the finished sample.

A Walk in the Park

Meet Sofia. She is the cutest and most polite 3-year-old I've ever met. It was an absolute JOY to work with her in September--it was hardly work!

This one is my favorite. I told her mom that I immediately thought of Drew Barrymore in E.T. I think we have a future star here!

Stay Tuned....

We have a lot more updates coming, including a lot of beautiful holiday sessions. And you thought Christmas was over!

Baby Love

New Year's Resolution: blog more frequently. :)

I mentioned this beautiful family in my last blog post. We were so pleased to work with them when they got married and estatic to have their new addition in our studio in September.

Angelic little Reece...

I love this one with Reece and Liz...

The proud parents....

And big brother Ben...

Thank you AGAIN for trusting us with these precious moments!

My hero, Liz

We just watched KCTV5 news to see a special report featuring my friend Liz and her husband, Ryan. I passed her story onto to all of my friends with kids a couple weeks ago. Their little girl, Reece, was hospitalized after she broke out in a terrible rash. The doctors couldn't figure it out and it was a terrifying experience for them. They later discovered that she had a severe reaction to Carter's tag less clothing. The company was aware of the problem, but still keeping the items on shelves! I was appalled and angered, especially as a parent. Please pass this information on to any new parents.

Thankfully, Reece is doing great now. I'm relieved because she is a doll and her parents are sweethearts! Liz and Ryan trusted us to take pictures of their wedding and newborn photos of Reece with their son, Ben (which I haven't had a chance to post yet, sorry!). I was shocked and delighted to see one of the photos we took of Reece featured on the show. They said, "This picture of Reece is one her parents will always cherish...."

Then, we noticed that one of the wedding photos was hanging in the background during the interview.

After the segment, Katie Horner commented on the "beautiful picture of that baby", which is awesome because she is the ONLY meteorologist we watch! :)

I'm very proud of Liz because I know she was worried about doing that interview, but I'm so glad she did. I'm so sorry this happened to them, but hopefully this interview will save some families from having to go through the pain this family faced.
