So it has been a while....

I know I know, It's been way too long! I kind of fell off the wagon..well the blogging wagon at least. I haven't stopped my photography, even though it has slowed down a good bit. I was looking through this blog and I was amazed that I haven't posted since 2011. That's just crazy to me!! Anyways, I've been keeping busy with the normal life stuff and still doing some shoots on the side. I've never lost my love for my photography, I guess you could say that life has kind of just got in the way. That being said, I hope to start posting more often! I can't promise a whole lot at the moment but I can at least say I will try my best!

A lot has happened in my life since I last posted! It's still just my husband, myself and my daughter but we've went through lots of changes together. Mostly my daughter growing up into this sweet not so little girl and most work related things for my husband and I. We are happy and healthy and that is all I could really ask for!

Anyways, recently I shot a maternity shoot with some long time friends. If you've ever looked at my blog before you will have noticed them. I have been blessed enough to have photographed their engagement, wedding and now maternity sessions! When I say blessed, I truly mean blessed! They are honestly one of the more photogenic couples I have ever encountered! They have always made my life easy and that's why I will continue to always take their pictures if they ask! Anyways, I can't wait to post these wonderful images and show you all what I mean!! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did while I was editing them!! Keep a look for upcoming post and as always if you have any questions for me please contact me!!

 

 

Rick and Jennifer's Maternity

So I forgot these wonderful maternity pictures in my last post so I made a post just for them! I really loved this photo session even though I forgot my studio lights the day of! It worked out really well though and I'm so greatful to Rick and Jennifer for making my job really easy!

A New Year

Hello all! Hope everyone had a great holiday and New Years! I know we did! I'm glad all of the hustle and bustle is over though. I'm ready to get back to the norm and put into action my only New Year's resolution which is the blog more! I'm going to attempt to blog more and more importantly this blog will be the place for all my news and updates. I'm hoping to have a few changes this year to my packages and also another good giveaway as well.

So on to some news, you are no longer able to view my direct website. Thus why I am blogging more. I still have my Whitehead Photography Facebook and this blog but otherwise no more website. But all is well, everything that you'll need to know will be here or on my Facebook page. You can also still directly email me at whiteheadphotography@hotmail.com if you need answers to any questions. I check that email many times everyday, and I also reply as soon as possible.

I've learned a lot in the past year. I've made some mistakes as well that I've also been able to learn from. Those things make me the happiest because sometimes you have to make a mistake to better yourself and I feel like I have this year. I am also very happy about the growth I've witnessed. It is amazing the power that you, my customers, have on my business and for that I am very grateful. I know I wouldn't be anywhere without you all. After all, word of mouth is the best advertising I could ask for!

I'm working on a few changes with my pricing right now along with a few other new things I'm thinking about adding but don't worry the pricing won't change a lot and they most likely won't even go up. I'm at the point in my life and my business that I know that one day I would love to be able to do photography as a full time job but at the moment I do it more for fun then for an income and that's just fine for me. So for the time being, my goal is still to provide you with affordable pictures because that's what I would want when looking for a photographer. I'm not saying that my prices will never go up because I'm sure at some point they will but being affordable will also be a goal I strive for. Don't worry, you'll be the first to know when I've changed something!

Now that I've typed you a novel I have to start the year off right with some pictures. These are my favorites of the entire year, and hopefully a large post of pictures will make up for the time I've missed this past year! Happy New Year and keep checking back for more info! Thank everyone!

Dempsey and Will!

Dempsey and Will are the brave couple that have chosen me to photograph their wedding! I am very excited that they trust me with such a large responsibility! Yesterday we did an engagement session and it was a great time! I was worried that it would rain on us but we got there with just enough time to get a good session in before it started to sprinkle. We were walking back to our car when we started to feel the rain so it worked out wonderful. They were perfect models! Here are my favorites from the day!

Spring Promotion!

Hi everyone! Sorry for the slowness of the blog lately, but things around my house have been very busy lately. I've been working on new advertising and hopefully my name will be out and about enough to bring in more business. I have also been getting ready for my very first wedding! I can't explain how excited I am about May 1st! I am very grateful that someone was nice enough to take me on to do there wedding when I have little experience. I'm hoping to make them very happy and hopefully build my portfolio so that other brides and grooms will be interested in using me in the furture!

Speaking of my portfolio I have been trying to think of way to build it more. Which brings me to this blog post. I've realized that I need to book more photo session to build my portfolio and ultimately bring in more business so in order for me to do that I have decided on a spring promotion.

Starting now until March 31st if you book a photo session with me you'll receive (1) Free 8x10 as well as half off all other prints! You're session can be anyday you want just as long as you book it with me before March 31st! For questions, please contact me!

And since every post is so much better with pictures I'm going to post some pictures of Miss Addie that I never got to post!

If you remember correctly, a few post ago I put a little teaser up from a photo shoot I did with a large family. Actually it was 13 people in all! I was hoping it would go well and I was pleasantly surprised when I met everyone! They made me feel like family and I saw a lot of qualities that my own family have as well. I couldn't post much about them until now due to the pictures being Christmas presents but now I am very happy to get to show of this wonderful family! Enjoy!
