A New Wedding Album

2010-03-09T21:44:00.000-08:00

This album was incredibly special! It was designed for a client in Nebraska (yeah!!!) and was for the bride's mother. I've not created any albums for a parent like this so it was unique and a lot fun! I enjoyed designing this album so much and had many favorite spreads...it was very hard select just a few to post!

Dearest Denise, thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to create this very special album for you, I enjoyed working with you very much! It was such a pleasure meeting you and hope we stay in touch!!! Let me know what Ashley thinks of the album too!
Many blessings to you and your family!!

Jennie Fresa Beauty Library

2010-02-09T20:13:00.000-08:00

I recently had the pleasure of working with a very dear client of mine again, Jennie Fresa. I started working with Jennie a few years ago and have been able to watch her grow and accomplish her dreams. She went from having an online beauty library and working out of her home, to having her very own location...which I someday hope to see in person...to even starting her own mineral makeup line called JF Minerals! The beauty library and mini-spa is now located in a beautiful "red house" and has been decorated to fit Jennie's colors and style.

Please be sure to take a look at Jennie's site, www.jenniefresa.com - we've made changes to her links, the services she offers and have added some very incredible images.

Thanks again Jennie, it's always such a pleasure working with you. Congratulations on everything you have accomplished and many, many blessings to you!

I am so proud of my mom...she took an interest in photography a few years back and has come a very long way. She began by taking my engagement pictures, my maternity pictures and went on to capture the precious milestones of my daughter. We started photographing weddings and she has increasingly been doing photo sessions of families, children, seniors and more. I'm very proud of you mom, you've done a great job pursuing something you were interested in and you should be very proud of where you are. Keep up the fantastic work! I love you!

Speaker for Priceless Prints ® - Norfolk After 5 Club

2009-01-21T08:41:00.000-08:00

I am so honored...I was contacted and asked to be a "Special Feature" speaker at the Norfolk After 5 Group in February. They would like me to talk about the Priceless Prints and give ideas on what you can all capture with these pendants. This is a group of approximately 100 women where meetings are held once a month. I am very excited to be a part of this!

Please view the invite below!

Prairie Creations Priceless Prints®

2008-12-06T08:36:00.000-08:00

I am very excited to introduce to you, Priceless Prints® by Prairie Creations! This is original, hand-crafted, free-form pendant jewelry charms made in .999 fine silver.

My interest began when my husband and I were given a Priceless Prints® Pendant Kit when we miscarried our son at 17 weeks. Someone very special to me sent the kit for us to capture his tiny little fingerprints on the pendant. I can't begin to explain all the emotions that came to me when I saw all of his little fingers on this beautiful piece of jewelry. Shortly thereafter, I ordered an additional kit so I could have our 3 year old daughter's print on a pendant as well. These pendants are truly one of the most treasured pieces of jewelry I've ever owned, and even though we lost our son so early on, I feel like he is always with me.

To purchase a kit, please visit the Priceless Prints® page on my web site for ordering information. Toward the bottom, you will see the heading called "How to Order" and a link to download the form.

I look forward to hearing from you and helping you to create your own priceless treasure. I know that your pendant will be just as meaningful to you, as my pendants are to me.

Brides' Girl Friday

2008-07-26T08:35:00.000-07:00

I recently had the pleasure of working with a dear client, Karen St. Clair, again. Karen owns Just In Case Gift Kits and has recently come up with another brilliant idea...Brides' Girl Friday. What a go getter!

She started this new business to assist the bride (and groom) before, during and after their wedding. Brides' Girl Friday will run errands, attend appointments, wrap gifts, pick up guests at the airport, help the bride get ready before the ceremony, re-steam the bride's dress, check makeup, take dress to be dry-cleaned, take bride and groom to the airport for their honeymoon and pick them up when they return, and so much more.

Great job Karen, I love Brides' Girl Friday!!! Keep me posted!

I had the pleasure of working with an incredible photographer from Lincoln, NE, Paula Guerrero with Captured Memories Photography.

There were so many great images to pick from when designing this album so I really had a lot of fun putting it together. I hope the bride and groom love it as much as I do!

Thank you so much Paula, for giving me the opportunity to work with you on this design! You did a wonderful job capturing this bride and groom's wedding day. So many incredible images! I look forward to designing for you and your clients again!

2008-01-13T08:17:00.000-08:00

I was going through my blog this morning and realized that I mentioned designing and developing a fantastic site for Jennie Fresa, a wonderful makeup artist in Connecticut. Her business is called, Jennie Fresa's Beauty Library.

Jennie has become not only a client but a friend and I have truly enjoyed working with her and getting to know her. She is such a sweet and caring person. If I were to get married again, I would be sure to fly her here so she could be the makeup artist for my special day.

Thanks Jennie for all you have done, I have enjoyed working with you and getting to know you. I look forward to continuing our friendship and working relationship as well.

There is a wonderful person named Bev Skillstad who has been taking care of children since 1987. I had the pleasure of not only working for her when I was in high school and in between college classes, but also recently worked with her in designing a business card that is a little larger than the typical size. This business card is designed at 2.75 x 4.25 and looks fantastic!

Thank you so much Bev, for allowing me to take part in the creation of your card. It looks wonderful!

Congratulations Dad & Connie

2007-11-01T07:59:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to send out a Congratulations to my dad and his new wife, Connie! They have been happily dating for over 15 years and on October 13th, they took their vows to become husband and wife. Below are some pictures that were taken throughout the day of the wedding.

Best wishes! I love you!

I Repelled off a 60-foot Tower!!

2007-10-03T07:53:00.000-07:00

My husband is on the SWAT team and they were doing some training yesterday. My husband asked me if I would take some photos of them which I was happy to do. So toward the end, I was getting up enough courage to want to try and repel myself. I didn't have any tennis-shoes on so I was told to go barefoot, no big deal. My biggest fear was getting over the side of the building so they were nice enough and had me go out the top window; however, I didn't feel too confident in getting that accomplished at first. So instead of trying to get into the correct position right from the window, I sat on the edge, put my legs straight out and Don pushed me right out and there I was, hanging in mid air! Had to try to calm my breathing because I am terribly scared of heights. Once I got that partially under control I was able to slowly make my way down the side of the building. What a RUSH! But seriously, how often would I have a chance to do something like that again! It was worth it.

I'll be adding a slideshow of pics I took of all the guys...look for that soon. In the meantime, check out the pics of me making my way down...

Portfolio Items

2007-10-01T07:51:00.000-07:00

Wanted to quick note that I have some new designs posted in my portfolio page. I just completed an awesome web site for Jennie Fresa, a makeup consultant specializing in bridal makeup located in Connecticut. It was a lot of fun putting her site together.

I also have a new testimonial posted. Some of my recently designed albums are there for viewing so please take a few moments to look through them. I would like to specialize in the creation of wedding albums but there are many other albums that can be designed too. Some of which would include an album from a newborn session, a children session, or maybe an album from multiple sessions such as a newborn up to being 1 year old. In my spare time, I will try to create one of my daughter and get that posted. Other album designs could include images from a high school senior session or even a family photo session.

And if you are wondering... my mom is on her way to becoming quite the photographer so if you or anyone you know are in need of a photographer, please contact us! I do intend on creating a few pages for her photography to be listed on the web site as well. So look for that sometime soon!!!

The Kissing Couple

2007-07-09T07:43:00.000-07:00
