Season Moore Photography Blog http://www.seasonmoorephotography.com/blog A peek into the photography of Season Moore. Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:37:45 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5 en Sneak Peek and some updates! http://www.seasonmoorephotography.com/blog/2008/08/sneak-peek-and-some-updates/ http://www.seasonmoorephotography.com/blog/2008/08/sneak-peek-and-some-updates/#comments Tue, 19 Aug 2008 23:37:45 +0000 Season http://www.seasonmoorephotography.com/blog/?p=389 Well hello there!  I have undeniably fallen behind on the blog!  Things are very hectic here these days - wrapping up summer and looking ahead at a very full fall calendar.  I am shooting so much that time in the office is very limited - meaning emails fall embarrassingly behind and the blog just gets ignored all together.  But I so appreciate all of the kind comments you all leave - it makes me smile on even the craziest of days!  So first the updates:

August,  September and November (before my holiday deadline) are fully booked.  Thank you!  There are some remaining October dates, please contact me soon if you would like to book before the holidays and I will do my best to accommodate you.

Mini-sessions! Did that get your attention?!  I am getting tons, and I mean TONS of emails asking if I will be offering holiday mini sessions this year.  The answer is…I dunno!  Location is my biggest hangup - finding a lovely outdoor spot where we can set up camp all day can be tricky.  So, if you happen to have a beautiful yard or porch or field or other lovely spot and you wouldn’t mind sharing it with some of your newest friends in exchange of a mini session of your own (hint hint) drop me a note soon. This is open to new or current clients.  Tell your friends with the gorgeous to look here!  I will need to finalize these plans very quickly to give folks enough time to plan so email me today!

And now, on to the peek!  This sweet family managed to pick an August date and somehow end up with down right lovely weather.  I wasn’t sweaty through and through, the kid’s hair wasn’t soaked - it was wonderful!  And the result was just way too many proofs - sorry in advance J!

A new site is coming soon along with new offerings just for teens who want something just a little bit different. And Maggie here will be one of the featured teens on the new site, so you will be seeing more of her!

August - two session dates remain
September - ONE session date remains
October - Four session dates remain
November - booked for holiday delivery (November and December sessions after the deadline will be extremely limited)

So this is IT, including 2009 Seniors trying to get their fall sessions in.  And if you are expecting please contact me ASAP so I can allow time to be available for your new arrival.  So no pressure…ok, maybe just a little pressure!

And now to the cards - I have two sets, classic and holly jolly.  Love them!

How would you describe yourself? I would describe myself as a people person who loves to be a full-time mom and also very much enjoys being a part-time dentist. Being part-time allows me to give to my children while still pursuing the career I love.

A little about your business: I am an Associate dentist at Rich, Smith and Tart Dentistry. The practice is a very well established general dental office in the heart of North Raleigh. We see adults and children- very family oriented. I see children starting at age 2 or 3- based on how well you think your children would do. Often we start the first visit with the little ones just having a tour and getting comfortable. The practice started in the 1970’s. I joined as an associate dentist earlier this year.

This is not limited to models (although it’s ok if you are one!) but I am looking for a variety of kids ages 15-18 so if you ever wanted to be a model for a day, this is your time to shine! In the next few weeks I will be looking for different age groups and may have some more specific requests, but for now I need guys and girls in that age range of every different look, style and personality possible. We will be shooting in the next WEEK so you will need to be somewhat flexible with your schedule. I will give you more detailed information if you are selected for this round of shots. Very limited availability so don’t delay!

What do you get? Free pictures, that’s what! I plan on shooting about 20 or so shots of each teen although the final number will vary. I will include two 5×7s and a set of wallets of your favorite shots (and if you would like to order more you are more than welcome to).

So tell your friends! Send me an email with your name, age, city, and school you attend along with a snapshot of yourself. If you are under 18 have your parents send me that email. These photos may be used in print and on the web so a signed release will be required.

They have alot of love for each other and the kids were just as sweet as can be. It was somewhere in the ballpark of 150 degrees outside while we were shooting and we were attacked by angry mosquitoes but you would never know by the beautiful images!

So if you’re trying to view yours and it’s not coming up please give me some time to re create them. My husband and I celebrate our 9th anniversary today and the baby sitter is on her way but I am vowing to get these puppies back up before I leave.

Thank you for your patience!

Oh and look, she came with an adorable big sister too!  How lucky am I?!
