{A Look Back at 2011}

At the end of each year, since my business began, I like to take a little walk down memory lane. I do this for several reasons:

1) To reflect on the growth that has occurred throughout the year.
2) To evaluate what I need to work on in the upcoming year.
3) To remind myself just how blessed I am, and that this business and my wonderful clients can never be taken for granted.

I was lucky enough to do over 50 photo shoots in 2011. Many of my clients either had multiple sessions throughout the year or referred others to my business. I am so grateful!!! YOU are the foundation of this business, which is a dream come true for this girl.

Here's a look at some of my favorite shots from 2011. I hope you enjoy!

"Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?" Isaiah 43:19

I do! I just know 2012 will be great! I hope you all have a VERY blessed new year!

Modeling Opportunity {Wellington Children's Photogrphy}

I am looking for some fresh faces for my professional portfolio and I am REALLY wanting to try out some new ideas. Please give me a call if you are interested in a free modeling opportunity for your child. Space is limited (5 children total, but I have already booked one of the sessions) and I want to shoot on January 29th and 30th (either @ 8 am or 5 pm).

I will waive the session fee ($75 value) and provide a free 11x14 of your favorite image. In exchange, I will require you to sign a model release allowing me to use the images in my advertising, and on my website or blog. No additional print purchase is required, but is always welcomed and appreciated.

Requirements:

Girls Ages 6-9 and 12-15

Boys Ages 6-9

Guidelines:

I will be choosing the location and styling the session. I will only be shooting in Wellington or downtown WPB. I will provide you with a "look" I want for the shoot. You can bring some clothing and accessories, and I will bring some as well. Together, we should be able to get the perfect style for the shoot. In your inquiry, please include your child's clothing and shoe size so that I can be on the look out for some great finds!

Please keep in mind that these will not be traditional portraits. I am going for something a little more dramatic and artsy than usual. I really want you to enjoy and appreciate these photos, but I also need a very specific type of image for my portfolio...so I will need to call the shots. If this is not your cup of tea...that's okay! Maybe I will need models for more traditional shoots in the future. Stay tuned!

Please respond by email to bburtch@angelkissesphotography.com.

Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you!

South Florida Portfolio Photography - ***The Make-Up Shake-Up***

Lauren Davidson, the artist behind the Make-Up Shake-Up, is wonderfully talented and genuinely cares for her clients. She is VERY reasonably priced and will travel, make-up kit in hand, to wherever you are. She came to my house and fancied Tatiana (our wonderful, beautiful nanny) up for a photo shoot. She was gracious enough to to give me a plug on her website, so I want to return the favor. Check out Tatiana's "before" and "after" and then a couple from the shoot. Call or email Lauren for any and all things make-up related!
