The Current National Model Search Winners…

Posted in Uncategorized on January 28th, 2010 by Amy

d2x_2453-copy.jpgThe current winning family for the Austin/San Antonio/hill country area in the National Charity Model Search is the Coward family!

(The attached portrait is the current winning image and was taken over the Thanksgiving holiday, along the Guadalupe River.)

As the current winner, the Cowards were invited to drive to Austin to pose for a photography conference that is currently touring the country.  As models, they served as a teaching device for all budding and novice photographers in the room.  As the winners, they will also be receiving all of the images taken last night free of charge.

We were thrilled to learn that one of our portraits was a winning image!  And we were very excited for this opportunity for the Coward family.  Congrats, guys!!!

But there is still time to join the competition.  And there still are lots of great prizes, including portrait purses, canvas prints… and a new car!!!

Call today to join in on the excitement- 888-311-5207.

New Background/Set- Panel Wall

Posted in Uncategorized on September 23rd, 2009 by Amy

d2x_6973-copy.jpgJust wanted to highlight a new d2x_6970.jpgbackground we created this month.  Nathan and I purchased a bunch of decorative ceiling tiles and created a wall out of it.  It’s going to be a great spot for beautiful children’s and even family portraits.  It will especially look great with more formal clothing, and I can’t wait to use it for Easter!

The wall is constructed in the studio, so it can be used during any studio session, with a rug or on our stained concrete floor.  So consider it when planning your next indoor portrait appointment.

Supporting Our Schools

Posted in Uncategorized on September 21st, 2009 by Amy

We just invested in the future…

We purchased ad spaces in all the local schools’ PTO directories, doing our part to support your child’s schools- Fabra, Curington, Kendall, and Cibolo Creek.

Let us know if we can help with any fund-raising events!  We’d be happy to make donations.

New Background/Set- Tin Wall

Posted in Uncategorized on September 7th, 2009 by Amy

d2x_5821-copy2.jpgd2x_5342.jpgJust wanted to highlight a new background we created last month.  Nathan and I purchased a few sheets of corrugated metal roof material and created a wall out of it.  It’s going to be a great spot for really cool children’s and teen portraits.  It will especially look great with bright clothing!

The wall is constructed on the side of our home, so it can be used during any studio session.  So consider it when planning your next indoor portrait appointment.

New Background/Set- Old Barn Wall

The wall and scene are constructed on the side of our home, so it can be used during any studio session.  So consider it when planning your next indoor portrait appointment.

Still wanted for the set- an old wagon wheel.
