calm before the storm | huntsville photographer

I realize things have been kind of slow around this blog lately and I appreciate those of you who have been checking in on me to see how things are going. I’ve had some exciting little projects going on (both personally and professionally) so blogging has taken a little bit of a backseat of late. I’m hoping to get back in the saddle in the next week or so though and I hope you’ll check back for some more regular posting. And then you can count on May to be a postapalozza around here. I usually only schedule 4-5 sessions per month to keep my home life/work life in balance since I have two young children at home. For a variety of reason (including a travel work/play trip to Dayton, OH) I have 12 sessions schedule for May. (YES! 12! shhh…don’t tell my husband!) So take my word for it, there will be lots to share in the coming weeks and months! And if you’ve been thinking about booking a summer session, now is definitely the time to get on the books. At this point I have started a waiting list for June, have some availability in July and am pretty open in August. I look forward to hearing from you!

Now, to keep things a little fresh and fun around here, check out my new favorite spot in the house!

Yesterday the man in brown delivered a huge collection o’ canvases that makes my heart go pitter patter everytime I walk by. I’m seriously in love. This gallery has four 9×9’s, a 20×30, and a 20×20…all above my couch! I know it can be hard for clients to visualize exactly how a large canvas or print will fit into their rooms but I hope this will show that with a little creativity your portrait art can make a real impact in your overall home design

My favorite part of my new wall is the way you can see the display through my front window. It’s amazing in the evening! Do you think my neighbors will think I’m weird if I prop myself in a lounge chair facing my house every evening? (scratch that, my neighbors already think I’m weird!)

For my display I chose the gallery wrap canvases which stand out two inches from the wall. I wrapped them all with a solid color khaki border. Delicious!

Previously my largest piece of art in that room was my 16×20 canvas…

she’s definitely still a keeper but she shares my love now with these babies…

Thanks for sharing my excitement! And because I want you guys to feel the love like I do here’s your chance to get in on some canvas goodness of your own:

All previous and future clients are eligible to win one of these little 9×9’s featuring an image from your session, of course! Just leave a comment here between now and then next time I blog (and who knows when that will be!) and I’ll enter your name into a random drawing. Here’s your chance to be rewarded for your blog loving loyalty!

STARTING…
