2007 Home and Garden Show

Immediatly following our return from Iowa we set up for the annual Home and Garden show at the lancaster event center. We had a great turnout! Many stopped to see our new products and book a session. It is always so much fun to see everybody out and about. Esspecially on such a freezing cold weekend!

Our booth changed this year thanks to Cesar's handiwork! We recieved many comments and heard many nice stories from so many of you . The big hit this year were the addition of our jewelry and handbags as well as our Designer Portraits.
We can't wait for next year!

Iowa Conference

In Feb. we traveled to Iowa to attend the Iowa state convention for professional photographers. It was such a great experience - not only were we able to meet back up with Karn and Barry from Daytona, we also had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful and talented photographers!

It was a great time - we learned so many great things. It is always refreashing to take a step back and look at what we are doing and how we can change to better the studio.

This was Hillary's first conference and it was really exciting to see her eyes light up when listening to the speakers. It is great for our studio to have someone who's mind never stops turning with ideas, although she doesn't always see it as a gift! :)

New Jewelry!

We are so excited about our new jewelry line! The products we have selected for the studio are so great - we can't wait for you all to see them. We have ordered several pieces for studio samples. Here are just a few of the pieces for you to drool over!

Daytona SPI conference

We started out this year traveling to Daytona Beach to attend the annual Senior photographers international conference. We learned tons and met even more great people! While walking through the trade show we met Karen and Barry - (owners of our new jewelry line) and Judy, who works with them. We had a great time hanging out and taking pictures - also a quick run through the ocean at midnight makes for a funny story. (We since found out that this is apparently a bad idea with Daytona being the shark bite capital of the world - yikes!)




We were also blessed to be able to meet up with Sandy Puc' and Dave Junion - founders of N.I.L.M.D.T.S. One of the most amazing organizations I've ever known and I am so proud to be a part of it. Amzingly wonderful people with huge hearts - thanks for all your kind words!






Cesar and I took some great shots while we were there - he's becoming quite the photographer now, wheather he likes it or not! All in all, it was a wonderful learning experience and we were able to walk away with so many great ideas for the studio, can't wait to try them all out!
