Finally I am Back to The Blog……..

Wow, how times flies.  It seems like I was just planning for Valentine’s Day, and here it is time to start thinking about Father’s Day.   If you did not already know, I spent two weeks in April in Hawaii both working and playing.  Here is a picture of my son dreaming of the big surf for the day!  I want to post more Hawaii picture, but I having some trouble with the new picture feature, so more to come.  Also,  more to come later on Father’s Day Specials.

Faces of Love

Here is a quick sample of a recent engagement shoot.  I just LOVE all the faces.  These two were so much fun!

Shooting in my own backyard!

Those of you that have done photoshoots with us recently know that we have been shooting in my home studio.  One of the HUGE advantages of shooting at my house is that we are attached to a public area that is AWESOME for shooting environmental portraits.  Check out some of these recent pictures to see what I mean!  Also, don’t forget that we are still booking bunny shoots.  E-mail me at blueskysstudio@gmail.com if you want to book a baby bunny shoot.

Baby Bunnies are Back at Blue Sky’s Studio!

We have less that four weeks until Easter and the end our our bunny promotion!  Don’t miss this opportunity to get darling photographs of your children with our four baby bunnies (a fifth one is on the way next week).  Many of you know that each year we celebrate Spring with live bunnies.  The kids absolutely love playing with these little guys, and we always manage to capture the sweetest pictures.   In addition, we adopt these bunnies out to members of our Blue Sky’s family (that’s YOU!) for free.  Each bunny comes complete with a small cage, food, litter and a water bottle.  They make wonderful pets because they have been cuddled so much in our studio.  So far our little Lop Eared Bunny has already been adopted, but the other four our looking for new homes.  If you are interested in getting one of your kids a Blue Sky’s Bunny for Spring, please e-mail us at blueskysstudio@gmail.com.  This will be on a first come first serve basis.   Right now our studio promotion is $49 for a 30 minute shoot if you book by March 5th.  After March 5th you will still get a great deal at only $69 for the shoot.  We have Easter hats, props and additional clothing that you can use in the studio.  If you want hairstyling services, please check back or e-mail us as we will have a few days set up with styling services.

 If you would like your bunny pictures in the great outdoors, please check back for our outdoor schedule and dates.   This will be posted in a few days!   The bunnies are looking forward to playing with your kids soon!

Happy Late Valentine’s Day!

Okay, after all the healthy food, exercise, lots of water and vitamins, I still managed to catch the miserable flu that is going around.  I am now on my 5th day in bed and getting kind of cranky!  Today I did manage to get my Valentine card done for my husband and family.  I thought I would share it with all of you!  Happy late Valentine’s Day with lots of love and highest hopes that you don’t catch this year’s flu!  LOL Kristin

 

Tomorrow’s Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day, early.  Check out this cute Valentine’s card from one of our Blue Sky’s Family.  More great Valentine’s Pictures to follow!

Is it already February?

I always feel behind!  Just when I am getting use to writing 2008, it February and I start to dream about baby bunnies and Spring photo shoots.  FYI- The baby bunnies will arrive this year right after Valentine’s Day- February 23.  We have scheduled tons of photo shoots for Mom’s Clubs and other charities (a percentage of every package sold is given back to their selected charity), so if you are interested in capture your little one’s with baby bunnies, book soon!  Having said that, the studio will be closed for midwinter break from February 16-22 so if you need to get in touch with us, just send us an e-mail to blueskysstudio@gmail.com.

Check out this super duper cute collage that Jinna just created for one of our clients!  Collages are a great way to capture the essence of your child, and you get lots of pictures in the bargin!

Valentine’s in the Park

The weather is beautiful, the park is quiet and I LOVE shooting in January.  Here are a few samples of Kasey (my daughter) in the park.  Don’t forget that you can book your park or studio shoots now at our promotional Valentine’s Day pricing.  Scroll down to see the specials for January.

 

Valentines Day

Isn’t it interesting that within two weeks the holiday decor has been removed and replaced with pinks, reds, and whites in celebration of St. Valentine’s Day? Well, this year let your kids share the families love with these great gift ideas:

• Painted Glass Containers for a bouquet of flowers (using acrylic paint is the best, but please note it will not last forever)
• Homemade Pictures Frames to put Blue Sky’s photographs of your little gems as angels (Micheals has the frames) (sign up for our Valentine’s Day special for your shoot today- click on the specials tab at the top)
• Baked Breads (Cranberry bread even has red specks, all you need is a pink or white plate and dish towel)
• Make Luminaries with glass baby-food jars (just cut up tissue paper into different shapes and let the kids Mod Podge [found at any craft store] the glass and the tissue, slip in a tea-lite candle and wrap it us)

Hope that you enjoy these craft ideas. If you have more feel free to email them to us at blueskysstudio@gmail.com or post a comment! The more ideas the better, especially with the Martin Luther King holiday coming up!

Check back soon for some of Blue Sky’s Valentine’s Day photography and cards.
