New SlideShow Posted with 2009 Images

Click here to view a new slideshow with images from 2009 Portrait Sessions.

Some great locations, I'm looking forward to going back for sessions this year.

Watch for the February newsletter coming out next week, are you on my distribution list?

The Intrepid Lens Newsletter

I don't know how I let so much time pass between blog entries - sorry 'bout that! Lots of holiday print orders kept me busy at the end of the year. Thanks to all my lovely clients for your business!

I've just sent out my January newsletter to subscribers. This month I'm featuring a January Print Sale, and new PDF pricing/info guides. If you're not yet a subscriber it's easy to sign up. There's a button on the right side of this blog, or you can email me directly at sandy@theintrepidlens.com to have your name added.

Upcoming newsletters will feature new photo packages, new What to Wear guides, Storyboards and more! Plus I'll be giving newsletter subscribers first choice of spring portrait sessions when I open up my schedule.

I'll do much better my blog entries this year...

New DVD Slideshow

Attached is a video featuring the clients who have booked me at local private school (I'll be having this running at my booth this weekend at their annual winter fair).

Just a sample of what your customized DVD from a session might look like - your photos, your music and different effects of course, these are all custom created with the personality of my clients in mind!

Beautiful Fall Days

Not all of my subjects are human!

We've been blessed with fantastic weather this week, and I took full advantage driving to Paris, Cambridge, Guelph, Erin - and of course my own backyard in rural Burlington which is where I found these beautiful creatures.

These horses were very friendly, in fact getting them to "act natural" took lots of waiting! At one point five of them were all up at the fence hoping for a nose rub (or more likely a snack). Kinda like the start of each "human" photo session with kids, it usually takes 10 or 15 minutes to get past the point where children feel that they need to pose and we start having fun. That's when the best shots happen, when everyone forgets that I'm snapping away!

Lakeside Senior Session

Aren't these two sisters beautiful?

We had a great time down on Bronte Rd. in Oakville a few weeks ago, a location with a great balance of nature, architecture and urban detail. The weather threatened to let loose - that "prestorm" sky is absolutely perfect for portrait images in its softness and hue. The session lasted about two hours, sure enough the rain started to fall just at the end.

These fall skies are great for outdoor images, especially later in the afternoon when the light is softer. There are still some October and November dates left!

Hanging out at Ancaster Mill

I had a blast with these two sisters a few weeks ago, they obviously enjoy each other's company! These photos were included in my newsletter that went out to subscribers yesterday. If you'd like to receive regular updates on session availability, new products, photo tips and specials - you can subscribe by clicking on the box to the right (if you're reading this through an RSS feed, click on the title of this post to get to the blog).

Have a terrific weekend!

Catching up on Portrait Session posts.....

Oh dear, I let myself get a little behind in posting...

Here a few images from a July session with two adorable sisters. I had the pleasure of photographing them last summer too, they've grown so much!
