Dann and Bob saw my earlier urban couple shoot and contacted me to do a shoot for them. They have been married for 12 years and it’s so nice to see a couple that enjoys each other’s company so much! We had a wonderful time wandering around Liberty Village and finding cool backdrops for the images. Thanks for the fun afternoon guys!

These photos of my test 8″ x 12″ metallic prints do not do them justice! Metallic paper adds a stunning visual look and is particularly effective with highly saturated colour shots and high contrast black and white images. The unique pealescent metallic undertone and high gloss gives your images an almost three dimensional depth. Samples will be shown during in-person proofing. All metallic prints are mounted. Please see my photography packages page for pricing information.

With additional products/pricing to be added soon!

Additions include:
Coffee Table Books
Gallery Stretched Canvases
And now included with each digital package (and any image purchased larger then 8″ x 10″) will be a low resolution water-marked image (as seen below) for use on your blog, facebook account, desktop and emailing to friends and family.

I will now be conducting in-person proofing with every session. Your session images will be presented on a laptop, samples of products will be presented and I will discuss options for your favorite images from the session.

Please see my photography packages page for more information. I look forward to providing this value added service to my clients.

2007 was a fantastic year! I met so many great new people, and had a wonderful time at each photography session! I truly love photography, and am just as excited to get home and see the images as I’m sure my clients are to see their sneak peek, on my blog, and then their private on-line gallery. Thank you to all of you who have made my first year in business so fulfilling!

I have chosen a favorite image from each of the past year’s sessions. It wasn’t easy to pick my favorite! I could certainly never decide on my top three, so I’m going to let you make the decision for me!

Please choose your favorite image by using the poll at the end of the post. The person(s)/parents of the subject(s) featured in the top three photos will each receive one print of their winning picture! 1st place receives a 20″ x 24″ print, 2nd place a 16″ x 20″ print and 3rd place an 11″ x 14″ print. The poll does log IP addresses, so only one vote per computer will be counted!

For those of you appearing in the chosen photos, you are welcome to enlist friends and family to vote for your photo. Just remember that each person may only vote once. Fraudulent voting patterns will result in the photo being withdrawn from the contest.

For Torontonians who aren’t in the contest, here’s what you get for your vote—a chance to win a free photography* session with me! Here’s how it works: after you vote, leave a comment on this blog posting. I will randomly choose one person from the list of comments to receive a free photography session*.

The contest runs until 5 pm on January 17th with the results announced on my blog on January 18th.

Good luck everyone! I can’t wait to see the results!

Happy New Year!
Holly

Can be seen hanging on the walls at my friend George’s beautiful flower shop.

Here’s a framed photograph from a recent couple shoot:

Here’s a framed photograph from a recent newborn shoot. It is absolutely gorgeous framed:

Here’s a framed photograph of my daughter, shot this past summer:

Here is a Lensbaby G3 shot of a flower from Urban Eden Flower Shoppe:

This one was shot with my 100 mm f2.8 macro lens:

A colourful example shot with the Lensbaby G3:

I will post some more examples, of flowers from George’s Flower Shoppe, over the coming days.

Yet another one from the O-Family Shoot, now that I’ve finished processing the session I have some new favorites! So this is Shannon (who bought the session as a birthday present for Chris), and Chris. Taken with the lensbaby G3 with the heart shaped creative aperture disk installed, then a texture and edge effect applied in PS. A cute couple shot with the hearts in the background!

…are now available! A perfect gift for the upcoming holiday season! A birthday gift, for the person who has everything. A memorable gift for the newly engaged couple, or a unique anniversary gift! Looking for a special baby shower gift? A maternity/newborn shoot would make a wonderful gift that the parents would treasure forever!

Please see my website for further details!

It’s Jeff & Krista’s anniversary tomorrow (Happy Anniversary!!!!), and my father’s birthday, and an anniversary of my own as well…guess I won’t forget your anniversary next year J & K!

We did a cool urban photo shoot yesterday afternoon…we managed to avoid the rain, which was fortunate as it was so windy!

Here are some of the photos:

Here is Krista, at the beginning of the shoot.

Together:

A lensbaby shot:

At the loading zone:

The following are all shots from at cool bench we found:

Love how happy and comfortable they are with each other in this one:

Think I’ll call this gate the ‘kissing gate’ from now on!

This one is kind of an outtake of the series (right above), where I threw the focus to them…I LOVE it—probably one of my favorites of the shoot:

There was this awesome painted wall, how could we resist shooting some with it in the background? We couldn’t!

Thanks Jeff & Krista! I’d shoot you two any time! Hope you have a great day tomorrow for your 13th!
