Special sessions are also available in the Youngstown, Ohio area throughout the year.

Product Spotlight: Storyboards to Display Your Portraits

Many of my clients have purchase storyboards in addition to gift prints, albums and large wall art. The storyboards are one of my favorite products to offer since you can display multiple portraits in one large print. Storyboards are available in a desk sized 5×10 and wall sized 10×20. New for 2010, I am offering the 10×20 as a float wrap, you won’t even have to buy a frame for this version since it’s ready to hang when you receive it! Looking for a custom size to fit a particular frame? Don’t worry, I can do that as well. Here are two recent examples that clients selected. They are perfect children and high school senior portraits as well as your dog’s portrait session!!

Out Of The Office

I will be out of the office from Thursday, August 26 – Sunday, August 29th with very limited access to email and phone calls. If you need to reach me during this time, please send me an email and I will be returning emails when I return Sunday evening.

And because no blog post is complete without a photo – poor Baxter had surgery yesterday. Nothing major, he had his dewclaws removed and they also removed of two growths. Baxter just turned 7 last Friday, what a lousy birthday gift this was! I of course had to take a quick pic of him while he was over-medicated on the couch. Now that all the drugs have worn off, he’s back to normal and has minimal discomfort. Funny enough, when I’m home alone with him he acts like he’s having a rough time, but when his “dad” comes home he’s much better. Smart dog, he knows that I’ll coddle him if he’s not feeling well!

August 27, 2010 - 3:44 pm Ellen Dykstra- Kalamazoo MI photographer - Awww.. get well soon, Baxter!

August 25, 2010 - 11:46 pm Lisa Adams - Hope you enjoy your time away and your 4-legged friend heals quickly!

Paige’s Senior Portrait Session in Downtown Columbus

I couldn’t have asked for a better senior portrait session yesterday. Perfect weather and a fun senior – what a great mix!! Paige, her mom and I met up to start her photos at Franklin Park Conservatory. I was surprised and excited when they got out of the car to see that Paige’s dog came along for a few photos! After the Conservatory we headed down to North Bank Park to capture some more images. Here are just a few of the photos from her session – thanks Paige for picking me to do your senior portraits!!

Chrissy’s Head Shots in Gahanna

Chrissy and I met up in Gahanna last weekend for some quick head shots before her vacation in California. The Creekside area was packed because it was such a beautiful evening. The light was great for her portraits and there was a slight breeze, it was perfect conditions. Here’s a few teasers for Chrissy who I hope is having a great time out in California — hopefully she’ll bring back some of that amazing weather to Ohio!
