Saturday's session

Another Saturday full of seniors. The one highlighted in this post is no stranger to Spectrum. Ken has photographed the family several times in the past. It's always good to see returning clients.

Great idea with the black background. Anytime the family has a portrait taken they snap one with a black background.



Doesn't she look great? Ken found some GREAT light during her sitting and took advantage of it :).

Side note to all Spectrum Seniors: We need your yearbook pose. If you have not told us what photo you want for the yearbook please check out your photos, pick which one you wan, and call Jeanne at 308.436.4422 with the number. Time is running out.

Senior Sitting

I apologize, I have neglected the blog! I was out of the office since last Wednesday and couldn't access the blog. But Im back! I wanted to give a shout out to my brother from another mother Justin. He is a senior this year and graduating from Gering. My mother has been on my butt to get his photos set up and naturally I procrastinated. But we finally got him into the studio. Thanks for sticking with me mom :).


We snapped about 40 shots. I want to get him outside with the dog Remi. Lets hope we have at least one more warm day. Wow, tonight it is suppose to snow!

I'll be back tomorrow with some more seniors. Oh yea, did I mention I took my CPR Instructor course this past weekend? Yea... now I can teach CPR. NICE!

Update on our Gallery Wraps

REFER TO THIS POST

Our Gallery Wraps are so awesome and sweet. We have had some pretty delicious comments about our new entry area with the wraps. Therefore, we are selling more and more!

I urge you all to check these bad boys out. No matter if we photographed you 5 years ago or 5 days ago we can make a canvas for you which would be a truly unique piece of artwork. I am just filling 4 more orders and have several others on the way.

We have everything set and ready to order away. Plan on having these things loaded to our online proofing system very soon. I would also expect a few photo sessions based on these coming soon (hint hint).

Our Children photograph will be changing to include Gallery Wraps as one of the many finished products. If you are looking for a some great photos of your child give us a call or email at designteam at spectrumphoto dot com.

Have a great Thursday everyone! I know I am.

Picking it up again




This past week we photographed several seniors AND we have several more on the books in the next two weeks. This is a great time to book your session if you want fall foilage. Repeat, call us to book your fall session this week!

I could post a few from each session every day which would make my blog posts go up and make readers keep visiting. Or I could post them all in one. What do you think?



Working on weddings today.

Tuesday, October 7, 2008

Check out this cutie




A few years ago I had the pleasure of meeting, and photographing their wedding, a great couple from Kimball. I can remember everything from Courtney and Jimmy (best man & maid of honor) to the reception having these killer cheese puffs. It was the first wedding where Spectrum implemented it's new style & workflow. And the couple was the coolest couple to work with.

Since then they have moved to Sidney and had their daughter. It was pretty cool to see them again and take photos of their precious daughter. And wow did she have her own way of doing things. It was more of "lets play with this" instead of your average "sit here and smile" session. I cannot wait until she is either old enough to walk or gets over her phobia of grass. That way we can get some killer shots outside!

Here's a few seniors

Happy October everyone. This week has been beautiful. The leaves are starting to change and the autumn air is a relief. I love this time of year.

We have been busting our butts working on school photos. Gering Elementary schools have been delivered and now we are working our customer service :). Anyone have any issues please contact us right away.






We have a few weddings to post as well. And I know, our website was to go online a while ago. That was put on the back burner so we could finish a few other things. But things are getting back on track. YES!

September 19, 2008 - Mitchell

Getting back on track finally. I should snap a few photos of my desk and show you how horrible it is. I cleared a few things up and busted on my wedding, which was totally amazing. I know I say that about every wedding, but this one did not disappoint.

You might remember the bride and groom from their engagement session a while back. I was pretty stoked about the photos we got then and I was pretty excited to shoot the wedding. Not to mention I was able to visit with some recent wedding clients.

It started off first thing at 8 a.m. (click photos to enlarge). While the guys were doing this...


and this...

The women were doing this...

and this...

The morning went great. I was able to hear stories and most of the time the bride and groom were on the phone talking with all of their family & friends. I can recall the bride mentioning how the groom was texting her like crazy. These two are so into each other. You know how some people just ooze love for one other and you could feel it in the air? Yea, thats what I was feeling. Now, fast forward 2.5 hours...




Probably my favorite getting ready shot:

The guys getting ready.


Check out the groom and the ring bearer. He was all smiles coming down the isle!

And the bride and groom. The church has some awesome light below this huge drive up foyer.

Love the dress. You don't see a black and white wedding dress much:


The ladies. Everyone was really close and the when we began photos the ladies kept making the bride laugh. Awesome!

My favorite sequence:

Another awesome shot:

During the ceremony the minister made the bride and groom look at each others hands. He explained how each set of hands would play a major role in their marriage. It was very touching.

Couldn't you tell they were so into each other?

Afterwards we took off to a hot spot for a few photos. The "end of the day" lighting was sweet.


CAKE!

And a very great speech:

And finally their first dance as husband and wife:

The couple was off to the mountains for a nice relaxing honeymoon. It was a pleasure getting to work on the 19th. I truly enjoy what I do and I am so thankful to meet such amazing people. It was also great to sit down and talk with others that I have worked with.
