Now you know I can't show you everything we shot today during our 6-hour photo shoot. First of all, I've barely got enough energy to eek out this tasra365 daily post. Secondly, patience is a virtue so it'll be good for you to wait a bit. Okay, I'll be honest, it's really more about the first reason... the second is just a byproduct.

To top it off, tomorrow is the … [Read more...]
Today's word of the day was... EDGY. Our home and studio were temporarily taken over by teen girls in preparation for our first Teen Identity Models photo shoot of 2010. The bedroom exploded in clothes and there was a full-on salon happening with hair, makeup, nails, and stylists getting everyone ready. We're preparing to launch our new model program for 2011 Seniors and are so excited … [Read more...]
Okay, maybe perfect isn't the right word. I wouldn't say my product shot is technically perfect, but it's perfect for what I need. I've been wanting to take some product shots for my business for a while to put them on my Teen Identity website. But, it just became one more thing on my to do list. Since I was sending out this CD with images and video to one of my senior portrait clients, I … [Read more...]
