Printed!

I am just giddy today with the arrival of my first magazine to have my photos in. Includling the cover I had photos on a total of 5 pages (WOW)!! Here are some pictures of the magazine itself so that you can all feel giddy with me!

Exciting News!

I am so excited because it finally seems like opportunities are appearing for me here in Austin as a photographer. Obviously with my previous post in the magazine being one of them. I was also asked to donate a photo shoot in an Auction for the Catholic Schools Yearly Auction that they hold here in Austin. This is a huge way for me to get out to parents because they will see the items before auction, go to my site and check it all out and then be able to bid on the shoot. I am thrilled! And then I was told that my name was given for a possible career day volunteer in the middle school to talk about what I do. I cannot wait! I really hope that the business here picks up in the spring and summer. And then last I have been asked to do my second wedding. Weddings are sparse here as is and hard to book if you are new to them so any chance I can get to do it I will jump! This one should be exciting because they are looking for a really modern edgy urban look so it will be a bit different than my last one. So here is to hoping for more business here in Minnesota!!

Student Life Magazine

I am so excited to be branching out into other areas of photography. I was asked to photograph a classroom at the local high school here in Austin for the Student Life Magazine. It is a small magazine that is delivered to tons of local business and of course students of all ages around here. In return I received a full page add in the paper. This is exactly what I needed...I seemed to be struggling getting my name out here in this small town with out breaking my bank, especially to seniors. I hope this does the trick! Here are the photos for the magazine and then the page ad I created for paper. Let me know if you like it!

Here is the ad I created! (everything had to be really light because it is on newspaper material)

This is a scenic photo of the actual Austin High school This is the class being recognized in the paper. They are the High school Newspaper Class (Sentinel is what the paper is called)
My favorite shot of the shoot was definitely this one.
A picture of the one of the schools hallways for the paper.
And the teacher of the newspaper class who is also being recognized in the magazine.
