intro-post

Real Photography closed in December 2014 and is no longer accepting clients.

Thank you for your support over the years! Please follow me at my new personal blog: www.needlesandapen.com to keep up with my latest photography, craft, and nursing school adventures.

new to the blog

I’ve added a couple of neat features to the sidebar.

The google icon at the top will add a link to my blog on your google homepage.

The "subscribe" box is a way to have new entries emailed to your inbox instead of having to check for updates.

The visitors map is probably my favorite addition–it’s a fun way to see where my readers are checking in from!   Some of you are hanging out in pretty exotic locals!

I’ve also added a Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep banner on my main website splash page.  My application to their affiliate photographer program was recently accepted and I am now one of their volunteers. 

NILMDTS is a volunteer organization dedicated to helping families cope with infant bereavement by providing free photography services.  If you know someone who is affected by stillbirth, SIDS, or other infant death, visit the Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep organization website to find volunteer photographers in your area.  Every photographer provides the digital negatives, and most include DVD slideshows.  There is absolutely no cost to the family.

Too bad! :P

And there are lots more to come! :)

Meet Tucker, another Colorado Springs high school senior. He came to me via Brittany after his original set of senior portraits didn’t come out as well as he’d hoped. So there was just a teeny bit of pressure on me! :)

He’s an awesome guy and we had great time–we laughed a lot, and he was all over the jumping shot, which I am very much in love with!

I met Keagan last night in Manitou Springs for her senior portrait session. Not only is she beautiful, but this girl is so smart that she’s graduating a year early!

She also has something in common with my little guy–she’s an Air Force Baby, born to two USAF parents. She is here in Colorado Springs visiting her cousin, Ashleigh, whose senior portraits I took earlier this summer as part of my senior rep program.
