She is getting so old...she is so purdy! AND She is the hardest dog to photograph b/c she is black! But, here is a shot of her that is decent! LOVE HER! Look at her gray hair on her face! Awwww...she will be 10 next week! Can you believe it?? BEST DOG EVER!!!! :)

Unique Session!

Finally had another session...and something different! YAY! My husband's boss hired me to photograph their weekly lunchtime basketball game in DC...on a very cool court with a graffiti wall alongside it. it was a GORGEOUS fall day and I REALLY enjoyed this job! These are only a few b/c I have to go to bed and don't have time to get obsessed with editing tonight! Diggin' the graffiti backdrop! Woo hoo! :)

Tom's of Maine...insane!!

Okay, so my 2nd entry isn't out to enlighten one either, but I must say I do have some advice for those with a sensitive sense of smell...NEVER BUY TOM'S OF MAINE DEODORANT!! Oh my lord...I have been sitting at my desk all morning feeling like I am 3months prego! The smell is sooooooooooooo incredibly nauseating I think I am going to hurl...

Deep thoughts with Brett....have a nice day! :)

Brett is actually WRITING??? Jalepeno!! :)

That's right folks, Brett is creating a weblog! I DESPISE the word "blog"...it is one of those words that just IRK me to death, so you will NEVER hear me refer to my "blog"...just my buzz! :)

Well, that's the amazing extent of my first entry as it is time to go get the kiddies! Look forward to actually writing something interesting and enlightening for you one day! :)

Oh yes, and a new pic of Caiden from yesterday...can you believe he is almost 8??!! God I'm old.....

***PORTRAIT PARTIES!!!!!!

Okay, so I caught wind of a GREAT new idea in family photography...Portrait Parties! A good friend of mine, Reb, is doing them out in Wisconsin and they have been a HUGE success! So, I thought I'd give it try to see if there is any interest in good ol Virginia! :)

Here is how it works: Just like a Southern Living/Candle party, the host/hostess invites guests to participate in mini-photo sessions at his/her home or other location...and in return receives a print credit of 20% of total sales from the party. I will be happy to help you work out the details of your party, and will supply you with custom invitations. Guests receive a free mini-session, and in return will be required to purchase at least $75.00 in prints, which is due at the time of the mini session and held as a print credit towards their order.

Each mini-session will be about 20 minutes in length and is for up to four people. If a guest requires more than 30 minutes, or wishes to include more than four people in their session there will be a $50.00 fee.

I will bring a few backdrops to the party so the host need not worry about having the 'perfect' spot in their home. All I need is an average sized room with some good window light. Often I push the dining table out of the way and take advantage of patio/sliding glass doors. Or if the weather is nice, a shaded area in the yard for photos. In order to host a portrait party you must have at least 6 guests book mini sessions.

If you would like to host a party, please contact me at: cordeauphoto@gmail.com ! We can work out the details and explain how it works in more detail when I hear from you!! :)
