My husband was there to assist and we both enjoyed hearing about Jacob's plans to become an officer in the Marines! Since my husband and I are both former Army officers (my husband going through West Point and I through ROTC) it was nice to be able to share our experiences with him. <br /><br />So when Jacob showed up in a striped shirt I have to admit I was a bit wary of the combination. I always suggest solid color clothes b/c it keeps the attention on the face in a portrait. But Jacob's outfit definitely grew on me throughout the session and worked very well, I think, on the red-tiled wall.<br /><br />Here is a sneak peak for Jacob and his family. I look forward to showing them the rest this week!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob1-resize.jpg?t=1222111443"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob1-resize.jpg?t=1222111443" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob2-resize.jpg?t=1222111478"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob2-resize.jpg?t=1222111478" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob4-resize.jpg?t=1222111512"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob4-resize.jpg?t=1222111512" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob7-resize.jpg?t=1222111549"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob7-resize.jpg?t=1222111549" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob8-resize.jpg?t=1222111579"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Jacob8-resize.jpg?t=1222111579" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-21202787486318128412008-09-22T11:58:00.001-07:002008-09-22T12:15:26.650-07:00Jumping Ahead!Well there is more to share from my big road trip in August, but let me post some updates from a few recent sessions! This little cutie is Faith and she was a MOVER! She is only 8-months old but she was already crawling and definitely not interested in sitting still for her portrait!!! I think we still managed to do pretty well and got some definite keepers. We did the session at Faith's grandma's house and there was the cutest little dog there. Macy was adorable and I was happy to get a few quick portraits of her as well!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Faith3-resize2.jpg?t=1222110678"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Faith3-resize2.jpg?t=1222110678" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Faith20-mocha2-resize.jpg?t=1222110741"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Faith20-mocha2-resize.jpg?t=1222110741" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Macy2-resize.jpg?t=1222110788"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Macy2-resize.jpg?t=1222110788" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-24052104942612127312008-08-30T19:35:00.000-07:002008-08-30T19:42:46.145-07:00Next stop on the Road Trip!Well, after staying at my sister's for three nights we headed into San Jose to stay with our friends for three nights.

We started off taking two days to drive to the Sacramento area to see my sister and her family. We ALWAYS have a good time there, and my two nieces, ages 12 and 16 (at the time, 17 now!) were great with my kids. I was flattered that they wanted me to take Holli's senior pictures while I was there so I brought my "studio" with me so we could create some great indoor shots as well as some outside. Well, we just got back from our trip last Saturday after being gone for 3 1/2 weeks! I haven't been able to proof all the images yet but here is a bit of a sneak peek of what I have so far! I can't wait to show the rest!!!<br /><br />Holli has an AMAZING smile as I'm sure you can see.

He was in a good mood with big smiles.... a perfect combination for a perfect image! I love the bright colors in his shirt too.

What a great attitude and a fun lady! She is also the hair and makeup stylist, Susan Hayward, listed on the postcard below. <br /><br />As women, we are often the ones taking the pictures and rarely in pictures ourselves. Wouldn't it be nice to have a portrait of yourself that celebrates you? It doesn't necessarily have to be romantic or sexy.... maybe you are just after a classy portrait to display on a loved ones' desk. What better way to do it then with a hair and makeup stylist included in the session fee! I know this is an area I don't excel in myself and having a professional take care of my hair and makeup, especially for a portrait, would be essential!<br /><br />Don't be shy ladies, give me a ring!!!<br /><br />Julie DeGuia<br />Tri-Cities, WA<br />Photographer<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/BeautifulWoman.jpg?t=1213456939"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/BeautifulWoman.jpg?t=1213456939" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPhdLJTvfI/AAAAAAAAAR4/HXyCjz5kYU0/s1600-h/Susan4-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPhdLJTvfI/AAAAAAAAAR4/HXyCjz5kYU0/s400/Susan4-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211757085122084338" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPgzF_31-I/AAAAAAAAARg/E1IXhwuBHR8/s1600-h/Susan9-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPgzF_31-I/AAAAAAAAARg/E1IXhwuBHR8/s400/Susan9-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211756362185824226" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPhS1JUQ-I/AAAAAAAAARw/n8tWQSW4Fjk/s1600-h/Susan15-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SFPhS1JUQ-I/AAAAAAAAARw/n8tWQSW4Fjk/s400/Susan15-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211756907417846754" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-80007297310748876772008-06-11T12:29:00.001-07:002008-06-11T13:37:43.218-07:00My Little Angels.....Well, these were taken on Mothers' Day. It was my only request. No eating out at a fancy restaurant, no presents, no chocolate or flowers! I wanted new portraits of my kids! Let's just say my kids haven't grasped the concept of doing something they don't want to do in order to make someone else happy!! However, we did get it done and I AM happy with the results. I can't believe how fast these guys are growing..... I want to capture everything about them. But I'll take one expression at a time.<br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/BrandonPortrait1-resize.jpg?t=1213215957"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/BrandonPortrait1-resize.jpg?t=1213215957" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/AlexPortrait1-resize2.jpg?t=1213216546"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/AlexPortrait1-resize2.jpg?t=1213216546" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-42723985869000786762008-06-09T01:25:00.000-07:002008-12-11T13:46:41.578-08:00Three Boys!This session came about as a result of a drawing at a business open house. A wonderful lady won the complimentary session and two 5x7 images, a $160 value, and chose to use the session for her three boys! We were a little worried as the week came to a close and there were still very strong winds on Friday. But, it cleared up and calmed down and we had nice weather Saturday morning for the shoot!<br /><br />Her boys did great and I am quite pleased with the results! Here are a few favorites of each boy from the session.

The second night we got to meet one of my second cousins (whom I had never met) and his family! I wasn't planning on taking out my camera but in the morning I noticed the wonderful light coming in their dining room window and couldn't pass up the opportunity to get a few shots of Casie, my cousin's daughter. I think these turned out great and I am glad I broke out the camera for this quick 2-minute "session!" <br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjTfe4iI/AAAAAAAAAOo/c1p9uLeNXF8/s1600-h/Casie1-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjTfe4iI/AAAAAAAAAOo/c1p9uLeNXF8/s400/Casie1-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200086974024573474" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjTfe4jI/AAAAAAAAAOw/hdLYhihg3LY/s1600-h/Casie2-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjTfe4jI/AAAAAAAAAOw/hdLYhihg3LY/s400/Casie2-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200086974024573490" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjjfe4kI/AAAAAAAAAO4/z1Fyt64QA7I/s1600-h/Casie3-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCprjjfe4kI/AAAAAAAAAO4/z1Fyt64QA7I/s400/Casie3-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200086978319540802" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-48811525807216301232008-05-13T20:03:00.000-07:002008-12-11T13:46:42.759-08:00Catching Up!!!Well, I am a bit behind on posting here on my blog. We had a family vacation the first part of April and met three other families in Jamacia! We took our time getting there (not really by choice).... driving to Seattle April 1st, flying out April 2nd to Dallas for a one-night layover, and then getting into Jamacia on April 3rd just to get on a shuttle for 2 1/2 hours to get to the resort! But once we were there it was great and the highlight was definitely seeing our good friends from when we lived in San Jose, CA!<br /><br />Here are some scenic shots of our surroundings for the week. Not bad....!!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCpm1Dfe4fI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/XsuB52GSGg4/s1600-h/BeachScene-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCpm1Dfe4fI/AAAAAAAAAOQ/XsuB52GSGg4/s400/BeachScene-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200081781409112562" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCpo_jfe4hI/AAAAAAAAAOg/PAhTeAJtef8/s1600-h/BeachScene2-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/SCpo_jfe4hI/AAAAAAAAAOg/PAhTeAJtef8/s400/BeachScene2-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200084160820994578" /></a><br /><br />This was the beautiful view from our room.

One of the things we worked on was tough lighting situations. These Environmental Portraits were taken at 10am - not your best time for outdoor portraits! But we worked with the light and added some fill flash and/or a reflector to make these spectacular portraits! A special thank you to Judy and Sam for helping us out on this beautiful day!<br /><br />It is hard to tell in these small samples (as Environmental Portraits are meant to be printed BIG!!) but there is a twinkle in Judy's and Sam's eyes in each portrait and they look great!<br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Judy2-final-retouch-resize.jpg?t=1205474806"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Judy2-final-retouch-resize.jpg?t=1205474806" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/JudySam1-resize.jpg?t=1205475163"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/JudySam1-resize.jpg?t=1205475163" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/JudySam2-resize.jpg?t=1205475213"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/JudySam2-resize.jpg?t=1205475213" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Judy1-resize.jpg?t=1205475247"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Judy1-resize.jpg?t=1205475247" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-48327970431505527152008-03-07T10:58:00.000-08:002008-12-11T13:46:43.399-08:00Now in Ella Bella!I now have three large prints displayed in Ella Bella!

These are the images that made it onto the wall!<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GTZ3-fysI/AAAAAAAAANI/pugyGD2LeDc/s1600-h/Rory4a-store.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GTZ3-fysI/AAAAAAAAANI/pugyGD2LeDc/s400/Rory4a-store.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175079519557503682" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GS03-fyqI/AAAAAAAAAM4/pgP16PC9Sd0/s1600-h/ProofG-store2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GS03-fyqI/AAAAAAAAAM4/pgP16PC9Sd0/s400/ProofG-store2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175078883902343842" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GS1H-fyrI/AAAAAAAAANA/ovvekuKeObQ/s1600-h/Michael1-EyesRetouch-resize2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GS1H-fyrI/AAAAAAAAANA/ovvekuKeObQ/s400/Michael1-EyesRetouch-resize2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175078888197311154" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-53624304298274344202008-03-07T10:35:00.000-08:002008-12-11T13:46:45.499-08:00Birthday Party Portraits!Well, my daugther had her 4th birthday party the last weekend in February! The theme was a makeup party and each girl came in a pretty dress then we painted nails and applied a "light dusting" of makeup. As one of my thank yous for the parents I took a couple pictures of each of the girls and will print out a few images for them to have. I think they turned out super cute and here are some of the results! <br /><br />Unfortuately with all the shuffling of kids into the studio I didn't even notice my own daughter didn't make it in for a portrait. (Big sad face!)<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPWn-fygI/AAAAAAAAALo/A3LDSwmvnzo/s1600-h/Abbey2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPWn-fygI/AAAAAAAAALo/A3LDSwmvnzo/s400/Abbey2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075065676417538" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPXH-fyhI/AAAAAAAAALw/OwaDM2RS7T4/s1600-h/Allie2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPXH-fyhI/AAAAAAAAALw/OwaDM2RS7T4/s400/Allie2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075074266352146" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPXn-fyiI/AAAAAAAAAL4/6iqqa0cbdMo/s1600-h/Bella1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPXn-fyiI/AAAAAAAAAL4/6iqqa0cbdMo/s400/Bella1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075082856286754" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPY3-fyjI/AAAAAAAAAMA/8ymnrfanXu8/s1600-h/Ella2a.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPY3-fyjI/AAAAAAAAAMA/8ymnrfanXu8/s400/Ella2a.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075104331123250" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPaH-fykI/AAAAAAAAAMI/iJKRil1mf04/s1600-h/Erin2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GPaH-fykI/AAAAAAAAAMI/iJKRil1mf04/s400/Erin2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075125805959746" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP53-fylI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/uREdfJw77IE/s1600-h/Jaeydn2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP53-fylI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/uREdfJw77IE/s400/Jaeydn2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075671266806354" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP6X-fymI/AAAAAAAAAMY/jg5AlBMkQdA/s1600-h/Kaili1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP6X-fymI/AAAAAAAAAMY/jg5AlBMkQdA/s400/Kaili1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075679856740962" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP63-fynI/AAAAAAAAAMg/jftvNlysiT4/s1600-h/Kalie3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP63-fynI/AAAAAAAAAMg/jftvNlysiT4/s400/Kalie3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075688446675570" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP73-fyoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/I_-FQKvqVNA/s1600-h/Olivia1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R9GP73-fyoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/I_-FQKvqVNA/s400/Olivia1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5175075705626544770" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-60000505272602898252008-01-25T23:25:00.000-08:002008-01-25T23:50:44.149-08:00Boy Baby Session!And here is Mr. Little Man from last week. He was a mover but I managed to catch him in a relaxed pose and looking at the camera - double bonus!!! His mom thought he should have lasted longer during the session but he got cranky quickly. Well, it turns out he was coming down with the current flu bug and spiked a rather high temperature later that evening!<br /><br />This image and the image in my previous post have a special purpose - they will be featured hanging in Ella Bella, a local childrens' botique, sometime in early February! I am very excited about this and will post more later on this topic!<br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Michael1-EyesRetouch-resize.jpg?t=1201333630"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Michael1-EyesRetouch-resize.jpg?t=1201333630" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-14283454884879908382008-01-25T22:29:00.000-08:002008-01-25T23:41:53.859-08:00Girl Baby Session!This little sweethart had a pretty big audience "egging" her on. Mom, sister, great-grandma and an adult cousin! I don't think she knew quite where to look at first, but she definitely liked my flashing lights!!! She would look up and grin at those lights and then look back at her audience and be all proud of herself! But I think my favoite of the session was when I got her attention in a moment (if possible for a baby) of quite contemplation! This image was processed with a "Half Sepia" technique to give it a little more of an antique feel but also retain some of the warm colors. Check back soon, I will be adding more from this session!<br /><br /><a href="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Rory1a-HalfSepia-resize.jpg?t=1201330274"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px;" src="http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee161/jdgphotography/Forum%20Sharing/Rory1a-HalfSepia-resize.jpg?t=1201330274" border="0" alt="" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-17003049795701827092007-12-24T00:42:00.000-08:002008-12-11T13:46:45.834-08:00PUBLISHED!In addition to my portrait photography, I have been doing a little Commercial Stock Photography over the past several years. I submit mainly to a microstock agency called Shutterstock and have mostly just done it for fun, submitting some of the many shots I take of my kids, or non-people shots. In a microstock setup a photographer will rarely find out where their images are being used, but last month I got a nice surprise when a friend e-mailed me after seeing a photograph of my kids playing by the edge of the Columbia River in the American Rivers calendar sent to its contributing members. My kids landed the month of August and it just goes to show that sometimes all you need to have fun is some water and a bunch of rocks!! For more about the American Rivers organization go to www.americanrivers.org.<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R290Xq6vZmI/AAAAAAAAALQ/vx301UgfI-o/s1600-h/AlexBrandonRiver-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R290Xq6vZmI/AAAAAAAAALQ/vx301UgfI-o/s400/AlexBrandonRiver-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5147460849114244706" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-54167433990954416772007-12-24T00:32:00.000-08:002008-12-11T13:46:46.440-08:00Professional Education!Well, in November I went to several Photography Seminars to further my photographic education! One of these seminars featured a renowned digital retouching artist named Jane Conner-Ziser. After studying her methods of eye enhancement I decided to put the techniques to the test and used this image of a friend's daughter as my sample. I think the eyes turned out great (although she had pretty amazing eyes to begin with) and I can't wait to use these new methods on more images in the future!<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R29vmK6vZkI/AAAAAAAAALA/Y4JM9vPuRSY/s1600-h/Lynden2-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R29vmK6vZkI/AAAAAAAAALA/Y4JM9vPuRSY/s400/Lynden2-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5147455600664208962" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R29vmK6vZlI/AAAAAAAAALI/pXMfYePAqWE/s1600-h/LyndenEyes-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/R29vmK6vZlI/AAAAAAAAALI/pXMfYePAqWE/s400/LyndenEyes-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5147455600664208978" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-69351965190002884022007-11-07T14:50:00.000-08:002008-12-11T13:46:47.468-08:00Holiday Card SPECIAL!!!Well, here it is. My Holiday Card SPECIAL for this year. I will admit that this is not an idea I came up with on my own, but I have tweaked it to fit my own vision! Isn't this fun!! Each person gets their picture taken individually and any expression (goofy, serious, happy... etc) will work great! Then I will put the composite together and we are all done! While it would be ideal to have all family members together at the same time (it really is a fun session) I am able to work around busy schedules since each family member gets their picture taken individually!<br /><br />So the special is 50 holiday cards (5x7 Flat, 2-sided cards) with envelopes and one storyboard (11x14 or 10x20) for $250. This includes the session fee so you are getting $350 (session fee and products) for $250.<br /><br />If interested please call and set up your session as soon as possible as you will want your final order in time to mail out for the holidays!<br />509-205-4065<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzM5gMFWrQI/AAAAAAAAAKY/7S_GFmRdPQY/s1600-h/HolidayCard1-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzM5gMFWrQI/AAAAAAAAAKY/7S_GFmRdPQY/s400/HolidayCard1-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130507625667407106" /></a><br /><br />Here are the pictures individually so you can see them a little better!<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAY8FWrRI/AAAAAAAAAKg/29_r3NKpYYU/s1600-h/BrandonFull2-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAY8FWrRI/AAAAAAAAAKg/29_r3NKpYYU/s400/BrandonFull2-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130515197694749970" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAlsFWrSI/AAAAAAAAAKo/teK19R1r0C0/s1600-h/AlexFull2-LOR-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAlsFWrSI/AAAAAAAAAKo/teK19R1r0C0/s400/AlexFull2-LOR-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130515416738082082" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAw8FWrTI/AAAAAAAAAKw/aaH4NmNmK1o/s1600-h/JulieCrop-LOR-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNAw8FWrTI/AAAAAAAAAKw/aaH4NmNmK1o/s400/JulieCrop-LOR-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130515610011610418" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNA5sFWrUI/AAAAAAAAAK4/Zz0fpyydck8/s1600-h/TonyCrop1-LOR-resize.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pdD4-4gwxM8/RzNA5sFWrUI/AAAAAAAAAK4/Zz0fpyydck8/s400/TonyCrop1-LOR-resize.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5130515760335465794" /></a>Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-58993375792904340842007-11-05T16:43:00.000-08:002007-11-05T16:49:23.914-08:00Now Accepting Credit Cards!Now I know this is something that is expected these days, but for a small business it is hard to justify all the fees involved when you don't have a large sales volume every month. Well, I found a credit card merchant that met my needs and just signed up today! Now hopefully I can get the business coming through my doors to justify the expense!!!<br /><br />Speaking of business coming through my doors, check back in a couple of days to see my Holiday Card Special!!! It is a FUN ONE for sure!!!Julie DeGuiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17253919363111059449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8974529761923596938.post-64199782196723280162007-10-22T16:55:00.000-07:002008-12-11T13:46:48.189-08:00Fall FamilyWell, autumn is in full-swing here in the Tri-Cities!
