Cool New Blend

Here is a blend of two little fellows I made portraits of in May. Isn't it beautiful? I just love this. Avaiable as a 16x16 or 20x20.

Below is a birth annoucement I've been working on in a movie format. Love this, too, though it couldn't be more different than the one above.

Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep

Early last week, I photographed a sad and poignant session for the important organization where I volunteer. I know I've mentioned Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep on the blog before, but I think it's worth mentioning again, especially because the word about us has not spread very widely in these parts.

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep provides local volunteer photographers who will come to the hospital to do infant bereavement photography for families who are losing, or have lost, their babies. Most photographers offer not only the shoot gratis, but a slideshow set to music on DVD and a second DVD of high-resolution images. Last week I photographed a baby born early to a wonderfully warm and brave couple. Above is one of the beautiful photographs commemorating their young son.

Exuberance is Beauty

I've made a new wonderful blend. It's 16"x20" and can be printed either as a canvas or a print. Can you picture your own daughter's image here?

This is Julianne, and she's wearing one of our new and so fun poofs. This poof is pink with an orange ruffle, and it is simply the most delicious bit of clothing I've seen in a while. Julianne wasn't even in the mood for photographs, ham that she usually is. But the second she laid eyes on that skirt, away she went! It was all I could do to keep up with her. Come and have your little girls photographed wearing a poof! Studio or on-location--either would be great. Here Julianne is leaping off a garden bench. Let's get these great shots while the sun is still shining.

PORTRAIT PARTY JULY 21!

Check out these uber cool babios, eh?



Good news, folks. After a billion requests, we've finally got a new website address for everyone sick to tears of keying in all the ridiculous letters in my name! And we've probably even settled on a new business name (although we'll probably take some time to morph).

It's new, it's simple, it's easy as pie now to either enter our url--

www.janephoto.ca

--or to write to us--

jane@janephoto.ca
info@janephoto.ca

So get those fingers to typing it in and spreading it 'round!

There's a new portrait party the morning of July 21st!

We're just starting to get the word out now, and we're already half booked. If you want to see the photos from the last shoot, visit my site under Portraits/Menu/Proofing Online/Studio Portrait Party June 16. They'll be up for a sweet short week.

We're also still taking applications for folks who want to host a party at their house (though the waitlist is started)--or in our studio. Fill the day with just your friends and family, and when you're not in having your photographs made, you can be chatting and visiting with all your loved ones. Better still, you can earn valuable print credits! Hosts earn 15% in prints for parties in their own homes, and 10% in prints for parties held in the studio!
