One of my favorite things….the light from a simple, ordinary window. North, south, east or west, doesnt’ really matter to me. It’s a great formula: Simple composition and beautiful, soft light. Doesn’t get much better than that!
And my favorites from the 5 minutes each that they allowed me…
No doubt about it! I am quickly running out of available dates for fall sessions at Michelle Walker Photography, so get your date reserved as soon as possible for fall family portraits and holiday cards. Email Michelle for more information about availability. Most are late October and Early November at this point.
Some shots I took this morning of the “hairy beans” as my daughter likes to call them.
These flowers just make me smile. They wrap around the soybeans or corn stalks, and then have these pretty blue blooms. It creates quite a contrast against the rich fall colors. One last little breath of spring, I guess.
Did you know that we offer a Bridal Registry for gift-giving to our wedding couples? Your guests can now give the gift of portrait memories, and you get to choose exactly what you want!
A Bridal Registry is set up for each couple who books a wedding with Michelle Walker Photography. Your guests can then make a purchase in any denomination for use toward your choice of prints, enlargements, cards and traditional or coffee-table albums. I send a custom gift certificate (complete with personal message) to your guest so that they can present the gift to you at the appropriate occasion. The couple’s account is credited with this amount, and can be used toward the purchase of any images you wish…just like a gift card!
These are perfect for bridal showers or wedding gifts, and it’s a gift that will treasured forever. For more information about our wedding availability and options, visit our website at http://www.michellewalkerphotography.com or contact Michelle for more information.
Don’t forget about referral print credits! You get a $20 print credit for each person that you refer for a session. Just have them mention your name when they book their session, and once I have completed their session I add a $20 credit to your account. Take advantage of the referral credit as often as you wish! You can combine multiple print credits in one order, AND if you refer 4 people, you get a $100 print credit! Thank you for spreading the word!
This pair is soooo much fun! We did part of the session at Oak Run’s Windemere Park on the beach. But most of my favorites were taken “down on the farm”.
Here’s Mr. H (and TJ the steer)
A few flowers in the boot to save for Mommy
And here is Mr. E
And sometimes being the little brother feels pretty good.
I have had so many requests for more flexible collections, so starting October 1, 2007 I will be implementing new collection pricing so that you can choose the print sizes that YOU want. New and returning clients can request the new collection information by sending me an email or using the contact form.
I love the idea of these…you can choose the perfect combination of prints for you and not be locked into the specific sizes that were in my previous packages.
And here are a few photos from our house this week. My youngest started preschool this week (how did that happen?). Here she is one her first day of school…
She didn’t want to face me, because showing off the brand spankin’ new backpack was far more important to her than smiling for the camera…..
And onto the bus they go. She was so glad that she could ride with Danielle in the morning…
Congratulations to Amy and Brian on their engagement! We had a gorgeous day for portraits, and spent some time at St. Mary’s Chapel in Knoxville before heading out to the barns for some more casual shots. They were good sports for the farm images, where the bugs were really starting to get annoying.
I LOOOOOVE a little sunflare in the evening…
Our corn is pretty ugly for photographs…, but the soybeans were still nice and green.
Thanks, guys! I hope the mosquitos didn’t get you too bad!
I look forward to seeing you again in the Quad Cities in October for your wedding day!
