Art with Attitude
Welcome back to our little corner of the world! It's February already! Cabin fever is running rampant with the promise of spring still around the corner and out of sight. We have been working on several things here at the studio. Feel free to take a gander at our new Sports Portraits page, featuring various action images of the many sports that we cover locally. Part of a new personal project that I am working on is a different kind of sport portrait. The goal of the project is to photograph the athlete deliberately with awareness, not an action grab. These images will have an almost three dimesional effect when completed. As I said this is a personal project and its in the infancy stage, but hopefully I will be able to put together a full portfolio someday soon. In the meanwhile, here is the first of hopefully many, my husband, Mr. Tennis.
Any athletes interested in modeling for this type of portrait can contact me at 217-239-1658.
FYI we put several images of the games/matches/meets that we attend on our facebook page. These images and others from the event are also available as 4x6 prints and 18x24 posters. The posters are particuliarly awesome, and a fantastic way to remember a senior season. Call for more information and to schedule a viewing session!
Since I don't have an abundance of photos this week, I thought I would blog briefly on two services that I have recently discovered and thought could be of use to you.
The first is the fact that Staples, the office supply store, recycles computers, printers, and moniters and injet cartidges. There could be a fee associated, but if you are like me, its worth it to have it out of my house!
The second is the monthly dinner menus with recipes and shopping lists both online or in the Real Simple magazine. I prefer online so I can print off only the recipes that appeal to me. It is sssoooo nice to have an answer in advance to the perpetual question....What's for dinner? Even better is the month of menus that are 400 calories or less!!!
Mom and Me portraits
Mark your calendars, its coming fast....April 9-11. Reserve your spot today!
That's it for this week. Enjoy the Superbowl and stay warm!
Until next time- take care
