FALL in love!

Something about this time of year is so magical for me. The harvest season! Earlier orange sunsets, halloween, the moon! I feel the fall buzz all around me every year, and I love everything about it! Here are some shots of tonights sunset that I had to share :o) Don't forget, that even if you are a hermit, ALWAYS take time to at least peek out the window at the sunset, it's an ever-changing beauty!

Wedding news and updates!

SO I have now finished editing 66 of the wedding pictures! Whew! Still have a few from the ceremony and the reception, and then they will be ALL done! Please refer to the price list and send me an email if you are interested in buying any! PLEASE don't forget, that if a package is ordered, you can get 1 4x6 of EVERY picture from this wedding for an additional $40! This would be a great way to put togethor an album or scrapbook to remember this beautiful wedding, or to give as a gift! Also, please look in the notes section of my FaceBook page for more ideas! These include matboard prints/canvas prints/calendars etc. If you are interested in any of those, please let me know! OH and since this is my first wedding, and I had no plans of doing weddings when I created my price list, let me know if none of the packages fit what you are interested in, I can create a custom package for you, see price list for details on that! Please help me continue to spread the word about me! I am at a total of 107 fans (people who "like" my facebook page), and when I get to 130, I am going to run a special promotion, so keep talkin about me, and passing my name around! :o) Please see the portrait page on this website for the wedding pictures!

Promotion news AND PRICE LIST UPDATE

Hello Hello! I have been SUPER busy editing the almost 1000 pics I took at last weekends wedding, and I have hardly even touched them. . LOL :o) I have some news though, there is now only ONE spot left for the latest promotion! SO, the NEXT person that books and appointment with me for a shoot gets half off of my sitting fee! That brings it down to $25.00! What an amazing deal for a fun day outside capturing beautiful pictures of yourself and your family that you can cherish forever! :o) ALSO, as of right now, half of the sitting fee is due at the time that you make an appointment with me. This is to hold your spot, and is non-refundable. If your name is currently written in my appointment book, this doesn't apply to you obviously, but if you are planning or wanting to schedule an appointment with me, be ready to pay $25.00 at that time. Right now I accept cash and personal checks. Please write checks to Jennifer Hines. The rest of the sitting fee ($25.00) will be due on the day of your shoot. I can't wait to head into fall and get some wonderful pictures of your families with the colors, smells, and temps of this amazing season! :o)

Wedding shoot

As alot of you probably know, yesterday was my first wedding or event shoot ever! It was a wedding that was supposed to be very laid back and country. . AND outside, which is where I know how to shoot. However, last minute it got moved inside, so I was a nervous freakin' wreck about it. I was shaking so bad when I got there that I was having a hard time avoiding camera shake LOL However, this family was so fun, laid back and hilarious that I eased right on in. Once I got started, and started taking charge of the situations I L-O-V-E-D it! I NEVER thought I would love shooting a wedding this much . . it was right up my alley! Sparkles, glitter, dirty boots and SOO many opportunities for amazing candid shots! It helped alot that this couple, as well as their entire family, were beautiful and extremely photogenic! :o) I went with all intentions of leaving shortly after the reception started, but I pretty much had to be dragged out by my husband lol. I took over 800 pictures, and I am SO excited to get to editing! I'm pretty sure I was glowing just as much as the bride by the end of it! Thank you so much Katelyn and Nick Nance, and the whole family for letting me be a part of your amazing evening! I appreciate your patience, and you allowing me to use your special day for some amazing practice! It was a beautiful night and I had a blast stalking you! :o)

Here is just a teeny weeny sneak peek of the wedding, LOTS MORE to come!

Peek-a-Boo!

Only two spots left!

Spot numero uno has been filled for my special offer! There are only two spots left, and just to make it more interesting, I'm putting an expiration date on it! Mwaha. . Make your appointment by September 17th to get 50% off of my sitting fee, or miss out on this special opportunity! Don't forget that this appointment can be for anytime, next year if you want! Also, please remember that this offer is for adults and senior students only, but keep your eyes peeled for upcoming specials! Also, I think it would be extremely fun to some day do an after the wedding "trash the dress" type of shoot, let me know if thats something you may be interested in! It can be a little dirty with some grass, or hay, or just a dirty place to sit, or we can make it filthy! :o) Also, it doesn't necessarily have to be a wedding dress, any dress would be fun! Hope you all had a great long weekend, shoot me an email, get yourself a google account for free and follow me, or send me some comments on facebook!

Special Promotion & Great opportunity!

So, I am looking for someone to do a shoot with to give me more adult pictures to use as advertisement! Also, I know that there are some people out there that have always wanted to have some pictures done of themselves, but always find other things to do with their money. Everyone deserves to have some photos done of themselves that they can be proud of and display, and hold onto forever! Photos like these are ones that you will want to show your children and your grandchildren! So, whether your a single or busy mom on a tight schedule and budget, or a senior who is struggling in this economy to come up with money for senior pictures, I am offering a chance to have a fun photo shoot that captures your personality, that you can have forever! Simply send me an email telling me your story. Please make sure to include your situation, or reasoning for taking advantage of this deal! I'd love to get to know you as much as possible before the shoot, so please be as lengthy with this story as you'd like! The first THREE people to not only send me an email but to actually schedule a shoot with me will get 50% off of my already low sitting fee!( in other words, the first three to schedule an appointment) This would make the sitting fee for your shoot only $25.00! Unlike most photographers, there is no time limit or picture limit. I will spend as much time as it takes at the location with you, or in meetings with you before the shoot to get every shot we can get! As a child, I never had many professional pictures taken and that includes senior pictures. It is one of my goals as a photographer to make sure that EVERYONE has the opportunity to have quality, fun pictures done of their children and of themselves to have and cherish forever. This is just the first of many promotional and helpful deals that I plan to offer, so please don't be discouraged when I say that I am asking for seniors (students) and adults only this time. Don't worry. . I am still taking appointments for children and families, and there will be deals for them too very soon! :o) Also, please don't feel like since I am only asking for 3 at this time, that you will never make it in time. Ask around, take your time, or simply write me an email yourself about someone you know that you would love to see have this done for him or herself. Don't forget to let me know who told you about me. . there is a special treat for that person as well! Let's work together and offer a great opportunity to some deserving people! :o)


Also, if you are a part of a church or organization, or just know of a good place for flyers, please let me know as I'd love to have them everywhere! And don't forget to mention to people that they can find me on facebook and "like" my page so that they can hear about upcoming deals. Also if you create a google email account, which is free, you can become a follower of this site and comment on any or all of my posts! Thanks for your love and support!
