New Product! Custom Proof Boxes!

I have loved these boxes since the first time I laid eyes on them! As I have said before, everything I do and offer in business is something that, as a customer, I would want myself. And this is definitely it!! With digital photography being as prolific as it is, fewer and fewer photos are actually being printed out. I think its fantastic to share images on Facebook, and view all the proofs in an online gallery, but there is no replacement for the printed image.

With this, you not only get this cool custom designed keepsake box, but inside are up to 100 proofs from your portrait session.

 

So, not only do you not have to agonizingly choose over all of your favorite images, but since they are proofs, the file names are printed on the back of each image, so you have a reference to each image when you are deciding what to have blown up into larger prints or canvases.

 

 

Love. A great addition to any portrait session!

{Alice} Newborn Photography - Portland, Oregon

I was able to meet this little beauty on her three week birthday :) I joined Alice and her mom Illana for a quiet, mellow Sunday morning at their home in Portland. Alice was a perfect snuggly little girl.

 

 

 

Such a proud mama :) I love being asked to join parents during this special time. Its still that time when they are adjusting to wacky sleep schedules that feel like they change daily, feeling like nothing around the house is getting done, and regular life getting back on track. If you are thinking about having newborn pics of your new arrival taken, don't worry about all of the that - this is such a fleeting time, the dishes in the sink don't bother me a bit! lol It's just an hour or two, to capture your newborn as he or she is at that moment, and never will again.

And if you are thinking about scheduling a session for your little one, please give me a call - even if you only have a due date at this point! 541-936-2755 - or email angela @ cardasphotography.com

{Headshots} Julie Miller - Executive Director: Bandon Chamber of Commerce

Next up on the Bandon Business Spotlight blog is Julie Miller.  Julie is not only the Executive Director of the Bandon Chamber of Commerce, she is also the President of the Oregon State Chamber of Commerce. It was a pleasure to update this busy woman's professional headshot.

 

 

As you can see - I don't shoot the traditional (stuffy) lights and backdrop sort of headshots. I prefer natural light, relaxed environment, plenty of outfits and big real smile headshots. Julie worked her signature scarves and bright red jacket perfectly and I hope these shots show her happy and outgoing personality.

{Sarweshni and Jack} Engagement Session - Portland Oregon

When I saw Sarweshni and Jack walking towards me at the Crystal Springs Rhododendron Gardens I knew we were going to have a great time!  With both of them decked out from head to toe in traditional Indian attire, it looked like I was photographing movie stars on location.  They certainly turned a lot of heads at the gardens that afternoon.

 

 

 

 

Even though the gardens were packed on this beautiful Spring day, these two only had eyes for each other. I can't wait for their wedding in Portland August - its going to be seriously beautiful I'm sure!
