We are Switching to FaceBook

You might have noticed we haven’t posted a whole lot on the blog recently.  To be honest, we have been very swamped with wedding season coming to an end and all the seniors and babies we been photographing each week has really been adding to the work load.  We even hired part time help to allow us to catch up.  So, to simplify things and keep you updated we are going to start putting all posts on our Facebook Page.  Make sure you add Giraffe Photography to your friends list and become a Fan of our page!

Baby Giraffe Turns 2

The say two is the hardest age to photograph, but I beg to differ.  The key to success is just letting a child be him/herself.  Let them roam and play, explore and just be a kid.  The result will be much better portraits along with a happier kid.  Along with that, don’t forget to give your child a nap before the session.

Fun With The Barsness Family

Meet Jeff & Val.  They have been bringing their baby here since she was a wee 3 months old.  So when she finally turned one, they knew they should get some family portraits taken.  Life goes by so fast, we have to pause and find a way to remember the past.

Keeping It Real..

Just the other day, I had a client ask me ”why their photo wasn’t on the blog?”  So you might be wondering why some photo shoots are highlighted and others aren’t.  The truth is, we just don’t have time to put every photo shoot we do on the blog.  So, when I do a posting, I usually just copy and paste a few random photos from my computer desktop.  When it comes to weddings, we try to post all of those, as it is easier to keep up with weddings.  Right now we are in the process of getting some of our studio tasks simplified to get more posts put up and faster!   Thanks for all your support as we continue to grow our business!

Family Fun at Giraffe

Meet the Meyer’s family.  After seeing their friends photos take at Giraffe, they knew where they wanted to go.  They wanted something different, capturing their candid side, our specialty.
