I will be on vacation starting tomorrow, Friday July 11 - Friday July 18. During that time I will have no access to the studio phone and limited access to my e-mail. Best way to reach me will be by e-mail and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks!

Happy 4th of July!!!!

I hope you all enjoy the holiday weekend. Eat some good food and enjoy your family and friends.

I will be out of the office today and tomorrow (July 4th & 5th) and will be back in on Sunday for a few portrait sessions. Also, I will be out of the office from Friday, July 11 - Friday, July 18. I am going to be a guest at one of best friends Ruthie’s wedding. (I love being a wedding guest, lol). Then I am off for some R&R with the hubby (and hopefully a bit of sun, ocean water, and a bunch of Maryland Blue crabs!).

Enjoy!

So it appears that I have been having e-mail problems. So, if you have e-mailed me in the past week or so and have not heard back from me, please e-mail me again. We should be all fixed at this point. Thanks!

Oh yeah … and I’ll be sure to post some new pics soon ……………………..

I am working on a new advertising campaign for my Bellies to Babies collection and I need some MODELS!!! I looking for some mommies to be who will be willing to model their gorgeous body for some maternity pictures. Then I need some beautiful new babies, age 0-3 weeks to model for me as well. Of course you can model for both as well. For the maternity pictures I am looking for the partner to participate as well. For the babies, I will need mom and dad to participate as well. Models will receive a complementary photo session and 8×10. So if you fit the categories and would like to model, please send me an e-mail: kim@kimberlynoelphotography.com. Don’t fit the category yourself but know someone who does … please pass along the info. Just for the referral you’ll receive a complementary 8×10 to be used during a future portrait session.

Thanks and I look forward to all the great models!!!

Wow … it’s been three days since I blogged.  I’m so bad!!  I’m not doing well on my blogging every day in May idea (is May over yet?????)  Shesh, I need to get back on track this week.  Hold tight for a few minutes and I’ll have some great pictures from Brad and Leslie’s wedding.

Here it is … my new wedding album sample.  I love it!

Nice thick pages …

It opens completely flat with hardly any gutter …

Gutter close up ….

It has a nice sturdy spine ….

These are just quick snap shots … it looks so much better in person.  I am exciting to begin offering this album to my wonderful clients.  I would love to hear your comments about the album.  Have a great night all!

You all got me.  I did not blog yesterday.  Good job to all those who realized it.  Glad to see you are reading.  Congrats to Amanda who was the first to e-mail me after realizing I did not blog yesterday.  She will receive a $50 print credit toward a future portrait session.  Remember, I am aiming to blog every day during the month of May.  If I miss a day and you are the first to e-mail me calling me out, you will also receive the print credit.  I’m sure I’ll purposely not blog at least one more time this month so someone else has a change to win. 

 Until tomorrow ……

First off Happy Cinco de Mayo.

So for today’s post I thought I would do something a bit different and I need your help for it.  I am working on a list of tips for brides/grooms to be and I thought what better way to come up with tips then to ask those who have already been through the planning process and the wedding.  So here’s the deal, I want to know what one thing you would change about your wedding and/or the planning leading up to it, that would have made things go a bit better for you.  And you can’t say you’d change your photographer, unless of course you did not have me photography your wedding, then it’s fair game.  Leave your tips below in the comments section.

To make the pot a bit sweeter, I will randomly pick a commenter and they will win a $20 gas card (that should get you what, like 4 gallons of gas, lol). 

And just so that everyone can participate, not just us married folk, anyone can leave a tip that they think would be helpful for future brides and grooms.

Thanks and I look forward to all the great tips!

Okay, to celebrate my new blog I am vowing to post every day during the month of May.  Yes, that’s right, I will try and write a blog post every day for the next 31 days.  Here’s the thing, if I miss a day, you just might benefit.  The first person to e-mail me (kim@kimberlynoelphotography.com) and point out that I did not blog, will get a $50 print credit for a future portrait session.  Here’s a couple rules:

1.) You must notify me within one day that I did not post.  Meaning if I forget to post on Tuesday, by the end of the day Wednesday you must notify me.  Thursday will be to late.

2.) Your print credit will be good for one year from the date of issue.

The best way to keep informed of what is going on with my blog is to subscribe to the blog.  That way, daily updates will be e-mail to you. 

So the challenge begins, let’s see if I can keep up!

Whoohoo …. my new blog is finally done!  I’m so excited.  This is sure to get me blogging more.  I have a bunch of pictures I have to show you.  Wedding season is well on it’s way which is so exciting.  And of course, now is the perfect time to start scheduling your spring portraits.

Please feel free to check out my new blog.  There is an about page.  You can see the wedding FAQ questions.  There is a contact page.  The best part about this new blog is bigger pictures.  So fun.  Anyway, until next time, enjoy!

P.S - Be sure to leave comments as I post new things …. I love hearing feedback from everyone!
