Your Life. Captured.: March 2007

Color!

For the past few weeks I've been working with a brilliant designer to come up with a new logo and branding scheme for KarenLeslie Photography. Yesterday I approved the final version. I love it! :) I'll be unveiling it next week, so be sure to check back.

I have a set of Pantone color swatches and chips from my marketing days and I put them to good use when I was finalizing my new colors. What you see in this picture are the color rejects. I thought the pile of color was just so wonderful, even though none of them made the final cut. :)

...And Baby Makes Four

In just a little while, this family of three will become a family of four. :) We had fun capturing this special moment.

I can already tell he's going to be a great big brother!

And this next photo is why I love shooting digitally. I tried a slightly different processing technique and got this -- I think it has an old film look. :)

To have and to hold

Earlier today I had the pleasure of photographing a beautiful wedding. It was truly picture perfect. :) After I downloaded all the images (5 memory card's worth!) I took a quick peek and these are the few that caught my eye immediately. :)

These two really have the best relationship. They were both a joy to work with.

The beautiful couple. :)

And, this photograph I LOVE. Isn't it fantastic??

Taming of the Shrew: Bishop Moore Drama Department

The students at Bishop Moore High School are putting on a performance of Taming of the Shrew, with a 50s twist. I had the pleasure of photographing their dress rehearsal tonight. What a treat that was! I can highly recommend this performance, which opens Thursday night.

You can purchase tickets here for the Thursday night, Friday night or Saturday night performance. It's only $5 or $7 and its definitely worth it!

Here's a taste of what you can expect from this really awesome group of performers!

There's a new personal trainer in town

....and his name is Steve Griggs.

Ok, so he's not really new, but he's about to launch a new website and he hired me to take some photos for that website. He works out of Pump & Run in Winter Park (corner of Park Avenue and 17-92 near the Enzian Theater). He's a really great guy and you should call him to book a session with him!

Thanks to Terri, our model for the session, who was trying to convince Steve that our photo session could take the place of her workout for the day. He wasn't convinced! ;)

Here's how to get in touch with Steve:

A Princess Turns One

Yesterday I had a really fun session a sweet little princess and her two fantastic cousins. :) Good luck was on our side because it stopped raining about 10 minutes before our session was scheduled to begin. After that, the rain stopped and the sun came out and we had a fantastic day.

Happy First Birthday to the sweet princess!

Look at this cutie!

And, yesterday was all about sticks to one almost-two-year old. :)

Thanks for a fun afternoon! :)

Fun at the Beach

What better way to celebrate the time change and a fantastic weather day than a photo session at the beach? I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing this beautiful family on Sunday. I wanted to get a few previews posted for mom and dad to whet their appetite for the full set of proofs. :)

Can you see what fun we had?

Stop by and say hi at the Tuscawilla Farmer's Market

If you are on the East side of town, did you know that there's a new Farmer's Market every Saturday morning in the Tuscawilla subdivision? It's located off of Winter Springs Blvd. near the 7-11 from 8am - 12noon every Saturday.

This Saturday, I will have a booth at the Farmer's Market. I'll be displaying photos from recent sessions and will be offering a special promotion to anyone who stops by to say hi.

Get your fruits, vegetables, plants and sign up for a photo session from KarenLeslie Photography this Saturday. See you there!

Mini Sessions at Leu Gardens

We had a great day of mini session at Leu Gardens. I'm still in the middle of editing, but wanted to give the moms a preview. Look at these cuties I got to play with! :)
