snapshot



Hard to believe it's time to get my 2nd quarter newsletter, aptly named "snapshot," out to my clients. Where did the first 3 months go? If you're not on this very exclusive list of recipients and would like to be in the know with all things photographic (and then some), please email your name and I'll get my little rag out to you ASAP. There are some fun photography specials you simply can't miss and I'm even giving away a complimentary creative session...but there's a catch!

And, being the generous business person that I am, I've reduced my print prices on my Point & Shoot collection (like Catnap and Botanical you see above) that are perfect for all gift-givers. You can order one print or the entire collection on my proofing website: www.beckyjphotography.photoreflect.com

I probably should start working on 3rd quarter while I'm at it.

It's Show Time!

Oh boy, more fun with my Mac (plus iPhoto and Quicktime)...grab a tub of buttered popcorn, a bag of M&M's and a cold one...it's show time! Just click on the > below:




By the way, you can order a slide show just like this one (only better) on DVD of your own creative session images, set to music. Call me - we'll talk.

In the photo booth

I love my new Mac. My old G5 died last year just three weeks after the warranty expired (insert swear words here). I was extremely ticked off when it happened - it was smack dab in the middle of my holiday rush when I live and breath processing digital photo files. Well, I swallowed my pride and used Mike's PC to get me through the crisis, then bought myself an early Christmas present.

Anyway, I love my new Mac. I've used some recent downtime to play with a few of the cool gadgets that are loaded on this thing and one of my favorite new toys is Photo Booth. You open that baby up and you can't stop taking goofy pictures of yourself (there's a little camera built into the top of the monitor). I know, I have way too much free time on my hands. First the M&M character, now this.

I love my new Mac.

If I could be an M&M

If I could be an M&M, what would I look like? Well, here ya' go...I came across this website where you can capture your own personality or create an alter-ego in candy. For those who know me, this pretty much says it all, right down to the skinny legs and the tiara (the Society will know what I'm talkin' about).

Crazy as it sounds, you can also buy stuff for your M&M character like tattoos and other accessories, or make a movie starring "yourself."

Check out Planet M's site and have a little decadent fun of your own:

In memory of Kenya


I just learned that this beautiful dog named Kenya that I had the privilege of photographing last year was put to rest by her long-time companion, and I wanted to share her regal, 16 year-old face with whoever happens upon this.

I am so glad I got to meet her.
