Christmas Gift Ideas: Cards and Fine Art Prints + discounts on photography sessions!

November 19th, 2009

I'm excited to tell you guys about an arts & crafts sale coming up soon where I'll be selling some of my new greeting cards, framed artwork as well as gift certificates for photography sessions (discounts off my regular prices!). First off, my greeting cards feature artwork printed on cardstock for a great alternative to the drug store-bought card - no cheesy hallmark write ups in these ones! Blank on the inside, with your choice of a variety of fine art photography on the front. Including envelopes, they'll be selling for $3.00/card or $14.00 for half a dozen. I'll also have framed artwork for sale, as well as an opportunity for you to choose and order prints. I'll have contact sheets and print portfolios handy for you to look through my latest photos. Stop by, say hi and check out the other local artists and artisans that will also be there. Skip the mall! Support local Winnipeg artists and discover some unique gift ideas! Proceeds from the tables will be going to a Women's co-op in Nepal. Here's the info on where it's all happening:

Portrait Photography - Black and White Film

November 5th, 2009

I came across these photos today, which were taken on film (probably HP5 black and white film) about 2 years ago. I remember developing them in the dark room and absolutely loving every minute of it. I remember the contact sheet was full of goodies - tons of great lighting, amazing tones and of course a beautiful model! This is actually my friend Jane who was kind enough to pose for me for a portrait shoot for one of my analog techniques assignments when I was in school. This just makes me itchin' to get back into the dark room. I see many dark room nights in my near future, once winter comes! (what better way to spend a cold, dark winter evening than in the dark room!)
