October's Newsletter

Lisa’s Photography Newsletter No. 2 (Oct 08)

Firstly, thank you for your wonderful emails and phone calls about my photography launch. The response was overwhelming and I really appreciate your kind words and support!!

Ok, so what’s news?

Many have asked about the brag books / coffee table books - what they look like, and how much they cost...so to give you an example, please see below.

The cost - a 20 side 5x5 book bound soft cover book is $95, that’s a saving of $55!

When should I use a photographer??

There’s an endless list of reasons for when you could use a photographer – here’s a basic list to get your creative juices going ........

Christmas / Christmas Functions

Milestones – pregnancy, births, first steps (first anything), Christening, first birthday

Valentine’s Day / Engagements / Weddings

Mother’s Day / Father’s Day

Birthdays /Anniversaries

Special Events – even your Pets!

I’m also keen to try out some Commercial photography, especially Real Estate, I love taking photos of people’s houses.

When’s the best time for our photo shoot?

I like to meet my clients around 4pm at this time of year – if you have a look outside, you’ll see that the sunlight is getting softer with a gorgeous glow – all the better to shoot with!

What should I wear to my photo shoot?

Believe it or not, long sleeved black/dark shirts look best, especially if you would like black and white photos.

But wear what you feel comfortable in. Some of my suggestions are -

• Solid, bright coloured clothing;
• Denim jeans and white shirts;
• If your kids love dress ups, then bring those clothes along and let them have some fun;
• If you or your child has a hobby or interest (eg violin, guitar, books) that shows your/their personality, please feel free to bring along as well!

If you’re still not sure, bring a couple of sets of clothes to the shoot.

Yummy Mummies

I’m looking for some pregnant tummies to photograph as well, if you’re interested just let me know and I’ll do your session for free.

If you’d like to be taken off the mailing list, just let me know (I won’t be offended).

My website page is on its way – keep an eye out for it.

Thanks again
