Coming up for a quick breath of air!  I always know that this time of year is going to be crazy, but it still shocks me every year!

Amongst the craziness, I have been having a lot of fun with my camera!  Here a quick peek on what’s been going on around here:

At the end of October, we had 2 days of holiday mini sessions at the Boojum Tree in Phoenix!  It was so cool getting to see some families that I have photographed many times in the past and also getting to meet a bunch of amazing new families.  Thanks to everyone who made the minis (all 15 of them) a fantastic time this year!

And a peek of the belly, baby, and family sessions that will be coming soon!

Ok, back to work!  Hope everyone is having a fantastic week and looking forward to an official day of Thankfulness next week!  I am hoping to get a Q&A post up soon… thanks for all your emails!

Joyfully, Erin

Holidays are right around the corner!!  Can you believe it!?!  I love the months we are approaching because of the smells, sounds, decorations, gatherings of family and friends, and of course, the beautiful weather all of us desert dwellers have been waiting for!

The original day for holiday mini sessions filled up within a day, so I decided to open up a second day.  The news for the mini sessions went out first to my newsletter subscribers, so if you would also like to be the first to know what’s going on around here, please take a minute and subscribe!  Up at the top of my blog, you will see “Newsletter” up in the menu tabs.  Just fill out the form and you will receive the newsletter that I will be sending out from time to time.

So here’s the details for the remaining holiday mini sessions that are available:

WHEN:  Sunday, October 25th, 2009

WHERE:  Boojum Tree in Phoenix, AZ

Please see the rest of the information below.  Images on the promo below are from Todd and Kara’s wedding, though hopefully they will give you a good idea of what the beautiful grounds of the Boojum Tree look like!

Sessions are in the afternoon.  I have 4 remaining session spots available which will be filled on a first come, first serve basis.  Please send me an email to let me know if you are interested to erin(at)emlifephoto(dot)com.  Full payment is due upon scheduling.

The goal of the mini session is to get a great family photo and some individual photos of your little ones.  Time for the session and the amount of images you are presented with are limited, so please make sure that a mini session will fit your expectations!

I do not have any regular session availability left for 2009, but am scheduling sessions for 2010 now.  Please let me know if you are interested in a 2010 session and I will email you more information!

Thank you so much to each of you who have trusted me to capture your lives this year!  I really feel like I get to photograph such amazing, beautiful families… it’s such an honor and I am looking forward to the new year!

Joyfully, Erin

… to my new blog home

I am so excited to be able to post images so big!!  I decided to try and be a computer geek and install this on my own… I think I jumped up and did a little happy dance when I actually did it correctly!  For some people, something like this is cake, but was quite the challenge for my artsy brain!  Thanks to the good folks at Tofurious for the sweet template and wonderful installation tutorials.  I am still customizing and will continue to update the menu links.  I am hoping to soon have a place for you to register for my newsletter… this is something that I have been wanting to do for a long time to update you on upcoming promotions and new goodies!  If you are registered to receive my newsletter, you will be the first to know about these things  Here’s a little preview of a post that will be coming soon!  I am so excited to be partnering with the talented Julie of Juju’s Tutu’s and one of the adorable boutiques of Historical Glendale, Miracle Haven.  More on them both soon and the recent children’s photography from our collaborations!  Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!
