Welcome to my Blog

Now that you're here ... I hope you'll stay for a bit ... and keep coming back for more.
My slice of photographic life, lived in moments of time, shared with clients, photographers, designers, entrepreneurs, family & friends.

You might be interested in the photographs I create or the work I publish. You might be interested in life at extremes when it's 30 below zero outside with only 4 hours of daylight or when there is sun almost 24 hours a day. Or you might be interested in family & motherhood. Or maybe you're most interested in finding out how I see your world. That moment when the shutter clicks & life develops before our eyes.

I hope you feel inspired to pursue your dreams, your own piece of calm & happiness. I hope you hear that little voice inside you that wants to savor these moments forever. I hope you feel compelled enough to leave a note, a comment {some blog love} on the topic at hand. And I hope you feel that tiny bit of hope that says we're all in this together.
Living, dreaming, being.

Casting Call: Newborns {CLOSED}

November 30, 2008 | Casting Call

From time to time, a creative idea is sparked and gets the juices flowing. It’s the same whether you are a writer, a teacher, a dancer or a snow machine enthusiast. You get an idea that you just HAVE to try out. My line of work is the same way! And just like that, a casting call is born to help me find the models I need to help me carry out a special project.

Here is what I am looking for:

  • Who: Mamas who are due in the new year … edd 5+ weeks from now. You can be due in January-April. Babies born anytime in the next few months are welcome.
  • What: A newborn casting call – a chance for me to shoot & work through some creative ideas that are up in my head, while expanding my portfolio with the little ones. A chance for you to ‘test the waters’ if you are wondering about my work & having a session with MachC Photography.
  • When & Where: a mutually agreed upon home location when you & the baby get home from the hospital. Baby will need to be between 4 and 10 days old at the time of the shoot.

I don’t know how many newborns I may need at this point, but it will be a small, limited number, so it’s important to touch base with me ASAP via e-mail: info@machcphotography{dot}com or the CONTACT FORM above {via the “Info” tab} to discuss further and get you on the books. And if you are reading this and know of someone who is pregnant, feel free to pass my info/blog along to them as well.

The session can take place in Fairbanks & surrounding areas (Ester, FWW, NP, Eielson).

So, besides the chance to the test the waters, what do you get? A FREE newborn session ($125), an online gallery available to you & your family for additional viewing, and an 8×12 print of your choice. Additional prints & gifts are available for purchase.

I love working with newborns & their families and cannot wait to start this personal project in the new year.

Stay tuned for some more goodies just around the corner (am I allowed to hint at a giveaway? hmmm… I think I just did… whooops :D heehee). Happy Holidays everyone!

  • Janine Guidera (25 comments.): Hmmm....what ARE you up to Miss C? The mind boggles. No doubt something fantastically creative and fun. Looking forward to seeing the results of whatever it is! -30 degrees????? OMG. I seriously seriously cannot imagine anything under 12 degrees. (yep, that's plus not minus 12 lol).

  • Where does the time go?! : the blog with moxie | Fairbanks Alaska’s Custom Photographer: [...] The Casting Call is just about set. I may have room for one more… *maybe* … depends on when your little one is due, so if you are interested, drop me a line ASAP to see if I can squeeze you in. Thank you to everyone who has contacted me! I am so excited to work with each of you! [...] (12.10.2008 01:56am)
