Fresh Five on Friday | Fairbanks AK Photographer

January 29th, 2010

Can you believe it’s the LAST FRIDAY in January?!? Wild huh. No idea how that really happened … even more of an excuse for Five on Friday! Can’t say exactly why I threw “fresh” in there this time … but it just may stick. I’ve seen a “Fresh Friday” or two around and thought, yeah, [...]

 

Can you believe it’s the LAST FRIDAY in January?!? Wild huh. No idea how that really happened … even more of an excuse for Five on Friday! Can’t say exactly why I threw “fresh” in there this time … but it just may stick. I’ve seen a “Fresh Friday” or two around and thought, yeah, Five on Friday is pretty fresh. Probably need to add that.

1. Well now that I think about it, I guess fresh really does apply. I was trying to keep the blog updated on the back-end this week (probably lingo that only bloggers know, loathe & understand) and *POOF* my blog disappeared. Yes, for a whole … who knows how long! … on Thursday. Just gone-zo for part of the afternoon. I became a one-(wo)man tech show and fixed it … but not without some major grumpies toward the computer. But don’t judge me for that. :D

2. Apple: iPad … really, Apple? iPad? Really? No, no the design is fine. The idea, sure … seriously, you bought the rights to iPad – nothing else seemed … better???

3. And on that note … let’s talk about something else! haha :) How about a giveaway?! I stumbled across a tweeter recently that I wanted to know more about, so we’ve been following each other. She just tweeted a giveaway they are having on her blog makeitworkmom.com so I thought what better way to kick off Friday than to share that with you all! Memories are so important, no matter the form they take.

4. Thank you SO MUCH for all of the wonderful comments & e-mails & messages and, and, and! telling me how much you all love the new logo & blog redesign! I love hearing from each of you. It really just made my day to share this with you! Still tweaking a few things behind the scenes, but I seriously cannot wait to share even more & have a little launch party!

5. Clients … you should have an e-mail with spring dates from me today! Let me know what date works for you & we’ll get you set. For everyone else, I’m just about full for the spring, so if you are looking for a spring session (March-May), please hit that contact button & drop me a line so we can get you squared away! Expecting mamas too!

Hard to believe we’re starting the last week in January, isn’t it. In some ways I feel like January just started & in others, I cannot wait for it to end. I’ve been so sick (hence the short blog break), it’s been insane. And now I’m on quite the list of meds to try & [...]

 

Hard to believe we’re starting the last week in January, isn’t it. In some ways I feel like January just started & in others, I cannot wait for it to end. I’ve been so sick (hence the short blog break), it’s been insane. And now I’m on quite the list of meds to try & get a ride on the health train for a bit. As the doctor so kindly said, well we can’t have you walking around this sick so we need to take some aggressive action to get you well again. Yeah, you think? I can’t be walking around this sick either! I got stuff to do buddy.

All this & a blog launch too! :D Have a ton of things I want to share … so I think I’m going to take time to ‘show you around’ later this week. Give you a quick tour of the place. There are so many new features & nooks n’ crannies – should be fun!

I already made a note on Facebook, trying to get quite a few things squared away so we can get schedules & dates set. As always, those who have sessions booked & are just waiting on dates, get first dibs. So if you for sure want a spring or early summer session, now’s the time!

Behind the scenes I’m also working on some samples & new products that I just know you guys are going to love. I can’t wait to share those as they become available. I love finding great things that showcase your babies & families and this year’s products are no exception.

On top of all this, I am slowly but surely compiling a Frequently Asked Questions page … feel free to send questions by leaving a comment or sending an e-mail, that would work too. I welcome anything on photography, family, mentoring, coaching, living in Alaska :) you name it. I don’t always have time to answer every e-mail individually, so I’d like to have a resource that might answer some of the more common questions you guys have.

One from last year … just to prove we can have fun in the snow too ;)

These two were like two peas in a pod. I remember laughing so hard when I realized they were standing the exact same way – and they didn’t even realize it! You have to have a pretty strong bond with your Nana to have mind powers like that!
