Happy Wedding Day to Keri & Casey!

We are off to capture a beautiful day with Keri & Casey in Carmel.  We will be working late into the night so we might try and post one or two images tomorrow of the happy couple!

The countdown has begun....

The new iPhone is almost in my eager little hands! 
So in just a few hours the fabulous iPhone will be out and after waiting all this time I wont be here when it does!  I'm headed up north for a wedding!  So because I have the BEST husband in the whole world... he is going to pick mine up and it will sit here just waiting for me to come home.  I think this is my husbands way of making sure I don't hang out too long in Carmel!

Can't resist sharing a couple more Pirates....

What can I say- all of these boys have eyes that will make all the girls follow them around in a few more years!

So this concludes our Pirates for now... We had a GREAT time and I think we had the most polite group of pirates to ever set sail!  Thanks for a great Pirate Week guys!  We are already talking about a little pirate encore perhaps this Fall we had so much fun!

If you are dying to do a Pirate Session and missed the boat (ha ha pun intended!) don't worry- you still can.  We have the costumes and props on hand.  The session fee will be $150 instead of the Pirate Week Special.  One the upside it will be cooler! 

For the many emails we have received from fellow photographers- Yes, we will be featuring the Pirate set, costumes & props in our new Promo to Go package.  We are happy to set you up with your own fabulous Pirate Promotion.  Please contact the studio via email for more information and watch the blog for our big debut of the resources for photographers!

Move over boys... there is a new pirate in town!

Couldn't resist!  This stunning pirate is Miss Kimmie.  She not only can steal your treasure, but I'm thinking she is going to steal quite a few hearts in the years to come as well.  We had a great time discussing Pirates of the Caribbean- and of course Elizabeth Swan is her favorite pirate! 

So move over boys there is a new pirate in town!

Our Winner from Name our Pirate...

Here is Boyd- he was our winner from Name our Pirate!  Boyd won a free pirate session.  He did great.  We just had to giggle at Boyd giving me a lesson on pirate money! 
I swear he is saying "buy shoes"... hey interpret it as you like... I'm going with "this treasure could by Miss Stephanie lots of shoes!"

How about a little pirate from today...

Meet Zerek.  We think the mohawk on a Pirate is just too cute to pass up!

Don't worry- no Rum in the bottle he is holding!  You don't think we would waste the Rum do you?!?!
