May Your Holidays be Merry and Bright

Wishing you a holiday season full of love, giving, kindness and cheer.

Just a reminder, E Tyler Photography is closed from December-March. There will be no voicemail or email contact December 15th- January 3rd and limited contact from January 3rd through March. Thank you all for such a wonderful year!

A Surprise Sunny Day

The other day I had my *last* portrait session for 2008. Being an on-location photographer during late fall/winter/early spring can be tough because we are at the mercy of the weather for outdoor sessions. Usually we have a great indoor backup, but I do love it when it works out to do the session outdoors.

We got lucky the other day. The end of November and it was BEAUTIFUL outdside. The day before had been chilly and the day after was not pleasant either, but the day of the session was just PERFECT. I’ve been photographing this little one since she was born and it is always such a fun time seeing how much she has grown.

The Miracle Worker

The Miracle Worker (Fossil Ridge High School’s latest production) gallery is up! You can view all the photos and purchase the CD here: http://etylerphotography.com/blog/fossil-ridge-high-school/

They did a BEAUTIFUL job with this play, I was honored to be asked to photograph it. Here are a couple of my favorites:

Fossil Ridge High School- The Miracle Worker

Hey all! FRHS’s fall play is this weekend- tonight and tomorrow at 7pm. I have not had a chance yet to get a sneak peek of the images up yet, but I don’t want anyone to miss this! Go see it! They do a GREAT job!!!

Look for a Sneak Peek of it (CD’s will be available for purchase as soon as I get the gallery up) sometime next week.

Just a quick note- this is an extremely busy time of year, which makes responding to emails and voicemails more difficult than usual. Your patience is appreciated! E. Tyler Photography will be CLOSED December-March, with sessions starting back up in April.

Keep watching for sneak peeks and news here! Have a great weekend!

Sneak Peek from Today

Because this week is going to be a CRAZY week, I wanted to get this up so I wouldn’t forget. What an amazing, beautiful family. It truly is so much fun to get to know each of the kids I photograph, everyone is so different.

A few notes for this week: All orders must be in by November 30th at the very latest. I can’t guarantee orders before the holidays after this date (if you are ordering canvas, please check with me on whether these will be here in time).  I have a few galleries not up yet and a couple sessions coming up, I will get the galleries up ASAP in order to allow you time to get your orders in before then. If you have any questions about this, let me know.

I will be photographing Fossil Ridge High School’s latest production this week, the show will be this weekend! Please watch the blog for a peek and for production times. 

Ok, I won’t hold you up any longer! Here’s the sneak peek!

Perfection

I could tell you a hundred reasons why I love what I do, but today I only need one.

ok… maybe two…

all right… just one more!

Something Fun

A while ago I was contacted by BetterPhoto about using some of my images in my BetterPhoto gallery for a book on photographing children. Betterphoto is such a great place for amateurs AND pros and there are a lot of talented people there. It really is a fun place, so if you have any interest in photography at all (either taking photos or just viewing them!), you should check the place out.

Well, a week ago I received news that two of my images (they submitted three of them to the editors for the book) were in the book. On October 31st, I received my own copy and sure enough, there they were. The parents of these two kiddos will be receiving a book from me too.

Here are the two photos:

Anyway, it was a lot of fun seeing two of my photos alongside some other well known photographer’s beautiful photographs. The book is geared towards parents and those who are trying to learn how to take better photos of their kids.

The book is called “The BetterPhoto Guide to Photographing Children” and is available through BetterPhoto and Amazon (and I’m sure a few other places too).  

Quick Public Service Announcement! VOTE!

I don’t talk politics here (and won’t ever!). I have clients, friends and family who come from all walks of life, all political parties and a wide variety of differences and I respect each and every person’s point of view. Isn’t that great how different each and every person is?

But I do want to remind you to let your voice be heard!! We’re coming into the home stretch (thank goodness, I think we are all a bit burnt out on political ads!), if you haven’t voted, VOTE!!!  It doesn’t matter whoever, whatever, or however you vote, just VOTE.

The great thing is we do have choices this year, some new people, some old people, some new things to vote on, some older things to vote on. The Colorado ballot is pretty long, so take a bit to read up on all the issues and decide how you will vote. The only thing better than voting is being an informed voter. :)

Happy Voting everyone!

E-Session

Just a quick note- my schedule is completely booked through the end of the year. E. Tyler Photography will be closed from December-March with limited sessions available starting April 2009. Thank you all for a great 2008!

Here’s a Sneak Peek!

The Glass Menagerie

Paragon Theatre opens on Saturday with The Glass Menagerie. You can read more about it and purchase tickets here: http://www.paragontheatre.org/theglassmenagerie.php

An absolute must see… tremendous performances all around! I am not a theatre critic,  but I have seen my share of productions. This one definitely hits my top list of must see performances. I found myself sympathetic to all the characters, even when I was frustrated with them.  Go see it!!

For my fellow photographers who peek in here from time to time, all of these were taken at no lower ISO than 1600 and most of them are at ISO 3200. I may be more in love with my camera than I was before. ;)
