Wow, it’s been a busy weekend! On Saturday we shot three maternity clients, and also had our friend Bruce from First Sight Pictures in doing video of one session and taping testimonials from one of my longest clients. Then on Sunday we held our second Bridal Open House and had several wonderful couples come by to look through our albums and discuss our services – some even took advantage of our booking special and now we have a wedding as far out as April of 2009 on the calendar now!
One of my favorite things about our specialties of weddings, maternity and newborn photography is that we get to become part of our client’s lives’ most important moments. My clients often become friends and we create relationships that last for years! One great example is a wonderful couple named Kayela & Jake. They were referred to me by another bride of mine that had worked with Kayela. They were planning their wedding and looking for a photographer. I started by doing their engagement session back in 2005 
, then they had a beautiful beach wedding on New Years Eve 
; Kayela practically got pregnant on the wedding night because late summer of 2006 I was privileged to do their maternity photos 
and was honored to be able to capture the delivery of their son, Hayden 
. Ofcourse we did the newborn session and we made this birth announcement for them 
. And then Kayela wanted to do a gift for Jake so once she was back in shape (it didn’t take her too long), we did a glamour session
. Last year Hayden turned one and Kayela and Jake brought the little man in and we had a blast doing pictures to commemorate is first birthday 
.
So with our new website we are going to be incorporating some video content with the help of Bruce from First Sight Pictures (possibly the best videographer I’ve ever seen). He came in on Saturday and taped Kayela, Jake and Hayden doing a video testimonial for us. I haven’t seen the footage yet and I need to get Bruce some images to put into the trailer he’ll create for us, so look for it in the near future. He also taped me in action shooting a maternity session so that clients interested in that specialty will be able to see how we work to create those beautiful images.
Lots going on at Damon Photography so keep checking back to see what’s new.
