Product Samples | Gadsden, AL photographer

Thursday, February 18th, 2010
So, this past week I have been ordering and updating product samples and taking photos of them for the website.  The quality is amazing and each item looks so great in person.  The photographs of the products don’t do them justice. Of course, the samples will be brought to every in-person ordering session, so that you can touch and see every detail.  
 These products will look amazing personalized with your images and custom designed just for you!! 
Now, on to the products…
Here is the 4×6 custom image box with magnetic closure.  Your custom design will wrap across the entire cover.  All clients ordering this product will be able to choose the colors, number of images, and text.  It is such a great way to display and store the proofs from your session.

The little item below is the deluxe custom CD case.  Your custom design will be wrapped around the entire cover of the case. All clients ordering this product will be able to choose the colors, number of images, and text. The case also has a magnetic closure to keep your disc secure.  
The luxurious item below is the fine art album with lay-flat pages.  Each album comes with 10 pages (20 sides), but more can be added for an additional charge. The press printed pages are thick, high quality, and lay completely flat, so that the images are not distorted by the binding.  Pages can be ordered with a matte or pearl finish. The high quality hardback cover is completely customizable to your preferences.
  These albums are truly spectacular.

Photography Website and Snow | Gadsden, Alabama

Saturday, February 13th, 2010
The first bit of exciting news is that the website is now live at http://www.angelablakephotography.com.  I have been working quite a bit the past week on getting everything prepared for the launch of the new site.  Of course,  I will keep it  updated with new photos and new information/changes/etc…  I have some other things that I am working on, so make sure to keep an eye out.
So,  we had a nice little surprise today…  3-4 inches of snow!!!  That is more snow than we have seen in a long time. We took our pups out to play in it, and they loved it.  They have never seen snow like that (especially our littlest baby, as it is her very first snow)  Of course, their little outing would not be complete with out a few photos.

another change…

So, you may have noticed yet another change to the look of the blog.  
 This “should” be the last major change in the style for a while. 
Lately, I have been working on different designs and branding, and I think I have finally settled on one…
Coming up with a cohesive design that would fit all different genres of photography and still adhering to my personal style was a lot harder than I had anticipated.
 (a special thanks to all those that helped me decide. :-) )

Also, here are some wedding detail shots as a little bonus to this post….
