Baby C

Here are some recent baby shots. What a little sweetie.

March has been a busy month and it looks like April and May will continue the trend. As business is growing, I'm no longer photographing for friends but my name is being passed around a bit. It's very exciting and encouraging. I feel so blessed to be getting to meet all these great families and to capture some special moments for them.

Three Little Boys

I just had to post this one.
Three brothers from the session on Saturday - 5 yrs, 3.5 yrs, and almost 2 mos -
They were such sweet little guys and this was just too precious.
Don't let the pose fool you- those older boys had plenty of energy. This was just a quick break.

BetterPhoto Picture of the Day

okay, I'm really excited here because I woke up this morning to see an email saying one of my pictures has been selected as a Picture of the Day for BetterPhoto. What it means is that my picture was chosen to be published on today's newsletter. I thought it was pretty cool and it happens to be one of my favorite pictures.

so here's the picture

and here's the link if you want to see the nifty little button :-)

Picture of the Day

2009

I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who have supported me this year and to call attention to some changes. In this first year of business, Jodi Walsh Photography was a success! I started out last year not knowing if this was really something that I could do (as many of us worry when beginning a new adventure). Through the course of the year, though, I came to believe that this was definitely something that I not only could do but could also be good at. It's been a blessing to have discovered a creative outlet that I can also share with others. That's so important to me.

I thank those of you who were patient with me. This has been a learning process and has been so rewarding to see the improvements in my work as well as to work with so many generous families and some absolutely adorable kids.

A huge thank you to my husband, Andy. Without him, this really wouldn't have happened. He's been my encourager, my business manager, my technical adviser and my childcare provider. Not to mention the best hubby and friend a girl could have.

I hope to continue to work and grow in 2009 (maybe even expanding to include some studio lighting). We'll have to see what the year brings.

So far, the only change on the horizon will be that I will be increasing the price for prints. I really struggled with this decision and I hope you will still find my rates reasonable. The session fee will still be the same ($40)

** starting January 2009 **

Pricing for prints:

4x6 - $2.00 8x10 - $6.00
5x7 - $4.00 11x14 - $8.00
A sheet of 4 wallets - $2.00

May you all be blessed and happy this new year!

I'm still keeping busy as we draw closer and closer to Christmas. Here are two angels from this past weekend. These little ones had the most amazing eyes and were such good sports letting me follow them around with the camera.
God Bless!
