Mini sessions

I'm now scheduling two mornings of mini sessions, one this Saturday, September 21st in Herriman and one October 12th at Draper City park. A session will include 20 minutes of shooting, all editing and pictures on a CD. Only $60! If you schedule for October by the end of this month I'll give you $10 off. Now that's a deal! GREAT for those Christmas pics. Contact me for open times.

Christmas is coming!

Whether you yell that with joy and excitement or dread and terror, the fact remains, Christmas is coming!!
If you are looking for a truly unique gift for someone (or yourself!) look no further. I design custom subway art! Pick your size, pick your colors, pick your words and phrases and any other preferences you may have, then let me create a one of a kind statement piece you and they will love. It can be finished as wrapped canvas, or I can send you a digital only copy for you to print yourself.

11x14 wrapped: $95 or digital $45

16x20 wrapped: $110 or digital $50

20x24 wrapped: $135 or digital $55

24x36 wrapped: $180 or digital $65

Custom sizes also possible. Ask me for a quote!

Also available in limited quantities: Sets of 12 seasonal 8x10 subway art matte prints. Easy to swap out of any 8x10 frame throughout the year for fun and classy decorating. Normally $25, now on sale for $20! (Your copies will not have the Sweet Sassafras watermark).

So call, email or text me to purchase or if you have any questions. Thanks! 

Mini-Sessions

I will be doing mini-sessions on Saturday, October 13th in Draper. 20 minutes of shooting, all editing and a copyright released CD of your images $60.  Call now if you want to get on the schedule.  I will fill up!

Big Announcement!

OK, so I have a big announcement here people! In addition to portrait photography, 
Sweet Sassafras Photo is now offering customized Subway Art for purchase. 

Woo hoo!!  

What is subway art, you query? So, let me 'splain. No, there's too much. Let me sum up.

Subway art is art made out of words, usually printed on canvas.  Customized subway art is a wonderful and meaningful way to "sum up" your family, 
your relationship, your home, your child or any event or person or people you would like to celebrate.  

Exhibit A (&B,C,D,E...):

(I blanked out a few spots for privacy reasons.)

I LOVE the one I did for my family that's hanging in our family room.  It really makes a statement about who we are as a family and what we believe in.  

These are so great for gifts, too!  Wedding, house warming, graduation, anniversary, baby, baptism, mission... even as office decor for a business!

You can pick the words or quotes, color(s), sharp or scuffed up, and whether you would like it on a DVD to print on your own, or if you would like me to deliver it on stretched canvas!  

Sizes and prices:

8x10: canvas $75 or digital copy $40

11x14: canvas $85 or digital copy $40

16x20: canvas $100 or digital copy $50

20x24: canvas $125 or digital copy $50

24x36: canvas $170 or digital copy $60

custom sizes by quote

So, there you have it and now you know!  Give me a buzz if you would like me to start creating one for you!   

Mini-Sessions

In the news!

My friend Brittany had an article printed in the Deseret News and Mormon Times. She asked for my help, and as a result I had some pictures published with the article. Nice! To see it, click here.

County Fair Results:

Out of my three entries (each person can only enter three)

the following picture  received a second place ribbon...

This next one got a first place ribbon...

And this last one, well, it got a first place ribbon and a plaque which reads,

"Salt Lake County Fair - Photography 2010 Award of Excellence."

Happy Dance!!  A big thanks to all of these great models!  I ♥ my job...

Help!

I'm thinking of entering the County Fair.  I have many favorites, but I've narrowed it down to these due to categories, etc.  (Of course, I'll get the subject's OK first.)  Which three would you chose to enter?  Please vote!

I've had so many darling clients!  It was incredibly difficult to narrow it down to these!  Thanks for your help!
