Trash the Dress

Hello all my brides out there! I thought that I would pose a question to you -- who wants to TRASH THE DRESS for some amazing pictures?!?! I have been wanting to do this for a long time, and a couple of local KC photographers were published in the NY Times today:

New York Times Article

So any of my former brides who still have your dress out -- contact me if you want to have an AMAZING session of totally unique images!

...Meet Jenni!...

For some of my past brides, you may already know this face -- but for some of my future brides meet Jenni! For the larger weddings, Jenni is my assistant for the course of your wedding day! She is a stickler for details -- in group shots she is making sure that everyone has their buttons buttoned, no Livestrong bands showing, and necklaces are all straight. She has my next round of memory cards ready, and helps tote some of my stuff around -- because there sure is a lot of it!

But of course, she likes to grab the camera sometimes and snap images of what I look like when shooting -- it isn't pretty, but at least the shots are FUNNY!! :)

...Always Learning...

It is so important to keep learning in life, and I have found that to be especially true for myself as a photographer. The bar is going to continue to rise, and I want to be right there with it -- if not MORE. Today I have been exploring more Actions that I recently purchased from the Boutwell's -- and this husband/wife team are amazing. The best part is going back to old events that I photographed, and seeing what new things I can do now that I didn't know about before. Here are just a couple of the BEAUTIFUL brides that I have photographed in my 9 years of photography!


ENJOY!

PS: Tomorrow is one of the Senior sessions, and a little fun side-project that a friend has agreed to take part it. I love when friends can be involved in one of my visions! Stay tuned this week for some VERY DIFFERENT images!

...FREE Session!...

Don't forget about the search for Senior Girls to model their Prom dresses!
I have a couple of candidates, and I may take more to go downtown and do a complete fashion shoot in the Art District.

Check it OUT!

...Model Search!...

This is a message for all high-school senior girls out there!

I am looking for two of you to get some high-fashion portraits done downtown in your prom dresses! If you are, or know of any girls that would be interested in this -- the session will be FREE of charge! Send me your pictures along with a story about your dress, and if there are lots of candidates then we will let the people vote on the two winners!!!

Send them in fast, and pass this along!

...Canvas Prints!...

I love when prints are finished on canvas -- they just have this very high-end/artistic feel to them that you just cannot get with any other finishing! I just had two 16"x20" display canvases arrive from the FedEx man today -- and I had to get some photos of them on the blog for everyone to see because they are STUNNING!



Any of the images from my sessions can be ordered in this format, and if you are interested please see the wedding details section on my website for canvas pricing!

...New Year = NEW LOGO!!!...

Drum roll please.........

....it is the NEW logo for RPeters Photography!
There are some great things on the horizon, and I wanted to shake things up a bit with a new logo and color-scheme. Some big news is just around the corner...but I will keep you all in suspense!

Let me know your thoughts in the Cbox to the right!!!

...Did You Know - Part 2...

...that is has almost become a necessity to send Save the Date cards to your guests? People are so busy these days, that planning needs to be done around 6 months in advance to ensure that those people you care about most can attend your big day! I recently designed my own Save the Date, and have designed a few others as well -- so check them out, and consider this service with YOUR wedding!!

These are printed in 4x6 size, and are mailed like a postcard -- so no envelopes to worry about, or the standard postage!

...Did You Know - Part I...
