Just Jack!

While visiting our friends in Denver, we made time for an impromptu photo shoot with Baby Jack. He is just as cute as a button! I spent the majority of my time in Denver holding him and making faces at him. Hope I'm not getting baby fever! :)

Kate and Galen (mommy & daddy) - hope you like the photos! You have the most adorable, happy-go-lucky little man!

Give the Gift of... Memories!!

Just in time for the holidays, Harrington Photography is now offering Gift Certificates - good for photo sessions, prints, or designs! Harrington Photography Gift Certificates are great gifts for baby showers, weddings, anniversaries, holidays, and more!

I hope that both current and new clients will take advantage of this opportunity for their family and friends. Gift certificates can be purchased with cash or check.

New Posters!

My co-workers at the college where I work have been bugging me to decorate my office. My wonderful office mate moved out several weeks ago and it left our office very bare. Hey - I got an ivy plant! It's growing, but the walls are still bare, just empty hooks hanging there.

I've been wanting to hang up some "inspirational" posters, but didn't want to spend the money on the posters and framing. On the other hand, I just got back from an AMAZING Colorado vacation, so I put two and two together. Voila! I have created my own Harrington Photography Inspirational Posters. And you can have one of your own, too!

Also, I'm still fine-tuning the quotes. I just got really excited to share what I came up with tonight. Here are two samples that will soon be proudly displayed in my office, printed as 16"x20" prints in black frames. More to come!

Hmmm... should the second poster say "Serenity" instead? Any key word ideas? I'm open to hear them!

P.S. You like the new watermark? I'm trying to streamline all my labels/logos/etc.

New Toys!

I want everyone to know that have the most wonderful husband who lets me buy new "toys" (i.e. equipment) for my business, without even a hesitation. :) Just a few weeks ago, he got me the Canon 430EX Speedlite as an anniversary gift, and last night he let me go wild and buy the brand new, latest and greatest from Canon - the Canon 50D! AND, the kit including the brand new 18-200mm lens with Image Stabilization.

And, don't forget the lens hood that came with the kit!

I get so many more features, including 15.1 megapixels of goodness and up to 12,800 ISO. Plus the lens has image stabilization and a better aperture that my current zoom lens. It just feels so much more solid than my Rebel XTi. When all the gear is hooked up on it, it gets quite heavy on the wrist!

I've been too busy to play around with it too much, but I'm dilligently reading the manual. I'm considering giving the camera a whirl on my Colorado trip next week. I'm hoping to have some BEAUTIFUL photos to post from that adventure!

See you all when I return!

Announcing Baby Sophie!

I've been working hard since before Sophie's arrival for her birth announcement. Finally, it is complete! Welcome Sophie!

Fun fact - when designing the announcements, I filled in "fake" information about Sophie to serve as a template. And, I put that she was born on September 14th, weighed 7 pounds 8 ounces, and was 21 inches long. I was only off by an ounce! So, it seems that I'm psychic, too. Also, I loved working with all the different pink colors. Baby announcements are so much fun! Beth and Chris - I hope your family enjoys receiving their announcements!

I also finalized my logo for any of my design product cards and announcements, so Harrington Photography Designs is officially up and running!

If you know anyone who's expecting, pass on the word! Birth announcements are available as part of Baby's First Year Packages, as well! Happy Fall!
