I just can't wait.  I might not be able to sleep tonight!   Here is the setup ready to go!

Hope to see you soon!

Feeling beautiful is something from the inside out..

......but with magazines, movies, tv show and peer pressure....our young girls are learning at a young age that you have to be "perfect" to be beautiful. 

I feel that beauty starts from within.  Everyone has their best feature, everyone can point out things they wish they could change.  I know I do.  

I also know that women want to look their bests in portraits and that is where I come in with camera angles, lighting and a little photoshop magic.

I am posting a before and after of myself.  I took this portrait today.  




I am not a size 0 but with photoshop I can take off a size or two.

Before I post your pictures in the gallery I always make sure everyone looks their best.   This is included in my sessions, I will remove any blemish, whiten teeth and if you like make you a size or two slimmer.  If you want more done after I have posted your gallery there is an extra charge of $20 per image.

Santa is coming.....to my STUDIO!!!!!

Yes he is!   I have TWO dates for this December 15th and December 19th!  

Spots for Saturday the 15th are filling up fast, but don't worry I still have Wednesday December 19th!

Want a spot?  Check out my facebook page and see what times I have left!

Casting Call Date for 18+.....

Saturday January 19, 2013.

Must be able to be at my studio at 11am to get your hair and makeup done.

Only 3 spots open for this (plus one friend).  Don't worry, you will each go into the studio with either your friend only or just you during the photo session.  

You must be someone that I haven't done a private session with, if I have photographed your kids or a family portrait with you in it you still can be part of the casting call.

1st 3 ladies that send me an email with "Casting Call 18+" in the subject.  Will have the session.   pictureme@ojwstudios.com 

I will email each one of you back to let you know if you are in. 

It is time for all women to feel beautiful! 

BOOKED!!!  Thank you!

Now is the time to book your Sexy Valentine Sessions.....

Book your Sexy Valentine Session now!

 

All January & February long!!!!!

For $450 you will get one hour with a makeup artist and a hair stylist.  Then about an hour in my studio.   A box set of 15   8x10 prints of your choice from your session and your side show of the session on DVD for you. (example of the slide show is above yours wouldn't not have photo numbers in it).

After February the price will be $600!

So book now!

As much as I love photographing families and children, I feel this need to photograph women and help them feel beautiful!   Most women don't like to be in photos because they don't feel perfect!  Well I feel NO one is perfect and that is what makes everyone beautiful! 

I am looking for 3 women who I haven't photographed before who are willing to show before and after pictures from their session.   There will be no session fee, just bring some sexy outfits and some casual outfits.   Don't worry about not being perfect.  Just let me know what you love about yourself and what you want to hide from the camera. With lighting, poses and camera angles we can make that happen!   You will only get facebook images, if you want prints  you will get 25% off.


The date for this is will be in January. You may bring one friend to have this same experience with you.   Want more information?  Email me at pictureme@ojwstudios.com

I wanted to start this new system to help with those who earn points, now credits.  With the new system anyone can earn credits.  You don't need to be a rep.  More information on how you can earn credits will be posted on a blog later this week.

You can view my print price list on my website www.ojwstudios.com

As always I don't want you to spend more than you can budget.   I want to work with you and your family so I offer payment plans and I accept credit cards with paypal!  With Payment plans you do not get your prints or CD until payment is made in full.

Any questions or you want to know more about payment plans please email me at pictureme@ojwstudios.com.

Remember you get two 11x14 prints for you and those same pictures you used on the 11x14 on a CD with rights to print up to an 8x12 and as many as you like.  So you can send Grandma an 8x10 and all the kids Aunts and Uncles wallets or 5x7!

Want to earn an extra 2 credits and 8 wallets to go with your mini session?

Here is how:

Share this blog post on your facebook wall, then come back here and post a comment on this post.  That is it.  Simple as Christmas Pie!



Want to earn more credits to use towards a future session?  If you haven't liked my facebook page www.facebook.com/OJWSTUDIOS please go like it.  I will be gifting credits all December long to random people who comment on my facebook posts!

Textures.... love it or hate it?

I want to know more about you, my clients.  Do you like textures?  Do you like close ups? 

If you like this stuff let me know.  I love artsy portraits like these and want to make sure you do too before I start your session!  Starting January 2013, all my sessions will have a few portraits like these.

Leave a comment below and tell me what you think.
