I’m just emerging from a crazy weekend, in which I didn’t even get time to tell you about what I was up to LAST week! So, here it goes…
This year’s Easter mini-sessions with the sofa are filled, so I’ve decided to put an extra two dates out there! March 17th and March 30th I’ll be in Huntington Beach and a local park with an amazing long grass field. These will be sunset photo sessions with times starting at 5:30 and ending at 7:00.
I loved this location last year…so I’m excited to bring it back this year! The details are the same: $100 for a 20 minute photo session. As an extra incentive, if you sign up with a friend, you both get a free digital image of your choice! Email me at info@kristineldridge.com or give me a call to book your session! 562-980-6480
This time last year Bethany and I were hustlin’ this white sofa to and fro. One of my favorites from last year was this wonderful repeat client. Her boys are so cute and go from drop-dead gorgeous serious looks to smiles that will light up a room!
Play date photo sessions are in full swing and here’s a bit of what I’ve been up to this week!
Sometimes you mull over an idea that’s just that…an idea. a concept. Until all the stars align and that idea has blossomed into reality. The whole process starts with scouring all the usual spots. Craigslist, thrift stores, estate sales and the flea market. I’m looking for a piece of furniture that speaks to me. Something that will inspire me to create.
A whole slew of other things has to happen. The price has to be right. The best-husband-ever has to go pick it up. It has to fit inside a sequoia. I have to convince best-ever-husband to load it back into said sequoia for a series of practice shoots. Does my location work? What time of day will it work best? What will the children wear? What will I bribe them with? Can you hang a chandelier from a tree? Oh you know, all the things you check of your list at the end of the day.
Soooo. All the stars aligned and I think I’m more excited about these mini-sessions than any others before. You guys, the location is just. Well, it’s perfect. And it’s in Long Beach. The sofa, it is also perfect. Vintage yet modern- in rich velvet. The chandelier. Hello, gorgeous!
That’s right! I’m back at the best children’s boutique…Rascals to Rebels! This time I’ll be at the Rossmoor store on March 9, 10 and 11. It’s a Friday, Saturday and Sunday with morning and afternoon time slots. Here’s how it works…head over to the store and make a purchase (like a super cute outfit for Easter!). You can sign up in the store for your FREE 15 minute photo session when you spend a minimum of $50 at the store.
This event is for kids only (the backdrop just isn’t very big) and once you see your photos, you only buy what you want…there’s no minimum purchase requirement.
Here’s a few sample pictures on the spring backdrop with the adorable Addison and Jillian!
This was a shoot I did this summer for Mim Pi’s 2011 fall line. I love these sweet little models…they were the cutest!
Here’s what I’ve been up to this week!
Crystal Cove…over 2 and half years ago.
And just like that, Valentine’s mini-sessions are wrapped!
