Clare and Ben were married on August 13, 2011 at St  Andrews Lutheran Church in Cedar Rapids.  The reception was at the Lake McBride Golf Club. 

They were super to work with and up for anything photography wise.  🙂 

I truly wish you both a lifetime of happiness!  Thank you for choosing Visions Photography to photograph your special day!

Thank you also to Jaime Moquin for your always fantastic 2nd camera work!   🙂 

 

 

 

One of the things that I love about wedding photography is moments like these!  Mom and Dad are looking at each other and Clare is looking down the eisle at Ben!   Now take a look at the couple on the right!  🙂

Are you tired of the same old senior portraits?  Do you want something that represents the REAL you and is different from all your friends? 

How would you like to be treated like a top model or rock star for your Senior Portrait Session?    

We are excited to bring you a new package, something no one else in the area is offering.  We are so happy to be able to bring this type of Senior Photography to Eastern Iowa.  Special thanks to SAVVY EXCURSIONS LTD. Limousine Service and Dina Alsaid for working with us on this project.

The limousine will pick you up at your house, bring you to the studio for your makeup which will be done by a professional makeup artist.  We will then get in the limo to take you to three locations of your choice for pictures.  The makeup artist will come along for any “touch ups” that may be needed.  I will also have an assistant to aid in making the lighting for each image extraordinary.  We will also provide snacks and beverages of your choice to munch on along the way.  Parents and friends are also more than welcome to join us in the limo.

This new package includes the session fee, limo, makeup artist, photo assistant/ assistants,  in-house proofing session,  online gallery, $350 in studio credit you can use for any product we sell, and 120 wallets.   As with any of our packages, include friends or pets for free, no limits on clothing changes, no extra charge for black and whites or special effects. 

This will be a photo session you will remember for the rest of your life! 

All this for an introductory package price of $750 plus sales tax, a savings of $245.00 off  the regular price for this package, which will be $995.

Call NOW to book your session!!!  319-286-8483   This offer will end on August 31, 2011.

 

Other packages also available starting at 395.00 

As always have a great  day and stay positive!

Stubby is one of the best friends I’ve had in my life!  It’s so cool to see her finally find someone who REALLY makes her happy!  That someone is Josh and a great guy he is!   When they are together you can just tell they were meant for each other!  🙂   I truly wish you both a lifetime of happiness together and I can’t wait to photograph your wedding in 2013! 

As Always have a great day and Stay Positive!

This past Sunday I met up with Sheri and Justin to take some 1 year anniversary portraits! 

We started out in downtown Cedar Rapids, then made our way to Ellis Park.  We all had a great time and Justin was really into it!  LoL, if you know him, ask him about Volkswagen Bugs!  😉  Sorry Justin, I had to! 

A huge congratulations to Sheri and Justin on their upcoming anniversary, and a big thank you for choosing Visions Photography!

Leah and Taylor

Last Saturday I met Leah and Taylor at Palisades-Kepler State Park for their engagement pictures! 

We started out with a little hike to the stone gazaebo where there ended up being no wind, really hot and sticky.  We grabbed a few shots there then went down to the beach area where there was a breeze and about half the humidity.  MUCH better, LoL!

They were both super to work with and up for anything!  I had fun and think they did too!  I’ll be photographing their wedding on Aug. 27.

Thank you Leah and Taylor for choosing Visions Photography!  🙂

As Always have a great day and Stay Positive!

Amore’ Couple Sessions

Posted on by

We found a way to take our couple sessions to the next level.  🙂

The verbiage below and concept for these sessions are directly from a fellow photographer named Jesh De Rox http://www.jeshderox.com/  Thank you so much for the inspiration Jesh!  🙂  

The photography is mine!  🙂 

While the beginning of a journey together certainly deserves celebration, as your journey with each other continues, each additional step is an achievement worth celebrating just as much, if not more.

Because of the way our minds work, the clarity we have about the importance of the ones we love can become muddy over time.  Though always within our reach, responsibilities, and misunderstandings can stack up between us.  Our ability to recognize what is precious is often set aside.

If a social ritual could be established in which couples are regularly invited to experience what is most precious in each other, the ripple effect of that clarity could shift the world.  This is the dream of Amore’ Couple Sessions.

Amore’ is not just a photo session, it’s a celebration of the love between you!  It’s designed with fun little exercises.  These exercises are designed to bring the two of you closer and rekindle that fire you shared when you first started dating.  This will in turn create some awesome moments to capture.

As Always have a great day and Stay Positive!
