Pinterest Addiction...

12/27/2012

0 Comments

 
I joined Pinterest over a year ago, and I already have (roughly) 3,500 pins. Now, this account is my personal account and is not really used for my own business, but to find awesome recipes, cute new clothes, and all the cool new gadgets. I know what an awesome difference just pinning a *few* of my own images to this site has been to my blog stats, so I have decided to create a Pinterest account simply for all my business needs!
You can find more deals, blog posts, images, What to Wear Guides, and inspiration 
from Natalie Bee Photography on my new Board:

Natalie Bee's First Publication

12/23/2012

0 Comments

 
Remember this engagement session from a few weeks ago, Chad & Bekah...?
Well, after much thought, I decided to submit this session to Apple Brides, for my first possible publication as a photographer. You know what those ladies went and did? They actually published it!!!

I am so incredibly happy right now, tears of joy stream down my face. This Holiday season might be second best ever, next to last year, when I got engaged to the love of my life! :)

I want to extend a huge Thank You to all those over at Apple Brides, for putting a smile on this mama's face!

Baby Safety First...Even if it is Not a Newborn!

12/17/2012

0 Comments

 
It needs to be said, both to my clients and fellow photographers: BABY SAFETY IS ALWAYS FIRST!!

It doesn't matter if you are working with a newborn, or a 3 month old, or a 6 month old, or a 12 month old...their safety always comes first and foremost. This edit took me about 10 minutes total to clone out the dad's arm holding onto his son's back (before), and to warm it up and haze it out a bit. Although this little man was okay at sitting on his own, he was still a tad bit wobbly, so he just needed a little extra support :)

As a mother myself, I will always treat the children I photograph as if they were my own. I would never do a setup with another child that I would not attempt on my own kiddos. That being said, I always make sure to take to parents beforehand to see if they are okay with the certain pose or setup I am trying to accomplish.

Changes to Natalie Bee Photography in 2013

12/13/2012

0 Comments

 
This year cannot really be described in words, other than 'Amazing'. I have met so many amazing people, both clients and fellow photographers, and watched couples grow into families. 2012 has been a year of monumental personal discovery and reflection, and I know now, after a year, what I want my 'niche' to be! My heart will always be with everything that has to do with babies: Maternity, Birth, Newborn, Nursing & Toddler photography. 


Although I will be photographing other things when asked to do so, I want to focus in on what I feel is my strong point, and the part about this job I love the most. With that being said, there will be LOTS of changes to my business for the oncoming 2013...

Picture

  • I will be offering 4 different 'Grow With Me' packages. These will be documenting the first year of a child's life, at a nicer-looking price. I LOVE growing with families, so this will be a personal favorite...
  • Two words: Payment. Plan. :)
  • Every session will come with digital images, resized just for online sharing and 4x6 printing! High-resolution images will also be offered, just for those clients who like to go BIG with their prints; Offering more products & prints to my clients, as I know they appreciate their well-spent money also going to showing them off to family & friends.
  • I will be working with more causes & with a few charities I admire, such as Inland NW Baby, local Animal Shelters, and Donate Life America, to raise awareness and much-needed extra funds.
  • I will be having Casting Calls for models!! These could be any of the following: Pregnant mamas, Breastfeeding mamas, newborns, toddlers or couples.
  • I will be featuring my favorite vendors & products (SO stoked about this one!)
  • Showing more Baby Safety & Behind the Scenes.
  • I have teamed up with the sweetest Doula, Andrea of Two Roads Birth Services, to offer an amazing deal for both Doula services and Birth Photography! (see link here) So, that means: More birth images! These may be graphic in nature, but still very beautiful!
  • And last but not least...a special little project for each maternity session, that every parent will LOVE, called the "I Hope Project".
