“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

Parks Family

Last Sunday I had the privileged of taking this beautiful family's pictures. We started out at Melton Hill just as the sun was setting and ended up at the Covered Bridge neighborhood. Great locations and a great family!

Details

If you are interested in having your photos taken with Bonnie Ellen Photography, these are a few details you might be interested in.
 Pricing
  • $40 for one hour at one location 
  • $60 for 1 1/2 hours at one location 
  • $80 for two hours at two different locations. (Travel time included in the two hours)
*These prices are the same for Family, Senior and Engagement pictures. 

Pictures
The pictures will be returned to you within two weeks on two CDs. One CD with the edited photos and the other with the originals. 

 Props 
 Props are always a fun thing to bring along for your photo shoot. Examples:
  • Favorite stuffed animals, games, bubbles.
  • Chair
  • Over-sized lolly pops for the children and vintage coke bottles for the adults 
  • Hats, sunglasses or umbrellas  
 What to wear
Here are a few tips on what to wear for a great photo shoot:
  •  Be comfortable. You want your pictures to look like you are having fun, so don't wear something that will make you look uncomfortable. 
  • Try picking out colors that will coordinate together. For example, you could have everyone wearing different pastel colors and jeans. Try not to wear bold clothing that will be out of style in two years. The pictures are about you, not your clothing. 
  • Be yourself. If you are a family or couple that typically dresses casual don't have a photo session with the fanciest dress in your closet. You want the clothes to reflect you. 
*Please realize that the above notes are only suggestions for better pictures. You are the customer and you should decide what you and your family want to wear. I will work with whatever you desire to wear.

Peterson Photo Shoot

Today was a perfect fall day for a photo shoot!
 My sister and her beautiful family were up for some family pictures.





Bringing a favorite family game along is 
always a good idea for fun, creative photos.
