Senior Sneak Peek | Dallas Senior Portrait Photographer

It might be the middle of winter but things are only getting hotter around here. From the amazing onslaught of spring and summer sessions which are coming this way, the new products we're testing, and the restructuring of our collections and product pricing, things are aimed to keep everyone on their toes.

One of the coolest new additions is the way we will be posting out sneak peeks for high school seniors. I know you want the full Hollywood treatment from start to finsh, and as such your images will be displayed in a fully unique way to show off the amazing session you had.

Today's sneak peek is for Brendan, a senior this year whom I had the honor of spending an afternoon with downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan trying out new ideas and getting a little quirky. He wanted something different from what anyone else would have, and I think we managed to nail it on the head.

Enjoy the sneak!

Model Search | Dallas Tx Senior Photography

Things are heating up over here even if it is nearly freezing outside. I've been going through last years sessions and seeing all the Senior sessions got me thinking that it's about that time to locate my Model Reps for this next year.

So, if you're a junior, and looking for senior portraits which are as unique and funky as you are, then listen up. I just posted all the info for the Model Rep program on the website ( http://www.sarahannephoto.com ).

The coolest thing, however, is that this coming year each senior will receive an extra special treat for their sneak peeks. Want a hint? Check out the example I put together of some of my favorite female images from 2008.



I am in LOVE with these new slideshows. And seniors can get the code to post them on their facebook or myspace pages! It's brilliant.

So, if you're outgoing, with a lot of personality, and think you have what it takes, then send me an email and sign up for the program! Or if you know a Junior who is really special, send them over and have them sign up.

And don't forget to check out our facebook page and show some love by being a fan.

I can't wait to talk to everyone about the Model Rep program and start setting up your FREE Spring session. I have some awesome ideas I'm looking forward to trying out and some new locations. It geeks me out.

Super Senior Specatular | Dallas Senior Graduation Portraits

I've been thinking long and hard about this announcement. I talked it over with a few friends, gathered their ideas, and finally decided to just go with it.

On of the hardest parts about being in business for myself is when someone approaches me wanting my photography talent, but can't afford my posted prices. Most of the time I have to suggest another photographer because if I lowered my prices any, I would be unable to pay my own bills. And it makes me sad to see so many people not be able to have quality portraits.

So, as a very special offer to all my fabulous high school seniors, I am offering a specially designed session just for those who might not be able to afford my full sessions.

One Hour
One Outfit
One Location
One Sheet of Wallets
One Digital File
(15 proofs to select from)

All for $325 - Must be paid in full upon booking your session date.

Additional prints or albums may be purchased at regular price.

Sneak Peek | Fort Worth Senior Portraits

I had the wonderful experience of meeting a fabulous young woman this past weekend. We spent four hours together braving the summer heat and talking about whistling and snapping fingers, and, oh yeah, also took her senior portraits. We had so many amazing images I just couldn't limit myself and had to post an extra long sneak peek tonight.








Of these two, I can't decide which I like better. Thoughts?







And of course, we made our way downtown for some fabulous night photography. It was a perfect evening for it and while I have just gobs of pictures to look through, I thought I would post two of them here quickly.






Thanks so much for an amazing time S & Dad. I'm glad you two stuck it out for the whole session despite some crazy ideas of mine.

Senior Portrait

This sneak is really late and I apologize for that! Between taking a Maymester right after finals and summer starting I've been slammed and hardly had time for anything. I'm so glad I was able to finally meet up with C and get her senior portraits done. We did a combo session starting in the Botanical gardens first and then moving on to the City after a break for come caffeine in between. It was a wonderful night and I'm stoked to get these images to her once they're done.

Enjoy!











2009 Seniors, we're opening appointments for 2009 senior portraits. We still have a few spots open for seniors reps too! Fort Worth Senior Portraits

Yay it's so fun!

So many things to talk about! Hang on for a fun post full of updates.

One, you might have noticed the new look I have going on at the portfolio site? ( http://sarahannephoto.com/ ) I updated the splash page to give you a little taste of the fun things I have coming this summer. We're updating our entire image, a little "face lift", just to keep things looking how we feel. ;-) And we've give the little bitty babies a space of their own. Who can resist looking at their scrunchie goodness?

Along with that, you likely see that we have a whole new portal coming out this summer. Dun dun dun. If that excites you, be sure to check back in next week for a crazy give-away I will be doing.

And I still have one slot open for my Boudoir Hotel session on the 17th! Buy in is only $75 for 1.5 hours. More info here : http://www.sarahanne.net/2008/04/boudoir-session-reminder.html

Alex and I met up and finished her second half of her senior portraits. You may remember her from earlier in this post. I had a fabulous time and her proofs are sent to the lab and I can't wait to get them back and see how delicious they are! Take a sneak peek -

I need cool new titles...

I'm running out of witty titles to use for my blog posts. You all should give me some ideas.

I met up with M today for another mini session. The botanical gardens were full of prom and wedding dresses but we managed to find a few secluded locations for her senior pictures.

Can I just say, again, how much fun I have with seniors? They're always up for some fun and creative ideas. Especially when they bring their boyfriend along and things get a little crazy when I suddenly go "Tackle her NOW!"

You should have seen her face. ;-)

Enjoy the sneak peek. I'm off to work on Microbiology and start getting ready for finals.




















*** Note ***
I've been having so much fun with these mini sessions I've decided to clear two more spots. Mini sessions are about 45 minutes long and will include 10 - 15 proofs from one location. The cost is $325 and includes 5 proof files on CD for your own personal printing and option to add on additional prints or products at normal price. Email me for more information or to book a spot.

Oh, Ah, A Senior

Last night started out disappointing. The location I originally wanted to try out for this session was just not going to work. The wind last night was so fierce it felt like we were going to be toppled over. Luckily, we decided to try some photos down town Fort Worth again and ended up with amazing results. I'm so excited to share a couple of these.





We stopped by Barnes and Noble for a little catching up on our Best Sellers.



And then walked by this awesome motorcycle.













And one of my all time favorites, taken inside the parking garage,

Now Booking Senior Reps!

If you're graduating in '09 and open to fun and creative pictures you should be thinking about being one of our Senior Reps.

Say What?

Senior reps are specially picked from each school to give us a little "test run" for their peers.

What you get -

• A 2 hour personalized session with Sarah Anne in May with an option to add on another session in the fall.
• An online gallery of your proofs with the option to post proof pictures on your facebook or networking site of choice. (This is an exclusive offer to our senior reps!)
• A complimentary gift of a session album with 24 of your favorite images from your spring session.
• 20% off any additional prints or products.
• And, the cool part, $10 for every friend you send our way who books a session this summer. You cannot beat our deal.

We only accept one guy and one gal per school so hurry and contact us for your slot!

What the lawyer wants me to say - Must be willing to sign a model release for use of your images on future marketing materials and website portfolio.

It's Edgy

My amazing friend Alex who modeled for me this past summer hired me to do her senior portraits. She wanted something "edgy" and different and totally non traditional. So we spent the evening downtown playing with the lights and shadows. Posting a sneak peek for her.

Senior Pictures - Calling Class of '09

I am looking to put together a focus group of members of the class of '09. This will be about 5 or 6 seniors who are fairly well integrated amongst their peers and have a good idea of what's "in" and what's "out". We are going to spend some time over breakfast getting to know each other a little, then I will show you some sample products and we will brainstorm together on a few topics. At the end, we will have a mini photoshoot together and try out a new location or two.

You do not have to be "into" photography in order to attend. I'm actually just looking for a couple relaxed easy going seniors who like to talk and wouldn't mind spending a day getting their photo taken.

If you're interested, please email me at sarah@sarahannephoto.com and we'll discuss the details.

Sneak Peek - M & Bonus example Slide Show

Here is a sneak peek for M of his senior pictures. We had a great afternoon out at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens for these. I also was able to put together his slide show of his session from start to finish. I love when I can finish a session and watch the show with the music and see my work done in front of me and just appreciate it for five minutes without worrying about anything. (link to view slide show at end of post)












If you'd like, here is a link to the slide show for you to see an example of what one is like. One of the changes in 2008 is having the slide shows be a gift to all my clients who purchase $500 or more in prints or a portrait collection. It's my way of showing my appreciation for your patronage.

Matthew's Senior Session

And ACTION!
