Urban Session | Senior Session | Photo Fun Booth and some downtime....

I won't pretend as if I'm a wonderful blogger, since it is appearant that I am NOT! I did however commit to myself to begin blogging MORE.  Since my last post, it's been rather eventful, I did the Urban Session and got some great shots of 5 awesome girls! Photos will be posted to the blog soon, but you can see nearly 200 on facebook now.  www.facebook.com/AyersPhotographyDesign

The day after, I did a Senior Rep session with Marissa from Spanaway Lake High School (Class of 2012) Those will also be posted on the Blog soon too!

Then I had a whole week of downtime. I mean literally DOWN. Sitting at a 30 degree angle. I had sinus surgery last week, so that allowed me time to edit, time to fall asleep with my laptop on my lap, and time to work on new things being offered by AP&D. Namely... The Photo Fun Booth!

That is what I really wanted to blog about is the Fun Booth. It started out as just an idea. My husband had seen something similar, and was like "I can do that....Honey, we should do this!" So as a fundraiser for a senior rep, we did a little one. A friend saw photos, and she wanted it for her daughters birthday party. This month I have two booked in one weekend, and then the big event (our daughters 8th grade graduation dance) I am SO excited that this is growing into it's own animal. We are getting printers (tomorrow hopefully). Still trying to decide which printers to get. Thinking about a tent, so we can to photo booths outside, we have special business cards for the fun booth, and a cool banner too! Stay tuned for more exciting info, or in the meantime, if you wanna book just get in touch!  kristie@kristieayers.com

Photo Fun Booth | Puyallup Washington

So something new that we are having alot of fun with is the Photo FUN Booth!

We are now booking for parties and events!  This is very similar to those little booths that you drop your money into, step inside and snap some pictures at random moments while making funny faces, and getting your picture strip. Adults and kids alike will have a blast in the fun booth, and there is no limit on how many times they can enter the booth to have their photo taken.

Here are a few photos from a 7th Birthday Party this last weekend...

Kent Family Photographer ~ Lifestyle Photographer

Recently I met up with this wonderful family I have known for years.  Martie called me to tell me that her Daughter, Son-in-Law and Grandchildren had made a surprise visit from Chicago for her Birthday, and she would like to have family photos done.  I was so excited for her, and we met up on a Saturday afternoon just barely missing the rain! Here are a couple of shots from that session at Lake Meridian.

Lake Tapps Urban Lifestyle Photographer

How fun to be able to get tweens together who have been friends since preschool (ages 2,3 and 4 when they met) to do a super fun Urban lifestyle photo shoot. My daughters and two of their very best friends got the chance to be models for a day. It was so much fun with all of the girls. Here is a few shots of the whole group!

Sport Lifestyle Photographer ~ Covington, WA

My Nephews ROCK! :)  On Christmas Eve they asked me if I would come take pictures of them jumping.  My oldest Nephew just got a new bike.  It almost seems to be bigger than he is, but I'll tell you...that little guy knows how to ride!  My younger Nephew is also good (a little dare devil might I add). Here is just a few of the shots we got that day!

DVD Slideshow / Video Montage

So, the Holiday's are winding down, and we come upon a new year.  I've been busy.  Did I mention I'm not a good blogger?  Ok, well here I am, and I know it's been a while! 

This last month and a half, I've had a couple of photo shoots for Christmas Gifts...a photo book order, a few greeting card orders, worked in the Santa Booth at Victorian Country Christmas (not as photographer, but using my eye for cropping and printing pictures), and I've done a few DVD Slideshows! Two short ones, and one 30 minute one for a 40th Birthday Surprise!

This is what I wanted to tell you about today, DVD Slideshows!  What length can they be?  I've made slideshows from 3 minutes up to 50 minutes.  I have a couple of short examples here: http://kristieayers.smugmug.com/Ayers-Photography-and-Design/Videos/10377804_rBZsv#719372273_eNz3K

You can set an appointment to see examples of longer ones.  No matter what the occasion, a gift to a loved one, a Wedding, a special Birthday, a Graduation, or a Memorial Service.  Whatever the occasion is, this is perfect to show a moment in time or a lifetime.  Slideshows spark so much emotion.  It can be serious and loving or fun and playful!  It can also be ALL...wrapped into one. 

No slideshow is the same, each one is custom tailored for you, with music and custom animations.

I can use photos from a session with me, your digital images and your printed images.  I can scan them to digital files and touch them up, or you can scan them and give them to me.

Don't delay!  Order your slideshow TODAY!

Pierce County Family Photographer

What a fun day!  I met with 2 families today for a photo shoot at Bradley Lake Park.  This was such a great place!  Thank God that it was a nice day, I really started to worry after the horrible rain yesterday.  The photos turned out great, haven't had a chance to do any post processing yet, but will be starting that in the morning.  I am so excited, and wish I could post photos for everybody to check out.  Since these are for Christmas, I have to wait until the end of December!  Check back for posts.

Sunrise in the Lake Tapps area!

So my husband woke me from a dead sleep and said "Honey I know you don't like taking pictures of the sky, but you've gotta come see the sunrise and the clouds!" (don't get me wrong, I do like taking pictures of the sky if they are cool, but sometimes they all start looking the same) So I appease him, and my groggy self gets out of bed and grabs the camera and stumbles outside. I was shocked...WOW, this really was beautiful. I don't even think the pictures grab the true beauty, but here is a couple! I really love the view from my front door.

Danielle ~ White River Senior Photo Shoot

I had lots of fun yesterday shooting my neighbor Danielle's Senior Photos! When I woke up, the weather was beautiful, and as the day progressed it got worse. I prayed it held out until after our shoot. Especially since Danielle cleaned her horses just for the shoot. I had to wait til 3 when she got home from school. As I saw the overcast I thought 'this is PERFECT' as long as it doesn't rain. When she was ready, she called and I walked down to her house. Lots of fun with her horses and dogs who didn't want to cooperate like she did! I said that's what it's all about, capturing the moments as they are...dogs rolling around and all. Just after the shoot, I walked home...and within 20 minutes it POURED! Thank you God for listening to my request. :)

I had some fun in photoshop with this one... It just seemed fitting.

Here is a few sneak peeks...

Do the Puyallup ~ Washington Photographer

My family took a trip to the fair last week. We always go on a weekday so we can get the dizzy passes for the rides. It has become a tradition that my husband and I go during the day to look around at the exhibits. When the kids get out of school, we come home and get them and go back to get our Dizzy passes and ride the rides for the rest of the evening. Of course we have to get all the classic fair food... Krusty Pup corn dogs, corn on the cob, elephant ears and of course scones! I didn't have alot of time for picture taking, because we were having so much fun on the rides...but here are a few.

Maternity Photo Sessions ~ Lake Tapps Maternity Photographer

Are you expecting, or do you you know someone else who is? Don't let this important time in life slip away without capturing the precious moment! Pregnancy is beautiful, and it should be documented as the start of the baby's life. I have designed several packages to document from your Beautiful Belly all the way to the Bassinett and beyond. Check out my website at http://kristieayers.com/maternityandbaby.htm to see all the new options available to you. I think I covered it all, but if for some reason you don't find what you're looking for, let me know and I can custom design a package just for you. Maternity Photographer serving Lake Tapps and surrounding King County and Pierce County communities. Reserve your session today!
