Spencer was one of the last seniors of 2013 to call us. We booked him for Sunday morning. I was hoping that the sun wasn’t too bright, reflecting off the snow. We ended up with fog instead. Lots of fog, which made for a more dramatic image.
We also snuck inside for a few shots…
We have been wanting to do another water shoot all year. After our heat wave towards the end of May, we decided that maybe the water was warm enough to try it. Now, to find a victim. Oops! I mean model! Emily was all into it, and even went shopping for some new dresses. I decided that I wanted this one to be an early morning shoot. I am NOT a morning person, but I knew it would be worth it for the lighting that we’d get. But, at 5am Emily was at the door and we were off!
We got to the lake and the lighting was just as we thought it would be; nice cool blue tones. Just as we got to the water a snake slithered by in the water! I have been at that lake my whole life and have never ever seen a water snake. Maybe because I’m not up at 5:30! 
One thing I completely forgot about, was that the water would be high. It always is in the spring. There was no beach like we were planning on. So, we worked with what we had. Emily climbed up on the rock and worked it.
The sun was quickly coming up, and the snake was probably long gone by now, so it was time to get in the water. We did some shooting in the blue dress, then decided to change to the red one. She was starting to get a little more confident, and really started getting into it as she worked the poses.
We had a lone fisherman trolling around in the background. I think he was trying to figure out what the heck was going on! In no time, we were finished and left him to his fish. I think Emily did an awesome job!
It’s so easy for me to upload sessions to facebook, to give a sneak peek, or to upload what has been ordered. It takes more time to do a blog post. I have to write the story that goes along with it. I’m not a writer, so I guess I kind of put it off a little bit. Then I get to the place where I am now. WAY behind!
This is Cathy. She is a senior this year, and was one of the last ones to come in for senior photos. She was a blast to do! Cathy is up for anything! The last image is the one that she chose for the yearbook…SO Cathy!
Its that time of the year again. Graduation time! This year is especially sentimental for me. My oldest is part of the class of 2011, and the end of the year is coming fast.
I recently designed some graduation announcement cards. All of our cards are available in many different shapes, sizes, and paper finishes; which can be seen on our website. If you don’t like what you see in this gallery, we can design something specifically to you.
If you order cards by the end of May, you also receive 10% off a print order. This is a great way to get those extra wallets that you’ve been meaning to re-order!
We are currently looking for 2012 graduates to be our Senior Representatives. We have been using our Senior Rep program to help get our name out there, and it has been working well for us. We have changed our program a little bit this year, and are excited to get it rolling.
What is the Senior Rep Program?
In short, the Senior Reps are our company’s representatives. We use their photos for advertising. We also rely on them to help promote us. In exchange for their hard work, they receive FREE products and discounts on their session.
How Do I Apply?
Simply fill out an application. The application can be found on our website We will review all applications, and choose the people that we feel would best represent our company. We do not accept everyone that applies, so be sure to fill out your application early. Deadline for applying is May 31.
What is Required of Me if I Become a Rep?
We start off with your free photo shoot. This will be done early, to give time to get you your promotional material to hand out. This shoot includes hair and makeup. We have a lot of great locations, and are really working hard to step up our game this year, so be prepared to rock your session! After your session, we will post your images on facebook, and tag you in these images. You share these images on your page with your friends, letting them know how much fun you had on your shoot. The goal is to have all of your friends become a fan of Your Pixel Perfect, and come to us for their senior photos. You must also come back to us for your senior shoot.
How Much Does it Cost?
Becoming a Rep is free! You spread our name and we reward you! Every senior who comes in with one of your Rep Cards will receive free wallets. For the first referral, you will receive ½ off your senior session. For every referral after that, you will receive $50 in print credits towards your prints! Send us just 5 referrals and receive a free Rock the Frock session for you and those 5 friends as a group session! We also throw in some other freebies, t-shirts and other promotional products. At the end of the year, we total up our referrals. The Rep that sent us the most referrals throughout the school year will win their choice of one of 4 prizes; a Kindle, a netbook, a digital camera, or a $200 Visa card.
