BACK TO THE BLOG BASICS

Okay, so life has been a little crazy lately. Not that there is really any excuse for my pathetic lack of blogging! There are all kinds of sessions and updates to post, and so I have decided to recommit to the blog! :)

I am excited for everyone to see the new images I’ve been shooting and all the fun sessions we’ve had. Also, tons of crazy adventures from WPPI - Vegas Baby! There are some new items that can be checked off of the 101 in 1001 list. And last but not at all least, studio updates. We are almost completely booked up for wedding coverage in 2009…very exciting!

So get ready for some great new posts, and thanks for the friendly reminders to get back to the blog!

#39 - CHECK!

I joined Twitter!

So I can now check this off of my things to do, having successfully completed #39 of my 101 in 1001. However, with that said…I really have no idea what I am actually DOING on Twitter yet. Any help y’all want to throw my way - feel free!

You can find me and follow me on Twitter by going to my profile: @ameliastrauss.

See you there tweeps!

The newlyweds tied the knot on January 17, 2009 at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Birmingham, Alabama. The gorgeous ceremony was followed by a great reception at Red Mountain Church in the Lakeview District.

TRASH THE TUTU

Okay, I love this shoot!

Ashley, our amazing ballerina, was all about some urban fashion..and this was one of the most fun afternoons I’ve had in a while. The images are all across the board, and I think that brings some really cool elements into the post-production. Check out Jamie Burnett’s blog for some killer images! Scroll on down for a variety of faves from the day…

Yea for Trash The Tutu!
