Commercial Photography for St. Petersburg businesses

Recently I've done some photography for a couple of different businesses that are located here in St. Petersburg and I wanted to take a moment to let you know about them.

First up, RDesign ! If you need help with website development, logo & corporate identity or graphic design and marketing then you should definitely give them a call. Here you will meet Raffi and Brain Darrow and Kelly, the design daredevil, and they will work to exceed your expectations and give your business the results you're looking for!



Next is Anywhere Electronic Cigarettes ! Please go to their website for more information, but here are a few Benefits:

* Electronic cigarettes do not produce second-hand smoke and should be allowed under most smoking bans.
* The device has no flame, no tobacco and no known carcinogenic ingredients.
* Our cigarettes come in two parts, the longest part contains micro electronic technology and a rechargeable battery and the shorter part is the flavored cartridge.
* Each cigarette cartridge is the equivalent of 20 cigarettes.
* The tip of the cigarette lights up as you inhale.
* Simulated smoke is emitted as you exhale. This is only vapor and evaporates in seconds.
* A full charge will last for approximately one day.
* Suitable for smokers of legal smoking age(at least 18 years).
* Not suitable for pregnant or breast feeding women.

Pet Portraits: Pasadena Pet Motel comes to the studio!

Kristen of the Pasadena Pet Motel and I are in the process of creating new Wall Art for the walls of the Grooming Room and Front Lobby of the PPM and of course we're using images of 'fur kids'. She brought her kids in last week, Panda the greyhound and Nemo the white Shepard. On the same day she also brought Barron her daughter's dog. She had asked me do a session with Barron for her daughter who is heading off to college and adores her dog. I had so much fun, they are loveable pups and it was such a joy to have them in the studio! Lot's of kisses and you know how I love those kisses!!

Panda

Barron

It didn't take too long before they all took a rest together:-)

Just turned ONE : Portrait Session St. Petersburg, FL

This little ball of cuteness recently had a birthday! The moment he came in, with mommy Melissa, he reminded me of my son Gavin at this age. Stocky and Strong and trying so hard to walk, but still stumbling and tumbling too! Good thing for diapers or those little bottoms would be so sore. I loved photographing this little man and his mommy. Thank you so much for your visit!

Baby Boy and Big Brother Portraits: St. Petersburg, FL

This little guy is the new addition to the Hammil family and the big guy is his older brother. I met their mommy through some work with the Alpha House I did last fall. Patrice, thank you so much for having me over, your boys are so adorable. See you soon!

Pet Portrait Event: One Lucky Dog St. Petersburg

This past weekend was the Pet Portrait Event at One Lucky Dog on 4th Street in St. Pete. Oh My! Twenty dogs in two days. Lots of sloppy wet kisses and lot's of dog treats. I got my bark on and have being doing the doggie shuffle for several days now getting these images ready for the moms and pops of all these 'fur kids'. Loved every minute and I'm already looking forward to our 'Tails of Summer' Event at the studio. This will take place on August 1st and 2nd and the discounted session fee of $49 will be donated to the Pet Pal Animal Shelter. More information is coming very soon!!

For now, Meet Maxine! She's one of the more unique 'fur kids' I photographed. She's a hairless Chinese Crested. You should see her in her tutu:-)
