Mentoring/ coaching is for you, if…

  • You daydream about more professional-looking images from your DSLR camera, but just can’t figure it out.
  • You are beginning a career in photography and you want to bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be with your business.
  • You have invested in Adobe Photoshop Elements or higher and haven’t a clue where to start.
  • If this is your choice, you are entering for a 2 hour limit coaching session via phone or video.

A photo session is for you, if…

  • You would love professional images taken of you with quality time spent on the session… before, during, and afterwards with custom, digi-fabulous images as proof! (Nothing against them, but in comparison to the quick, ‘sit and say cheese; here’s your images’ sessions)
  • If this is your choice, you are entering for a 2 hour limit, outdoor location within a 50 mile radius of Lexington, SC 29072; 4 subject maximum ($25 for each additional subject) session. There is a $50 fee to reserve your date on my calendar; however, that fee will be credited back to you as a part of your print order. Prints sold separately.
{Offer must be redeemed within the year 2011, as 2010 is completely booked}

    I would love to win a session with you because your pictures are not only beautiful they also tell a story and when you look at them you get a sense of feeling of what is happening in the pictures such as love, pride, and joy! Keep up the fantastic work girl!

    Love, Krystal

    I have always been interested in photography, within the last year my urge to take photographs has really grown. There are so many things to learn about photography and more less its a gift that takes a lot of artistic yet original and unique talent. I feel that you are born with talent it isn't necessarily something that you can learn from someone else, its just something naturally in you that seems to come alive when photographing.

    Your pictures are really awesome and who wouldn't want to not only learn from a very talented photographer but also be able to make my very own pictures look totally awesome and come alive all at the same time. My dream is to have a successful photography business one day. With a having a 13 month-old now, it sure would be an awesome career to have, to spend more time with my family and to do something I really LOVE. Kids are my passion and by far they are my favorite to photograph (as you can see by my Facebook albums) 🙂

    Just by looking at your photographs, without even knowing the individuals you can tell exactly what is going on in the picture itself. I know you definitely would inspire me to do so much more with my work, your photographs speak for themselves and I want to have the confidence to produce great pictures as well. I look forward to learning many great things from you 🙂 ~Heather~

    Finally, just to hit the 4th way to enter and endanger myself for being flagged as spam on your blog… I would love to have some one on one time with you so that I could improve my photography. I am excited about possibly starting to do pet photography (and what ever else that leads to) and would love some tips/hints/and mostly advice from a friend and fantastic photog.

    Why wouldn't I would want to win? I am JSO and have been since last December. I am a stay at home mom whose children grew up and left her for an education. I have a dream, and I am chasing it. I want to provide people with beautiful memories of their life. I want to help them to see how they have had happy times when life gets tough (there are always tough times)~~happy times will return. I would love some direction from someone who has a successful business and seems to have a style comparable to where I am headed.

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 4 🍉🌻
 
Two of my fellow Clemson forestry/ wildlife pals and I managed to take that girls’ trip we had been chatting about for a while! It was so good for the soul!!! We went owling at night, and just looking for all the critters we could find. 😁

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 3 🍉🌻
 
Our old-soul, mancub hit a milestone birthday this summer. So, as an early birthday present, we hesitantly (😅) decided to take him and a friend to a Hank Jr. concert, since they are both big fans. Our thought process: “Hank Jr. is old now… sure his music is timeless, but it’s bound to draw an older, more calm crowd nowadays.” NOPE. 😆🥴 

The trip morphed into a group trip with the friend’s parents and sister, and my dad joined us, too! All was well until a thunderstorm sent everyone to the concessions area where we were packed in like sardines for TWO HOURS to avoid the lightening and rain best we could. 😳 Well, you can only imagine most people there had only one thing to do during the two hour wait, so that by the time we could return to our seats, it was quite the scene. 🙈 Our sweet, sheltered homeschooled children were awakened to some of the ways of the world that night, for sure. 🤣🥴 Gracious!!! 

But alas, Hank came out on stage and was GREAT, even still as an older man in his 70’s. He played alllll the instruments, and even still could throw his leg up on the piano! 🤣😳

The boys ended their first year of fishing for PAC last April in 10th place; which was amazing for them! They overcame many obstacles and learned to fish better as partners. This particular tournament happened to fall on Jason’s birthday (he’s their boat captain), so our friends camping close-by helped him celebrate. 🤣😁

🌻🍉 Summer Photo Dump 1 🍉🌻
(We enjoyed it to the fullest and it FLEW by; so, slowing down to make posts didn’t happen. I don’t even know how it’s almost September. 🥴)

In April, we ventured to Beaufort with my family to see the Blue Angels in action. 🤩 They were awesome to see in person!

Anytime we vacation, you can bet fishing and/or hunting will always be interspersed. 🤪 So, it’s a good thing I enjoy just being outdoors, walking creek and river banks, and taking pictures. But there *was* one said adventure where I thought for sure I was going to end up nose-to-nose with a grizzly, mountain lion, or moose. 😅 And it was cold and raining. lol 🫠 But we made the most of it! 

We also spent some time playing on one of the nearby lakes. We all even braved the cold water! 🥶🤣

We checked out one of the waterfowl viewing areas and grabbed pizza at our favorite little roadside restaurant where the kiddos love to play pool and Pac-Man. 🤣

Our next Montana adventure was a beautiful hike! Can’t go to Montana without putting in some steps. 😁 And it’s always the best when the hike includes amazing views along the way. It’s no big deal to pass people hiking and everyone has pistols strapped to their chests. Just an observation- which I don’t mind one bit. After all, we were in grizzly/ mountain lion/ moose country.  You can see on the wilderness sign that grizzlies have clawed it and bitten chunks out of it. 😅 I learned that the huge rock fields we passed attract grizzlies, where they source a certain type of moth for nutrition. They can be heard at times, flipping boulders in search of those moths. 

We also had our little sidekick Pippa along on the adventure, too! We fell in love with that little doggo while there. 🥰 And found an awesome patch of huckleberries rambling around on the national forest. They are SO. GOOD! So very thankful for the Cole family adventuring with us!
