With only one day left of 2011, I began to reflect on the experiences I have had throughout this year. One of the things I wanted to take a moment to do is to share my gratitude with all of my clients, friends and family.
* To my clients: Thank you for allowing me to do what I love and being able to work with you creating and preserving moments. I really appreciate the friendship I have developed with you and the loyalty and respect you have given me. There’s nothing more gratifying to me than reading through the emails you have sent me thus far with so many wonderful comments and appreciation. Many thanks!
* To my family and friends: thank you for believing in my talent and for encouraging me to continue my photographic journey. Special thanks to my husband, David for being so understanding when I am busy and deeply involved with my art and for giving me feedback about my work. I love that I can have someone to give me ideas 24/7. You are the best, David. My little son, Ethan also deserves a a little note of gratitude for keeping me inspired. Motherhood has really been a blessing in my life and I cannot put into words how much joy my son brings me.
In summary, 2011 has been a fantastic year and I am looking forward to my first photo shoot of 2012 that will be coming up already so soon. For now, I wish to everyone a very Happy New Year!
Just as a token of my appreciation, I have free printable 8×10 calendar for clients that have had session with me in 2011. If you want one, just send me an email at info@louisestidham.com or through facebook.com/louisestidhamphotography so that I can get your file ready and emailed. These 2012 calendars are for your personal use and will come ready for you to print featuring images I’ll select from your session, similar to the sample below. You can print it with your own home printer in glossy or heavyweight card stock paper, or take it to your favorite consumer printing lab and request them to print it for you. It is a JPEG file, size 8×10. The last day to request this calendar will be on January 9, 2012.
Again, Happy New Year!
The images featured in the calendar above are from the photo shoot I did for the Jones Family. I absolutely love meeting them and helping them capture these fabulous moments. Here are some of them at a larger size:
