"We don't remember the days..we remember the moments"
I was just talking with a good friend recently and we chatted about our children, raising them and seeing them off to college and now we are empty-nesters! So where did the time go?? We met almost 30 years ago and embraced each other's journey through the good times, the bad times and the ugly times. We saw it all; we cried together, we laughed until our sides ached and we stood by each other through it all. And, these moments are created in our portraiture!
For gifts this year, I presented a slide show (a funny one for each of my boys) and a beautiful slideshow for our daughter from the time of her birth to her graduation. And, you know what? That's what they remember most about this Christmas. Photographs bring us back to the moment we created, it can pull us back into time, make us laugh, make us cry and overwhelm us with joy because we have something tangible that goes along with our memory. Photographs are very powerful and a way to continue our heritage throughout the years!
Did you know that if you have a beautiful wall portrait of your family, it reinforces your children's sense of self and family? Think about it...friends and family come to our house, comment on the portrait and how beautiful your children are, etc. So, what do you think this means to your child who hears this? It tells your child that he/she is a valued member of your family and that this is their soft place to fall. They grow up with a strong sense of self, a strong sense of family and in turn they create the same environment for their own family.
Family portraits are very valuable and that is why VISUAL CONCEPTS continues to strive to create professional family portraiture and top notch customer service to create your memories to last a lifetime. Take us along your life's journey..from a new birth, to a senior grad, to a family session before your grad goes off to college, to an engagement session and sometimes a photo session.."just for fun!" Remember..it is all about creating the memories to last a lifetime and beyond...

I had the pleasure of photographing McKenzie, a high school senior and we took advantage of the many gardens and the pond the Rennaisance Man created for me, as well as borrowing my neighbor's barn for some great shots!

I photographed two beautiful seniors last night, just before sunset, in our gardens and near our pond. Here are some images. Both girls are very different, but I was able to catch their unique, beautiful styles! Both girls are stunning and the camera loved them!
