New Beginnings- kim curran

Erika has been making a few changes in her life these days. A major one has been changing careers & taking a position in Real Estate with Willis Allen. She contacted me in need of a head shot. We got a few nice options, she's cute so it made my job easier. Which one do you think she picked? Click here to see if you are right.

Downtown with the Caltabellotta Family - kim curran

This was a fun shoot, but then again anytime I get to spend with my friend Jen is fun. We usually do neutral colors & natural locations for her annual family photo session. This year, however, we were inspired by her daughter's outfit. We went a bit more bold with color and chose an urban location. I think I stretched her comfort zone a bit but still maintained her personality. I am loving the images! What do you think, Jen?

Do Photographers Read my Blog? kim curran

Who reads this? I'm guessing my clients take a look when their session is featured. I like to think that some friends and family read occasionally to lend support and to make sure I spell words like occasionally correctly. BUT do photographers read it? I don't know. Maybe. Well just in case you are a photographer (or an artist of some sort) & somehow found yourself here (thank you for stopping by), this is for you.

10 Things Every Creative Person (That’s YOU) Must Learn. Take a look at a blog by Chase Jarvis. There is some good, useful information for you there...keep learning.


Oh, BTW, do you like my new picture up in the header? Isabelle took it:)
