What a cool week, last week! We have been working with the Hilton Garden Inn - Tampa Southeast getting some images done for them to use in advertising. Last week we worked with models and photographed them as brides and young women preparing for their quinceañeras. The facility is beautiful and makes a gorgeous backdrop for events. Here are two of the images from that session.
This past weekend the Riverview Chamber had a business expo called Summer Fest at the Hilton and had over 1000 people attending and participating. It was a great event and it was fun seeing all our friends and meeting new ones. It was free to the public and gave them an opportunity to taste a lot of good food and to meet members of the business community. You must be sure and attend next year.
You really do need to drop by the Hilton and check it out. They have a restaurant and often have events for the community. In fact, July 3, this Friday, they are having a Jazz Night starting at 6 pm with live entertainment.
We've been blogging now for about a year and most of the time it is silent iout there. Is anyone reading us? Following what we do? We're challenging you to respond and let us hear your voice. Let us know what you're thinking and what you would like to see on the blog. We've been thinking of putting some of the articles from the newslettersgiving tips on amateur photography. Would this be something you'd like to see again or for the first time, if you don't our newsletters.
How can you get the most from your Senior Session at Huth & Booth? We allow an hour for each senior session and 4 changes of clothing. From that you will have so many images to choose from, how do you display them all? We have a new product we are offering in two sizes and three finishes. It is a composite of 6 images printed together. They can be either a 16 inch or 20 inch square, and can be done on photographic paper or canvas. They can be framed with frames or can be made into an image wrap. This product along with the new SPLASH gives you the opportunity to choose a number of images from your session and show your different personalities and looks. Here is one we created for Morgan whose SPLASH you saw a few posts back.
After making a SPLASH for our Senior market we found parents wanting to try something like ot for their toddlers. So when Pam Brown brought in her grand-daughter we decided to try one with Brianna. She loves to dance and we had a great time "playing" with her and capturing fun images of her dancing to John Denver - her grandpa's favorite.

What do you think? Did we capture her personality? We think so.
Wow! Looks like we are in the Calendar business. Besides doing a 2010 Version of the Breast Cancer Survivor Calendar which will benefit the American Cancer Society, we will be doing another Bachelor Calendar which will benefit the Hillsborough Humane Society. There may even be another calendar on the horizon. We're inckuding here two images from our past calendars. Just a reminder of the incredible people we worked with the last times.
The first is Peggy Sherry - our August from the Breast Cancer Survivor Calendar.
The second is Dave Liehr - our June in the Bachelors of Sun City Center.
With our continued watch on the economy, we have noticed things are not snapping back as quiuckly as we all had hoped. In talking with many of you, we have heard you express how much your family means to you and how the family values are more important than ever to all of you. Too, many of you have told us how you want to have your family portrait made, to capture your family at this time in their life, but that you just don't have the funds or that it is just a little more than you can afford at this time.
We have heard you and have decided to roll our prices back to what they were in 1985. This is a 50% reduction on our current prices. We are doing this for the months of June and July and hope you will take advantage of our lower prices to have your families photographed. The kids are out of school, the older ones are home from college. Now is a perfect time to get those images done, you can even use them later this winter for gifts for the family. You know, portraits are the one gift no one returns or re-gifts.
Recently, we photographed Dr Sage Campione and her dog, Cara Mia. She is going to use the images on her website and for advertising purposes, but they would make great gifts for her family as well. We wanted to share them with you.
Sorry I haven't been here for a few weeks. I had to make a trip to West Virginia with my daughter to attend a funeral and we were gone from Mother's Day until last weekend. Hope all is well with everyone. I am working on the May Newsletter and coming up with some neat "stuff". If you don't receive the newsletter, go to the E-Newsletter page just above and you can read the archived ones there. We have tried to keep them informational to help you with your own photography.
