A landscape photographer I am not! Photography is a craft that requires a lot of subject specific knowledge. Sure I know how to operate my camera enough to get decent landscapes but to really capture the “wow” beauty of Alaska often escapes me. I usually look at my landscape photos and wonder why I can’t seem to convey a sense of scale in them. Alaska’s mountains are HUGE and I usually don’t convey that well in my own landscape photography. So like everything else in life photography does indeed have it’s specialties and not every photographer is suited for every job. But that being said every once in a while I get lucky and yesterday was one of those days. A fresh snow had fallen and as I was driving home from dropping off my girls at school I could see that the Eagle River peaks clear as day. I grabbed my gear, my snow boots, and my mom who is always up for an adventure and we drove 13 miles back into the mountains in hopes of getting that one amazing landscape shot that eludes me for my livingroom wall. The sun was just rising over the mountains, and there wasn’t a cloud in sight, so it was also a great time to practice getting good sun flares, which I love!!! I think one of these might make the cut to be printed and hung on our wall.
Of course it is nothing compared to photographers who specialize in landscapes but I think it does capture a bit of the beauty of Eagle River Alaska the morning after the first snowfall.

It is official, the holidays are upon us. I can feel it in our crisp air and I can feel it in the excitement of people coming in for holiday portraits. I dusted off some of my treasured holiday items to use in upcoming sessions and this little guy was the first to try out the sleigh this year. His hat inspired us to give it a try and he could not look more picture perfect!

The cutest sock monkey ever! This little guy came with his own wardrobe trunk but this outfit is my favorite of the bunch by far. There is something whimsical and classic about a sock monkey and when he smiles back at you it could not be any sweeter.

I must say there is nothing I love more about photography than capturing the vibrant spirit of children! Images like these really touch my heart and I believe truly represent what photography is all about. While properly posed images certainly have their place in my work, being able to show some of the child’s spunk is what I’m all about.

My new holiday cards are finally ready to release! After many hours of design I have approximately 20 cards for you to select from for this holiday season. Fresh designs each season guarantee that you won’t be sending the same card your friends did last year.
The cards are press printed and are really stunning! They are available in a linen, gloss or pearl finish. Because the 5×7 size was so popular last year all of my designs, and prices, are for the larger 5×7 card with envelopes. Below are the details and a sample of the 2009 designs. To view all of the cards available visit my website and click on “current clients”. Enter “cards” into the password box and it will open up the gallery of designs.
Ordering the cards is easy! All you need to do is select a card design, select the appropriate number of images from ANY 2009 session with ISG Photography to be inserted. Then you can also select a full size 5×7 image to be placed on the inside upper, or left-hand, flap and a personalized message for the body of the card if you would like. All cards must be ordered by November 20th!
