Now Booking Fall Portrait Sessions https://www.eschwartzphoto.com/blog/2015/10/family

Let’s talk family photos… Why? Well… Why not? Family portraits are a great way to document your family’s growth, to show pride in your loved ones, and of course as a means of remembrance. I mention this because I came across a box that contained family photos from when I was a kid growing up.

 

 

There were photos of my folks and grand parents; from trips we had taken as a family to school functions, even found some prom photos (Got to love the styles of the late 70s to mid 80s… sheesh I needed a haircut). I guess the point is that as I sorted through the photos, with my kids chuckling about how different (read as: geeky) I looked back then, I came to realize that I needed more images of my family. My children are growing up fast and I need to make the time to take more images of them so that someday, I can send them boxes of photos of themselves so they can realize what great, goofy kids they were growing up and to have their own children chuckle at them.

Family photos are more than just capturing the aesthetics of each family member. It is about capturing the essence of what it is to be family. With the holiday season and time for families to come together right around the corner, I am offering family portrait sessions now through November 22, 2015 at special price of $100.

It’s all about family so, we’ll do them your way – from the traditional posed to fun or even kitschy portraits. Each 1-hour session includes one location within the Reno/Sparks/Tahoe area, an online gallery of 10 edited digital images, and a matted 8x10 of your choice of one of the final edited images suitable for framing. Additional print sizes and photographic products are available for purchase through your gallery. Space is limited, so book your session today!

Amanda and Elika - Maternity https://www.eschwartzphoto.com/blog/2015/6/amanda-and-elika---maternity I have never been a big fan of shooting maternity photos, but when a couple I have known for some time asked, I couldn’t have been more honored to take the assignment. They are due any day now. When this little one makes its début, it will have the two of the greatest mom’s a newborn could have.

Congratulations Amanda and Elika and welcome little...

Sorry, you're going to have to check back. I promised not to let the name out.

Ellie & Ben - The Album https://www.eschwartzphoto.com/blog/2015/3/ellie-and-ben---the-album Had the pleasure of delivering Ellie and Ben's  wedding album this week. At first I was a bit apprehensive. It was the first time I was working with the vendor I chose to print and bind the album. I must say I was very pleased with the finished product. She and Ben were too.

As I begin to establish my brand, I came to the realization that I want my album to be a reflection of my work and attention to detail. Which is why I chose Millers Professional Imaging as my album vendor. Their experience in the business, quality, and strong customer support only enhance my work.  I offer three sizes of albums, 10x10, 8x12, and a 5x5 parents album. All offer 15 pages or 30 sides and include 60-65 images. Although some photographers work with an album designer, I prefer to do the design myself.

Here's a peak inside Ellie and Ben's album.

You found us! https://www.eschwartzphoto.com/blog/2015/2/you-found-us It has been quite a journey getting here. I am glad you chose to come along. It seems strange that the things we do in life for fun become more than that over time. I had never really thought about making photography a second or even a new career but when I look back over the years, the writing was always on the wall.

I shot my first wedding at thirteen. I was not the hired help, but a guest at a family wedding. The camera was my first SLR, a Konica FS-1 with a 50mm f1.8 lens in full manual mode. You see that was when you really had think things through. There were no digital cameras that provided instant feedback, only canister upon canister of Kodachrome that only provided feedback once they were processed days later.

After that, I never stopped shooting. Throughout high school, seldom were there photos of me without a camera in my hand. Nevertheless, it was not until my oldest entered high school that I started to take my photography to the next level. From high school sports to prom photos, to senior portraits for my daughter and her friends, I continued to hone my craft.

Now some thirty years after that first wedding, I finally got off my tuchas (for those whose Yiddish is rusty -- my buttocks, my derriere, etc.) and started down the path of formalizing what I have done for enjoyment for so many years.  Credit, however, must be given to my wife and family for this because, without their support, and my wife’s second shooting from time to time and her occasional swift kick in the, yep, tuchas, this would not have come to fruition.  I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.  Thanks for coming along. You may want to strap in, it’s going to be a fantastic ride.

Oh… To make it official… We’re open and booking events for 2015.

-Evan
