Announcing Finding Focus Photography by Kenna Skinner

Hello to all of my loyal blog followers! I know I have been abscent from the blog for quite sometime now, but I have a very good reason, and I am finally ready to share it with you all!

Drum roll please…

Introducing

www.findingfocusphotography.com

It brings me great joy and pleasure to FINALLY introduce my new professional photography website. It has been a very long road, but I am very happy with the results and look forward to what the future holds! The website is a great way to showcase all of my work, provide lots of detailed information and answer most of your questions! Please take some time to look it over and let me know your thoughts, both good and bad! The site will be a constant work in progress with additional pictures being added regularly, and I will also be adding additional sections for products and testimonials...and yes, at some point there will be a separate photography blog!

This site would not have been possible without the love and support of my family and friends! I would like to first start off by thanking my sweet husband and number one supporter for putting up with all of the very late nights and long hours! Since I work full-time all of this had to happen late at night after the girls are in bed, and needless to say we have been staying up much later than normal! Second, I would like to thank my Mom for being my second biggest supporter. She has offered so many words of encouraging advice along the way and is my #1 proofreader! Third, I would like to thank Jennifer Perdaris, who designed my beautiful logo and has helped provide constant feedback on the “look” of Finding Focus Photography. The “brand” was so important to me, and Jennifer was right there to help me every step of the way! Finally, I would like to thank all of my wonderful friends for their constant kind words and never-ending support…to Lisa for being my biggest fan/loyal client and another creative eye, to Kristi for helping me track down the music for my website, to Jen Hague for being such a loyal friend who also shares my passion for photography, and to Amy who is the best neighbor and support system a girl could ever ask for! I thank you all dearly and dedicate the website to you!

With the launch of the site I am offering two specials that I wanted you all to know about:

1) Referral Special: If you refer someone to my website and they book a session you will receive a $50 credit towards any session or product. There is no limit to the referral special, so please feel free to spread the word.

2) Booking Special: The first five people who book a session to take place no later than June 1, 2010, will receive 50% off their session fee (applies to option #1 on the “investment” page) and 50% off their prints (applies to option #1 and #2 on the “investment” page). This way if you are referring people to the site you will have a special offer to give them as well!

I will be sending out a larger announcement via e-mail after the first of the year when everything has died down a bit for everyone!

I have no idea where this road is heading, but I am looking forward to what 2010 has in store and am so thankful to have you all by my side!

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

XOXO

Kelly, Kyle and Evie Sneak Peek

This past weekend I had the pleasure of photographing my wonderful friend Kelly and her lovely family who are anxiously awaiting the arrival of baby girl #2...Allie!! Allie is due in a few weeks, but you would never know that by looking at Kelly! Don't we all wish we could look this great when we are pregnant!

We started off with some family shots on the bridge! So cute!
This is Evie! She is going to be the BEST big sister! Doesn't she have the most beautiful light brown eyes you have ever seen! I wonder what color eyes her sister will have?
I couldn't decide if I liked this one better in color or B&W?
Another BEAUTIFUL shot of Evie!
This picture makes me so anxious to meet baby Allie because I just know when she gets here their family will be complete! As the mom of two girls I just know they are going to have a blast watching them grow up as sisters!
The beautiful mama to be!

I love this one of Kelly and Kyle!
And this one too...I just love the connection between them!
These next 2 are my absolute favorites of Kelly!
This is my #1 favorite...I think she looks just stunning and so happy!
A beautiful belly portrait!
Okay, maybe this one is my favorite of Kelly and Kyle...I just can't decide!
Surrounding baby Allie with LOVE!
And a little creativity to end on!!
Kelly and Kyle, thank you so much for allowing me to capture this special time in your lives!! It was an absolute pleasure, and I can't wait to meet that sweet baby girl!!

Until next time,
XOXO

Lisa & Scott Maternity Sneak Peek

Well, this isn't really a sneak peek since Lisa and Scott got to preview ALL of their pictures a few hours ago, but I still wanted to post a few for everyone else to see!

Back in late May I had the honor of photographing my really good friend of over 9 years, Lisa, and her husband Scott. Lisa and I met at our first "real" jobs out of college and have remained great friends ever since! All of Lisa and Scott's friends have been patiently waiting for them to become parents, and finally (about nine months ago) they surprised us all with the GREAT news!  Now we are all anxiously awaiting the arrival of baby Karsten later this month!  I cannot wait to meet the sweet little guy and give him lots of love!!  Lisa and Scott are going to be the best parents!  

Lisa and Scott, thank you for letting me take your maternity photos.  Lisa, you look sooooo beautiful!!  I hope these become special memories of this very special time in you lives!  I am sorry it took me so long to get them to you!!    

The proud parents to be!

Lisa looking absolutely FABULOUS!!

Sharing a sweet moment!







Baby Karsten, we can't wait to meet you!   It won't be long now!!!!
