Out of Town… and Almost Back!

I attended the WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International) Convention in Las Vegas this week! I go mainly to soak in all the information and knowledge that is offered through their classes. I figure if I take away one thing that makes my photography or my business or me better, then it would all have been worth it.

So, we return from Las Vegas tomorrow with a little more knowledge and $2.50 in slot machine winnings.

Here is a random photograph of my son I took last week. I probably have mommy goggles on – but isn’t he the cutest thing!

Happy Halloween…!

Do or do not. There is no try.

Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you?

When 900 years you reach, look as good, you will not.

What An Entrance!

I found this from Digg:

Welcome Leland Miles!

Our baby boy was born on April 17, 2009 weighing 9 lbs, 6 oz after 45 hours of labor! I have to say parenthood is not easy! My husband and I have been peed and pooped on and are sleep deprived ~ but it’s been totally worth it!

I am still fully booked for 2009 and am holding off on booking for 2010 until we get settled in a bit. I apologize if I have not returned any e-mails for the time being ~ we’ve had our hands full!

May 4, 2009 - 1:28 am Gina - OHHHHHHH!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! Congratulations on your wonderful blessing, I'm so happy for you both! You are so right, it IS absolutely worth it. Hope to see your little one sometime :)

Update and 2010

I’m 32 weeks pregnant! and things are going really well. My husband and I are preparing for the baby – just 8 more weeks to go!

Please note that I am fully booked for 2009 and temporarily will not be taking any weddings in 2010. Please let me know if you have any questions! zenia@zeniaphotography.com :)

Updates!

My husband and I will be going out of town for the Thanksgiving holiday but once we are back, my “pregnancy vacation” is over and it’s back to business!

I’ll be revamping my website & portfolio and including a calendar of my availability.

On a personal note, we are having a baby BOY in April!!!

Please let me know if you have any questions! I will be able to get back to any inquiries after Thanksgiving. Yay! zenia@zeniaphotography.com

We’re Expecting!

My husband and I are thrilled to announce that we will be expecting our first child in April 2009! So far, I’ve had a good share of morning (and night) sickness but thankfully things are easing up!

Although I will re-open my bookings in December 2008, I currently only have availability from July 2009 – September 2009. Please feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions! zenia@zeniaphotography.com

2008 Brings New Changes to Zenia Photography!

I just finished my first full year of photographing weddings and I have had such a great time doing it! I’ve been very lucky to have truly amazing clients and even luckier to have had the opportunity to photograph their weddings.

2007 has allowed me to develop my creative style as an artist and has allowed me to grow my business. With that said, I’ve been working hard on a new website with a look that reflected who I am as a photographer: clean, modern, and elegant.

I’ve already photographed my first two weddings of the year (congratulations to Peggy & Jimmy and Tobie & Aaron!) and I can’t wait to experience the rest of 2008!

If anyone has any questions, comments, etc. please send me an e-mail at zenia@zeniaphotography.com or leave a comment below!

January 19, 2008 - 2:32 pm Lu - wow zenia! It's so great to see how you developped from when i first met you in April '07 to now. I'm so happy about all the great changes in your life! I've always recommended you to my friends..

January 20, 2008 - 7:51 pm Kim - Zenia - your new website looks great. So fresh, clean and absolutely wonderful. I can't wait to see what else you may have in store for 2008.

February 10, 2008 - 4:08 pm Leah E - Hi Zenia - The website looks great. Your work just keeps getting more and more amazing. I can't wait for you to photograph our wedding in June!

February 11, 2008 - 4:43 am Hannah - The site look amazing, Zenia!
