Swan Harbor Wedding - Havre De Grace, MD

shelbyleigh — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 14:31:34 +0000

I’ve been such a slacker blogger lately! I am totally going to push myself to blog more over the next couple months (maybe I’ll try to blog everyday for 30 days, for my 101 in 1001 goal!). I have a wedding or session every weekend from this weekend until 10/16 so I know I’ll have tons to blog about!

I had the pleasure to work for my good friend and fellow photographer Kimberly Brooke a couple weeks ago, we shot a wedding at Swan Harbor in Havre De Grace and I was the second photographer. I enjoy being a second photographer from time to time, not just because its much less stressful! But because I get to flex my creative muscle a little bit.

As a second photographer, I got to stand and wait with the bride and her father before walking down the aisle to capture this emotional moment

the bag piper was a unique part of the ceremony

Megan + Jeff - The Beach - MD Engagement Photographer

This is one of my favorite engagement sessions! We started in town before heading to the beach, they were all about having fun for their session, the light was perfect and it was my ideal shoot all around (minus the 100% humidity). Megan is one of the owners of Shop Mamie the “cheap and chic clothing boutique for women” (check out their blog www.stylememamie.com, and Jeff is a hockey player! Such a cool, fun, in love couple!

Marathon Sessions Are Here! September 4th! - Annapolis, MD Family Portrait Photography

shelbyleigh — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 20:58:22 +0000

Sometimes you aren’t looking for a full blown photo shoot and thats why Marathon Sessions are so great! I havent held one one a while and I don’t know when the next one will be so you might want to jump on this opportunity. And remember how I said it would be perfect for your holiday portraits, yes, I still mean that! By the time September rolls around it will have cooled off (if even a little bit), you can wear almost anything you want and you’ll have ample time to order any cards or products you want for the Holidays.

So what is a Marathon Session?

Fun mini 30 minute sessions that are great for…

Families, kids and wee ones
Maternity
Senior Portraits
Engagements
Trash the Dress
Just because!

The session is for up to a group of 5 (additional persons are subject to a $20 fee). Your final images will be available on a private password protected gallery for you to view and order what you want within a week. The best part is its only $99 for a slot! Plus I will have great pre-order sales such as…

Digital File Pack (10 of your favorite images) $199 (reg. $500)
8 x 8 20 page Art Book $280 (reg. $350)
Holiday Cards - pack of 25 $30 (reg. $50)

Slots are limited, if you’d like to book email shelby@shelbyleigh.com

oh and look forward to a fun boudoir post next week :o)
