Dudes, I just got my sample coffee table album delivered today. Whoa.

SO awesome!

I was having a hell of a time finding a printing/binding company that fit what I was looking for and I found it. They are called KISS albums and I love them. So simple. That was the problem with other album companies, they had 8 million sizes, then 17 1/2 cover options, then the turnaround time was insane. Basically too many options to confuse. GRRRR!

But KISS albums are just so simple and super. Not too trendy that they will looked dated, but modern enough to be cool. Fantastic printing quality. Nice thick pages. Yummy leather. And in some good colors too! They also come with a fun fabric bag to store the album in. Love it!!

You can upgrade any package from the scrapbook album to the coffee table album, if you choose. Or you can order one straight out if you are already married. They start at $900. Let me know if you interested in one!

I am really excited! I just finished uploading and perfecting my new website. When I got into business back in 2005 I found a guy off of Craigslist who made websites on the cheap. I didn’t have any money at the time so cheap was good. I sure thought it was the cat’s meow back then and it did it’s job, I can’t believe how much EyeSpy has evolved since 2005.

But now it’s 2008 and I had really outgrown the old website in those 3 years. So, if you go to eyespy-photo.com you will see a new, funky site with some new photos and some bright and happy colors. My favorite “eyespy orange” is kind of on a break, but I picked other yummy citrus colors.

Let me know what you think! Should I go back to “eyespy orange” or is the new color scheme refreshing?

Holy Cats. I am bushed. I finished shooting my last mini session a few hours ago and just looked thru everything to find some sweet images for the old blog. Everything went off just swimmingly, only a few cranky moments out of the whole day. I probably had some of the cutest kids at the house that you have ever seen. Want proof? Check it:

This is Natalie. She is 6 months old. I shot her mommy and daddy’s wedding back in 2006. She is so sweet and nice, she totally cried when she saw me for the first time. But by the end of the shoot, we were buddies.

Here is Amelie, aka “A”. She is so chatty and silly. She loves everyone. Especially Luca.

Ella is 4 and loves yoga and dance. This little chick is so flexible! And look at those eyes.

Here is my lovely little friend, Declyn. I have known her since she was a tiny bean baby. Now look at her, a tiny sassy pants.

Allison is just 2 weeks younger than Luca and she is so petite. She came with her big sister Ashley, who loves her very much. She is the best big sister ever. Alot nicer to her sister than I was to mine… >:)

Here is darling little Ava. She just learned how to crawl recently and very good at it. Plus she had such cute dresses, I wanted to steal them. But I would have no use for them since Luca doesn’t wear dresses. He likes camo.

Tyler came over for some photos but he couldn’t be bothered. He wanted to run around outside with the dogs. So this is the only photos I got of him. Seriously. He was mad. This was snapped right before he ran away. It is pretty funny though.

I wanted Luca to get his picture taken, because you know, I never take his picture, but he was kinda crabbing out Tyler-style. Atleast he is kind of smiling… He is my little badass.

So I haven’t done much shooting lately. My first mini session is this weekend and I am busy with little details that will make for some lov-a-lee photos. I have been in and out of the office for the past week trying to get everything in order. All while Luca is napping…riiiight!

Over the winter while I was still on my little maternity break, I had the super chance to go up north and spend a few days at Lutsen Mountains and take photos for their website and other promotional items. I didn’t post them then because I was on maternity leave and Luca was such a little bitty baby, who had the time? And honestly, after the winter that we just had with an equally chilly spring, who really wants to see pictures of snow? But Lutsen is such a gorgeous place, these images will almost make you wish for snow…ALMOST.

I got to ride the trail groomer everywhere, which was quite an experience. This thing is HUGE. And it can haul-ass up the steepest incline. I was freaked out. But I am a wuss, so there you go!

Everyone wanted their picture taken. They saw a nerdy girl with a camera and just started posing!

Especially these dudes

Showoffs

What a view

And if you want a super unique and fun place to get married at, consider Lutsen Mountains. Its so pretty up there, how could you go wrong? Taking the gondola up the mountain (especially in the fall) is a fun way to get to a wedding. Especially in Minnesota, who knew we even had a mountain?? My fantastic friend Melissa is in charge of coordinating weddings there, she will treat you right. She is so nice, you may want to marry her too!

This is Melissa, she will kill me for posting this, but she lives 4 hours away so I’m not scared of her.

The first Mini Session is less than 2 weeks away! Babies and Kids day is May 18th and there are only a few spots left.

The next Mini Session is June 1st, Families and Maternity day. Space is limited on that day too.

Then June 15th is Pet day, bring in your pooch, kitty or other cute creature for some fun photos! Only cute pets are allowed, no snakes. Ick.
