Welcome!

Thanks for visiting my blog! If you're a client looking for your sneak peeks, note that I normally have them up within a few days of the session, but at times it may take me up to a week. Remember to click on the picture to see it bigger, and feel free to nab these for use on Myspace, Facebook, or emailing to friends and family (but note- these are web-sized images, and not suitable for printing. Also, please do not remove my watermark. I'm proud of these images and want everyone to know I took them :) I make it small and discreet- and I'd rather not have to put a big, obnoxious watermark across them instead... So please help a girl (& the rest if my clients) out and respect my copyright! Thanks).
If you're a prospective client, make certain to visit my website for more images and info. There's a link in the sidebar. Please contact me with any questions or to schedule a session: gypsyisledesigns@yahoo.com. Thanks again for visiting and enjoy your stay!

A whole month has gone by...

and it feels like only a week! Sorry I haven't been updating my blog; it has been a crazy month and a half! Plus, my last 2 sessions I can't share pics from (gotta love those boudoir's!). This will be my first (and hopefully last) post without any pics to attach. I actually have quite a few to share, and have been gearing up for a big "year in review" type of post... but my grandfather passed away this week and suddenly I'm just not in the mood. So I am just going to make a very brief posting now and I will hopefully be feeling more festive when I get back from my photography conference next week.

First, a very belated Merry Christmas! And a (slightly less belated) Happy New Year!

I had a wonderful 2007 and hope that 2008 will be even better! Thanks to all my wonderful clients and supportive family and friends. Without you my business wouldn't exist. I have some wonderful Brides next year and I can't wait to see your beautiful weddings! I have several maternity models getting ready for me (lol), and I can't wait to see all the newborns that are due next spring and summer! The 2008 class is almost ready to graduate and the class of 2009 is gearing up for a great Senior year. I can't wait to see what beautiful people and things I will have the honor of shooting next year.

I am taking the month of January off. Partially because I want to revamp my pricing, policies, website, and business literature... but mostly b/c I am a big wussy and can't handle the cold :) (plus, I really need to spend some time with my family... December was a CRAZY month for me and helped me realize that I really do NOT want to be that busy again! My poor family STILL hasn't recieved any christmas gifts from me... I was too busy editing/ordering/delivering to even think about shopping!)

So, at some point this month, I will run a little blog contest featuring my fave pics of last year... and the winner will get a VERY nice surprise gift from me :)

Thanks again for everyone who has supported me this past year. You are all very wonderful and I truly appreciate everyone! Have a wonderful 2008!
