Pasadena Children’s Photography {Hannah’s 1 Year Portraits}

May 1, 2013 Posted inthe wee ones

I love this family.  They really do make the cutest kids, and Hannah did not disappoint on her 1 year session, the last of her Baby’s First Year Collection sessions.  I especially like her squishy faced giggle when she took a few steps.  She was so proud of herself.

We did most of this children’s photography session at our Home Studio in Pasadena.  I loved being able to use some my my new photography prop chairs.  The way little kids love being in a grown up chair and seeing their smiles is the best.  I’m only sad that this was Hannah’s last session and I won’t get to see her, or her sister Emma, (oh OK, and their parents!) for a while, until their next family portrait.

Until next time, enjoy Hannah’s smiles and let us know what you think.

Two Is Better Than One {Cheeky Monkeys, Sat May 4th 9am – Sunset}

April 18, 2013 Posted inthe fun ones

Just a reminder that we are taking reservations for time slots from 9am to sunset on May 4th.  This is a great opportunity to see what the custom photography experience with Nicola Borland Photography is like, with a minimal investment.

We are making two appointments for you.  One for your session time on May 4th, and one between Monday May 6th to Wednesday May 8th.  Why this second appointment?  Well we love having clients come into the studio to view your images.  Yes, can you c=probably see them on your iPhone,m or laptop, but most likely your monitor is not calibrated and you will not see the images as it is intended to look.  The skin tone may be slightly orange, or the overall look may be too light, or too dark.  This is never good when looking at your beautiful children.

We have you come into the view them on our large screen monitors, and best of all we help guide you though the process.  Because they are your kids, you will most likely love all the images, and have a really hard time trying to decide on what is the best one for your garndmother, and the best one for your own walls.  Using our years of experience, we can help you chose the best images for the wall portrait.  We will even let you know if we think an image will not look great as a 20×30 canvas on the wall, and may be better in a smaller size.

So yes, it may seem silly to have to come back in when it seems so easy to  view them online, but trust us, you won’t regret it!

Top Five Reasons to have a Professional Business Headshots {www.pasadenabusinessheadshots.com}

April 5, 2013 Posted inthe business ones
  1. People tend to do business with those they know, like and trust. Having a professional business headshot helps people feel like they know you before you’ve ever even met.
  2. A polished, professional headshot taken by a professional photographer conveys, well, professionalism whether you’re in a suit or not.
  3. People spend more time looking at photographs on your website than at your text.
  4. This is often times the first impression you make with a potential client. A professionally photographed headshot is going to send a different message than an amateur one.
  5. And you never know when someone’s going to ask you for your headshot, so it’s just good to have it on hand.
