I am surrounded by beautiful people all the time, and especially in my own family. My niece Oksana was visiting yesterday. We got to spend a little bit of “girl” time together: I did her make-up, hair, and then, which is only natural for me, pulled out my camera and fired a few shots. By “a few” I literally mean just a few this time. I had less than 5 minutes, but she made it very easy for me to walk away with what I wanted to see.

Isn’t she model material?

I think that at times people don’t realize how beautiful they are until you show it to them. I had met some that would tell me that they are not photogenic, yet I proved them wrong with only a couple shots done at a right angle. Throw in good make-up (for ladies) and a cute hair style, and you can have a “super-model” experience.

If you would like to know what that feels like, visit my web-site: www.elenaphotographer.com (located in Longview, WA, and serving Cowlitz and surrounding counties), and complete a contact form or call me (contact on my site). We can set up a session and help you feel more beautiful, or capture most precious moments in your life.

The weather was beautiful last yesterday. It was sunny… but it was also barely over 40 F. Add in being right next to the water and it felt more like 20 F. Jessica was BRAVE! She had a couple of summer outfits. We took breaks warming her up, and warming my hands up. It is a good thing images do not show us shaking :)

Jessica’s little girl A* joined us for a bit. She had her own idea of taking pictures–she ran and we chased her.


They are a beautiful pair, aren’t they?!

She is pure hotness…
This is one of my favorite images from the day…
…as is this.
Jessica, it was a pleasure working with you and getting to know you a bit more :) Your gallery will be up soon.

Yesterday I had a very fun session with beautiful Jessica at the Willow Grove Beach. Here is a sneak peak. More is to come.

Love is in the Air! I know it’s true for me… and not only this season–around the month of February :)

To celebrate Couples in Love, I am running a Valentine’s Day Special for all who are in LOVE! If you are love struck and want to treat your “honey” to something special–forget the flowers and chocolate! Flowers will wilt, chocolate will be gone before you know it. What lasts is PICTURES! There is no better way to freeze a moment in time than with photographs :) You, of course, can still get the flowers and the chocolate, and we can even make them a part of the pictures :) But you are sure to sweep your sweetheart off her/his feet with a special Valentine’s Day photo session!

Or… if you know that you cannot live without the Love of your Life a day longer, maybe you would want to make this Valentine’s Day UNFORGETTABLE, and propose? How about proposing On Camera? She does not have to know… at least about the proposal part, until the very moment… And then you will have images that you can pass down to generations to come…

I am full of ideas and… LOVE!

VALENTINE’S SPECIAL

$25 off the Session fee, AND $25 toward a purchase of images/products on orders of $200 or more*

If you don’t have someone special yet, I don’t want you to feel left out–you are more than welcome to treat yourself to this special as well!!!
