Happily Ever After

I was introduced to Katie and Will last July when I photographed Katie’s brother and his wife on their wedding day. They are in the process of planning a 2010 wedding for here in Mankato. They currently live up north and were in town a few days ago to create these engagement portraits with me. Here is a sample from the session. Congrats Katie and Will on your engagment!

Family Outdoor Portraits

It’s the perfect time of year to get your family together for your annual family portrait. Fall (and holiday cards) comes way too fast, don’t let it sneak up on you. Get your portrait taken now before you forget, and before you loose that summer tan.

Here is a recent family I worked with in their hometown of Janesville, MN. The family of four was in town for the local festival and were able to schedule a few minutes of family photos with me. Thank you guys, here’s a sample from the session, as well as the entire session link to follow. Enjoy!

Class of 2010 Senior Portrait Scholarships Now at Inspired Portrait Photography

We are offering our annual scholarship contest: Senior Portrait Scholarships for two deserving high school seniors graduating with the Class of 2010. The Scholarships awarded will be valued at $350+ in portrait credit. Applications are being accepted now through June 20th, 2009

For application or for questions Please call Sherry @ 507.381.8007

Class of 2010
School will be out soon and summer is right around the corner. This means different things for various students, but if you are an upcoming senior, it is time for your professional senior portraits to be taken.  Senior portraits are something that most students look forward to and start planning for years in advance.  Students wonder which photographer they will go to, what clothing they will wear, and what his/her final images may look like.

For most students it is just a matter of choosing a studio and scheduling his/her appointment. Inspired Portrait Photography understands that some students don’t have the opportunity to simply make that choice. Our professional staff grew up understanding how our families lived on a tight budget. When it was time for our senior portraits, money was scarce, and we treasured the few senior portraits we could afford to have. Sherry then made a promise she would one day give back to other deserving students that had the dream of enjoying senior portraits. There are a variety of reasons that can prevent seniors from being able to have the portraits they are dreaming of.  Because of the rising day to day living expenses, unforeseen circumstances, and various other hardships, many families are experiencing financial setbacks. Everyone deserves to feel the best they can feel through portraits. Our hope is that Inspired Portrait Photography can help our community one portrait at a time.  Our goal for the class of 2010 is that everyone has the chance to share with others through professional portraiture.

The two scholarship packages will include: the session fee for an indoor/outdoor session, one 11×14 wall portrait, senior folio, many gift prints and wallets to share with friends and family. Applications are required to submit an essay (250 words or less) telling us why you (or the person you are nominating) deserves to receive one of the scholarships.  Awards may be based on either financial need or personal circumstances.  Applications are available at the studio, local high schools or by calling 507.381.8007.

Photos From this Past weekend:

Friday afternoon Lucas, & my mom & dad & I installed our new studio sign along the edge of our property. Lucas and my dad did most of the work digging and placing the poles level. Mom and I helped when it came time to lift the 80lb sign up into the air while they drilled and fastened the sign to the posts. It was a site to see I am sure! Props to my good friend Josh of JS Signs for his hard work on making the sign for us and having incredibly fast turn around time with it! I’m very excited for you to see it too!
