Where the heck have I been! & Happy Holidays!

Wow...I think I've set a record, 2 months since my last post! It has been a crazy Fall season for me: weddings, portraits, albums & holiday orders have been keeping me super busy! And I still have 3 portrait sessions and 2 weddings to shoot before the new year!

Speaking of the New Year...things happening at HBT photo in 2008:

-Office help!!!!! I will finally be adding an "employee" to HBT photo. My sister in-law Angelina has kindly agreed to help me, with her amazing organization skills, in the office and with print/album orders. I'm SO EXCITED about this!!
-New blog coming soon!
-New wedding web site.
-New portrait site.
-A wedding from the 07 season featured in Well Wed magazine.
-I'll be heading off to a hip wedding & portrait photographers convention for 5 days in early January! I'm certain to have my creative juices refueled...I'm really looking forward to this!
-I'll also be in 2 bridal shows in January. First on 1/13 from 2-6pm, an intimate bridal show held at Rena'a Fine Flowers located at 51 Ash st. in Saratoga. There will be champagne and hors d'oeuvres.
Then on 1/19, hosted by WellWed at the UPH in Saratoga Springs...NY wedding Affair.
-In April I'll be taking an intense lighting workshop with an amazing wedding photographer.
That's how things are shaping up for 08 so far. Oh...and my husband and I will be building a new house and will have our 10 year wedding anniversary in July! Wow!

Below are some Holiday cards that I designed & printed for clients this year:

Sadly I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to do my own holiday card:(
Happy Holidays everyone!!
