Client Gallery Update

Just wanted to give everyone an update!

When you log on to the CLIENT gallery on my web site, www.nataliefinazzophotography.com, you will now be re-directed to a new gallery to view your images in called Zenfolio! Zenfolio allows you to not only view and share your images with the password I give you but you can now purchase your images through Zenfolio as well!

I will still give each of my clients proofs and a CD/photo release with all of your images to keep, so nothing changes there. This is just a nice cherry on top of the product offerings I want to make available to my clients!

I only uploaded a couple of the last sessions I completed. If your gallery isn't up and you would like it to be please send me an email and I will upload it for you. If you gallery is there it can be accessed with the same password as the previous gallery.

ciao! natalie

Happy Birthday!

Today Grace turns 1 year old! Her mom and dad brought her over to the studio recently and since her birthday was right around the corner we took the opportunity to let her indulge in a little cake! Needless to say making the mess was WAY more fun than cleaning up. She was definitely a fan of the frosting...and the number one, although it wasn't edible...and until dad pulled a little piece of the actual cake off for her I don't think she even realized she could eat that part! Smart little girl...the frosting is the best part! Hope you have a great birthday Grace!

Class of 2010

Yep, I'm hooked! I love taking pictures of Seniors and Rebecca made it so easy for me! Literally of the 400-and-some-odd pictures I took of her I had about 100 favorites! How do you narrow that down?!? :) What made it especially fun is that she is on the colorguard team and we got some incredible photos of her with her flags...what a great prop! Here is just a sampling of the pictures from our afternoon together. More to come!

Christina

Every now and again it's fun for a photographer to get on the other side of the camera! Check out these pictures of a fellow photographer, Christina, that I took...the sun was coming in over the trees and I just love how I was able to capture it in these pictures of her.

Tied the knot!

Here are the last of Andy & Nicole's wedding pictures!

Andy actually had a brilliant idea!...since the wedding itself was pretty much limited to immediate family members, between the ceremony and the reception I edited some of the pictures I took, zapped them over and had them printed, picked them up on my way to the reception and ta-da! Now, all of the guests who were invited to the reception got to see the wedding ceremony pictures! The pictures were set up in beautiful frames on the gift table below...

Little Miss Gwyn

Little Miss Gwyn and her family came to visit me at the studio again! It was so fun seeing how much she has grown in 3 months! Towards the end of our session she stood up, with the help of mom, and gave dad this look as if to say "I think I am actually doing this! I think I am standing up!" What a little personality!

Mr. Talent

One of the things I like the best about photography is meeting new people. And what's even better is meeting new people who aren't afraid to try new things with me and maybe step out of their comfort zone just a little bit. :) Paul Reyburn is one of those people. Yes, I think he thought I was crazy when I walked into the studio room with a child's chair, but I just love this shot! I guess it's a good thing he's such a talented actor because I'm pretty sure in this picture he's wondering what the heck he got himself into by hiring me! :)

Mr. & Mrs. Fox

Yep...still editing Andy & Nicole's wedding photographs...but I am closer than I have ever been to finishing!!

Welcome Evan!

Little Evan came to visit me at the studio shortly before he was two weeks old. He was up for most of our session but I was able to capture some sleepy shots of him towards the end. He especially enjoyed being held by mom and dad and was quite content in their arms which gave me the opportunity to get a lot of interaction shots between him and mom and dad!

Tomas

Tomas and his parents came to visit me at the studio a couple of weeks ago and here are some of my favorite pictures from our session together!

The Ceremony

Weddings are so much fun to shoot...but the editing takes hours! Plus, for those of you who know me well, you know I kinda-sorta have this thing about perfection...yes, I will even admit to being quite to very much obsessive compulsive. I just want these to be perfect! And so far, they are!!

What a beautiful bride, and such a handsome groom! Enjoy these pictures from Andy & Nicole's Wedding Ceremony!

Just a few more favorites...

I just finished editing the twins newborn session and had to post just a few more of my favorites!

Welcome Babies!

This little family went from 4 to 6 really quick! Meet Nate & Luke! I'm fairly certain Luke was the quiet, more laid back and sleepy baby during our photoshoot...or maybe it was Nate who pretty much slept through our session together? Regardless these are two adorable little baby boys and I was thrilled to get to take their newborn pictures!

Getting Ready

Andy & Nicole were married on June 20, 2009 and I was so excited to be their wedding photographer! I have so many favorites I wasn't sure where to start with them...so I figured the beginning couldn't hurt! Nicole went to a fancy little boutique salon in Victoria to get her hair and makeup done and this is where my day with her started. After she was done we took a very scenic drive out to the ceremony site. They were married at a friends house, on a beautiful piece of lakeside wooded land, on the outskirts of the city. More to come of the ceremony, family pictures and the reception! Here are just a few of the getting ready part!
