Awesome year.

Thank you.

Thank you to everyone who allowed me to capture and freeze memories and moments for you.

I am so grateful for each of you.

This year has been one full of lots of new life, I’ve enjoyed coming into your homes and photographing your family in your own element, with a lifestyle feel. Love the newborn lifestyle sessions and how many I was able to capture this year.

I’ve also enjoyed the families, high school seniors, corporate events and of course the awesome couples and weddings that took place in 2012!

So thank you for making these moments happen.

Thank you for your continued support and love that you all so graciously show me.

I am SO excited for 2013…..seriously……. but without any more rambling…. in no particular order… here is a look back on a spectacular 2012….. (it’s a big post…. bigger is better, right?)

Happy New Year friends, love you all.

~Heidi

Thanks for making this year amazing. Peace & love to you and yours in the New Year!

Below is an example of a {REEL LIFE} Wedding video. If you are getting married and would like to know more info on how to add a video to your wedding package, please contact me. I can’t tell you enough how awesome I think it is to watch a 5 min highlight clip of an 8 hr event…and still capture the real & complete essence of the day. How fun would it be to show your friends and family a short film like this…. hope you enjoy. If you’d like to view the photos from this Reel Life session you can view them HERE.

Our {Reel Life Session} goal is to provide you with your very own glorified home video. I love those old time videos everyone always shot in the 1960′s, you know the ones with no sound….what happened to the days of home videos? We live in a world where our pace is faster than ever. Time whizzes by and doesn’t stop for anyone. Your babies grow right out of the nest before your eyes. That special day you planned for your whole life is now over. Wouldn’t it be amazing to capture these moments, not only in photographs but also set it to something so moving as video (yes, pun intended)?  Now, Velvet Owl provides you with this option.  It’s  for those of you who really want to invest in your family’s memories, invest in something that you will truly cherish for a lifetime. We are bringing back the home video, in a whole new and re-inventive way…. if this is something you know you want in your collection, contact us to set up your very own {Reel Life Session}.

Thanks for coming by. I’d love to hear what you think of our new {Reel Life} adventures…Leave me your thoughts below!

Much love & happiness to you. ~Heidi

Family :: {Washington Family Photographer} http://www.velvetowlblog.com/2011/08/the-z-family-washington-family-photographer/ http://www.velvetowlblog.com/2011/08/the-z-family-washington-family-photographer/#comments Tue, 30 Aug 2011 20:03:40 +0000 VeLvet OwL Photography http://www.velvetowlblog.com/?p=3912 {REEL LIFE FAMILY SESSION | VIDEO COMING SOON FOR THIS SESSION!!!}

Our children are here to stay
But our babies are not, I’m sorry to say
They grow and learn everyday
In the most remarkable and intriguing way

We watch and admire our babies so young
Hoping someday they will go to be strong
Wisdom and integrity are a hopeful thought too
Their brilliance is amazing that much is true…

…Cherish the little moments so tender and sweet
They grow so quickly you can barely speak
But remember this, as I reassure you with a tear in my eye
Babies are your children and your children will never say ‘Good Bye’

-Crystal Kaylynn Acerrio
