Fall Is In The Air

It's that time of year, when the leaves on the trees start to change and it feels like magic outside when you photograph things.  This past weekend I was able to venture out to do just that!  I got in my car and just drove.  Maybe I did get lost one or two times and maybe I did have to open up my GPS app on my phone to help me, but that's what made it so enjoyable.  I had no time that I had to be home, I had no stops that had to be made, it was just me, my camera and the open road.  I came across some amazing scenery, in places that I had never been to before, right in our own backyard of Ontario.  I had a lot of fun!  There was a shot with a red door that I can't wait to edit and show everyone.  I feel like this door has been photographed a lot!  But it's tucked away on a lonely road, which made it that much more fun shooting it.

Over the past few weeks, I was in the Schomberg Art Street Festival.  This was my first year at this show and I hope that it won't be my last!  It is a juried art show that happens on the main street in Schomberg, Ontario.  It was a lot of fun.  Yes it was cold and yes it did rain but surprisingly that did not get me down!  That made it that much more fun to meet each individual that came into my booth.  I met some lovely people throughout the entire weekend.  It was a great success and I would like to that everyone that came out to support Corcoran Photography and my work that I was selling.

Just an update about what I will be doing over the next few weeks.  I have many family fall photo sessions and head shot sessions booked.  I am very excited for all of it:)  I have recently come into a few extraordinary props for the family sessions and I am really looking forward to seeing the clients faces when I pull them out of the truck:)

I will post a few sneak peaks shortly:):)

Upcoming Show

As most of my friends and family know, I am in another upcoming Juried Art Event.  I have attached the website below, for more information.

Click on the list of the artists---there is a write up about myself, which I also include with every sold piece.

It is happening September 21 - 22nd, 2013 in Schomberg, Ontario. 

I will be showing many new pieces and lots of framed items, just in time for the gifts to be purchased for the Holidays.  I will also be offering a special treat or reward if you will to the first 30 purchases.

Please remember that I also do custom orders.  If you see something you like, I am able to work with you on what size or style you would like it printed or framed.

I am also showing a few different pieces that no one has ever seen yet.  Come by my booth and check out all the new pieces.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Until then, take care.

Name in Lights

I think it is still surreal that people think my photography is unique and different.  I try to think out of the box and capture what everyone wants to capture but can't.  I enjoy taking pictures all the time!  In fact my boyfriends Father calls me 'Scoop.'  I think the nickname is very fitting for me.  I never leave home without my camera and if I do thank goodness for my camera on my phone.  It's those moments all the time that I enjoy shooting.

This past weekend I was an exhibitor at my first Art Show.  The Rails End Gallery Festival in Haliburton, Ontario.  What an experience.  I loved it all, from the stories I heard from the customers, to the holding of the tent so it doesn't fly away with the wind.  Every part of it was an amazing experience and I would not change it one bit!  It's so much fun to me!

I have been editing pictures this week from the show and making a small video.  My next post will definitely include those items.  If you did not make it out to the show you missed a wide variety of exhibitors - - hope to see you out next year at it.

I have applied to one more show this year.  It was also an Art Show, in which you had to be accepted by the jury.  It is closer to the end of the summer/beginning of fall.

Until the next post, keep supporting all your local artists.  It's the little things that make them all happy they are doing it for a living.
