Debut of Pursuit 31 ~ A Photography Retreat for Moms

Drum-roll please…………………… Pin It I am so excited to announce our very first photography retreat, Pursuit 31!  After 5 years in this industry I have come to realize there is a deep need to be around like-minded, supportive, and encouraging people.  When I first started my business, I was completely alone.  Everywhere I turned for...

My Favorite things #2!

If you haven’t noticed, I am completely, head over heels, junior high crush obsessed with polaroids.  The unfortunate part of that statement is that in 2009 Polaroid stopped making instant film.  So now there are thousands of sad and lonely Polaroid 600′s that will never feel the click of another shutter.  Seriously depressing.  Being the...

Nice giveaway!! Let’s see, what would I not photograph with this?? I have been wanting one, but can’t justify the purchase right now. I would love to do “A photo a day for 365 days” in 2011! It would be fun to see what I came up with at the end of the year.

this camera wants me.

Kori Haylett - December 31, 2010 - 9:40 PM

I would like to take this camera over to my 2,500 person hometown to continue taking nostalgic pictures to make my heart happy 50 years from now.

Maalaea - December 31, 2010 - 8:46 PM

This camera makes me swooooooon! Oh, all the things I can imagine capturing with this little delight, however I’d probably spend most my time capturing my new itty bitty nephew and all of his cuteness!

Crossing my fingers!

This looks like such a fun camera! I would definitely take photos of my two little ones and make some sort of wall display with them. Oh, the possibilities!

Amancay Maahs - December 26, 2010 - 11:39 PM

gah! I want to attempt an “Instax Windows” shot…

Lisa - December 26, 2010 - 6:34 PM

I would love to have this camera to take pictures of my beautiful soon to be daughter in law and hadsome son on their wedding day. I would also be nice to take photos of all of my travels.

Sandi Farmer - December 20, 2010 - 11:52 AM

I would love to use this at my sister-in-law’s wedding! Also, it would be great for convention photos! What an amazing camera.

BChristine - December 20, 2010 - 10:14 AM

Pat - December 20, 2010 - 8:58 AM

This would be perfect for my daughter’s wedding, so I hope I win.

Beth Kruziki - December 20, 2010 - 8:29 AM

I would love to have my next art gallery opening by using this camera. It would be a tool displaying every day life in its most random manner. Mainly, I’d use the camera to take images of things we see each day with a unique perspective. ~ peace ~

What a gem – when my children were young, I took polaroid pics of all of their birthday parties. I guess by saying this, it kinda “dates” my age. However, now that my kids are all “grown up” – I know they would love it if I could add more pics to their photo albums.

FABULOUS website and blog! Viewed it for the first time today – WONDERFUL – keep up the great work and God Bless!

Casey Haynes - December 18, 2010 - 8:33 PM

I would love to take some polaroids of my beautiful daughter!

Julia - December 18, 2010 - 6:59 PM

I love polaroids so much! I have a collection of polaroid photos of my siblings and myself as kids and I want to use a camera like this to start taking pictures of my nieces and nephews so they can do the same!!

Amelia Fast - December 18, 2010 - 5:45 PM

I am dying to take photos of the rain, snow, and wintery goodness that has been covering SoCal (that doesn’t last long may I mind you). ;)

Ashley Bee - December 18, 2010 - 5:17 PM

Jenny - December 18, 2010 - 3:20 PM

Christy Eriksson - December 18, 2010 - 11:57 AM

So fun. Been wanting this forever. Thanks so sharing some of the love this year. I would want to photography my son playing. I think he would be tripped out seeing a photo come out of him.

Ella - December 18, 2010 - 10:14 AM

Alonna S. - December 4, 2010 - 7:19 PM

O000 this is exciting! I have been bummed myself about the lack of easy access to poloroid film, so his is really exciting!

My “365 Days of Me” project is ending soon and I am excited to start a new year, which a new theme of “365 Days; 365 Stories” Either a person I know or a stranger will be documented with a little blurb about something they shared in their life with me.

Celia - December 4, 2010 - 12:12 PM

OMG! This giveaway is just jaw droppingly awesome. We just had our engagement pictures taken and a couple of shots were done with the Instax! I’m dying to take photo’s of my fiance’s cousin’s baby! I bought myself a Nikon D7000 and I can’t wait to test it out.

Meridy - December 2, 2010 - 5:24 PM

I’ve totally been eyeballing this camera for my “guest book” for my wedding next fall. I am already finding fun props for people to use and make it entertaining. My favorite prop so far…a mini top hat!

Holli True - December 2, 2010 - 3:32 PM

Karen, you rock! :) This is so much fun!! I vouch for her that the winner selection is totally random!! I am just dying to take pictures of my kiddos in the snow- as we are currently over in Bend and it is snowing. :) My kiddos would also get a total kick out of the instant gratification camera- so it would be put to good use daily!! :)

Amancay - December 2, 2010 - 3:20 PM

I need some new food pix… yeah, pretty much that!

Bunn Salarzon - December 2, 2010 - 3:07 PM

Yeah, thanks to Gina I think everyone from the workshop will be getting this for Christmas this year! haha! I also have a Polaroid that I haven’t used in two years … No more film. :(

And the Winner Is….

So I was trying to figure out how to pick a winner for my last Favorite Things Contest because everyone had such amazing things to say in their comments.  I wanted this flower to be a part of all of their weddings, so I had to find something completely un-biased.  I turned to My PBFF,...
