Fresh Picked Threads – Commercial Shoot Seattle Photographer

chara — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 20:06:07 +0000

This recent commercial photoshoot was so fun & unique! It was for an up & coming new sewing thread website that is launching from Seattle. The model was just gorgeous & what a great theme for a photoshoot – fresh picked threads! The best part is that I enjoy sewing as a hobby so this commercial shoot was extra fun for me. Enjoy! :)

I cannot wait to see this company’s new website when it launches! It should be fabulous! :)

I have several other recent sessions I am excited to share on the blog soon! Summer has been so much fun, I love being able to get out to do photo sessions when the weather is beautiful :) If you are interested in commercial photography, portraits, or weddings by Chara Michele Photography just send me an email or give me a call. I would be happy to talk with you about booking a session or to set up a free consultation!

New Portrait & Wedding Packages! {Greater Seattle Photographer}

chara — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 21:22:27 +0000

Just wanted to mention that I made some changes to my portrait & wedding packages so that they are better than ever! All packages now come with the processed digital images from your session on disc with the printing rights. This use to be an add on, but I wanted to make my portrait & wedding packages extra special for my wonderful clients! Of course you can still order prints, albums, canvases, and other goodies from me, but now you have a little extra something to enjoy & cherish!

Plus for those of you looking for a wedding photographer, book in the month of July & take advantage of the specials.

Wedding Project Photo Shoot | Seattle Wedding Photographer

chara — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 17:25:51 +0000

Looking for a cute couple in Seattle willing to pose as a bride & groom for a photoshoot for an upcoming project I am working on. You don’t have to be a recent bride & groom, although it would be great if you have your own wedding dress to wear for the session. I don’t care if you are engaged, recently married, or married for ten years. I just want to be able to capture that you love each other.

What do you get out of this? You will get an amazing wedding photosession with me as the photographer with the full-res images from the session on a CD. I will also throw in another free photo session of you & your significant other along with the high-res images from that session on a CD so that you have some non-wedding shoot images as well.

The date of this session is flexible, but the session will be sometime in mid-July. The location for the bride & groom shoot will be in Seattle at a location of my choice. If you chose to do a 2nd photo shoot, you can pick the location in or around Seattle.

I am reserving the right to pick the right couple as a bride & groom for this project.

If you are interested, send me a pic of you & your significant other (plus your dress if you can) to info@charamichelephotography.com

If you know someone who might be interested in this, please pass this along! :)

6 month old baby session – Seattle Portrait & Baby Photographer

chara — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 18:00:46 +0000

I took this little guy’s newborn photos in December & his mom’s maternity pics before that. So it was a lot of fun to be able to do a 6 month photo session of him a couple weeks ago. Here is the sneak peek at his 6 month old session…

Isn’t he darling! He was even a little tired the day of the shoot, although you were never guess that since he smiled a bunch anyways! :)

These two shots below are probably my favorites from the session…

I just love when I get to see a family & their little ones grow. Sessions like this one are always so much fun!

Seattle Wedding Photographer – Why choose Chara Michele Photography?

chara — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 22:05:57 +0000

I think that this might go up on my website under the details section, but I thought I would also share this on the blog. Choosing a photographer for your big day is an important decision & since there are so many options out there it can be a difficult one. Especially considering how many great & talented photographers there are in the Seattle area. I thought this would be a great way to share a little bit more about myself as a wedding photographer & why I feel I am the right one for your special day…

Your wedding day is a very important day, one to be remembered for a lifetime. So you want to make sure your choice of photographer is the right one. As a full time photographer, I have the time for you & the ability to focus on your wedding. I don’t have another job cluttering up my time or distracting me from doing the best job possible. My job is to be your photographer.

Before your wedding I will take the time to meet with you for a wedding consultation to discuss all the details you don’t need (or want) to be thinking about on your wedding day. To help us get to know each other so that you feel completely comfortable & confident in front of a camera, we will schedule a relaxed engagement session for you & your significant other full of romance and fun. After the wedding, I will get your photos to you in a timely manner & help you plan out your wedding album to remember your perfect day by.

Most important, I feel that your wedding day is an important day to be remembered and I want to help you capture that day along with the little moments that make it so special.

Happy Mother’s Day – Seattle Newborn Photographer

chara — Mon, 10 May 2010 00:16:48 +0000

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mother’s out there! I thought it might be fun to celebrate Mother’s Day on the blog with photos from a recent newborn session. Plus I was just finishing these up & thought the couple might enjoy a sneak peek. :)

I love this shot in black & white, and it is perfect for Mother’s Day! Isn’t it so sweet how his fingers curled up around her hand…

Congrats J & S on the newest little addition to your family!
