My Weblog

i saw the polar express set!

and i am speechless.  benchmark foam did an AMAZING job on creating the set of my dreams, jaimey and matt are masters of foam.  in all honesty, i was a bit worried, as i've ALWAYS built and designed my own sets, but this year with the studio move, and all the other chaos, i knew that i wouldn't have the time to build it the way it deserved to be done.  again...benchmark exceeded my expectations!

it is being delivered to the new studio tomorrow morning, and i'll try to photograph it 'pre-paint' to give you all an idea of the set and hopefully get you all as excited about the sessions as i am.

i have lots of calls regarding what to wear...i really think there are 2 ways to go with this set...

1.  pajamas just like the movie...hannah anderson has adorable striped jammies, or go with a great romantic nightgown, or cool footy jammies.

2. formal dressing... go for the 'dicken's look'.  a great company, Perfectly Dressed Girl, has phenominal dresses, hats, etc. and will be having their trunk show out at the Convention Center, so, that's always a great source for some stunning dresses.

either way you go, this set is bound to be one full of imagination and beauty. 

we hope to see you there,

i LOVE the angels!!

today was such a blast...i photographed 4 sessions of individual angels and then 1 session with sisters...OH MY GAWSH...IT WAS SO FUN!

by far, this is always one of my ultimate favorite limited edition sessions.  the wings are so pretty, the beauty of the little girls...curls...seriously, how could one go wrong??!

we have a FEW sessions left this week, so, if you are late in getting on our books, don't wait too much longer, as these sessions only come once a year.

after kickboxing tonite (yes, i said kickboxing), i will try to post some of the images from today...

Believe angels are THIS week!

i absolutely LOVE photographing all the little 'cherubs' that come in for the angel pictures!  there is such
a beauty to the warm color, the rich gold hues, and the innocence of the wings and headpiece that make for such a wonderful personal art piece.

as always, with limited editions, we do feature special packages designed specifically for the gift giving season.  these packages vary in size, along with some featuring christmas cards for sharing with all of your loved ones.

this is one of our most popular limited editions, so it's no surprise that we have very few openings left!  if
you are wanting to have your 'little angel' be a part this year, please contact the studio at 886-8858, or go to our online books at http://www.kallhoffportrait.com then go to the reservations tab.

i look forward to sharing some images with you in the next day or so!

deadline for guarenteed christmas delivery:

Announcing our newest holiday set...POLAR EXPRESS

I've always loved the magic of the story of the Polar Express, and this year, Kelli and I decided that we would build a set to allow us to share that 'magic' with our clients.

We are building the train, the trees, will have beautiful ground fog, all to enhance the mood and the spirit of the holiday season. 

Since this set is entirely new, I do not have images to share just yet, and am looking for a few children in the month of november to help us to have some sample images.

If you are interested in letting us 'borrow'  your children for 'playing' in this set, please contact the studio!

Dates for this LE are to be: November 11-15

I'm SO EXCITED!

i found the new 'home' for the studio!! yipeeee!  so, slowly, piece by piece the studio will be moving to it's new home on 1st ave ne in uptown watertown.

it's hard to believe that in having my studio for 9 years, that it's ALWAYS been in a residential location.  this is the FIRST commercial space studio i will have ever had!!

it's awesome, i'm excited, and we will be starting our shooting THERE for our winter wonderland, and polar express limited editions. 

keep checking here for updates and pictures...until we move...ALL sessions will STILL occur at the farm.
