Hello blogosphere!

Sorry for the lack of posting as of late! I have a few posts lined up for ya'll, but I'm also busy working on an updated version of my website AND working on transferring to Wordpress! Hold on to your seats, because good change is coming! :)

Oodles of Love!

Friends, Fam, and Fans!

Thanks so much for your interest in my work!!! I'm up to 60 followers on Facebook, and I'm extremely excited! As I've already mentioned, I've got a lot of work coming up, and I can't wait to keep working and growing and showing you the progress! I appreciate all the kind words and critique more than you'll ever know.

Love you all-
D

Bryan+Erin

It's so hard to come up with just a few favorites from this shoot since I love love love them all! :) Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Congrats to you two on your wedding last weekend! Hope you had a fabulous time in Mexico on your honeymoon!

Tons of news!

Lots has been happening in my world as of late. And there are pictures to go with it! :)

In non-picture news, the "real job" gave me a crazy 9 day week recently. There, lucky for you, aren't pictures from that. I have a day on the potential new "real job" tomorrow, so keep fingers crossed. It'll be a great opp for me and the photography business side of my life if I can get it.

In photo news...
I do have Erin+Bryan's pictures almost done...LOVE THEM. Hopefully you (and they) will, too! And they just got married this past weekend, so HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to them!!!

I have a TON of jobs lining up one after another. I just booked my third wedding for next summer and potentially have a couple more heading my way. I have a baby session booked for the end of the year. I also have two family sessions coming up soon so they can get those holiday cards out. On top of that, another engagement session! Exciting! Plus, lucky me, I have a client who wants to do MORE photos now that it's all multi-colored Autumn out....who am I to disagree?

I just took a vacation, however, so I'm feeling much more behind than I normally feel, so emails, you'll be getting answered ASAP! And photos, you'll be getting put into the editing realm again! And, yes, I have vacation photos, too...New York City! I wish I had been able to wander alone and take way more than I did though! But isn't that how all us photographer kids are? :)

So, internet and photo friends, there is a ton on its way toward you, I just didn't want you to think I had forgotten you in the chaos that is my world. :) Happy Autumn! Go out and enjoy some pumpkin patches, corn mazes and hot cider (just remember to take your camera along)!

Ashley

Thanks to all of you that have ventured over to the Facebook (remember when it was called that?! haha) and fanned me! If you haven't, you should! I often post pictures there first...and more than likely post way more than you see on the blog! And who doesn't love more pictures, more often?! :)

In other news...I did a quicky photo shoot with the fantastic Ashley of Ashley Troyer Events. We'd been playing email and phone tag for a while, and I was so happy to get to finally meet her! And then, not only meet her, but photograph her! She's gorgeous inside and out and I'm excited to get to work with her more. *cross fingers*

Lori+Jason

Lori and Jason will have a special place in my heart forever because they are the first non-friend/family to offer to pay for my services! Thanks, Lori and Jason!

You've seen the teasers, so you know that these two are HOTHOTHOT. I definitely think they're great, and I hope that you think their pictures are. Lori and Jason, I can't wait for your wedding next summer!!!

Teaser: Bryan+Erin

Jason+Lori will be finalized tomorrow, but for tonight I have a couple teaser shots of Bryan+Erin. Erin responded to a post I made on the Weddingbee classifieds and I had a fabulous time with these two! I'm pretty sure they don't make them any nicer or cooler than these two. I hope I get to hang out with them again soon!

Facebook!

Hey everyone! I'm still working away on the edits for Lori and Jason, but I wanted to drop in to tell you to find me on Facebook! "Dawn Schaffer Photography" or you can just go here! Doesn't everyone like a good social networking chance? ;)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I'll be back soon!

Teaser: Jason+Lori

This couple is HOT! Also, they're the first non-friend/family couple to hire me! Love love love them!

Congratulations!

Much enthusiasm and congratulations are flying from me to you, Jenna, on the announcement of the little one on the way! HOORAY! So excited for you!

As for the rest of you...don't you fear! There are pictures coming soon! Big ol' e-session again this weekend. :) Don't miss me too much before then! And thanks for the great comments on B+B's session! I STILL love looking at those. xoxo

Blake+Brianne

Blake and I work for the same company and while covering an injury at his store last fall, we became good friends. So when he proposed to his gorgeous girlfriend, Brianne, I teased him about not having instantly called me about photos. :) Turns out Brianne and I are both fans of Hanson (is this going to be a thing with all my bride's?! haha) and we got along swimmingly and they really DID choose me to take their photos! So we started out by doing an e-session and I'm really looking forward to their wedding next summer! They're so in love and it radiates from these pictures.


























What's a beach shoot without a seagull or two? :)






Appropriate, right? Also, I LOVE this image. LOVE. :) And, yes, that's sand blowing at their feet!


The favorite of the shoot, I think. I like a lot of them, but I feel like there is so much meaning in this one!








Two thumbs up, for sure!

Congrats, you two, and I hope these photos are everything you wished for and more! Thanks for being troopers and enduring wind, cold and rain! I think it was totally worth it! I can't WAIT for your wedding!
