Pink Bow City

Pin ups have continued to be a source of joy for us at Grinkie Photography, LLC.  So much so we are joining up with Pink Bow City,  http://pinkbowcity.com, to provide content to their magazine Pink

Bow Pin ups.  They are an amazing and talented crew.  I can't wait to see where they take their community.

Grinkie Girls

Great things have been happening at Grinkie Photography, LLC.  Namely I discovered pin ups.  I still enjoy weddings and portraits, but I've been spending every penny I make on costumes, shoes and the like.  I also now have TWO other websites.  www.grinkie.com that gives you an overview of most of the pictures I've been taking and www.grinkiegirls.com that focuses on the pin ups.

I can't wait to see what 2012 brings.

Mama

Going into a shoot with a pregnant friend I didn't have a lot of inspiration, until I saw the belly.  How have I not been doing pregnancy shots.  I love curvy things and there isn't much more curvy and satisfying than a lovely belly. 

Why have a photo shoot?

I think great photography is not just about the images created, but the entire experience.  Good pictures are important, but so is the process of taking them.  We've all heard horror stories about stressful family portrait sessions gone wrong, but getting your picture taken should be fun!  Find a photographer you wouldn't mind hanging out with for an hour or so and get your best moments documented.

Doing a photo shoot both captures and creates a moment in time.  If properly embraced,  a photo shoot is an event in itself.  Pictures are the bonus.

Julianne

I am amazed  and proud to see my childhood friends turning out to be great parents.  Helping them document moments in their lives is fast becoming one of my favorite parts of photography.  I hope to be able to follow my new friends through different parts of their lives in the same way.  Here you see my friend Julianne that I have known since SECOND grade.  We started out talking about school, then camp then college, now we can talk about the joys and challenges of raising kids and building traditions with our families. 

Photography is giving me one more path to maintain connections with people I care about.

Evangelia

Evangelia is like a niece to me. I have known her mom, Angela, since Angela was one month old. ( I am three years older, but ten years less mature) I had the great pleasure recently to be there in the hospital when Jelly, as I think I'll call her, celebrated 36 hours of life.
