A fellow photographer recently reminded me of the importance blogging both for SEO purposes and more importantly, as a way to connect with current and prospective clients. So, with that in mind, I bought some cool new photo blogging software that makes it easy to create the collages like the one you see above. These are all shots taken of students from the Niagara Region. Apparently it helps to use the bold, italics and underline functions on the keywords too. Ah, so much to learn about SEO. If you have any tips, be sure to let me know.

Anyhow, back to the photography. I love shooting all kinds of things, including weddings, kids, pets, landscapes... pretty much anything that has great light, either natural or light I create. That being said, it is my hope to develop the high school senior portrait market in this area. As some of you may know, high school senior portrait photography is as much a part of high school life as proms to our neighbors south of the border. It has caught on in a few places in Canada, but not here... yet!

Despite the fact that today's teens have a million photos of themselves, very few have images like those you see above. It is my hope to provide this service to grads (and their parents!) so that they have something more than just crazy snapshots from their senior year. As they go off to uni or college or into the workforce, they'll undoubtedly change as they take on new challenges in life and meet new friends. You can't keep your kids the way they are forever, but you can have images of them taken at this exciting time in their lives, that you will cherish forever.

Give me a call if your son or daughter has just graduated from high school and we'll talk about a session planned just for them. I'll be rolling out a promo offer for this type of session within the next few days, so keep an eye on this blog (yes, I'll update it more - really) and my Lakehouse Photography Facebook page for details.
