I received my new Coffee Table Book sample yesterday.  This piece is truly exquisite in every way imaginable.  This is not the typical slim magazine-style press printed book.  This 10×10 book is flush mounted with true linen pressed photos-not machine press paper. Each page is thick and ridged and the quality is a perfect choice for my discerning clients. Choose either a simple & elegant layout or a fun themed design.  Each one is custom made: for you.  Several cover options include the finest leathers or choose an environmental friendly contemporary cover to show your own style. Classic or modern- the choices are endless.  Smaller duplicate books and upgrades available.

You can now let your session images tell a story with this true conversation piece.   I cannot wait to show it at my next appointment!

I could not wait to share a few minutes of my morning.  My three year old son was playing out in the backyard this morning.  He knocked on the backdoor and I opened to him exclaiming “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” and he handed me flowers. First the little ‘daisies’ went into my hands, then he went and hand picked the only dandelion ‘flower’ he could find.  He was so careful to pull it from the ground to save the stem.  Then he went to the purple Ruellia bush and started gathering those bright buds.  He ended with some green leaves from yet another plant and set the little ‘daisies’ on top.  I think it’s quite a lovely and colorful bouquet!

(No- it’s not my birthday either… but it felt like it today.)

These two gorgeous Seniors were a ball of laughs yesterday and I enjoyed our Golden Hour (a.k.a. sunset) time together.  I realize how much more fun these lengthy Senior sessions are when you have a friend tag along and do theirs at the same time.  M & A- I appreciate all the help you gave at this beautiful location- although the heat and wind were aweful!

Enjoy the sneak peek and thanks again to mom for being so patient!

I had the pleasure of spending over four hours with these two Senior beauties yesterday.  As reps, they went above and beyond my requests and both are as sweet as they can be.  Their mom’s tagged along with us and it was such a fun evening.  We were all worn out by the time the sun went down but I couldn’t be happier with all the variety!  This has been one of the hardest sessions to choose sneak peeks for- so here are more than usual.  Enjoy and more to come :)

(Edited 9-9-09..  Thank you for such wonderful feedback and emails about these Seniors!!!  I’m humbled and thrilled to begin offering this.  I’m starting the rep shoots this weekend :)  I need 1 more 2010 female for Allen High School still.  Date can be adjusted for asap.)

Out of no where these past two weeks I am getting several requests for 2010 Senior portraits.  I’d considered these before, but thought it was a little late for this new crop of Seniors, but I have been corrected and requested!!!  I’m all for this new adventure, so I’m needing 2010 Senior reps to help me out!  I need both male and females to model at various locations in the area asap.  The sessions will be free, orders will be nicely discounted and other goodies are given for free… like cash for other senior referrals!  I have new Senior products in the works too.

Each Senior needs to be fun, social, active, fashionable, and enjoys being photographed.  Best friends/boyfriends/siblings welcome to join- as long as they are Seniors and fit the criteria too.

Email a short bio and a recent snapshot to info@rhondaduronphotography.com and I’ll let each inquiry know more details as they occur.  2010 is their year, so I’m completely open to their ideas and suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
