Krista + Josh’s Album | New Pricing Guide

February 26th, 2009 by Kylene. Filed in Exciting News

Hey there everyone!  I know the blog has been a bit slow, but in the background I have been working hard on album design and trying to organize a few projects!  I would like to share with you the latest album I got in from Krista and Josh’s wedding last October!  Also, I’ve just finished updating my Pricing Guide and would love to share it with everyone interested!  It’s a fun PDF with lots of pictures of the products that I offer and a FAQ section.  Drop me an email at kylene@foreverbykylene.com or leave a comment here on the blog and I’ll get it right over to you!  If I already have an inquiry from you I’ll probably just send you this new Guide anyways!  :)

Leslie + Justin | Engagement around Jacksonville

February 23rd, 2009 by Kylene. Filed in Engagement Love

I got right back to work when I got home from Vegas!  Friday afternoon I met up with Leslie and Justin for their engagement session.  We started at a fun park on the river and ended up at this fun little strip of shops and just ran around and explored.  We had some good finds!  I can’t wait for their wedding in November, it’s going to be at the new and improved Jacksonville Zoo!  They told me ahead of time that neither of them liked having their picture taken, but I was up to the challenge and think  we all ended up having fun!  Here’s your sneak peek and I’ll have the rest up soon!

 I think this is my fav.  I’m always drawn to the fun, bright colors:

We found some really cool stuff at this antique store!!  Lovin the title of this book!

This reminds me of when I was in school and we had to “cross-process” a roll of slide film to see how it made the colors all weird:

So, I wanted one more cool setting before we wrapped things up.  We came across this empty bar with a pool table and I asked them if they’d feel comfortable playing.  They said “sure” and racked the balls.  After a bit I realize, Justin knows what he’s doing!  Turns out they’re both on a pool LEAGUE!  What I thought was just a fun backdrop turned out to be something that really showcased their personal lives.  Love when that happens….

Yep, you guessed it!  Their wedding date is 11.7.09!  They’re lucky it wasn’t the 5th because Justin had already knocked that ball in.  :)

These turned out great. I love the ones of us at the pool table. And the book is great. Thank you so much. :-)

Kim Osterbrock

I can’t figure out which picture is my favorite! The one where Leslie is lounging on the tree, the first one in front of the graffiti, or the ones playing pool. You really captured THEM! What a unique photographer.

Featured on One Wed’s Savvy Scoop Blog!

Well, I made it back from Vegas in one piece!  As expected I had an overload of wonderful information, heard some fabulous and inspirational seminars, and maybe had a little social time as well.  :)  

I packed so much clothing that I left all my camera gear and laptop at home, so I wasn’t able to blog.  But while I was in Vegas, a great new Bridal Blog launched where I will be an expert guest contributor!  Bookmark this because you’ll want to check in often for lots of great info and ideas.  Because there are lots of contributors, there’s lots of posts which means mine has gotten buried in the last few days.  But this direct link should take you to my post: http://www.onewed.com/blog/savvy-scoop/category/photos.  The blog is put on by One Wed, a great resource for all brides.  You can research all types of vendors in your area and find lots of pictures to give you some inspiration.  Make sure you bookmark their site too: One Wed

I wrote about the “First Look” – the benefits of it and why it’s becoming more popular.  It was so much fun to write this entry and I’m ready to start working on my next one!  I’d love for you all to leave comments and give me suggestions on important photography questions you’d like to have answered!

I hate a post without a picture, so I’ll leave you with one of my favorite “First Look” moments from Paula and Darrell’s wedding back in November!  I’ll be back home tomorrow afternoon and hopping right back to work on album and emails, so thanks for being patient with me!
