Yikes…Hello 2009…

Yikes, I haven’t posted in awhile! Yikes, I have three or four posts to post! Yikes, it’s almost 2009!

…I’ll be here and there, sporadically checking my email throughout this week. Don’t fret, new site coming very soon!!! (yikes, my head hurts)
Did I mention I’m going to AZ in two weeks to with some great photog friends of mine?! I’ll be attending the Digital Wedding Forum’s 2009 Convention. I’ll be painting photographs with light at night in the desert!! Just a couple of cool things I have in store for this year. I can’t wait to take classes for 5 days straight and re energize my shooting, vision and skills.

2009 is looking pretty good (we’re still open with 2009 dates)!

THANKS FOR MAKING 2008 AWESOME!!!! I couldn’t do it without you.

Keep rockin. XOXO Krisha

Suite 1002 Opening Sucess!

I can’t thank everyone enough for all of your love and support we were shown last Thursday, during our opening. The wine was flowing, good conversations were flowing and we all got a little teary eyed!  I’ve been holding off on posting images so I can collect them from the various cameras that were seen floating around. I’ve received some but I know there are more images out there. I didn’t take any of the following, family did. If you’ve got images please send a copy my way and I can post them.

Without further ado…………..our new studio Suite 1002……

Allen and I are active Lancaster Chamber Members. Below, L-R Chamber President, Tom Baldridge, Allen Clements, Krisha Martzall and Kirby Martzall

It’s official!

Me ( I always carry around scissors) Joe Krzemienski, The Fictory and Allen Clements, Otaku Motion.

Even the littlest of clients came!

Filling out our business drawing. Winners will be announced soon.

Muffin Street Cafe, what more can I say (didn’t mean to rhyme) Eric keeps up very nourished!  Satisfying the cravings of Suite 1002 every time!

Break for a 5 min toast.

How did these two get in here?! Sneaky sneaky girls. Thanks for the coffee gifts!

klm Photography article

Thanks to the Lancaster Post for making me their July artist interview of the month.

Click here to gain the insider’s scoop on me!

One correction I took college classes at the Art Institute of Philadelphia and graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I never attend the Philadelphia College of Art.

Happenings

I know, I know I’m behind on postings! With good reasons I might add.

So here’s the scoop: We are fully moved into our studio/office!!! So cool, you must stop down. We’re located in Central Market Mall, 45 N. Market Suite 1002. I’m right in between A Space to Grow and the Lancaster Quilt Museum. Of course we’re down from Central Market! I’ve teamed up with Allen Clements of Otaku Motion and Joe Krzemienski of The Fictory. They are really cool guys. Allen works his magic with Videography and Joe creates some kick arse web designs. Watch out now! We intend to collaborate synergistically to accomplish so much more than we did individually. We’ll be announcing our official opening parties in the upcoming months.

We have a new business number: 717.824.3350. Please add this number to your address books.

Looking for new images?? I’ll be posting some images of a wedding I shot while teaming up with Heather Johnson, HAJ Photography. New fun boudoir shots are coming too. Oh right, studio images as well.

Best,

Krisha

Wedding dates

Hey lovely ladies (and gents too) I have open dates for Oct-December 08! We just booked another November date with the uber-cool Faith and Luc (grooms from France!!). Contact me krisha@krishamartzall.com or 717-808-5503 and we can personalize a package for you.

I’ve got a list of shot ideas and locations in my head that I must shoot so if your looking for an engagement, bridal or post bridal session call me as well! The artist is starting to scream inside to get out, lol.

I’m posting another dog session pics later today. We’ve also got some special announcements AND information on a call for NILMDTS photographer volunteer meeting.

It’s gonna be a awesome Thursday.

klm Photography + NILMDTS

I’m a active member/volunteer for Now I lay Me Down To Sleep. I offer infant bereavement photography on a volunteer basis. It’s a organization I hold near to my heart. Not from personal experience but more from honoring life and creating keepsake moments for parents. Check out the link to learn more about NOW.

Last week I was contacted by Susan Jurgelski of the Lancaster New Era about my services. She was writing a piece for the New Era Lifestyle section, publishing today, Monday June 2nd. Susan interviewed me and other local photographers involved in Now. Friday we had a photo shoot for the article. So weird to be on the other side of the lens!!

The article turned out great! Please check it out (click here). We are having a call for volunteer meeting on June 23rd 7:00pm at my new studio in Central Market Mall, 46 N. Market Suite 1002. Please contact me if your planning on attending.

Also please note my email address listed in the article is old. Please send all inquiries to Krisha@krishamartzall.com

Thanks~

Thanks for coming to see me at artwalk! I really appreciated everyone’s support and enjoyed meeting new people. Looking forward to booking your animal, family or individual life portrait

Moments: Found, Prompted and Posed

Earlier this week I attended a workshop by Joel and Rita of The Wiebners. They are a fantastic pair of wedding photographers. Their talent shines on the inside and out! I truly walked away from their workshop ready to start my 2008 shooting year. I’m excited, rejuvenated, awake and alive! I personally believe it’s important to continue your professional education no matter what your career is. This can only create a better service for my clients. Good things are happening. I can feel the positive energy all around.

Here are some of my favorite shots from our shoot exercise. I’m in love and I hope you are too…

Everyday we are gaining more and more clients and we are sooooo excited and anxious to get rolling! I am about to shoot my second wedding of the year with Todd Spitler of Todd spitler photography.Todd and I have known eachother for five years maybe more and we are finally getting to collaborate and work together shooting weddings. Things went so well during our first wedding three weeks ago, Todd booked me for three more dates to add to my schedule! I’ll have to post some images from the wedding.

I’ve been collaborating with a wonderful designer named Anne Kirby from Hunter Kirby Design. You must check out her work! We just wrapped up a shoot right before the holiday weekend for the

I’ll post the final save the date card design once approved. There are some wonderful women striving and growing each day living through the Milagro House. Their growth and personal stories are amazing.

Reminder: the Photoshop CS3 book comes out this month! That’s the book I’ll be published in. I’ll send out more info and details on the book when I hear. Gotta check it out.

Love to all~
