Back to school mini shoot

Are you looking for something a little different than the plain-ole-boring-back-to-school-photos, with a fake boring background and a fake smile?

Then sign up for my Back to School Mini Sessions!

Mini sessions will be conducted at a specific location and are 10-15 minutes in length.

For $25 you will get several poses of each child and files to print them however you like up to an 8 x 10!

How do I sign up?

Email me, Tricia, at bastianphotography@gmail.com.  Please indicate the number of children, ages and if they are a boy or girl.

When Will I receive my CD?

Please allow at least 1-2 weeks for editing.  Your CD will then be mailed to you to the address you provided on an information slip that will be filled out at the time of your mini session.

What to wear?

Select clothing that has color pop and are vibrant and fun!  Choose colors that are deep, rich and intense.  Use patterns, textures and layers to add visual interest.  Textured fabrics such as dark denim photography beautifully.  Layers can be added and removed to create different looks in minimal time.  Most importantly, I want everyone to be casual and comfortable in their attire.  Children photograph best when they feel GREAT in their outfits.

What to bring?

I will bring the props such as the desk, chair or stool to sit on.  The school desk works best for children ages 3-8, older children are best photographed in a more natural setting.

When to arrive?

ON TIME of course!  Please don't be late as this will put us behind schedule and your session time will be cut short.  Please plan to arrive a few minutes early.

Don't wait to sign up!  Spots are limited!

Logan Temple

During my trip last September we stopped in Logan to see the Logan Temple.  This temple is up on a hill and over looks Cache Valley.  

This temple took 7 years to build.  It was built during the same time the 

Salt Lake Temple was built.

To learn more about this temple click here.

This is my favorite picture of all.  The way the sun was hitting the top.  I loved it!  I so wish we could have spent more time there.

Salt Lake Temple

As part of my101 project, I wanted to take pictures of all the temples in Utah.  So to start off, here is the Salt Lake Temple.  It took 40 years to build this temple.  I think it is so beautiful!

If you are interested in purchasing any temple pictures that I have taken, contact me via email at bastianphotos@gmail.com

I would love to know what you think about these photos or how I could improve.  Leave a comment on my blog letting me know what you think.

Project 52-Week 1 Black & White

This is the beginning, again, of my Project 52.

I had to start over for too many reason to list here.

Katie, looking out the window.  I love the serene look on her face.

Brice & Shauna Wedding

I was so excited to share this special day with Shauna and Brice. They are perfect for each other. They laugh, have fun and are so in love.
This was my first wedding and I admit I was really nervous. I didn't want to miss anything. I love how these few photos turned out.

Project 52 - Week 3: Eyes

Week 3:
Eyes

I love my new lens. I have a 70-200, 2.8. It takes amazing pictures.

Project 52 - Week 2

Week 2: Reflection

I have been picking Brad up from work all week and every day I saw this reflection of the tree, sun and mountains in his windows. I loved the way it looked so I finally remembered to take my camera with me and was able to capture it. I love how there is a little sun flare in the photo.

Project 52 - Week 1

On my 101 list, I have a goal of a 52 week project. To take a photo a week, post on the blog. Brad sets the themes for me for each week.

Here is the photo for week 1: Shadow

I saw this idea on pinterest and wanted to try it. I think it turned out very nicely.

Olson Family ~ Colorado Springs Family Photographer

This family is FANTASTIC! They are cute, have great smiles and are so nice. I don't feel I performed my best ability so I asked if I could take their pictures again and they agreed. Luckily we were able to catch these photos before the snow began. It was a chilly evening but they were definite troopers.

Look at that cute mama....I can't wait to meet their new little one :)
I love the way Scott is looking at Lani. Priceless!

Thank you for letting me capture your memories.

Water Drop

I have decided to take a photography class so I can learn more about my camera and improve my photos. This is one of my first assignments. It was to capture motion freeze. With Brad's help we tried to capture a water drop. I think it turned out GREAT!

Miss Emma

Miss Emma is so cute! She doesn't like to smile in photos so we worked really hard, okay not really hard, but we did get her to smile. I think she has a beautiful smile!

Justin ~ Colorado Springs Senior Photographer

Meet Justin. This guy is amazing! He is smart and an amazing football player. He is being highly recruited by a lot of teams. He is really hoping for Stanford. We will keep our fingers crossed. Good Luck this year!

Best Friends ~ Colorado Springs Photographer

Look at how cute these girls are. They always have a smile on their face! I love being around them because they help me want to be a better person. They are kind, generous and love to help others. My kiddos LOVE LOVE LOVE these girls.

Cromar Family

This is a fantastic family. They are nice and kind and very talented. Stephanie is going to beauty school so if anyone in the Colorado Springs area is looking for someone to do their hair, she is the girl to call.

Their kids are so dang cute. We had a great time at this photo shoot. I tried something new...I set up the back drop in my back yard. It seemed to work great!
