2012 HOLIDAY MINI SESSIONS | ELISE

 

I am so excited to introduce an amazing photographer to you, Elise. Elise has been with my studio for over a year and a half and is a HUGE part of the reason I can do what I do. She is my right hand girl and has helped me so much these last years. She has also been training super hard to become a Kimberly Jarman Photographer and is doing quite amazing. She has been helping out with weddings and getting some amazing shots and also doing portraits on the side. I’m so proud of this girl and so excited for the opportunity that I’m about to share with you all!

My fall filled up VERY quickly this year for portrait sessions and I only actually have 2 more slots available through now until November to shoot portrait sessions (if you still need a session from me for Christmas cards make sure you contact the studio ASAP as they won’t last long), so this year I will not be able to do mini sessions, which is something that I have done in the past. I really wanted to be able to offer mini sessions to all of you who really like the idea of a mini session for Christmas cards, so I asked Elise if she would like to be our mini session girl this fall. She agreed!!!

As I said, Elise is an amazing photographer, still in the training stages, but showing me some killer stuff, so we are going to offer a really great deal on sessions with her so that 1) you can get some great pictures and 2) she can get some more experience. That being said, please read below in order to gather more information about mini sessions, Elise, and what to expect! You won’t be disappointed!!!

With these images you can create Holiday Cards, Gift Prints for family and friends, or even albums for family and friends. The possibilities are endless.

We have already filled up most of our schedule this fall so we are only able to have 1 day where we are offering mini sessions: Saturday, October 13th. Each session must be paid in full when booked and there are no refunds if you can’t make it.

THE THYE FAMILY | SAN DIEGO FAMILY PORTRAIT SESSION

Every once in awhile God puts someone in your life who you know will be a true friend through it all and you are blessed and thankful every time you think of that person. Well one of those people for me is the amazing Jenni Thye. Over the last 4-5 years Jenni has become such an important part of my life, not only in my profession but personally. If you don’t know Jenni, you should. She is the owner of Imoni Events, a wedding & event planning business in the Phoenix Metro area. She is PHENOMENAL at her job and truly one of the best in the valley and I would even say the country. On top of her business she is an amazing mommy & wife.

This summer I got to spend some time with the Thye family in San Diego. We went out there because both of our husbands were running the San Diego Rock and Roll 1/2 Marathon. We decided to make a little vacation out of it and also to get some family pictures. Jamie & I spent a day scouting out the area that I wanted to shoot the pictures and I found some of the most beautiful locations. I have been so excited to show you all these images, because they just make me happy and smile. The location was perfect, the day was perfect, and the people were perfect.

I’m thinking that next year i’m going to open up these type of sessions to more people so that everyone can enjoy a little San Diego prettiness, so if you are interested shoot me over an email, because the more interest I get the more it will happen.

Until then, enjoy these amazing images from the Thye Family!!

She’s edgy, fun, and likes to think outside of the box. You will get images that stand out from other photographers because of the way she see’s things through a camera.Kimberly Jarman is not your typical photographer.

Zumba | A few of my favorite things

 

About 6 months ago I started hearing the buzz about Zumba. I know it’s been out for quite some time, but it was about 6 months ago that everyone I knew was talking about their love for Zumba. Now, i’m not a dancer… yes, I like to think I am sometimes, but when I catch myself in the mirror I realize quickly that i’m not. However, my friends were telling me how much fun it was, how silly but amazing they felt, and the kicker… how many calories they were burning in one class. I was intrigued.

In July I decided I wanted a healthier me. I wanted to loose the weight that has slowly but surely attached itself to me every year since I’ve  been married and also the weight of my wonderful and amazing daughter. It just never seems to leave me. I wanted to find time to exercise, but do something that I enjoy and not the mundane running on a treadmill. So, I decided to try a zumba class with my sister. I LOVED it! I checked it out at my gym and found some amazing Zumba instructors and some not so amazing instructors, but overall I was hooked.

Since July i’ve lost 15 pounds, a combination of working out & eating healthy. The working out has been a combination of running, volleyball, walking, & Zumba. While I don’t always have time for an hour Zumba class, I try to go to as many as possible and always leave smiling and feeling healthy.

So, for today’s favorite Friday I thought I would just share…. you should try it if you haven’t, it is pretty awesome if you ask me!!

Let’s ZUMBA!!!
