Grange Craft Show - Results

2006-07-30T23:12:00.000-07:00

As we posted previously, this weekend we were at the Grange Community Center for their annual Craft Show. Our booth was across from a lady sellling jewelry, and her daughter befriended us. Another vendor was selling hats that this little girl was having fun modeling. We took this picture and love the way it turned out. We are currently in the process of pouring over the rest of the pictures we took and when we've finished you'll be able to see the rest of the pictures here. (We have omitted the names of all individuals for obvious reasons.)

The Best Lighting Explanation Ever

2006-07-15T23:57:00.000-07:00

Are you satisfied?

2006-06-11T22:03:00.000-07:00

At SK Photography, we understand that photographs are meant to be memories that last more than a lifetime. They are shared, cherished and often passed down from generation to generation. We want every photograph and album you receive from us to be one that you want to share. If you aren't happy with your pictures, they won't make very good memories. If you are happy or unhappy with your pictures for any reason, let us know. We will do everything we can to make it right. Leave a comment here for us and the whole world to see.
