Its Almost SUMMER!

I just looked at my children's school calendar.  I can't believe there is only 3 1/2 more weeks until we can finally turn the alarm clock off!  When we first moved to Atwater 3 years ago, I was very concerned about the school the kids were suppose to go to.  I had heard some not so good things about it and wasn't quite sure what to do.  After I had talked to a teacher in the district from church, she eased my mind a bit and we decided to just give it a try.  If it didn't work after a year, we'd consider charter school.  Well, to my utmost relief, my children have been blessed with the most wonderful teachers and Principal you could ever imagine!  So, while I'm glad to be almost done with another school year, I am a little sad that their time with the teachers they have now is almost over as well.

First Day of School!

So, THANK YOU to all of you teachers out there who make a difference in your students' lives!

Miss P.

Miss P. was a little Pistol yesterday!  At least that's what Grandma kept saying!  She wanted what she wanted and when she wanted it!  There was no convincing this new little one that she wanted to sleep and be cooperative.  We captured a few great shots of her and I look forward to seeing her again in a few months.

New Year: New Giveway

Time for a GIVEAWAY!

Its a new year, its time for new portraits!  I hear from people all the time that tell me its been years since their last family portrait.  I've even had some people tell me that they haven't had a family portrait since before their youngest was born...their youngest was turning 11 the next week!  A new year is a good excuse for a new portrait.  Weather it be a formal event or a fun and casual  session, its time to get a current portrait of the people you love!

I'm giving away one custom portrait session and an 11x14 wall portrait to one lucky random winner.   

The session can be used for children, family, or engagement portraits.
Session is for 8 people or less, additional people may be added for a fee.
Session offer expires June 1, 2013

bonus: If the Diane Conn Photography fan page reaches 625 or more fans by the end of the giveaway, I'll give away a second prize to a randomly selected fan.  So make sure you suggest to your friends to "like" Diane Conn Photography on facebook.

Kyla - 2 weeks

Kyla's mother and I go way back! I won her over with my extra cute posters I made when I was running for class treasurer in junior high. Really, who could blame her? Those posters were awesome! Airbrushed rainbows and pots of gold; I seriously don't know why I didn't win! But anyway... I had the absolute pleasure of going out to the California Bay Area to photograph this gorgeous little Kyla and her beautiful parents! I can't wait to do it again!

P.S. Fun Fact- In high school, Ginna (that's Kyla's mom) started calling me the "Ultimate Mother-Woman" after the character Sally in Of Human Bondage, by Somerset Maugham....now she calls me "The Baby Whisperer".
