On this 4th of July holiday edition of Jackpot Party Monday, we’re giving away a copy of the book “Family Photography” by Christie Mumm! Here’s a little description of the book:
“Going beyond how to capture memorable family photos, this examination spotlights the special touches and relationship-building skills that turn subjects from clients into friends. Christie’s signature techniques for generating repeat business are shared, revealing how to remain a family’s constant photographer for years–from maternity portraits and baby photos to wedding images and senior snapshots. Specific suggestions are featured, including reaching out through social networking sites, blogging, and hosting special parties and events. Offering a comprehensive approach to building a successful portrait business, this handbook demonstrates how relationships with subjects are just as important as the pictures created for them.”
Whether you’re a seasoned photographer, or a mommy who’s found a passion for photography and are interested in making a career of it, this book has a wealth of knowledge for you to gain!

We saw the new Transformers movie and came home to BBQ, play with sparklers and watch all the fireworks from our back deck. Hope you had a great 4th too!
We went 4-wheeling up in the mountains over Colorado Springs and Monument then came home in time to watch the fireworks!
We spent the day at the lake with family & friends, ending the evening with an awesome fireworks show courtesy of the marina campground visitors.
I sat on a deck overlooking Broomfield, Louisville and Boulder surrounded by the people that I love the most in this world. The horizon was littered with colorful explosions as we sat and ate homemade brownies, drank cold milk from frosted pint glasses and toasted marshmellows over an open flame for our Peanut Butter cup Smores. I even had time to do some extended exposure shots of fireworks.
Unfortunately our 3yr old had the flu but we were able to watch the city fireworks right from our front porch
I rode my bike up to Jamestown and then up and over Lee Hill. Then I took my two kids to Gold Hill Inn for BBQ chicken and blue grass music.
Whoohoo… love your giveaways! We went to a parade, played with friends and cousins, went to the carnival, roasted our butts off in the 100 degree weather, took naps, ate dinner at Chili’s, watched fireworks and then sat in firework traffic until 11pm! It was a great day! : ) You gotta know that I would love this session… every photographer needs to be out from behind the camera once and a while! ; ) Passing this on to my friends! Thanks Keri!
