Do you listen to the Black Eyed Peas? You should. If you did, the title of this post may make some sense, but actually, I’m realizing that it doesn’t make sense at all, whether you’ve heard it or not.
But it’s still my theme for today. GOTTA GET GET. Because it makes me feel better.
I do very little self-promoting on my blog, so if you excuse me, I’m going to take a few minutes to do so because I can and because I’m excited and because this is my dream and I want to share it with anyone and everyone. (especially if you live in Northwest Indiana…)
Meet Erin. She is my friend and she is my client.
She is just one of the many people who have encouraged me to take photographs. Last fall, I launched Beth Fletcher Photography.
And here I am. It’s spring, I need to earn my keep around here (stolen tires, remember?) and this is how I’m going to do it.
I need to push this new business of mine, which is not easy for me. (why is that?) But I have to, seriously, I HAVE TO. So, I’m having a spring sale.
Get $50 off of your sitting fee, plus three FREE 8×10′s (total savings of over $100) if your session is booked and held prior to June 15, 2009.
Friends, this? Is a good deal. If you live in Northwest Indiana, click over and check it out…and if you know someone who may be interested, please feel free to pass along this information. I would be forever grateful. Seriously.
Isn’t she the cutest?
man I wish I could…you did an amazing job, you’re fabulous!
Those are sooo pretty!!
I wish I knew someone in Indana that could help you out..
But all I can do from my little desk at work is click your ads!
11 cents at a time baby!!!
How many ad clicks will it take for new tires??
oh.. shouldnt have done that math.. at 11 cents a click its going to take 4,546 click to buy new tires.. yikees..
Hope you get some photo shots!
These pictures are literally breathe taking! You keep promoting yourself! You have a true talent!!!

Ok, I feel incredibly stupid… “Breath taking” not “breathe”

You are going to rock it!! If I lived anywhere near you, I’d hire you in a heartbeat! Heck, if I’m ever even remotely in the area, I’ll be calling you up for some family stuff. Woohoo!! I’m so SO excited for you!!!!
I feel like you need a picture of what I look like right now, because then people would be like, Damn, she made her look THAT good? and hire you INSTANTLY.
But seriously, we’ve had photos done with a few other photographers in the area, and nothing we’ve done has come anywhere close to the beautiful memories that you created us for us this fall and for me this week. When I think back to how much you were able to get Luke to connect with you and the camera, I’m still amazed by it. You captured expressions that *I* can hardly get out of him!
We all knew you could do it and look at you go! I actually told Erin the other day how impressed I was that you as a photographer have grown so much in such a small period of time. You have blossomed, just as your Beth Fletcher Photography will.
ps
I’ll totally sign up for maternity shots and I’ll make Erin do my makeup!
These are just beautiful!! I love the one with the belly and feet. You have a great eye and a very creative editing taste! Keep it up, Lady!!
awesome shots. well done you!
What a beautiful Muse you have there! Love that blue dress on her! Good luck with your business, you are so talented Beth.
Your pictures are gorgeous!!
It IS a good deal! I am getting a lot more business around here, too (thank goodness!) You are so talented, and I know you will make it work!
Those are beautiful! Wish I could book you, but I’m kinda across the country. But best of luck!
What about southeastern Wisconsin?
Beautiful shots! Someday I hope to be where you are-a talented, funny, warm-hearted photographer/blogger. Keep it up!
I know Erin from Twitter. She’s so cute! Your photos are gorgeous.
That is an amazing deal. If I didn’t live so far away I would totally book my family.
Awesome pictures
whenever the day comes that i find myself knocked up again… i’m flying you to whereverthehell i live, and having you take my preg belly photos… because YOU. ARE. THAT. GOOD.
spectacular.
If we were near each other I’d hire you in a second!
Nell
Wow. Those are SO beautiful Beth. That blue dress was such a good choice on her part. It looks stunning on her. I love the neckline and the color and… wow! I have never had my picture professionally taken, unless you count senior pictures (which turned out lame). We had a courthouse wedding and didn’t have wedding pictures done or anything. And we’ve never done a family picture either. If we ever get pictures done, I will totally call you!
Mad skillz. Genius. Amazing. Perfection. Love.
Sooooo pretty. And inspiring. I want to get this good–or even close–some day.
Totally awesome girlie. As a photographer myself, it is hard to trust someone to take photos of us, if I was closer to you I would so pay you to take our photos-you do an amazing job@
She is the cutesy! And you are perfection. And I meant cutest but I’m commenting from my
iPhone and it won’t let me go back up there and correct…
Steph
Wow, you are a *great* photographer, so very talented! If I knew anyone up in your “neck of the woods” I would most certainly send them your way! Best of luck on this venture, and please keep posting your photos, they’re fantastic!
Ooops, sorry for the double comment, I meant to tell you that I love the Black Eyed Peas and the title of the post got me so excited to click through to my reader. Did you see them on American Idol this week? So not NEARLY as good without all of the sound effects.
You have a beautiful subject to photograph. And that glow!!! You’ve captured it perfectly
These are breathtaking, Beth. Seriously. I hope you can photograph my kids some day!
What beautiful pictures! (And congratulations to your friend)!!
Those are beautiful pictures…absolutely love the last one. Wishing I was closer to Indiana!
Gor. Geous.
I think your pictures are amazing, and I wish I knew someone who lived close enough to you! Heck, I wish I lived close enough because I would love to have a recent family photo shoot done! I will put a link to this page on my Facebook and you never know, maybe one of my 600 “friends” does live near you and I just don’t know it!
I wish I lived in Indiana so I could help! I am so sorry about your tires and your stress! I hope you have a nice Memorial Day weekend with your family!
Beautiful pictures! The colors are amazing and I love the idea of capturing this amazing time in her life. You are great!
These are wonderful pictures!
Yay for you. It is hard, I feel you, but you are doing it.
ANd dang it, We’re going to be in CHicago at the end of June…although a trip back to Indiana might be in the plans. I’m really thinking it could be fun to take my kidlins to West Lafayette, so they can see where mama went to school. There are some awesome places to shoot photos there. HMMMMM>…
Oh, and those shots are great.
Oh, I love photos of your kids! They are just the cutest, most beautiful children- seriously, I might just steal them when you’re not looking. I love the other photos too, I think the one with the “wishing puff”, the turtle and the red flowers should ALL go in your shop. If I had the money right now I would buy them, because I could totally see them on my wall! Love you!
dangit! I commented on the wrong post! Well, I think you can figure out what post I’m talking about LOL!
