Have a Senior Model Party!

So you're a Junior in high school, have a lot of friends, and love being in front of the camera.  Well do we ever have an opportunity for you!  Apply as a Senior Model on our website at www.asliceoflifeseniors.com (under "The 411" area) and if you're chosen, we'll do a free session with you and several of your friends.  Too good to be true?  Well as they say, there is no such thing as a free lunch.  But trust me, this is a deal that you wouldn't want to miss.

All we ask in return is that you bring along at least 3 of your friends and one parent to the viewing.  We supply munchies and the entertainment (a music slide show of the best images), and that's it.  It's a great way to introduce our services to your friends and family, and heck we always like entertaining people.

Make sure you note that you're interested in the group modeling session when you apply.  There are only a few openings available each year so this isn't open to everyone that applies.  Make sure you don't wait too long!

Time To Order Your Graduation Announcements!

Just a quick reminder that May is right around the corner and so is your child's graduation ceremony.  Don't wait until the last minute to order your graduation announcements, make an appointment soon with Heidi to customize an announcement that features some of the best images taken to send to family and friends.  Sure, the school offers generic cards that you need to spend extra money on for wallet inserts.  But for about the same money, you can create a one-of-a-kind card that you'll get compliments on for weeks!  You can see more design choices by visiting my website at www.asliceoflifeseniors.com and going to the RATES section.  Scroll down for a link to view "graduation announcement designs."

For more information or book an appointment, call Heidi at 760-739-9580.

Ashley Gilbert - Escondido High School

I was so happy to hear that one of my recent sessions, Kimberly Elliott, was a friend of Ashley and that she liked the photographs so much that she called me for her creative session.  Wanting a contemporary look, she booked the Grunge Session and we spent over two hours taking photographs around the alleys of Escondido, a train track, and also at Lake Hodges.  I discovered a really crazy colored wall over there recently and loved it for it's simplicity and bright color.  And there was even a newly painted "graffiti" wall in Downtown that we used too!  Here's a sample of some of Ashley's best images (click to view larger):

New Designs for Seniors!

Bored of the same old frame that holds only one photograph?  Looking for something fresh and new, something that stands out from everyone else's senior portraits?  Then look no more!

 

Heidi, at a Slice of Life Photography, loves graphic design and is always on the lookout for new and contemporary designs.  Her latest find includes three different collections that should look good with just about any session.  They come in 5x7, 8x8 and 12x12 sizes and Heidi can even do the framing for you too!  Let us know what you think.

Refer 3, Get 3 Free!

Seniors, have I got a great deal for you!  Refer 3 of your friends to A Slice of Life Photography that book sessions with us, you can get 3 duplicate 3x3" Accordian Albums with your favorite images from your session.  That's one for you, one for mom, and one for dad...or maybe one for you, one for your boyfriend/girlfriend and one for your favorite grandparent.  You decide!

The albums cannot be ordered until all 3 friends book their session and place a $250 minimum order.  You can choose from 10 different designs and these cool albums even have a magnetic closure on them!  They're too fun and can be carried easily in a purse or pocket.

Don't let this great opportunity pass you by!  Purchased, these three albums would normally cost you $275, so that's a pretty good investment for telling your friends about us.  And when you think A Slice of Life Photography can't get any better, we do!

Our Newest Session...Vintage Glory!

Probably by now you've noticed the latest fad has been all things "vintage."  Vintage items, vintage clothing, vintage finishes, etc.  It's a great look and lots of fun to photograph.  I spent some quality time on eBay and CraigsList finding some old cameras, an old suitcase and even an old looking bike with a basket in the front.  Awesome props for this type of session!

So when a high school senior named Melody had her mother call me to schedule her senior session at an apple orchard, my brain went into overdrive.  What a great opportunity for me to try out some of my ideas and see what happens.  We did a wardrobe consultation one week prior to the session and I had Melody bring along an outfit that just oozed vintage.  And my new "old" suitcase came along for the ride.  So enjoy this small excerpt from our fun session and let me know what you think!
