    Well, it’s been OVER a months since I posted. I know, that’s quite unusual but the truth is,  the past 6 weeks have been too! Three dear friends decided to get married within the same five weeks! For Kristen’s wedding I was a second shooter and a number 2 in both Angi and Jenna’s weddings. I love them all dearly and, as those of you whose weddings I’ve had the pleasure of working know, I can’t do anything halfway. I also celebrated my 25th birthday, was asked to return to teach at Liberty & recaptured newlywed spirit with my wonderfully talented husband. I was able to keep our Fan Page updated regularly so some of this won’t be news to any of you who are already fans but we’ve got some AMAZING sessions coming up on this blog! Here are previews of the beauty to come!

    S. Carter Studios Platinum Photo Booth: Angi’s Shower from sabrena deal on Vimeo.

    There is just something about hopping into the car on a special evening that BEGS me to pop out my pocket camera and commemorate the moment. Car pictures! I get the eye rolling from almost everyone, ALMOST. There is one person who very rarely gives me the eye roll and that is my little sister. To me her name is Boo Boo, but on the birth certificate it says Rebecca. She is my number one fan, cheerleader, Harry Potter buddy, smarter half & favorite. This is the month of her 20th birthday and so for the month of July we’re going to offer a 20% discount on any photo booth booked in the next 31 days for Fall of 2010. It’s not just car pictures she’s taken with me but literally thousands of silly photos including some from the photo booth at  my wedding and at Angi’s bridal shower. So it seems appropriate to honor her birthday with something we love doing together so much!

    You may be asking yourself:

    What kind of event would could benefit from a photo booth?

    Weddings, engagement parties, baby showers, halloween parties, fundraisers, sorority/fraternity parties, family reunions, birthday parties, company picnics, labor day get together, pretty much any event where the people you love will all be in one place and you’d love to have photos of them doing their crazy things.

    March 11th, 2010sabrenaPhoto Booth, Take A Look

    Well, happy Thursday! I am excited, even more than usual to share with you today’s Take A Look. It’s about US! We’re officially ready to roll with our signature Photo Booth photography and have some great photos to share with you from the first two events we did with the whole set up. Which is quite a load really! Enjoy some photos and we’ll fill you in on the details!

    First: Harner Family Photos. The Harners are a wonderful, eclectic family that we know from our church. This is actually a follow up to our 3 year anniversary give away. Preston (mom) entered to win and had to wait 10 months until her whole family could gather in one location. I’m so thankful they waited so we could customize this family shoot for them! Here are a few teasers and the slideshow to accompany them!

    S. Carter Stuios booth 3

    This is Beth. We’ve been friends for six years, which if you know me, is pretty impressive because I moved a bazillion times in my life making it difficult to keep friends for longer than a few years. She was a wonderful source of inspiration for my wedding and she’s all around great friend to have. She recently moved to NY for a job opportunity and we thought it would be a great idea to try out version 1.0 of our photo booth. Our signature photo booth is a new launch for 2010 and we’re excited about bringing an opportunity to our brides to capture their guests as crazy as they actually are! The booth will also be available for parties! Contact us for more info! In the mean time, enjoy some photos from Beth’s booth.

    I cannot take credit for the props, they were Josh’s idea mostly, with some help from Ashley’s musical storage! Here is a picture of me (well, my arm) and my loving husband. He’s the best.
