Senior Rep Program {2011)

Okay, here's the skinny on the 2011 Senior Rep Program.....click on the "SENIOR REP APPLICATION" link in the bar up there. Once you have filled out the application, email me 2 current pictures of you. I want pictures that YOU feel best show me your style. Please don't include anyone else in the pictures.
***Please remember to add your name in the email when you submit the pictures. ***

This “job” doesn’t require a huge commitment on your part but you must be willing to show off your photos and let fellow students know about Sheryl Dagenais Photography. There are additional rewards for any future sessions booked by your school friends and classmates. These senior sessions are not all about sitting and posing or capturing that “fake” smile, it’s about capturing you…what’s different about you. What makes…YOU! The truest expression are candid ones. With this session, we will spend approximately 2-3 hours together at different locations. You may have 2-3 wardrobe changes. These sessions are all about you and what you are into and all about. Suggestions would be to incorporate your sports, activities, hobbies, etc into your session. Bring several changes of clothing for a variety of looks.


Not sure if you want to apply for the program? Well, let me give you some of the details on what you will get out of this dealio Ü

The composition of this picture was phenominal, it just needed a bit'o color pop, and I creamified (yeah, I know it's not a word) her skin. Happy Friday my blogger peeps Ü

How do you tattoo?

So, I'm in the shower getting ready for work, and I hear my 5 year old walk in and ask, "Mommy, can put on a tattoo?". "Sure", I say, "just wait til I'm out of the shower and I'll help you." "I can do it." I hear back. Not feeling like arguing, I tell her to get me a new washcloth so I can get one wet for her. I also ask her to PLEASE bring it back into the the bathroom when she is done, so it doesn't get left to mold on the floor somewhere in the house! I finish my shower and am actually out for quite sometime, when I realize Teigie did not bring me the washcloth. So, I yell to her, and ask her to bring me the wash rag, and her response is, "but I'm not done yet" UH OH! She came into the bathroom about 25 minutes ago asking for A, 1, SINGULAR tattoo, and 25 minutes later she isn't finished. She brings me the washcloth a few minutes later, bursting with pride to show me these.....


Oh, my teigi poo!!!! I♥U!

Inspired?

Who have I inspired? I'd like to think I've inspired each and every person who's ever gotten to know me, all of the families who I've captured memories for, my family and my friends, but let's face it, sometimes, most times, people don't take the time to say, "hey, you know what you said the other day, it really inspired me." It would be nice if they did, if we all did. I try to inspire my family each and every day, through pictures, music, books, and of course all the girly girl talks we share.
I would like to tell you about all of the mentors I've met and classes I've taken, but I can't. I'm a self taught photog on the beginning of this wild ride. I have learned so much from other photography blogs, those just starting out and the "seasoned" pros. I am inspired each day by the images I see, bright colors, composition, bokeh...oh how I love some bokeh. This is just the beginning of my wonderful journey, and I know I have so very much more to learn. I try to inspire through my words, and my pictures. Basically just by being me! I am a glass half full kind of gal, who always seems to be daydreaming, singing too loudy (and out of key ;) I'm the one who laughs so loudly people stop and stare. Ya know what? That's okay!


There are going to be about a gazillion :) other entries for this AWESOMELY DELICIOUS give away, click this button to read other inspiring stories...

ALWAYS making some crazy face, or giving the super cheese crooked grin. Thanks little B your a STAR!!









And last but not least my other BFF's teeny weeny bundle, Camryn, I'm not sure what I said or did to make her frown like this, but I will certainly try NOT to do it again :)
