Finishing Up The Year

Hey all, just wanted to let you know we have closed the scheduling book on December and have begun booking for January 2009. We've been very busy the last couple months and just cannot fit anymore into our schedule, especially with the Holidays looming. Unfortunately for you, I need time to get Christmas shopping done, as Wendy is so hard to buy for because I don't have her "style skills"...lol

Check back often as we will be announcing some changes and of course, have some new promotions for the New year and of course, welcoming more new members into the Studio E Family.

Thanks for all your support, and we'll talk again soon!!

Beautiful Winter Morning

Hello all, sorry for the lack of posts, been a very crazy Holiday season already. Hope you didn't miss us too tremendously... ;)

I wanted to introduce to the family, Rhonda and John, with their "kids", Flynn (the big one) and Georgia (the little one). We enjoyed a brisk morning walk through the desert and had some fun watching the sun come up. Poor Flynn wanted to play ball and run around, while poor Georgia enjoyed her walk, right up till the point the "stickers" decided to latch into her fur. I think she enjoyed being carried the rest of the way though. :)




Please welcome them to the Studio E Family. We hope all of you enjoy your Holiday Season. I'll be back soon with some more news. As always, thanks for checking in and we'll talk again very soon.

Full of smiles....

Today we bring you Franky and Teresa, soon to be husband and wife. We shared an afternoon with them to take some fun engagement photos. They were full of smiles and laughter.... and believe me, when we asked for "serious" faces, it was pretty hard for them not to laugh. It's great to see couples that can share so much laughter with each other.





We wish you the best, many more smiles and look forward to being with you on your special day!!

Stay tuned for our Holiday Special.

Talk with you soon,

Dennis

He roped himself a good one....

We bring to you Jason and Kari, recently married in true western fashion. From the decor to the food, we experienced a great day with these two. Jason and Kari were a barrel of laughs to be around. They shared the day with many friends and family, making the day very special.


We were blessed with beautiful weather throughout the day, making for some beautiful images. Their wonderful smiles and laughter made our part easy. We want to wish the both of you well and welcome you to the Studio E Family!!

Congrats!!

Mr. & Mrs. Ward

So after all these contests and special galleries, we get back to our specialty.... taking fun images of our wonderful friends. We kick off this blog by reintroducing you to Jana and CW. Earlier this summer, we had the pleasure of joining them for a walk around downtown Las Cruces for their engagement session. We recently shared their wedding day at Binn's Winery. It was a perfect summer day. The venue was beautiful, the colors were popping, and the sunset was breath taking.

Jana and CW are a fun duo. You could tell as soon as their eyes met on that day, that they would be enjoying each other's company and laughter throughout the rest of their lives. Their family and friends enjoyed a beautiful ceremony. The evening was topped off with a traditional fraternity chorus (yes, a bunch of college dudes sang their hearts out) to bless Jana and CW.


We wish the two of you and your family, the best always, as you truly deserve it. We look forward to seeing you in the future!

Till next time,

Dennis

Caprina & Antonio

We were lucky to spend the day with Antonio and Caprina for their beautiful wedding ceremony. They tied the knot in Dona Ana and finished off the festivities at Dickerson's Barn. Early on, we blogged about these two following their engagement session. Their wedding was just as fun. Wendy and I enjoyed the celebration and enjoyed hanging out with their family and friends.

One of the best parts of the entire day, was watching Antonio do the Electric Slide. He sure has some dance moves!! They took off for San Diego for their Honeymoon, only to have a glitch in their fun, as they watched their beloved Dallas Cowboys lose to my San Diego Chargers. Sorry guys, hoped you enjoyed the rest of the scenery!!

We wish you two the best and look forward to running into you guys soon. Go Chargers!!

Studio E Family - Stay tuned, the next post I make will give out our details to win a free Family or Celebrity Session.

To close out for today, we wanted to offer a big congratulations to all the High Schools of Las Cruces, starting off their football seasons with a win. Way to go, Bulldawgs, Knights and Trojans!!

Along Came Molly...

Today we bring to you, Molly, a senior at Las Cruces High School. We had a great time with Molly during her session. We had the chance to watch her feet get nibbled on by fish in the pond, experience her big beautiful smile, and even received some great basil gardening tips from Mrs. Sak, Molly's Grandma. Mrs. Sak was very hospitable and gave us a tour of their lovely home. We also want to give a big "Thank You" to Molly's friend, Shelby, for all her help!!



Molly made our job easy and we look forward to seeing more of her in the future.


Seniors, please remember yearbook deadlines are fast approaching, so if you haven't scheduled your session, give us a call to schedule your Studio E experience!


Check back to our blog soon and we'll be announcing details for our next contest! It should be fun!!!


Thanks,


Dennis

We Present To You...

Mr. and Mrs. Cordova!

These two have spent many years together, weathered some of life's challenges, fought through them all and have grown stronger than many. Dennis and Vanessa are the perfect couple. It was fun to be around them during their wedding. The way they look at each other and instantly smile is infectious.


We wish you two the best of life. May you share many years of happiness, laughter and a few more of those "limo rides" you had between the ceremony and reception. Thank you for letting us be a part of your Special Day!

Boys Will Be Boys...

So we had the pleasure of taking photos at Dennis and Vanessa's beautiful wedding recently, and while looking through the images, we came across this one and we just couldn't wait to share it. The pretty little girl is admiring her Aunt and Uncle, while the little boys are showing how they feel about kissing.... ewwwwwww!!

Just a little something to bring a smile to your face!!

Congratulations to Dennis and Vanessa. Keep an eye out for some more Dennis and Vanessa "love" from Studio E.

Be back soon,

Congrats Julie & Scott!!

We had the pleasure of sharing Julie and Scott's special day and what a great time it was! Their wedding and reception took place in the beautiful Double Eagle restaurant located in the Mesilla Plaza. There was a small festival going on that day and it turned out to be a great time as we had some fun images using the surroundings. They demanded a lot of attention from the local gatherers as we walked the plaza for some pictures. It was a perfect day as not only did their family and friends offer the congratulations, so did the plaza!


Thanks again for having us!!

A Starr Is Born!

During our recent trip to Albuquerque, we were introduced to baby Winston Starr. He was such a good sport for his first photo shoot. We took some time to play around in his room, check out his "crib", and even learned about some of his Scottish heritage from his Grandma. And how could you resist his cute little chin!!

New Meaning to "MTV Cribs"!

Thanks to Winnie's Mom and Dad for helping out and introducing us to the little guy. We are happy to welcome him to the Studio E gang.

Be back soon!

Back In The Saddle!

Well hello again Friends. Sorry about the blog absence this week. I was a little under the weather, but I'm feeling better now and ready to get back to work.

We just came back from Jazz Night at Lorenzo's de Mesilla. What a wonderful evening! The band (Jimmy Olivas & Friends, with special guest Dora Reyes) was fantastic and the atmosphere and food was great. I believe they announced the next Jazz Night for August 23rd. It's a $10 cover to get in plus your meal. You can buy tickets for the event starting next week. If you like music, wine and great Italian food, stop by. Let them know Studio E sent ya!
Just wanted to remind you all we have the $50 off our sessions this month. If you haven't scheduled your session, know is the time as we are filling up fast. We'll be announcing our August special soon, so check back with us often.

I'll be posting a some new Friends this week on the blog, so be sure to stop by and welcome them to the gang! Take care everybody!

Fun Friday!!

Umm, yeah, so things got a little crazy in our spare time. My passion for "entertaining" had Wendy laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes. I'm glad she was able to hold the camera still enough to get these pictures.



Tell me which one is your favorite!! If I get enough response from this one, maybe I'll give you guys another show soon.... :>)

Enjoy your weekend and we'll talk again soon.

Time For A Drink....

Well CW & Jana, good things come to those who wait, and I think you've waited long enough!

We had a great time with these guys during their engagement session. We are lucky enough to share their special day of marriage this September and after the fun we had during this shoot, I'm expecting a great time at the wedding.

We spent the afternoon Downtown and captured these guys acting goofy, having fun (CW is a natural at the pouty lips), and showing why they are a cute couple. We did need to call them a cab though as they had a little too much lemonade. :)

We wish you guys the best and look forward to your wedding!

Seriously though, this was ALL Jana's idea...

If you want to see CW do the "pouty lips" in person, give him a call or stop by House of Grafix @ 2090 N. Solano. I'm sure he'd love to give you a demonstration! You can see some of his work at http://www.houseofgrafix.net/.

Thanks for visiting with us and we'll be back soon... I promise!

Happy Fourth Of July!

We just wanted to wish everyone a SAFE and Happy 4th of July. It was nice for mother nature to lend us a little water and then back off a bit for a great night to watch fireworks. Please remember, you'll look so much better in your portraits with all your fingers, so use caution when lighting fireworks!

Here's some fun we had with sparklers.

Visit us again soon,

Kori looked so good, we even took some shots right on her front porch!!
