I am running a special exclusively on FACEBOOK for the next two weeks. www.facebook.com Just look up Kirk Pullen Photography in the search bar. Here is the special:

100% FREE! I am extending this offer to not just the first senior, but the first male and female seniors who contact me. You will receive a free photoshoot, facebook profile picture and 8 x 10 print. What's the catch? There is no catch! All I ask is that you tell your friends about Kirk Pullen Photography and be my personal business advertisement. If interested, you can email me at kirkpullenphotography@embarqmail.com to book your photo session.

I have a studio here in Warsaw, North Carolina for the photo session. There is also the option of taking the photos outdoors if that is preferred.

New Look New Attitude

I spent quite a good bit of my Saturday trying to come up with a logo for my business that I was happy with. I've never really been happy with the purple version you see here. The purple version has been up for two years now and I am really stoked to say goodbye to it.

Bring on the NEW BLUE! I really like how simple it is and it even has a dotted "I" on my name that looks like the lens of a camera.

You can see all the logos that I have used in the past for the website and even the other versions that didn't quite make the cut too. Some of them are too colorful and Super cheesey huh? What was I thinking?

More Dance

I have been inspired by renowned wedding photographer Jasmine Star to start blogging everyday. jasminestarblog.com She is one of the top ten wedding photographers in the nation and I look forward to attending a workshop she is giving in August.
With that said, here are some more studio shots of my daughter dancing in the studio. She has been getting her dance lessons from the Arts Company in Faison, NC. She really gets excited about going every week.

Ballerina

I had time to get a 20 minute dance photo session with my daughter yesterday. We cranked up the music in the studio and let her do her thing. She has been taking dance class for the past year and I can totally see that she has been trained in it. She definitely did not get her moves from her old man!

Portraits

I took the time to do a second round of edits with a few portrait shots of a model I worked with a few months ago. I submitted it to Samsung of America's website and ended up getting a hot pick of the week.

I do have a studio here in Warsaw, NC that I use for portraits. We are running a special now of NO SITTING FEE and only a thirty dollar minimum print purchase. If you are interested you can email or call me for current portrait prices.

Todd and Lindsey

I was in Frisco, North Carolina this week for a wedding on the shores of the Pamlico Sound. Todd and Lindsey were staying in a fantastic house called the Love Boat, which is of course shaped in some ways like a ship. Even though it was a little hot, I was pleased with the fact that the wind was calm. Many couples rush off to the reception after the marriage ceremony, so it was rewarding to work with a couple who values wedding photography.

Pool Party

My son's birthday is this weekend and I wanted to put together a creative invitation for the party. It took several hours of work in photoshop.

I also had the opportunity to shoot the Spring Fling Dance at the school I work at in Faison, North Carolina. We had a great time and the students took some great pictures! I was able to test out the new purple and pink muslin, which just happened to go along with the color theme for the dance. What luck!
