Featured - Kireei: Cosas Bellas

My work was recently featured on Kireei: Cosas Bellas, a Spanish blog, a few weeks ago! I've been so busy with work, classes, and everything in between that I haven't had a chance to blog about it! Thank you so much to Kireei and all of you for supporting me! Click HERE to see the post. Sending hugs & love to my snow covered friends in Maryland, Virginia, and DC! Muchos besos!

Emily & Andrew's Wedding

Last Saturday, Emily and Andrew tied the knot in a gorgeous ceremony at the George Washington Masonic Monument in Alexandria, VA. The monument was the perfect backdrop for these love birds to celebrate their marriage with friends and family. I had the fabulous Vida Carson as my second shooter and we both agreed that our first wedding of 2010 couldn't have been any better! Congratulations Andrew and Emily! :)

Because Andrew is from the UK, there were a lot of family members and friends that could not make the trip to Washington DC. Emily put together a collection of video clips from Andrew's loved ones congratulating them and sharing words of support. It was my absolute favorite part of the night!

Andrew took Emily to the observation deck of the monument and had his brother light flares i the shape of a heart on the ground below. It was such a gorgeous view and a perfect way to end the night!

Emily & Andrew's Wedding Sneak Peek

I have been dying to blog my first wedding of 2010, but am having the hardest time narrowing down images from that amazing day! A full post will go up on Friday, but here is a little sneak peek for now! :) Enjoy!

Super Senior Session

Yesterday I had the largest group session of high school seniors that I have ever photographed and had the most incredible time! With another fabulous wind advisory and temperatures that felt like 11 degrees, we took turns shooting and warming up around Annapolis coffee shops. This was the perfect shoot to start off with for 2010 and I'm excited to show you a small peek from their session! Enjoy!

I was extremely blessed to have my good friend Mia of Amelia Katz Photography come along to photograph the session! She capture this shot of me in action & I love it! Check out her blog post!

Welcome 2010

I want to wish all of you a very Happy New Year! :) There are so many wonderful things to look forward to in 2010. Natalie Franke Photography will be getting a new website (YAY!) that is expected to launch by the middle of this month. There will be new pricing going into effect as of the website's launch [this will not effect my senior & family sessions; wedding packages will see a change]. I will also be offering special opportunities and discounts to all members of the Natalie Franke Photography Facebook Group this year, so remember to join if you haven't already!

Also, I am currently opening an online store where you can purchase my art on canvas or in framed prints! I'll let you know when its up and running!

I hope everyone is having a great start to the new year and the new decade! :) May 2010 bring you hope, happiness, and joy.
