The August Special

So, for those who aren't fans on my "families, etc." fan page (Ashley Durham Photography) you probably haven't heard the news: I'm celebrating the month of August. Why? Because I've officially been in business for a year. What better what to "sale"abrate that ... then to offer my clients one heck of a deal?

So ... for The Secret Pin-Up ONLY ... anyone who books a FULL SESSION for anytime for the rest of 2011 will receive a complimentary bound book of their session - a $75 value!

Fine print: Offer period Aug 1-31, 2011. Session does NOT have to be in August, but must be booked during the month of August. Session can be anytime in 2011. 50% non-refundable deposit is required to hold the booking slot. Hair & Makeup is available at client's request at an additional charge, please email me at AshleyDurhamPhotography@gm​ail.com with questions or to book your session! ♥

Rock the Shot

Rock the Shot is hosting a Silhouette contest ... and I'm submitting this image!

This is a shot I took of my very best friend in the whole world out in the middle of the desert. This is mostly SOOC, but there is some PP done using Pure Photoshop Actions. I used my 50mm F/1.4 lens on my Nikon D90, and it was shot at 1/2500 @ F/16, ISO 250.

Wish me luck!

Holy moly, what a steal.... I mean deal!

For those who are not fans on my Facebook fan page, you guys don't know this yet ... so, I thought I'd share it on my blog!

August is my business birthday month for the families/children/seniors/etc. side of my business ... and even though I just branched off boudoir and pin-up photography a few months ago, I feel like celebrating ... or should I say, SALEabrating??

For the Secret Pin-Up ONLY ... anyone who books a FULL SESSION for anytime during 2011 will receive a complimentary beautifully bound book of their session - a $75 value!! Holler!

How do you take advantage of this killer steal deal? Call/email me in the month of August to book your session for any time in 2011 (the session does NOT have to be in August) and pay your 50% deposit before August 31st and BAM! That's it!

There are two full session prices - $175 (one hour, 2-3 outfit changes, $50 in print credit as well as 15 images on CD) and $225 (two hours, 4-6 outfit changes, $75 in print credit as well as 20 images on CD).

And no - Pillow Parties do not count as full sessions because they are minis! :)

Take advantage of this red hot deal while you can!

Love me? Refer a friend!

This is essentially the same post and offer from my family photography business - Ashley Durham Photography - but wanted to make sure my boudoir and pin-up clients know this offer extends to them as well!

Everyone knows that word of mouth is best way to get news around ... be it through actual talking or sharing online. I know that whenever I want to know the latest and greatest, I'll pop online (Facebook, People, EOnline, The Colorado Gazette, etc.) and learn all kinds of new things - including vendors and businesses!


So why am I rambling here? Because I want to introduce the ADP Referral Program.


Whenever I meet with new clients, I always like to ask them how they learned about me and became interested in booking a session with me - did you see my work on Facebook? Did a co-worker tell you about me? Or did you just flat out Google "awesome Colorado Springs family photographer" and my name popped up?


So here's the deal ... When you book a session with me, I like to make sure you have a great time. It's not just an hour or two out of our lives together, you're investing in an experience with me and I want to make sure it's the best experience it can be, and I want you to tell you friends, family, coworkers and random strangers that you came to me and had a GREAT experience.


And when that new client comes my way and says, "so-and-so  referred me" ... guess what? You get rewarded! For every single client you refer to me that books a full session with me (any kind of full session - kids, family, weddings, senior - you name it), you get an additional $10 in print credit good toward any current or future sessions with me. The best part? There is absolutely no limit. You could earn as much print credit as you want!

Pretty awesome, huh?

So ... what are you waiting for? Refer away!

Miss Stephanie

Miss Stephanie came in to the studio with Miss Sabreena back in June, and she absolutely rocked the hell out of this shoot. She was so excited and pumped, I loved it! Glamorous by Jutone Rene was on hand to help Stephanie's secret pin-up shine ... and did marvelous work!

Here are some more of Miss Stephanie's smokin' hot shoot. And can I just say - Geaux Saints!

A Date with (Miss) Destiny

Ladies and gents, meet Miss Destiny.

I got to spend an afternoon with her in the studio in June, just having a good time laughing like old friends, even though that was the first time that we'd met. Destiny came in with such a great attitude - a little nervous, but after a few minutes she relaxed and we had a great session. She is getting ready to celebrate her birthday and is also celebrating the fact she's gotten in terrific shape - and I am so proud of her, she looked absolutely amazing and I am very excited to show these off!

Without further adieu ... Miss Destiny!

Christina's Party | June 2011

After attending Jennifer's Party back in May, my good friend Christina decided to host a party of her own at her house. What a blast! The girl's were all so amazing and it was so much fun, plus Christina made this super yummy drink (it had fruit in it and fizzy drink ... yummm!). Glamorous by Jutone Rene was on hand for all the ladies to provide hair and makeup services, and she did an amazing job (as usual).

This party actually ended up being my last private party in Minot, so thank you ladies for such a great night!

Here are quite a few of the shots from that night! A couple of the ladies chose to have their images remain private ~ but here are the ones I was given permission to post! :)
