Phoenix Vice Mayor Visits Enchanted Forest

We were interviewed in November, 2012 by Phoenix Vice Mayor Councilman Bill Gates in our portrait studio here in Sunnyslope, North Central Phoenix. We were filmed for a special TV segment featured on Phoenix11 in front of our Enchanted Forest set and while photographing two of our lovely fairies, Heaven and Lexi. You will see them along with some of our other images in the segment. Watch the segment below and see if there is anyone you know. This video is being featured on Phoenix11 cable TV here in Arizona. If you are interested in being notified the next time we offer this special session early next year, please sign up for our e-newsletter on our website: apatrouphotography.com.

A Western Blustery Blow!

This is a favorite shot from a session we did recently with actor Greg Bronson. This idea was the last set we did and the images really came out great. We edited in the tobacco and smoke for the pipe in Photoshop in post production. Greg often has parts in western movies that shoot in the Phoenix, AZ area.

Enchanted Forest Sessions

 

We are offering our International-Award-Winning Enchanted Forest Portrait Sessions for Girls age 4 to 9 years old (size 8), on Friday November 9th, Saturday November 10th, and Sunday November 11th. We now have three hand-made dresses. Your session includes the use of one of our unique fairy costumes in our exclusive Enchanted Forest Set, and (1) - 8 x10 print, all for only $59.00 plus tax.

Sessions are by appointment only, so you must book in advance by calling 602-821-5307. Call soon to  insure your child can participate. Please call for further general information and questions.

We have had requests from adults who have their own fairy costumes to get portraits in our set so we are booking adults on Monday November 12th if you are interested. Pricing for adults is $69.00 plus tax for your session and (1) 8x10 print and we do not supply adult costumes. Poses for adults will be reclining or seated and petite adult fairies will fit in our set the best!

I wanted to share one of our Enchanted Forest Portraits of Eden from July, 2012. This is one of many favorites from all of the girls.  If you are interested in booking your child during the fall, please sign up for our e-Newsletter on our main website to be notified.

Rebel's Repose

I thought I would share a larger image of the high scoring image that helped bump me into first place in the Top Ten Photographer of the Year category at the AZPPA Convention for 2012. Having the highest scoring print case translated to the Emil Eager Photographer of the Year Award in 2012! Thanks to Jim Cigan for modeling his Civil War re-enactor's outfit for me. If you're an interesting enough character and have authentic western clothing or clothing from another era, send me an email and I will consider you for a future project.

We worked with Katey in the studio and on locations creating these photographic stills and video clips and a short film called "La Lettre" which won for Best Cinematography at the Rebel Film Festival in Tempe, AZ. Our music is licensed for use with this video and is called "Everyday" by Carly Comando.
