Updated website!

The new website that we have been promising for a while now is finally linked to our domain. It is a flash-based website, so if you cannot view flash on your computer, we recommend you visit our non-flash website. Check it out yourself! I hope you like it as much as I do.

www.lifesbigevents.com (Flash)

--OR--

www.lifesbigevents.net
(Non-Flash)

If you would like to suggest changes, please let us know!

MHS Ski-A-Thon

For the last five years, Life's Big Events has been proud to be a part of the Maine Handicapped Skiing Ski-A-Thon. Each year we gather images from photographers on the slopes as well as take a few snapshots of our own and put together a slideshow for the beinning of their awards cermony. This year the MHS Ski-A-Thon raised over $250,000! They have accomplished a great feat given the current tough economy. We're proud to support such a fantastic foundation that provides services to those who would not be able to enjoy life in the same way without them. I hope that we can continue to support them in the upcoming years! Next year will be the 25th Ski-A-Thon, and I can't wait to see how it comes together!

Portrait Session of the Month

In the office we have been brainstorming about special portrait sessions we can offer each month. Next month (April) will be our Easter Bonnet Special:

APRIL: EASTER BONNET SPECIAL $99 Photo, $199 Photo & Video
Show off your style – whether it’s comical or chic, elegant or outlandish. Come in anytime in April with your family, your friends, your pet, or all by yourself, but wear your best hat(s), for a portrait session that celebrates the return of warm weather and the Easter season. Session includes an 11x14 print and a dozen chocolate truffles. Portraits will be available online, all other prints and images can be purchased for an additional cost. Video sessions will come with a three minute video that can be shared with family members online.

This session is great for young children, and a great memory to share with whole families!

What do you think? We would love to have your feedback. Our company benefits from your opinion, and your comments help us give you what you are looking for from your portraits. If you have a special of the month suggestion for next month or any other month, suggest away! If you give us an idea that we use, we will give you a free one hour video portrait session!

Thank you for your input!

Cheesecake!


Yesterday Melissa and I photographed cheesecake. If you're a fan of cheesecake, these were some of the ultimate delicious, beautiful cheesecakes found right here in Maine. Located in the Portland area, Bella Cheesecakes are made by Owner and Head Baker Anthony Dominicus. From the over thirty flavors that he makes, each one is unique and bound to make your mouth water. We had the opportunity to photograph his cheesecakes for his new website (coming soon!). Until then, please send him an e-mail at tdominicus@yahoo.com for more information about his business. Or give him a call at (207) 939-1851.



I have never had so much fun photographing food!

New Blog!

There are so many ways to connect with the outside world these days. The Internet has forever changed the way ordinary people go about creating extraordinary lives. In attempt to catch up with the world, I've been put in charge of blogging for Life's Big Events. I've been a photographer with Life's Big Events for 3 1/2 years, and I've enjoyed photographing more than 60 weddings as an assistant for Melissa, as well as several as a lead photographer. This year's wedding season is fast coming upon us and from this blog I hope that our brides, families, seniors and the rest of our adorable clients can catch up with us and stay connected! If you want to learn more about Life's Big Events, please check out our website- but come back in a week or two! We're working on a brand-new flash website built on http://www.wix.com/. Very cool website, with the easiest flash builder I've ever come across. Just in case you can't read our flash based sight, please check out http://www.lifesbigevents.net/. We'll keep that website updated as well so that even if you don't have flash, you can still learn more about us!

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to staying connected with you!
