So many things going on....

Hi Guys!

I hate doing ridiculously long status updates on my page so I thought I better write a blog post. I'm very, very excited for this year.

Ladies Night Glam shots:
Another venture Nvision is a part of is something I feel really strongly about. Woman feeling good about themselves and taking time for themselves. We are Partnering up with Lucia Hairdesign to create 'Ladies night out' events, starting with a Mother's Day themed night. Here's the details...

Woman of any age are welcome. Mothers and daughters, best friends..
Over 1/3 of the proceeds are going to the Breast Cancer Society.
Evening of Monday, May 2nd at Lucia Hairdesign in Trenton
Hair, make-up and a 'Glamour' photo shoot
8x10 Photo is included with the option to order more.
Spaces are limited.
Book by calling Lucia at 613 392 4243
$99 tax included
Do something special for yourself and help out a good cause!
Great gift for Mother's Day as well.

Studio Update:
The Studio will be part-time as I love being outside and I am opening it while I'm going into my busy outdoor season. I will book studio sessions Mon, Wed, Friday's and the rest of the time will be spent doing the regular shoots outdoors. If anyone has any old random items that they think would be great for the studio please let me know. It's amazing what some people would think is junk is actually awesome for studio props (old wooden boxes, suitcases, flower pots etc.). A rough date for the opening of the studio is the end of April but possibly earlier :)

Weddings:
I am gearing up and looking forward to this years wedding season as I think it's going to be crazy busy but pretty fantastic. 2012 is starting to book fast (3 weddings booking this wk) so please don't hesitate to contact me if you are wanting to book. $200 non-refundable deposit is what you will need to book the date.

Facebook Contest:
The Nvision Facebook contest is still happening so please read the previous Blog post for info to win a free session. The photos will have numbers on them and will not be tagged so don't be shy...get creative. I am hoping those of you who love photography will have fun with it. Send your 'Nvision' photo to info@nvisionproductions.ca

SweetiePea Boutique Contest:
SweetiePea Boutique has created a 'Favourite Photographers Contest' and Nvision was nominated. It was wonderful to be nominated and I appreciate all of the votes so much! There are 3 more days to vote so if you would like to vote you need to 'Like' the SweetiePea Boutique page on facebook and then it will allow you to 'like' the Nvision pic in the contest album which is how you vote.

Thanks for reading all my rambling on. BEST CLIENTS EVER. Fav part of this business is that I become friends with my clients after working with them. Take Care all!
-Nik

To ENTER the CONTEST you need to get out your camera and in a CrEaTIvE way spell out the word 'Nvision'.

  • Anyone can enter as long as they are willing to travel to Belleville for the session.
  • You can gift the session to someone else.
  • Minimal photo editing allowed (to be fair to those who are not trained in photoshop etc.) Colour corrections, BW, colour enhancements are types of editing that are allowed.
  • You will receive an email saying the photo has been received, if you do not please resend.
  • You will need to post on your wall that in order for your friends and family to vote they need to be apart of the Nvision fan page by 'liking' it and then they can 'like' your photo
  • Votes=LIKES not comments although comments are always welcome :)
Paint, candy, branches, chalk, food, really it is endless...set it up and take the pic to send in.

Inspired by Art Attack circa 1990 hahahaha

BEAUTIFUL is BEAUTIFUL nostandardsnomouldsnocompetition


With Facebook always changing discussion boards are not an option on my page right now so I wanted to write a blog about Boudoir photos (Not just for Valentine's)

With wedding season starting very soon many Brides are interested in Boudoir sessions for their hubby's-to-be. A lot of people do the regular type of wedding gifts but how about surprising him with something completely personal and unique. You will feel amazing and sexy and he will probably not be able to get his chin off the ground. This is something every woman should do for herself no matter what age, shape or size.
Here's what one of my clients wrote me afterwards...

"After struggling for over 10 years with body image issues, not being able to look in a mirror with the lights on at my face and having no photos of me takin since I was 12 you would have thought I was crazy to get boudoir photos done....But a friend of mine had, had them done and convinced me it would help with my little secret.. low self esteem.
After much coaxing I finally called and made an appointment with fingers crossed. The day finally arrived and while having a small panic attack on the way over for the shoot I was gonna give it a go. After meeting Nicole I was put at ease but still a little nervous.
After changing into my first outfit and being told you'll do fine by both my friend and Nicole the shoot started. Now remember I haven't been in front of a camera in 10yrs so its a bit nerve racking but I felt like I really connected with Nicole and trusted her. For the first time I was comfortable in my skin even though it was my first time meeting her. She was patient,kind,new the right things to say to put me at ease and gave great direction, needless to say I recieved my photos and actually cried. They turned out amazing!!! I looked like I knew what I was doing, like I wasn't scared, and I smiled in them!! Nicole really changed my life by helping me to see what other people do when they look at me, she gave me confidence, helped me fight my fears and made me feel good about myself. If it wasn't for Nicole I still wouldn't have any photos of myself.
Thanks Nicole you helped my self esteem and confidence in more ways than you'll ever know♥"
This is why I love what I do! It feels amazing for me as a photographer to be able to show a beautiful woman she is beautiful. Too many people have low self-esteem because of the society we live in and I love seeing real woman with or creating real confidence!
