what do you CRAVE?

September 3, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

I could not be more excited right now.

You see, I’ve been following The CRAVE Company for some time now, ever since I saw Kelly Beth (whom I attend DCC with) tagged in a photo at one of their parties a few months back. I’ll be honest. I was green with envy. And I drooled a little bit. Okay, a LOT. I only wished I could have been at that party – everything looked so incredibly amazing and fun. So I had to check it out and see what CRAVE was all about.

Turns out, it’s a group of incredibly awesome female entrepreneurs in major metropolitan areas around the country. So I did what any girl would do – I hopped on Twitter and started following the three cities that are most relevant to me: Denver, Seattle and Phoenix to see what was going on. Then I learned about the CRAVE guide. So I asked about it, and immediately got a call back from Mia, who heads up the Denver chapter.

Long story short, I decided with that one phone call to jump in with both feet. I could not be more excited. So look for me in the book come December. And if you are a woman who owns her own business in one of these areas, I encourage you to check it out.

back to school special

August 24, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

I can’t believe it’s already that time again – the neighborhood is bustling with kids walking to the school bus in the mornings. It’s only a few weeks before those leaves start to turn now. To celebrate a new school year, I am offering a special through August 31st.

The nitty-gritty: reservation must be made by August 31st. Session date must be prior to October 15, 2010. Payment is due in full at the time of booking. Due to the nature of a mini-session, all sessions are limited to six people. If you need a session for a larger group, please book a regular portrait session.

Please note that I will be in Colorado from September 15-21st, and I am happy to book sessions during that time as my schedule allows.

Book now by clicking here!

Session Special through July 31st!

July 7, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

We all know the economy’s been a little tough on us, and affording such simple luxuries as professional portraits have been ousted for more important things, like new clothes to wear to that job interview. For some, it hasn’t been so bad – for others, it’s been worse. While it might be easy to be diligent about scheduling regular family portraits, sometimes it’s hard to be able to afford all the prints and fun products you’d like to splurge on when the budget is trimmed down.

So from now through July 31st, ALL sessions booked will receive the full amount of the session fee in product credit! Interested in a collection instead? Great! The full amount of the collection price is yours in product credit!

To see our variety of sessions and collections and book your appointment, click here.

Colorado clients, I will be in Denver from September 15-21st and will have 8 sessions available that week.

The fine print: All sessions must be scheduled for a date prior to September 30, 2010. A $50 retainer fee is due at the time of booking.

announcements!

June 30, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

I admit I have been HORRIBLE about blogging and keeping my wonderful fans in the know about what’s happening at Eunice Brownlee Photography. Problem is, so much is going on that it’s hard to know where to start.

So let’s start with a few announcements!

First thing’s first — the show at Il Posto is still happening. It’s just postponed, thanks to a small personal crisis that left me unable to make it to Denver on time. I know, nice of me to tell you ten days late. It’s been a crazy month and I’m actually relieved that it’s over. I’m sorry for the delay, but the show will open on July 16th and I hope to see you there.

Secondly, I promised a portrait special, so here it is! For all portrait sessions booked now through July 31st, you will receive the entire session amount in product credit. Session dates may be booked through September 30th. To set up your portrait session, click here.

Denver fans – I will be in Denver September 15-21st, so if you’re interested in booking a session, please let me know right away! Only 8 sessions are available.  Book now.

There are still a few spaces available for 2011 senior models. If you’re interested in getting the most out of your senior portrait experience, contact me for more information.

Lastly, the big re-design/re-brand project is fully underway. I’m really excited to pull everything together in the next few months.

There is a lot more going on, but with the J.O.B. and summer school, it’s been tough to keep up. More to come soon!

when creativity collides.

May 4, 2010 By Eunice 1 Comment

You all know how much Sarah Noel and I love a good contest! Recently, after much brainstorming for a new series, I was struck with an idea – why not incorporate the multitude of talented writers that participate in the Musings blog into a piece somehow? Better yet, why not make it a contest (since we love to see people win stuff!)? So here it is — a haiku writing contest!

What, exactly, is haiku? It’s a Japanese form of poetry that has 17 “moras” or syllables. In English, we separate these syllables into three lines of 5, 7, 5 syllables, respectively. They typically contain a seasonal reference as well. Check out the image above, that’s a haiku I wrote about the contest.

What does Japanese poetry have to do with photography, you ask? During one of my favorite photography classes, we were given a haiku and asked to interpret it using our cameras. I loved the assignment and would love to do it again! Sure, I could Google ‘summer haiku’ and come up with hundreds, I’m sure. But that’s no fun and there would be no prizes!

If any of you have experienced the insane winter weather (clear through spring) like we did here in Flagstaff, you can empathize with how ready for summer I am. I’d like to see 70 degree days for a consecutive week. Is that too much to ask? Let’s drown our winter blues with some summery creativity!

The contest:

To help us get into the spirit of summer, I want to see your best summer themed haiku!

To enter, email your haiku to me here at eunice@eunicebrownlee.com by May 10th at midnight, PDT.

I will post all entries here on the blog on May 12th for the readers to vote for their favorite haiku. Voting will be open from May 12th-15th.

The prizes:

Top ten picks - Your haiku will become a photograph! I will take each haiku and attempt to interpret it photographically. I will send you a fine art print of your haiku to enjoy.

Top five picks – The photographs and haiku will be displayed at Il Posto starting June 21st (the first day of summer)! Il Posto is an Italian restaurant in Metro Denver where I currently have my photography on display.  It’s time for a new series to hang and this project will be it! All writing credits will be given to the respective authors.

Top pick – The poem with the most votes will win this fabulous journal starter e-book from Imaginibbles (you know you want it).(image retreived here)

This prize was chosen to help benefit the Dream Big Promise that Imaginibbles is sponsoring. For every item purchased, Imaginibbles is donating one Life Straw® to a third world country in need of clean drinking water. They have several great items designed to unleash your creative power. Please check out the other items they have to offer and shop around, won’t you?

back on the grid.

February 23, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

I realize that it’s been several weeks since I’ve posted anything, but many factors have contributed to me being MIA recently – a bunch of family stuff that came up suddenly, and then a major technology fail. My archaic computer took a dump and one can only spend so much time on a BlackBerry.

I’m really excited to get back to blogging – I’ve had a couple of sessions that I am eager to post and share with you, plus some announcements for spring mini sessions and travel dates.

make a wish.

January 5, 2010 By Eunice Leave a Comment

In the past few years, I have become a part of a community that I love so much because they are all about giving back. All of the hours I have spent in the past two years have been met with a mix of both praise and criticism. Truly though, I have always had a giving heart and I decided that I need to do more.

This year, I decided that I wanted to help out as many charities as I could, some big, some small, all in need of support. So I have decided to donate 10% of my profits each month to give to a specific charity. This month: The Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Since 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation® has enriched the lives of children with life-threatening medical conditions through its wish-granting work. The Foundation’s mission reflects the life-changing impact that a Make-A-Wish® experience has on children, families, referral sources, donors, sponsors and entire communities.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation was founded in 1980 after a little boy named Chris Greicius realized his heartfelt wish to become a police officer. Since its humble beginnings, the organization has blossomed into a worldwide phenomenon, reaching more than 174,000 children around the world.

Although it has become one of the world’s most well-known charities, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has maintained the grassroots fulfillment of its mission.

A network of nearly 25,000 volunteers enable the Make-A-Wish Foundation to serve children with life-threatening medical conditions. Volunteers serve as wish granters, fundraisers, special events assistants and in numerous other capacities.

As the Foundation continues to mature, its mission will remain steadfast. Wish children of the past, present and future will have an opportunity to share the power of a wish®. (Source: Make-a-Wish)

The first year I lived in Denver was the first time that I had been involved with the Make-a-Wish foundation, and it was so inspiring to me that there are a group of people out there that simply want to bring magic into a child’s life at a time that doesn’t feel very magical. Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that?

So this month, please join me in raising money to help make some dreams come true.
