Two Markow-Kent Clients Working for Arizona's Interest

This week, I had the pleasure of attending and photographing for the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust.  The Trust helps local non-profits through financial grants which help children, families, animals and the environment throughout Arizona.  One of the recipients this time was the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.  Attending on behalf of the Museum was Joe McGarry, partner from Lewis & Roca, another Markow-Kent client.  The mission of the Museum is to inspire people to live in union with the fantastic variety of species in our native desert without harm.

I urge you to learn more about the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, The Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust and local law firm Lewis & Roca by using the links here.  Our world is an amazing place and I am very proud of my association with clients who do their best to make Arizona a better place!

Effects Can Create A Mood . . . .

Once an image has been captured, the artistic creation does not have to end with the shutter closing.  There are many different painting effects that can be applied to images to enhance their mood and evoke emotion.

Whether you have just been photographed by Markow-Kent, soon to have a session or were photographed in the past, we can create a beautiful piece of art, just for you!

Casual CAN be for business!

When deciding how to project your image for business, you do not always have to wear a jacket and tie.  The key to a successful business portrait is to appear how your clients will meet you.  If you normally meet with clients in a suit, or if your profession is one where clients expect to see you in a suit, then you should wear one.  But, if you consistantly meet with your clients in casual attire, that is the way you should dress.  As this gentleman clearly shows,
confidence in yourself will shine through no matter how you dress!

If unsure how to dress for your business portrait, bring several changes along.  When you arrive we can discuss your occupation and together make decisions regarding your clothing.

Feel free to call 602-264-6404 and schedule your business session today!  No matter the industry, you cannot overlook the power of a visual presence on printed and internet materials.

Parents, we need your feedback!

New school packages are being arranged now for tha fall.  There is a poll to the right of this post where we hope to receive feedback from parents regarding packages.  Please take a minute to fill out the poll or send an email to the studio with any ideas you have for fall portrait packages!  We appreciate your input!

Headshots are Great for Announcements, Websites, Business Cards and more!

Headshots are a great way to annouce new employees or promotions of current employees.  A professional image makes a lasting impression on websites or in the business journal.  Rather than placing an in-house snapshot taken against a white wall with a point and shoot camera on your companies' website, using a professional portrait will unify the look of your staff and create a continous flow to staff bios.

Last Friday, the gentleman to the left came in as a new hire for HDR Engineering.  In about ten minutes, his session was complete and he was on his way to the office.  His proofs were available via email that day and once his selection was made, the retouched and delivered image was sent the HDR's marketing department by Monday.  To find out more about HDR, visit their website at http://www.hdrinc.com/.

Favorite Photo of the Day

When going through the archives today, I came across this image.  Although it was not what I really wanted the dog to do in this particular shot, I really like how the his expression of love for his owner caught her off-guard and made her laugh.  Sometimes, moments like these can change the mood of a session and both pet and owner will completely relax. 

I am happy to report that Bubba is still the adoring buddy of this client!
