“Dreams get you into the future and add excitement to the present.”~Robert Conklin

So today is the official unveil of my hard work and effort put into my new beautiful website! I am proud to say that I am in love with the website provider SHOWIT. Their community just totally ROCKS this world. If you are in need of a website….PLEASE USE SHOWIT! I just can’t say enough about my LOVE for SHOWIT and the community! I am praying that you all like it. I made a conscious decision a few months back that I am only going to photograph WEDDINGS and SENIORS. I will still be available once or twice a year to photograph families, but I needed a change and I needed to put my business where my HEART was telling me to go. I have prayed many of days and totally feel this is what and where I want to be. So if you know anyone getting engaged or graduating High School, please send them my way! I would LOVE to meet them. I am in LOVE with the GORGEOUSNESS of a BRIDE on her wedding day and I am in LOVE with the SENIORS fashion style. They both compliment each other.

Ok, so feel FREE to look around at my new home on the internet. http://www.nancymitchellphotography.com! There will be TONS to see. I will be updating the website and the blog constantly. So make sure you come back to see my most recent shoots and for the most recent happening in my ordinary everyday life.

Finally if you are a potential client who wants to get in touch with me, just click the contact button on the top of my website and that will get you all set up!

***But Now I need your help to start spreading the word about my new home on the internet! So here is the DEALeeO… Go and blog about my new launch with a link or post on facebook, and in the comment box below tell me that you did, and I will pick some lucky winner at random to win a STARBUCKS gift card! So go and SPREAD SOME LOVE!

Kaylie | 2012 Anthony Wayne High School Senior

Monday, October 24th, 2011

” Don’t you stand upon the shoreline and say you’re satisfied:
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tides.” ~Victoria Shaw

I got the opportunity to photograph my co-workers daughter a couple of weeks ago. Isn’t she just GORGEOUS! She is a senior at Anthony Wayne High School. She will be attending OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY after she graduates! GO BUCKEYES! We photographed Kaylie in downtown Grand Rapids, Ohio. The weather was crazy that day. We almost cancelled her shoot, but I am glad she stuck with it and the photos tell you why! I wish you much continued success Kaylie. And if Kaylie gets 10 of her friends to get their SENIOR pictures taken by me, she will get a FREE iPAD! So start spreading the word! She would LOVE to have it.

Business Talk | my life

Monday, April 18th, 2011

Love makes a lot of things possible. Still, getting married is probably one of the most important decisions a woman can ever make in her life.

This past weekend I got to go on a getaway with the LOVE of my life, my husband! We got to get away without kids. We went to Soaring Eagle Casino. Hey I know it isn’t much, but my husband LOVES to gamble and I just go to get away and play the slots a bit! It is just a getaway that is very relaxing to say the least. I was social network free and it felt good. Don’t get me wrong….I missed it, but realized I can live without it. I had the opportunity to think over many business decisions that I have made in the past year or so. I want to thank all of my wonderful clients for giving me the opportunity to photograph their special day and special loved ones! It means alot to me that YOU gave me a chance. A chance I might not have gotten. I want so much for my business adventure to grow and grow fast, but in reality I know that it takes time. I LOVE photographing all aspects of life. I want to photograph the complete circle…Engagement, Wedding, Maternity, Newborn, Child, Senior, Family, and back to Weddings:) I know eventually I might decide that one might be a bigger priority, but for now I am realizing that I LOVE shooting people! I LOVE LOVE! I recently got the chance to listen to three well known wedding photographers speak and man I want a business like theirs! They are very successful in what they do and their work is so incredibly amazing. They took chances and it took time and commitment to make it happen! So I am asking YOU if you would like to be photographed, whether it is your family, newborn, maternity, child, senior, or even a wedding that YOU choose Nancy Mitchell Photography! I am trying to grow my business and would LOVE some more bookings! Remember I do have a referral program this year and it is $100 print credit for each referral you send to me! I would LOVE to shoot some more weddings this year too. This year has been great so far, but I want to ROCK it out the rest of the year! Please HELP ME in doing so by sending me some clients or becoming a client yourself! I really appreciate each one of YOU and I look forward to working with you! Here are some 2011 Open Wedding Dates if they don’t get filled, I will be opening them up for portrait sessions! If you are interested in any of these dates or know someone who would be interested email me (nancymitchellphotography@yahoo.com) or call me!

Northview High School 2011 Senior Rep Joey | Seniors

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

I had the pleasure to photography Joey for his Senior Pics last Saturday. He wasn’t too much of a fan of waking up early, but he was a good sport! I even had to take some pics for him to enter in the Abercrombie & Fitch contest! I am praying that he becomes a finalist! How cool would that be? Joey also plays Hockey so we went to the local ice skating rink and took some pics there too:) And believe it or not, I have never been to a Hockey game! I might have to attend of of his this year! Thanks Joey for making my job so easy! Best of luck to you this year!

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

I got the opportunity to photograph this gorgeous senior yesterday. I used to work with her aunt Laura. Laura’s house was recently destroyed in the TORNADO that went through here this past June. Thanks Laura for referring Angel to me and I wish you the best with your new home. We photographed this lovely gal at her church (The Church on Strayer)! Angel will be a SENIOR REP for me this year. I look forward to photographing more pics of her throughout the year and if you know a SENIOR, send them my way! I would love to photograph them.
