Lakeville MN Documentary Photographer: Little Adventure Photos

50 little adventures all children should experience before they grow up

Do you remember dancing in the rain, building forts in the woods, swimming with your clothes on or catching snowflakes on your tongue with your best friend? Do you remember waking up and running to your best friend’s house to discuss what you want to do that day ... almost like checking items off your childhood bucket list? Our childhood memories may fade as we get older, but they never leave us! When reflecting on these memories it often brings a smile to our face and a wistful feeling in our hearts.

Now you can remember these simple joys always with Anthologie’s Childhood Bucket List photography collections. These collections are created to chronicle a year in the life of your little ones at a fantastic value.

So, how does it work? Simple. We want to capture all of the simple joys of childhood for you and your family. We've even made this handy list (at right) that you can use as inspiration. Think about 4 times of the year you'd love to have professional photos of your kids, and (gasp!) not have to worry about taking the photos yourself.

That right. Finally, you, the busy parent trying to wield a camera while feeding a newborn and disciplining a toddler with boundless energy can finally be in the pictures, too! We specialize in letting you naturally interact with a fun activity while we create stunning pictures of those meaningful moments together.

That’s it! We’ll do the work while you have the fun! Call us today at 952-232-5830 and simply let us know what four little adventures you’d like to capture over the next year so you can always remember this special time for your family.

Included in  your Childhood Bucket List Photography Collection:

• (4) 1-hour documentary style photography sessions on location • A creative post processing of all of your best pictures • Password-protected proofing website for photo sharing and convenient online ordering • 5x7 copyright release to all photos from the year

Session: $175 each

A gift for you! We're sharing the love for our anniversary

Time sure does fly when you're having fun. We're excited to share that Anthologie officially turned 5 years old today! We're celebrating with a gift for you. As a token of our gratitude for your years of support, we're offering a 16x20 wall portrait for every family or documentary photography session throughout the month of February.

With February being the month of love, we're asking: Who is in your heart?

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and you don't want to be caught without something sweet for those you love, right? Well, we have the perfect way to show your love year round! This year, every family photo session or documentary photo project in February will include a 16x20 wall portrait (an $80 value) as our gift to you.

We know that love is a powerful emotion, but one that doesn't always have to be about romance. Your love for your niece, your grandfather or your family pet can be every bit as important as the bond between spouses. So, this month why not celebrate the relationship you have with those in your heart?

When your photo session is finished you can rest assured that those special moments won't be lost in the ether or relegated to a life in a hard drive. Instead those memories will make a BIG statement in your home. We will print your favorite image on the finest photographic papers around and present it to you to proudly display for years to come.

To get this wonderful gift for your sweetie simply follow these instructions:

• Contact us {952-232-5830 or info (at) theanthologie.com} to discuss your photo project
• Make sure your photo session takes place by Feb. 28, 2014
• All regularly priced family and documentary photo sessions are eligible
• After your photos are presented online just tell us your favorite
• That's it! We'll print the wall portrait for you and you look like a hero

Coon Rapids, MN Business Photographer | Headshot Promotion

Image Is Everything

You wouldn't send your résumé in to a potential employer scrawled out on notebook paper, would you? Of course not. You want to look your best - to be taken seriously. However, many people forget to add this same level of professionalism to their online résumés, specifically when it comes to profile pictures.

Putting your best face forward with a great picture that shows you're serious about your career can speak volumes to prospective clients, colleagues and business associates. Take that image one step further with a photo that not only shows what you look like, but also showcases your personality and you'll really stand out from the crowd.

Anthologie is excited to offer professional profile photos at an amazing value. Join us Thursday, Dec. 13, at Bunker Hills Golf Club in Coon Rapids, MN for our lastest business development workshop, Get LinkedIn. This event is perfect for recent college graduates, business owners, or those simply wanting to learn or imporove their LinkedIn skills. Choose a 90-minute session that works best for your schedule and in addition to receiving a new business portrait, you'll learn relevant tips and tricks to elevate your LinkedIn success, and gain valuable contacts while networking with other area business professionals. Best of all, the total workshop fee, including your photo, is only $50!

Our presentation will be led by business marketing pros — and LinkedIn gurus — Jon Bauer and Kari Switala of Magnetik Marketing Solutions in the cozy Harvest Grill at Bunker Hills. Short photo sessions will be provided on site and photographs will be digitally delivered following the event. Remember to bring your business cards for networking.

Dress for success

We aim to capture your personality with your portrait so it's important for you to dress in a manner that speaks to who you are and your intended career path. Remember, with business photography, you want to dress for the job you want, not the job you already have. Think about the image you want to project to others and dress accordingly.

• Jackets and coats that are crisp and fitted photograph the best

• Dressing in layers is always a great option for multiple looks

• Solid colors rather than busy patterns add an air of sophistication

• Dark and neutral colors are great for outerwear

• Avoid vibrant colors with shirts unless that's a part of who you are

• Guys, bring a tie. Ladies, add a scarf. You can always take it off if it's too formal.

• What's slimming? Simple, solids, darks, vertical lines and single-breasted suits

It may sound silly, but it's not a bad idea to practice your smile in a mirror before your session. You may find that your "posed smile" makes you look less approachable. Don't worry, Anthologie photographer Dan Iverson is a pro at making you relaxed and at ease being yourself in front of the camera.

If you have additional questions, please email Kari Switala at kari(at)magnetikmarketingsolutions.com
