Congrats Micki! We love you and are so happy for you and Chris!

Hey there ho there, bloggy blog world. (Get it? Get it? I crack myself up.) This is Quinn.

This blog post is dedicated to the art of watermarks. Us folks here in the Glasser Images offices have recently been going through a traumatic watermark experience. The Great Watermark Incident of 2011 (TGWI of 2011) has just concluded and we are dead tired. A war of sorts has been raging under our roof and the cause of much strife and heartache. Okay. Not really. But it has been an experience. Quite a few months ago, we realized “Oh! We should get ourselves a watermark!” It was a good, solid idea. Weeks pass, as we are A.) busy B.) tired C.) tired and busy. Once we finally sat down and agreed it was time to get the watermark ball rolling, there were differing opinions. We actually had heated discussions over black vs. white, fonts, layouts, opacity, you name it. Some battles were won (by me) and some were lost (also by me). Nevertheless, it is here! We have given birth to a watermark baby and we love it. Now everyone will know what is who’s and who’s is what and that the photos are indeed a product of Glasser Images. (In case there was any doubt. I don’t think there was.) Enjoy!

*Note: These occurrences were far less dramatic that what appears above. No one was injured or anything. We are just excited and I wanted to write a paragraph.
*Note #2: Not all of the names on the watermarks are correct, I just threw together some examples and wanted to give a shout out to everyone!

Hello all! I cannot claim the title of this post. I totally stole it from the Drew Berrymore classic, Never Been Kissed. (Oh, the 90s!)  It’s that time of year! No, not time for spring cleaning or baseball. (No disrespect for spring cleaning or baseball!)

It’s prom time.

Time for the shop windows to be filled with the most colorful and fun dresses you’ll ever see. Time for watching nervous guys ducking into bridal boutiques to get fitted for their tuxes (more excited then they’ll ever let on.) Time for high school to be suddenly covered in posters with the best prom theme ever (see: Under the Sea, Casino Royale, Arabian Nights, etc.)  Time for thoughts to drift from algebra and psychology to limos and corsages. Time for you to see some of your classmates cleaner than you will ever see them again.

Yes.
Oh, yes.
It’s prom.

It’s also time to give us Glasser Images compadres a call because we want YOU (Yes, you) to hang out with us on your prom day and take some sweet photographs. We want to see you in your best duds and document it forever and ever! Give us a jingle at 250-2190 and let the memories begin, yo.

Glasser Images Funfacts:
Jack went to prom with the gorgeous miss Katrin and we photographed her wedding this past summer.
Quinn (me) wore Chuck Taylors to her senior prom. I may or may not still wear them regularly.
Abby was Prom Queen at her high school. Hollllllla.

Hello dear readers!

To further advance our blogging prowess, I’m coming at you to ask your opinion on a few different ideas!
We desperately want to fan the flames of our little blog! We want to get our smoldering embers to a big fire, happily crackling on Christmas. Okay, not necessarily on Christmas. But we do want it to thrive and grow and be a virtual metropolis of photos and happiness. In order to make this actually happen, we want to find out what all of our beautiful readers want to see!

This can be but is not limited to:
1.) More photos in each post- do you want too see more of a whole shoot? Do the posts leave you unfulfilled and you wish you just had a few more examples?

2.) Less photos in each post- do you want to see less photos? Are you nauseated amount of photos and just want it to be short and sweet?

3.) More person information about us- We often joke about having our own reality show on Bravo, because quite frankly, some of the shenanigans we get into have to be seen to be believed. We are open books of information, and whether you want to get a glimpse of our personal lives is completely up to you! It can be a scary place (but totally awesome at the same time.) Like a Tim Burton movie. If that sounds remotely interesting, a weekly post dedicated to our likes/dislikes/celebrity crushes/favorite foods/current sock color is totally doable. It would be like a weekly Barbara Walters interview (only with far less crying.)

4.) Some sort of FAQ post- we do get occasional questions about our shooting, equipment, post processing, etc. We would be delighted to bestow some of the wisdom we do have upon you! This could easily be combined with a personal post, because fielding questions about shooting and our favorite places to shop for shoes goes hand in hand, if you ask me.

5.) More of a certain kind of post- this is somewhat of a seasonal issue, but is there a certain type of post you would like to see more of? I know I am just getting the ball rolling again with the blog, and there’s not much to behold yet, but is there something you are itching to see? I am planning to blog like a mad woman this summer to try and keep up with all of our weddings and seniors, but I would be 87.43% more motivated to write blog posts everyday if I knew that it something you would be looking forward to.

Does ANY of this interest you?? If it does, please please please please comment below! It is 100% safe and super easy. Or if you prefer a horse of a different color, write on our Facebook wall! I could say we are hardly ever on Facebook, but it would be a downright LIE.  If we get no responses, we will do all of the above (that’s right. more and less photos at the same time) assuming you all were too torn and just couldn’t make a decision.

And now, because I desperately want it to stop snowing…
