Holiday Photography

Say cheese! It’s time to start making your holiday cards. Of course, you can do it yourself if you have the perfect picture or you can put on your Sunday best and head out with a professional photographer. There are so many to choose from, but I had to select just five. I hope you like them. I have tried to select photographers in various price ranges so call around until you find the right one for you. And remember, these pictures document your life making them truly priceless.

Now, let’s face it, one of the easiest ways to make a photo holiday card and keep the cost down through the internet. Assuming, of course, that is you have a great picture or two to upload. For those of you with the perfect picture, I have just the card for you. It’s new, it’s fashionable, it’s memorable, it’s the stylish online holiday card collection from the Bonnie Marcus Collection and it’s available to you exclusively at the Kodak Gallery website. Choose from Christmas, New Year, and Hanukkah designs with room for one or two photos. Just click here and order your cards in minutes.

If you're asking yourself why this name and these designs seem familiar, it's because Ms. Moffly is a Bonnie Marcus woman! Bonnie Marcus, a local Westport business woman, resident, wife and mother of three has taken her holiday card collection online in a joint venture with Kodak — how exciting! Of course, if you like what you see, then shop her entire line of pads, journals, note cards, canvas totes and more at bonniemarcus.com.

After 24 years of concentrating on portrait photography, Jeffrey Shaw has made a name for himself. Maybe you have seen his work on The Oprah Winfrey Show or in People Magazine. Whether you want to be photographed in Connecticut, Westchester, NYC or the Hamptons, Jeffrey will come to you. But before he does, he will get to know you and work with you to ensure that he captures your natural beauty that comes from feeling relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. Take Jeff’s suggestions on clothing, colors, hair and makeup, and then let him work his magic with you and your children. You will not be disappointed. Photo sessions last approximately an hour and a half; after which, you can view your proofs online. Of course, Jeffrey welcomes time with you in his Greenwich studio to help choose photos to print and frame, create greeting cards and more.

Bruce Plotkin. I first met Bruce when I hired him to photograph my wedding. I thought his photos and the way he styled his books was a little more eye catching than the competition and he simply stood out in the crowd. I must have been right because as it turns out, Bruce is one of Moffly’s photographers of choice. He has done quite a bit for us over the years and most recently, the cover and feature spread for the October issue of New Canaan Magazine.

Aside from magazines, weddings (and the most fabulous engagement photos), and special events (bar and bat mitzvahs), Bruce truly enjoys working with families and kids to photograph them at a location of their choice. Need some ideas for your family portrait, then take a look at Bruce’s website.  You will be inspired. bruceplotkin.com.

To reach Bruce Plotkin, you can call or e-mail.

If you want a photographer that can do it all, then Capitol Photointeractive may be the studio for you. Owner and veteran photographer Regina Madwed cannot only take your family portrait and frame it, turn it into fine art, holiday cards, albums, anything you want, but she can also make the special events in your life like a bar or bat mitzvah or wedding a memorable event.

Of course, if you have professional needs, just ask some of her clients such as Gov. Jodi Rell, former First Lady Barbara Bush, John McCain or Rudy Guliani for a testimonial as she has photographed them for professional portraits and ad work. In addition, Regina is a seasoned web designer. Let Regina take your company’s business to the next level with the creation (or re-creation) of your website.

Want a photographer with a bit of an edge, then head to Jack Dog Studio and jam, jump, juggle or ok, even be a little serious for an unbeatable family portrait with Richard Flaskegaard. Feel free to bring the dog (or cat) and get the family into the scene that you and Richard create with his  couches, chairs, wagons, rocking horses, bats, balls, bubbles, whatever. You name it, he’ll find it. 

Richard’s enthusiasm and his great mix of music can really get you in the right mood for the perfect picture so sit back, smile and when it comes time to view your photos, he can customize any picture into black and white, fine art, coffee table books, holiday cards and more.
