I’m doing some retouching and jamming to some Shakira tonight and thought I’d post an update for my adoring fans. 
Anna is an artist from Ann Arbor, Michigan. She flew out and had a portrait session with me a couple weeks ago.
Yes, she’s gorgeous. Yes, she’s smart, and yes, I’m proud to say she’s also my sister 
If you’d like to purchase some of her artwork for billions upon billions of dollars, or at least tens of dollars, then check out her Etsy Shop!
Can you believe it’s already September?!?! Time to start thinking about family portraits and Christmas card ideas!
Give me a call to schedule a free consultation and we’ll brainstorm some ideas together.

I agree with this cartoon whole-heartedly! As far as I’m concerned, it’s HARD to take action shots with a point and shoot camera. If you want your camera to actually take the picture the second you push the button, make sure you buy a digital SLR camera, or go back to film. (I wouldn’t recommend the film option) What’s the difference between a point and shoot and an SLR you ask? Check out this previous post for the answer.
A common question I hear is “Can I scan my portraits?“
The short answer is: No, it’s a federal offense.
Although some may justify this action by saying they already paid for the portraits, this is equivalent to buying a movie and making several copies for your friends (which, by the way is illegal too). The same laws that protect musicians from having their music copied and directors from having their movies copied are the same copyright laws that protect photographers. These copyright laws are federal laws and breaking them is consequently a federal offense. Images don’t need to have a (C) logo on them to be protected by copyright either. They’re actually covered by federal copyright law as soon as they are created.
So next time you take a picture of your cute children playing at the park, you can say to yourself, “This picture is copyrighted by ME! WOOHOO!”
If you want to reproduce portraits for your website or any other use, Leavitt Photo offers a legal means for you to do so. Costs vary depending on the usage.
Hello Everyone!
I’d like to introduce you to the future Sophomore Class President of Timberline High School.
**UPDATE **** HAYDEN WON THE ELECTION! WOOHOO! ****UPDATE*****

Well, we hope he’ll win at least.
Being an accomplished student, violinist, triathlete, and great older brother, Hayden seems nothing short of super human.
If you’re a future Sophomore at Timberline, you would be wise to vote for this guy. He’s the man for the job!
For those who are interested, you can also follow Hayden’s campaign on Facebook.
Good luck on your campaign Hayden!
