The New Year has arrived and we wanted to share with you 10 easy steps you can take to make sure this is the best (and most organized!) year for all your photo needs:

1. Plan your photo sessions for the year.

There are many great moments throughout the year. Knowing when to have your photo sessions can make your life a whole lot easier than to wait until the last minute. Some important photo sessions to keep in mind could be January business headshots, May Mother’s Day photos, June Father’s Day photos, Fall photos for Christmas cards, back to school photos, December “Home for the Holiday” photos, and so much more!  (more…)

So many things happen in the spring and summer, especially for those who have a graduate in their family.  Maybe it’s a high school graduate, a College/University grad, a Grade 9 grad, a Kindergarten grad, or maybe your child is graduating from one level to the next in an extra-curricular activity.  Whatever the case may be, graduation is an exciting transition.  It is about taking the next step into something new after accomplishing a significant milestone.

Sometimes it is too easy to get caught up in the busyness of life, and we forget to capture the memorable moments such as graduation.  You are proud of your kids for reaching new goals, and those memories should not be forgotten.  That is why we recommend graduation photos, and to make things even easier, below is a list we have compiled to help make these photos that much more efficient to organize.

For many people, home decorating isn’t just a fun hobby; it is what makes a house feel like a home, and allows you to creatively implement your own unique style.  Every home is different, and each is decorated in its own way, but there are always certain homes that stand out as memorable.  These homes are the ones that hold the precious memories of family photos.

Your family photos can lend a personal touch to your home decor, and create a warm, friendly environment for your guests.  Not only do family photos remind you of happy days, events, and momentous occasions, but they are also great conversation starters, and can add a sense of comfort to your home.

Here are some great tips from Home Tone for decorating your rooms with family photographs: (more…)

It’s that time of year where friends and family gather together to celebrate the accomplishment of completing 12 years of schooling.  A very rewarding goal has been reached, and it is worth celebrating!  Your daughter has found the dress that suits her personality to a ‘T’ and she can’t wait to wear it; or maybe your son has picked out a tux that enhances his handsome features.  Either way, graduation is a very special time for both parents and children.

Graduation is a significant occasion that you will want to remember; why not capture those memories?  Some of the best portraits that parents can show off in their home are those pictures of a graduated child.  It is not every day that your son or daughter will be dressed up, and it is certainly not every day that an accomplishment such as this will be achieved.  Book with Miko Photography today to have pre-graduation photos (before the day of graduation), or graduation photos the day of their actual grad.  Best of all, your friends and family will be there, so it is a great time for a family photo!  Your kids will also want photos with friends to cherish this special day.  Collaborate with some other moms and we can do a group photo shoot indoors or outdoors!
