Nov 24, 2008 Free Family Portrait Session, and Free 20×30 Print. Here’s how.
I am seeking a creative family for a portrait. This will not be a typical portrait but an elaborate scene that I have visioned. This will be guaranteed wall print material. Heres what I need.
1. A large family, 9-13 people
2. No children under 11 years old.
3. You must be willing to take direction and be posed.
4. It may be cold, you will have to hang in there
.5. It will be at a location of my choice.
6. I don’t care who is included, aunts uncles, brothers, sisters.
7. You all must be family.
8. Must have fun.
And always remember, just because you do not know what I’m doing does not mean I don’t.
If you are interested please send me an email at Travis@theperfectpose dot com
Only one family will be selected.
Nov 22, 2008 Free Dr. Pepper
Ok, so here is a little story I came across. Dr. Pepper made a little wager with Guns and Roses. Since GnR have always delayed the release of their albums Dr. Pepper said that if the actually released it by the end of the 2008 they would give everyone in America 1 free 20 ounce Dr. Pepper. So you can download a coupon from www.drpepper.com this Sunday. It will only be available for download for 24 hours, so make sure you get it. Coupons will be good until February of next year.

Sep 28, 2008 Sunday Sunday Sunday
Ok so I am just hangin out, watching tv. I have been adding friends to my face book account pretty much all day. I would be watching football, but Direct TV wants extra money for their HD football package. They did not tell me that when I signed up, and the customer service representative was rude, so I am only watching the local games. Anyway thats my day in a nutshell. O here is a picture of me I found. This is one of the first photos I ever took. It is a self portrait, I took it with a camera, tri-pod and one speedlight that I has holding holding off to the right.

Sep 21, 2008 First official newsletter
Hi everyone, today I sent out our first official newsletter. I sent it out to a little over 400 people. So far 110 people opened the it, and 2 people reported it as spam. (they don’t know what they are missing) I am going to send them out only once a month, so I am not trying to flood your inbox with useless garbage. I work all month on trying to deliver useful information that you can use. I am also going to offer special deals and highlighted weddings. (one that you may have attended) I may even mention you! I am thinking about putting in a guys section. Since I am a guy, I know allot about guy stuff. I have a pretty big network of people I talk to and I am always hearing the latest and greatest. So hopefully you will find my monthly newsletter helpful and informative! If you would like to be added to the list just send me an email. travis@theperfectpose.com
Thanks everyone!

Just bring it down to our studio and we will explain everything.

Sep 04, 2008 Lightroom 2.0 Review
I have been using Lightroom 2.0 beta for some time now. I have just downloaded the full version and all I can say is wow. Adobe has out done themselves this time.
Some features I like the most.
- Much faster importing photos
- Much faster exporting photos
- Selective exposure control
- 64 bit support
- Much better sharpening support
Features I like the least
- Still no keyboard shortcuts
Overall this is a great program. Adobe may have shot themselves in the foot with this one though. I see no real need to use photoshop, except for very advanced editing operations.
Sep 03, 2008 Travis Hill - Storyteller
I have been thinking about what photography means to me. I have come to realize, I am not just a photographer - I am a storyteller. Not only am I hired to photograph an event, I am hired to help my clients re-live a certain moment in their lives. How can this be done with still photographs? I have 1/1000th of a second to capture emotion, love, happiness, and for some the most important split second of their lives. This is not a task that I take lightly. I am honored to be selected for such an important moment in someone’s life. This post is dedicated to all past, present, and future clients.
Thank You, for letting me be a part of your most precious moment.Travis Hill - Storyteller
