If you are flexible, patient, interested in the photo shoot experience, and have a camera-friendly child who fits into the age groups we are looking for, please consider sending us a very recent picture of your little one. We are also on the lookout for fashionista Moms, so include a picture of yourself too! Clients of Karen Carey Photography need not send a photo, just confirmation that you would like your child considered for the shoot.

It is my honor to present the “40 under 40″ Breast Cancer Project, a powerful portrait series celebrating young women in battle and triumph over breast cancer.

For over a year, I have been working with Faith and Hope Boutique on this compelling series of portraits that celebrate the beauty, grace and courage of 40 women diagnosed with breast cancer under age forty.  The work is garnering national attention with inclusion in the prestigious Women in Photography 2008 exhibit, and nods in Rangefinder Magazine and The Photo Review.  You can read about the project here and  view a slideshow of the work here.  (note: some nudity)

You are invited to attend the opening of the exhibit at our Courage Night Event October 7th, 2009.  (Download your invitation)

Following the opening reception, the show will hang October 11th through October 29th at Photo612 Gallery in Haddon Heights, NJ as part of the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month campaign.  The exhibit will travel throughout the year culminating with a book project, currently in production.

In honor of the event, our studio is hosting a “Portrait Marathon” offering 40 portraits in 4 days for only $40!  Please come out and support the courageous women who participated in this important project and help us raise money for Susan G. Komen’s Race for the Cure.

I am very excited to be working with this dynamic team of talented professionals who share a common goal of providing exceptional client service and a unique artistic approach to every event.  My wedding photography services will be offered exclusively through the boutique with a limited number of 2009 dates available.

To kick off the new partnership, La Petite Fluer will host a mini-engagement portrait event at the boutique on Sunday March 22nd.  For more information or to schedule a bridal package consultation visit the La Petite Fleur website or call 215-576-1814.

Winter weather has officially arrived and hit the Philadelphia area hard and fast!  With temperatures   dropping and the forecast calling for snow, it is the perfect time to think about your WINTER STORYBOOK PORTRAIT SESSION! This summer I introduced my SIMPLY SUMMER coffee table albums which quickly became a client favorite, so I decided to re-create the offer with a winter weather twist!! The storybook are customized 10×10 hard bound coffee table books uniquely designed with your favorite images from the session. Call today for all of the details and to see a sample!!

Limited sessions are available, but the ideas for sessions are endless! Snowball fights, holiday tree trimming, family skiing get aways… even an indoor activity like making cookies or playing a board game make for a fabulous storybook. Get inspired this winter and together we will create a keepsake that you will cherish long after the snow has melted!

These are the days… don’t take them for granted!
