Project Runway Birthday Party ~ Event Photography {Northern SF Bay Area Photographer...Shelley Hohe}

It has been a while since i have blogged, it has been a busy year with so many changes......moving, new job for my husband and our children in public school for the first time in 5 years. With that being said i wanted to to something extra special for our boy/girl twins for their birthday. You see with our kids being twins they have always had co-ed birthday parties since they shared the same friends from church, but with them being in different classes they had their own little group of friends they have made over the year. They really wanted their own party with their own friends.

This is where it gets exciting for me. With having boy/girl twins i always did the basic primary color happy birthday with balloons decor....started to get a little boring for me, especially having a background in party planning and decorating as a career. Well not this year! I had the chance to plan a "girl" and a "boy" party. I asked our kids what they wanted and my daughter knew right away she wanted something to do with fashion so we decided to do a "Project Runway Birthday Party" with her favorite colors pink and black. Not only did i have a blast planning and decorating but i was also able to incorporate my photography as one of the main events of this party. I set up my backdrop to resemble a runway where each girl had the chance to have her very own photoshoot. All the girls were so excited and had a blast.

As far as our son he wanted a "Pirate Party in the Park" didn't get any good photos :( with it being so windy my hands were used for holding things down on the tables....it was definitely a memorable party!! With all this being said i have decided i would love to start offering party planning which will incorporate my photography services as part of the party itself.

If you are interested in having me plan, decorate or just come and take photos of your upcoming party or event please contact me. It would be an honor to be a part of your next party or event!

Custom Logos~Designs {Oregon Photographer & Designer...Shelley Hohe}

Besides my love and passion for photography I also love tapping into my creative side. For so long I have always had a desire to offer graphic designing to companies. In the last few months I have been so blessed to be able to be part of a group called Soar Sisters! Soar Sisters is a group of women who are new in the photography business. We offer support, advice, resources, inspiration, positive comments and so much more that makes this group of women extraordinary! This group came about after the very talented MeRa Koh http://www.merakoh.com/ offered 3 beautiful women a Soar Scholarship http://www.soarwithmera.com/ . So many brave women submitted video tapes letting MeRa know why they felt they deserved this wonderful scholarship to help grow their business. After the 3 women were chosen the Soar Sisters group formed to offer all the other women who were not chosen a chance to Soar as well. Not only do we support one another, but we also get the chance to follow along MeRa's Soar site and partake in the same exercises as the 3 women who were chosen. It has been so neat to see the growth each photographer has made in just the last few months.

I noticed that there was a need for logos, so I decided to offer complimentary custom logo designs to 5 of my Soar Sisters! Not only was this helping them brand their business, it helped me as well. I had the pleasure of working with 5 wonderful women for the last few weeks. Getting to know them and finding out what their style was has been such an awesome learning experience for me in so many great ways. Thanks to the 5 women who gave me this opportunity, it has been such a blessing to me. I hope your logos represent you as an artist, a photographer and who you are. May the Lord guide you in your business and bless you for years to come.
