Friday Miscallany | Athens Texas Photographer

Tuesday night, me and one of my elves (one had to substitute at the very last minute for one of the others who lost their voice!) were at the Home for the Holidays expo at the Cain Center in Athens. If you weren’t able to attend, here’s what you missed out on at the CMP booth …

Thanks to all that stopped by … and for those that joined the email newsletter list and were eligible for the ‘mini’ door prizes, you should have an email from me by tomorrow at the very latest! If not, you’re probably one of four people whose inbox was full or came back as a closed account … contact me at christina@christinamccall.com ASAP so I can send you your email!

And if you were the winner of the Scavenger Hunt Door Prize (hosted by the Chamber) of a full portrait session + the 10×20 storyboard, contact me to get that scheduled! Unfortunately the Chamber didn’t tell me who won … so call or email as soon as possible!

Yup, that was me — and yes, I have two Santa hats on. The elf refused to wear one and was grumpy when I took his picture, so I’ll be kind and not post it

… for those curious about the new bio pic at the top of the page — not the one of me just above this paragraph (click here if you’re reading this in Google Reader or another RSS reader to see) … I figured I’d go ahead and explain the smirk. That was an impromptu ‘mini headshot session’ at sunset — I had to wait for a certain elf to show up after he got out of class. Meanwhile, a certain cat saw the camera, and well, he just had to be in the thick of it. Camera ham. Pay close attention to the direction of my eyes and right hand … between shutter clicks, I was pushing him aside so Robby could get one good shot of me alone! Thus the smirk as he was giving me a “I thought you loved me look”. Course, about 30 seconds later, that facial expression changed to “Hurry up and get a good shot” as I was balancing my weight on that left leg since that trailer wasn’t attached to anything!
