Hello Everyone and Welcome to 2012!!  I can’t believe it’s already here and we have so much to look forward to this year!!

Before I explain a little about myself  I am in need also for models for my Denver Workshop this Thursday and Friday!  They need to be under 2 weeks old and will receive 5 free high resolution digial images for their time!  If you know anyone please shoot me an email at c_k_photography@yahoo.com 

Now to introduce myself

For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Cherise Kiel!  I am a mother of 3 beautiful children (7, 4 & 2) and a wife to an wonderful man and soldier.  I am also the Owner/Photographer at Cherise Kiel Photography and I also put on Newborn Posing Workshops at Precious Beginnings Newborn Workshop.

I absolutely LOVE what I do and am honored when my clients allow me to be a part of such important times and trust me to capture those memories for them.  I am a natural light photographer, but I did work in a high end portrait studio for 4 years, so I am very familiar with studio lights as well.

I decided to put on newborn workshops last year when I myself was looking at attending one to improve my skills and get some fresh ideas.  However, when I saw the prices of those workshops, I just about died, lol!  As a small business, I just didn’t have $1200-$1500 (plus travel costs) to attend a 1 day workshop   So after much thought and feedback, I decided to put one on myself, and make it as affordable as possible for us photographers who want to learn and grow without breaking the bank.

The Precious Beginnings Newborn Workshop is a 2 day workshop full of information on safety, posing, soothing, handling, marketing, pricing, post-processing and much more!  There is a TON of information provided as well as live models, and for ONLY $600!!!  This is such an awesome deal!  Below is my schedule for 2012!  Since I am an army wife and I never know when my husbands schedule is changing, these are the only dates available for this year!  I have opened up all of my dates for registration, and it’s never too early or late to schedule!  I am only taking 8 spots per location to ensure more hands on time and a better learning experience   Once the spots are filled, they are gone, so don’t hesitate!!

2012 Schedule

January 5-6: Denver, Colorado

March 12-13: Dallas, Texas

May 28-29: Seattle, Washington

July 9-10: Virginia Beach, Virginia

September  6-7: Mobile, Alabama

November 10-11: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Thank you so much and I hope to see you at one of my workshops!!

Below are some photos from my Ohio Workshop this past October!!
