Hey, everyone! We’re changing hosting companies and will most likely have intermittent/sporadic/unreliable email for a day or two. If you don’t hear back right away from us, please do re-send your email or give us a call so we can take care of you! Thanks so much! … All Photos © Christian Sangree, Prints Charming...

We have something new to announce at Prints Charming Photography! Sweet printed proofs included with our newly-priced photo sessions! Online proofing works really well for a lot of people, but it’s hard to beat printed proofs that you can take with you to show your friends without having to be on a computer and online....
I saw this picture on the Strobist blog so I checked it out and thought I’d post it here, too with a link to the original picture on Flickr. Pretty amazing how powerful the on-camera flash is nowadays. =) You can click on the picture to see the original picture on Flickr if you like.
Way too many customers – particularly high school seniors – come to us kinda nervous about their pictures. Hey, our goal is always to make them fun and to have a relaxed, casual, enjoyable time, so don’t sweat it or lose any sleep! And the more relaxed you are, the better the pictures generally turn...
Saw a cool bumper sticker the other day. I can’t remember the exact quote (if you know it, leave a comment with the exact quote!) but here’s the idea: “Never forget who you wanted to grow up to be.” Pretty profound, I thought…
Hey, I know this is kinda old news since Google Reader isn’t really new anymore, but I am just loving Google Reader. I keep up with 70 blogs (and RSS feeds) that way and it’s been a huge time-saver for me. Here’s what my homepage looks like Instead of having to visit 70 sites on...
We’re excited to share some of our favorites from Lorraine & Harry’s wedding at the new “I Cross My Heart” wedding chapel out in Choctaw, OK. I like this black & white of Harry finishing up getting dressed. I was really impressed with the guys’ “getting ready” room. Check it out, they had their own...
I’m running out for a late lunch before heading to my next wedding at 4pm. Anyone want to join me for a burrito? I’ll be heading out in the next hour or so, probably. That way I’m not too hungry during the wedding. =) Give me a call if you want to grab some lunch…...
We’ve recently been really struggling over a huge decision with our business that would be a huge step in the “crazy busy” direction. I can’t really go into details, but in our struggle these last several weeks one short story (presumed fiction, but great nonetheless) has helped us to keep in mind what’s important. I...
Okay, I know right off the bat a lot of PC users are going to shut off and not read this just because of the title, but you’re missing out! I had a good laugh with a PC friend of mine recently when I told him there are two kinds of computer-users: Mac users and...
I recently did an assignment for the Chamber: a long list of photos around Edmond that they wanted for their new Directory and apparently for their MySpace, too! Pretty cool how businesses can use MySpace as well for networking, etc. We have one that you can see here if you like, but it’s been a...
It’s that time of year and everyone is wondering what they’ll do this year for Christmas cards. Well, we have available a fresh new set of 18 Christmas/Holiday cards featuring your photos that I think you’ll love. Besides Holiday cards, we have 18 newly designed birth announcement cards and 18 save-the-date cards, too! More samples...
I recently had the opportunity to photograph yet another cool couple actually GET engaged. Yep, yet another proposal/incognito engagement session! It’s such a cool idea and I’m always impressed at how many people actually think about doing this. The photos are always so meaningful and being able to see that moment in pictures for the...
I can hardly wait to share the pictures from my most recent proposal session, but it’s so late I can barely keep my eyes open. Brock & Alisha, I’m uploading them now to proof them online, so they should be online for you and ready to see sometime tomorrow morning. In the mean time, here’s...
So, my favorite point-and-shoot has been upgraded and is now the unbelievable G9. For a pretty impressive list of features and commentary, check out this post on it. *Trying not to drool on keyboard* Seriously, if you’re considering a camera purchase in the near future and you know a thing or two about how to...
For the last couple of days I’ve been scavenging pictures all over Edmond for a project for the Chamber of Commerce. They had a long list of pictures of cool things around Edmond that they wanted updated stock photography of, so I was literally all over town for two days. It was really a lot...
Michelle is one of those rare individuals who can make anyone feel comfortable and who makes me feel like a gifted comedian. Thanks for getting my odd sense of humor and corny jokes, Michelle! =) We had a great time today getting some relaxed and fun family portraits including the newest addition, baby Jantz! After...
I was tempted to title this post something about the actual subject matter, but was afraid it would seem too self-promoting. But, check it out… Someone has nominated Prints Charming Photography for Small Business of the Year at the Edmond Chamber of Commerce and it wasn’t one of us. =) We’re just one of about...
I just love the changing weather this time of year when it finally gets cool enough to work in jeans and long-sleeved shirts again for a change. Something about the cooler weather is causing spiders everywhere to spin webs that float in the breeze. It was really wild last night seeing hundreds of the thin...
We’re just a little bit excited around here since our new business cards arrived. Seven different designs so far, sporting super-cool pictures from recent senior, family, baby, child, family engagement sessions and even a wedding. Check ‘em out! We’d love to hear what you think of them! I took the pictures in our kitchen on...
