I love Diet Coke and Mexican food. I love the Phoenix Suns and can't get enough of Dr. McDreamy. I'm a military brat and have a tendency for sarcasm.   I'm a sucker for a good love story - real or scripted. I cry at weddings and you can assume I will probably tear up at yours. I am passionate about my family as I am about yours. Tana Huffman Photography is my lovechild; my passion - not just my job.

This blog is just one of my online homes and serves as my journal - mostly professional, but with personal touches as well. I want your experience to be memorable and want you to feel like you know me before we even shake hands. I think you'll realize that I'm just like you and once you are my client, you are my friend - and you'll find that we'll have a great time together!

So, thank you for taking a look at my blog. Take off your shoes, take a look around and leave a comment or two - they sure do make my day!!!

Just a quick update that I will be out of the studio the week of March 8-12.  I will be attending the annual WPPI convention in Las Vegas with my many talented photographers and friends.  I will be checking emails and phone messages sporadically, but with the long year it's been, even thus far, I'm going to try to take some time out to enjoy a mini-vacation and am going to attempt to de-computerize myself as much as possible.  Have a wonderful week and I will begin the blog posts upon my return.

 

Wish me luck...... I'm taking special half-dollars from Nyah to bet with!  :)

The last few years have been a wonderful, wild roller coaster.  I have learned through trial and error where the studio weaknesses and strengths are; what direction I want this business to take and even at times, areas that I need to concentrate on more than I currently do.  I've discovered those areas of my business that I enjoy and excel at; and those that I need to devote more time to.  I've also had to be humble in learning where I need help and that it's okay to delegate.  (Did I just say that outloud?!)  *gasp*  It's been an insightful journey - one that would not have been possible if not for the endless support and encouragement from my friends in business and each day, with their encouragment, I become more of a dreamer and optimist at this wonderful business I've started.

So as 2010 swings into full gear, there are a lot of changes for TH Photography that have been in the process since late last year.

(1) the new website!!  We've had some coding issues that prevent it from looking 100% to my vision), but it's being corrected and I still think it is wonderful nonetheless. The current site will remain devoted to engagements and weddings.

(2) a new blog!!  The team at Flosites is amazing as always and have worked tirelessly to bring my custom blog vision to life!  I've signed off on the final revision and we hope for an early April launch!  It will carry the simple, clean-lined and fashion-forward feel that my website and branding will, and I'm excited to see all of your reactions.

Here is a sneak peek at one of the layouts you'll see in the new design:

 

Now..... I know the first thing you are asking yourself -  Tana  is a horrible blogger!  Why the new blog?  Well my friends, because Tana Huffman Photography is getting a facelift.  And blogging is one of the first things to get "plumped" up!  Monthly contests and prizes will be coming along with updated photos from sessions.  

(3) new studio direction!! - Tana Huffman Photography has primarily focused on weddings and engagements over the years.  One of the biggest transitions for Tana Huffman Photography is the branch-off of THPhoto to include more boudoir sessions, family and children sessions and most excitedly - HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS!  There will be a new, dedicated website for our portraits and the new blog will showcase all the new promotions and campaigns that TH Photography will be embarking on!

(4) Office help!!  Though I love my job more than anything and my clients keep me motivated, the business is ready to propel forward and I need help to keep us in flight!  I am instituting a new intern program, will be hiring an office manager as well as an associate photographer!  The full details will soon be advertised, but I am excited and know that the changes will make your TH Photography experience that much better!  What this means?!  Quicker turn-around time; faster email and phone response; better studio availability and more blogging!!  Hooray!

~~~~

So, for my current clients who are nothing but an undending source of inspiration and love to me - and to my future clients who I cannot wait to meet - 2010 is going to be a great year and I'm so excited to continue down this road with you all.  XOXO

I cannot believe it is already February - feels like just last week that I was taking down my Christmas lights.   Oh wait!  Maybe it was last week!!  ;)

Speedy calendars and all, but I wanted to remind my lovely clients that a deadline is fast approaching.  As most of you know, I will be leaving this weekend for a wedding out of the country and will be gone for one week.  Therefore, to meet my vendor deadlines, this week is the last chance to get your Valentine's Day orders in.  Most boudoir session orders have been placed, but for those who have expressed interest in placing product orders, this is my friendly reminder that this Friday, February 5th, is the last day to place your order to ensure Valentine's Day delivery.  If you have any questions, please give me a call.
