News & Updates – Virginia, DC, Maryland Photographer

ahhh! My long lost blog! Seems lately I have been pretty busy with the back end of my business. I have had lots of sessions scheduled but the wonderful April rains have delayed them all! So…reschedule, reschedule, reschedule! For those of you on this “reschedule list” it is worth the wait…promise. That nice warm sunny glow, is so so worth it.

So what else has been going on with Marta Locklear Photography?

Blush – As you have seen in previous posts my friend and I launched Blush Boudoir. The DC marathon scheduled for June 12 & 13 is almost sold out, we have a few slots still left open. We are working on a Richmond, Atlanta, NC, & NYC marathons in the near future. If you would like one in a city near you that is not posted contact us on how to get us to you!

Weddings – The wedding season is starting off with a bang this year. I am packing up and heading to yummy sandy and sunny Dreams Resorts Cancun this weekend to shoot a wedding and I can’t wait!! What a way to start the season off. With that said, I want to do more destinations…not just warm sunny coastal goodness (even though those are just divine), but all over the country. So far this year I am traveling to Charleston, SC, Cancun, Maryland, several here in VA, and one in the works in NC next year already.

Portraits – It seems this is the year for travel! I have decided to not charge travel fees if it is within reason this year. I have clients all over. Most of my clients are not local to me, and that is perfectly fine with me! A nice long kidless road trip is never something I shun :), but enjoy the chance to roll down the windows and crank up my music (something besides Jonas Brothers and Miley Cirus).

Locations I am already scheduled to visit and will take sessions are:

Raleigh NC May 29/30, and June 6/7, Charleston, SC May 31-June 4

Working on a summer NYC trip for portraits too!

Contact me if you want to book a session on any of these dates or would like to see about another location.

I will be adding mini-sessions this summer. I will find a great location and host a day of 30 minute mini sessions in a theme oriented enviroment. So stay tuned for those details to come soon.

Seniors – Booking 2010 seniors now! And still shooting those last minute 2009!

I think that is all for now! Sessions should start popping up on the blog soon, and of course some super yummy Cancun images!

Enjoy the gorgeous weather VA is going to have this weekend (of course after I leave town).

Laura - Nashville! I am a longtime blog lurker who really really wants boudoir photos done, but there isn’t anyone around here that has the same “vision” that I have for them. I’ve even looked up the airfare to come to one of your marathons…I might try NC depending on where it is because we spend always spend a week on the Outer Banks during August.

Julia - Amazing, exciting, and well deserved!

Marta, I’d love to chat with you, if possible. I’m getting ready to start doing weddings and would love to pick your brain regarding how you got started, if you work alone, equipment tips, what to do or not to do…etc.
