I’m happy to be back from some time off and ready to rock and roll in 2010!  I feel like I’m constantly saying how exciting things are going around here – I’m really looking forward to 2010!

I’ve been building up on blog topics ova here!  Seriously, hold onto your hats in the next couple of weeks.  Laura Bruen, Photographer Website is also getting a quick upgrade – as I believe I’ve mentioned before.  It’s not going to be a whole new layout, but the images will be refreshed, I’ve made some gallery changes and of course added a ton of work to the main website – if you are a Shoot-Scoop visitor, you’ll recognize a lot of them, but there are NEW images that will be debuting on there that have not been blogged yet – that being said, weddings that haven’t shown up here on Shoot-Scoop from 2009 are going to be showing up there first.  I have to post a few of the holiday portraits this year while it’s still cold outside as well (something is just not right about posting holiday portraits in the summer).

Stay tuned!

It’s been a great and FAST year – I apologize that Shoot-Scoop has been lagging lately.  I miss blogging!    The great news is the staff is growing here. Yay!  Announcements and blog posts will be picking up in the new year.  As well as a refreshed look for my Website, Laura Bruen, Photographer and Shoot-Scoop will be following suit.  I need to post on Laura Bruen’s CATWALK Boudoir as well.

I was pretty upset that I didn’t get a chance to blog a Holiday House Tour like last year, we added some new decor and I know that Jimmy was pretty upset that I didn’t enter anywhere to win another fabulous frying pan.  Sigh.  No time this year.  It will just have to wait to Christmas 2010.

The Studio will be closed to take some time off to spend with family and catch my breath after another whirlwind year.   Studio hours will resume on January 5 @ 10 a.m.  Unless it’s an absolute photographic emergency, calls and emails will be returned at that time.  Galleries expiring during this period have been extended.   Order fulfillment will continue for orders that will be coming in – I will still be shipping.

I’m SO looking forward to 2010!  I wish you all nothing but the Happiest of Holidays and a Happy, Healthy PROSPEROUS 2010!

I leave you off with this year’s 2010 Bruen Holiday Card

See you in 2010!

All the Best,

Laura Bruen
Photographer

This is an important part of my business and I just want to thank all of you fabulous newlyweds for being so patient.  YOU GUYS TOTALLY ROCK!   To boot, I sprained my left wrist today.  Unbelievable!  I’m wrapped up and ready to go.

I am in a flurry of shooting my favorite families, babies, canines (yes, canines – in bejeweled dresses!)  Shipping orders for the holiday season.

That being said I’m looking for some part-time holiday help.   Interested in details?  Contact me via the “Contact” above.  I offer a kick ass work environment.

Sorry Michele, this is all you’re gettin’ tonight

UGH, how annoying!
