Hi friends!  Recently I was featured in “Shoutout Atlanta” and got to share a few words about my work and my story. I have done several workshops in Atlanta (the home base for Imaging USA) and have taught at several conferences / conventions as well!  You can view the article here: https://shoutoutatlanta.com/meet-caralee-case-artist-professional-photographer/  I will have the printed article in the studio soon, and for any of my clients that are interested you can come get a free copy!  There are LOTS of cute babies featured in the article so it’s possible that your baby is famous!  Ha Ha Ha!  JK   I had SO much to share and say it was really difficult to narrow it down to just a few small paragraphs.  I’m grateful for the opportunity and feel completely humbled to have even been interviewed!

Hello photography friends!!!!!!!  I’ve had lots of inquiries about small group newborn workshops and other educational opportunities I’m offering THIS YEAR, especially since I had to cancel 7 workshop dates and locations in 2020 due to Covid.   I’m overjoyed to announce that I will be offering 2 workshops this year!!!!!!  In June 2021 I’ll be in Georgetown Kentucky, and then in August I’ll be in Missouri at the Intuition Backgrounds by Becky Gregory studio!!!!!  Information on both workshops and what is included can be found here.  I hope to see some new AND some familiar faces this year.  Contact me with questions or to arrange a payment plan, I am more than happy to help!

Have you ever tried using a digital background?  I love that they can be so quick and easy as seen in this video tutorial.  In this case, I’ve designed the images with my props, flowers, greenery, layers, bowls, furs, etc, and photographed it with my big beefy camera.  All YOU have to do is insert your own newborn photo! (Examples below)  Today the NEW Holiday Digital Backgrounds are available!!!!!!!!  I love traditional Christmas colors like red and green, but I also like to use different, fun and unique color combinations to add variety to the holiday season portrait options.

New to digital backgrounds?  Here is a quick VIDEO TUTORIAL and some visual samples of how digital backgrounds work:

This design below is SO MUCH FUN!!!!  I added Christmas decorations to 2 different versions of this background, and then took it all away to create a simpler year-round option:

Here are some other samples of the NEW Holiday Designs in use:

Happy creating!!!!

I cannot even begin to explain all the fun that I had at the two Perryville, Missouri Workshops at the Intuition Backgrounds Studio. First of all, it was fun to see how the backdrops are printed and shipped. It was fun to be able print a custom backdrop to use at the workshop. And it was awesome that we got to shop from Intuition’s prop stash and hundreds of Birdie Baby Boutique headbands. Our newborn workshop models were beautiful, all the students were able to take pictures and practice by my side, and…these girls were FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will never forget this awesome group of ladies. #FriendsForLife Enjoy a look at some of the gorgeous models we had the pleasure of working with during the workshop:

Kembree ~ 1 week old

Andie ~ 6 days new

Sawyer ~ 7 days new

Kru ~ 7 months old
