The Castro Family

Sorry I have barely posted anything! we've been so busy! we spent the weekend in Alabama to spend some time with my family, and we got back sunday night. We had the opportunity to shoot a family photo session while being there! The family is from my home church and it was kind of like a last minute thing. But we got ready really quick, we prayed, and we jumped into it! We shot around 400 pictures! It was so fun!!!! We tried different things, and I loved seeing them laugh and have a good time! You can see in the pictures how they were enjoying :D And we enjoyed it even more! I love the colors they were wearing!!!! It made the pictures so colorful!

Thank you guys for such a great time with you!!!! We can't wait to send you all the pictures!!!

A little update






I know it has been a while since I´ve posted anything. I´ve kept myself very busy! I´m working on my branding, designing things, editing pictures, etc. But I really enjoy doing all this! Today I received some Christmas cards and birth announcements that I ordered. I absolutely love them!!! They turned out better than I expected! So that encouraged me even more to design others, lol. This one I posted can actually be used for many purposes: announcements, party invitations, christmas cards, etc. And it gives you the chance to put 4 pictures in case you can't decide what your favorite picture is! It's also perfect for families! Plus, you can change the colors to any color you want!

Don´t forget about the discount if you order yours before november!

I would like to post a slideshow with the wedding pictures, but I´m going to have to wait till next month. I want to do the very best, so I´m waiting till I go to the seminary in Nashville, where I know I will be able find good stuff! I´ll keep posting new pictures every once in a while!

While all this, God has been blessing us greatly! He keeps answering prayers, and that increases our faith in Him! He is so faithful and merciful! I started reading a book! God blessed me with a great book that is helping me to be the best help meet for my husband! And honestly, it´s helping me a lot, and everyday I´m more excited about reading more and more books! Nate loves reading, so that`s encouraging me even more. Plus my aunt Pilar, who loves reading, is encouraging me too :D

Hey! As you guys saw, we have a little poll thing! We would like to see what photographt style you all like, so feel free to give your answer!!

Thank  you!! Have a great day!

We need high school representatives



Hello again!!!
We just wanted to let you guys know about a few promotions we are having!!! Since this is the perfect time to get senior pictures taken (not too cold, not too hot, not too early, and not too late!), we are offering special packages for seniors. But first of all, we are trying to find representatives (juniors or seniors in high school) that will be able to refer our services to other juniors or seniors. We need a girl and a boy, and they would receive a complimentary session with us and a web-sized image from the session so they can use it for their facebook, or blog! And for each referral, we would give them a $20 print credit! It sounds like a good deal, doesn't it?
Feel free to e-mail us at info@nateandaranchaphotography.com, or call us at (256) 684-1076 if you're interested or if you need more information!!!
Check out our website if you would like to see more pictures of our portfolio! Have a good day!!!

Christmas cards!!! And don't forget to check out the new gallery on our website!





I know what you're thinking! what is this girl doing designing Christmas cards in August! is Christmas sooner in Spain? hehe, no, but it would be cool! I know I get too excited about Christmas, but this time I was just thinking ahead for everybody!!! Since this is my first Christmas as a married lady, I've been thinking about doing some cool Christmas cards to send everybody with a picture of us. Actually, I've always loved to do that and I finally can!!! We can send them as a new family! I actually enjoy designing, and I'll probably be working on more designs! So if you are interested on getting some Christmas cards, with us you can get 2 things done at one time! The pictures and the cards!!! I'll be designing cards for families, children, babies, couples, etc. to be able to offer a variety of products! I want you to be able to choose the style you want! I love modern designs, so I thought I would try that first! But feel free to ask me about other styles! And guess what? we are offering a 20% discount on Christmas cards if you order them before November :)
