involve a scene and costumes. This time, Your Eye on Photo
features “The Wood Fairy”. Please note that Elf costumes
are also available.
Your children will dress up in a fairy costume and wings, and
then walk onto the forest set. They can even sit on the giant
mushroom (always a favorite) . While they are playing, I
will capture their beautiful faces and expressions as they
marvel in a fantasy environment. Mom s, dad s and grand
parents are encouraged to observe.

Catching Up
Whew made to here... to the new year I mean. A little dented but survived. Christmas and the holiday season were sooooo busy, that it took me all this time to post this card.
I've been wanting to post this for a month now.
Some of you received this "live" in the mail. This was the cover of our family Christmas card/newsletter. We have been taking our family picture and sending out family Christmas cards for 12 years now. I have to say that this is the best family portrait we've ever had. It's being enlarged to a 24 x36 wall portrait.
This card was printed on card stock and had 3 other sides to it. more photos and little paragraphs about each family member. Just enough to up on major events but not too heavy and dry to read. It was a huge success. We usually send between 45 and 50 Greeting cards. This year we sent out 100+.
I already have 3 families booked for their christmas portrait and newsletter greeting card for next year. I will be offering this service in October and November as a special. Keep your eye peeled.
Travel wise
I was in Japan on the 1st of January. Wow what a celebration. In Japan the new year is celebrated during three days. january 1st to 3rd. It is a holiday and celebration that revolves around the temple, worshiping and family.
The city I was in is called Narita. If you travel to tokyo by plane, you will land at Narita airport. Narita is the home of one of the most important places of worship in Japan; Shinshoji temple. This temple was built in 940. It is at the heart of the new year festivities.
If you have a few hours to kill between flights, you can take a train from the airport tto Narita train station and walk from there to the temple.
On Narita's walking street, the one that leads to the temple, there were so many people one could hardly walk. All the shops were adorned in red and gold. there were lots of goodies to buy and to sample. It was a grand celebration.
Hello every body,
It's been a long while since I wrote. Why???
Well, I have been extremely busy between the wedding season, The Bridal Show, flying and especially the Cabin Fever calendar 2008 edition. Here are some highlights.
The National Bridal show
I had the pleasure of exhibiting at the National Bridal show on September 7-9, 2007 at the international centre on Airport road in Mississauga. It was an incredibly busy week end. There was buzzing, there was the famous fashion show, there were incredible exhibits.
Your Eye on Photo was lucky enough to be situated between two of the most renowned exhibitors in Toronto. Wedding Bells and Irresistible cakes. We had a lot of traffic.
We held a draw for this magnificent Pearl, Jade and SWAROVSKI Crystal necklace. 
In fact we drew 3 of them one for each day. The lucky winners were:Miss Emilie Knoechel from Toronto, Miss Aisha Sharif from Mississauga and Miss Priscilla Laramee from Caledon. Congratulations to all three of you. Not only on winning a necklace but also and more importantly on your upcoming wedding.
I would like to thank all of you who stopped at our booth and took a moment to chat.

Hey everybody, I am just starting this today. I want to keep you up on what's new here.
First, Welcome to my new web site and my new format. I've just been busy with all these changes and challenges and with the 2008 issue of the Cabin Fever Calendar. Yes... we are currently shooting the Flight attendant calendar for 2008. All the proceeds of the calendar goes to cancer research and treatment at the Princess Margaret hospital. 2008 will be the 4th issue. The first issue of Cabin Fever, back in 2005 was actually inspired by the movie "Calendar Girls".
I was one of the 2 photographers for last year's issue and this year, I've taken on the whole shoot... It's a lot of work and it's a lot of fun. Talk about running high on emotions...
Let me show you some of last year's stuff - This year's is still "Top secret"- I will let you know the launch date. Here are some of my photos that made the 2007 issue of the calendar. The title for that issue was "Flights, Camera, Action..." The story was A day in the life of a "Glamorous" Flight Attendant. LOL... I am laughing because most of us are still looking for the glamour of this job...
This was the last page of the calendar it was called "coming home
This is the beginning of the day. "Getting the wake up call"
This one was the second page called "Getting ready for my flight"
These were the good ones...
Here are some of the out takes
I have to say, this was a lot of fun. And I am very proud to have been part of this group who "flew" the project home. You will find more pics and out takes, and learn more about the cause we are all working for ; Raising $$$ for cancer research and also treatment which is very expensive at this linkCabin Fever Calendar.
Hello everyone,
I am just starting my new Blog. I just want to keep you updated on what goes on in and out of the studio. For those of you new to Your Eye on Photo, My name is Desiree. I am a flight attendant as well as a photographer. I've been combining both travel and shooting for a long time. I did mostly travel shots which ended up in calendars and books all over North America. Now I am looking to retire from flying and pursuing a full time career as a photographer. If you want to know more about my photography background follow this link to my web site About the photographer
I have opened my studio here ,in Caledon East, 2 and a half years ago. I am happy to say that sometimes I have more work than I can handle. I will eventually be a full time photographer.
If you've just stumbled upon this Web Log page, please be sure to check out the main web site for Your Eye on Photo at this link Your Eye on Photo .
Now that you more or less know where I came from, In my next post I will catch you up with some of my past and future projects.
I will look forward to your questions and comments.
Ciao for now,
Desiree
