Issue Eight
May 2008
Greetings!

As of this past weekend, summer is officially here and the nice weather arrived to prove it. This month's newsletter is to inform you of what is happening this summer at Bentley Waters Photography. And yes, I changed the format of the newsletter. I felt my previous format wasn't very easy to read and the format wasn't flexible enough so I decided to switch it up a bit.


Here's to kicking off a wonderful summer!

We Are Moving

As most of you may know, we are moving to Chappaqua, NY in Westchester County hopefully by the end of June. Spread the word to your Westchester resident friends and relatives. I'm looking forward to meeting and photographing new families living in the burbs.

We have some time in between closings and therefore are temporarily moving to New Jersey. Please have patients if I take a little longer than usual to get back to you over the next month. I will be a little unsettled.

Summer Shoots in NJ, NY, CT and LI
Summer is the best time to get your holiday photo out of the way, as well as document some time with your family while it's nice and warm out. I will be shooting throughout the tri-state and the schedule will go a little something like this:

June - New Jersey Shoots
While we are waiting for our new house to be ready, as mentioned above, temporarily I'll be in New Jersey (the Summit, Chatham, Short Hills area) for most of June. Please spread the word. I would love to photograph a few NJ residents.

July - Hamptons Shoots
I will be in the Hamptons for the month of July, returning occasionally to shoot in NYC or Westchester. Please call me to book your summer beach shoot on the shores of the Atlantic. I still have some availability.

August - Westport and the Hamptons
The second weekend in August, August 8th, 9th and 10th, is devoted to Westport, CT shoots and I still have a couple spots open. I then plan to return to the Hamptons from roughly August 10th - 21st.

Good Stuff


I'm reading The Creative Family, by Amanda Blake Soule. I highly recommend checking it out and visiting her blog. She has wonderful ideas for family activities. 

And then to honor the arrival of summer, my favorite guacamole recipe:

2 ripe avocados
juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup red onion
1/4 cup tomato
2 tablespoons cilantro
salt

Chop all ingredients and mix together. Yummm.
 
Coming Soon

A new and beautiful custom designed blog!
