Olive Avenue Photography is happy to announce that we have joined a wonderful organization called Red Thread Sessions. These special sessions celebrate adoption through photography. As most of you know we are an adoptive family ourselves so this cause is very close to our hearts and I am so excited to photograph other adoptive families…
January is always a busy month for me…not necessarily shooting…but with planning and dreaming. Trying to develop direction for the coming year for Olive Avenue Photography and for my personal journey in photography. I hope to be challenged and to improve my skills and my clients’ overall experience from start to finish. I still have…
sarah thank you for the comment. i’m just going to the chicago workshop…so not too far. although bali was tempting…can you imagine?!?
What wonderful learning opportunities. I love JinkyArt. Where do you get to go for her workshop? It is exciting to continue learning and growing as a photographer.
Yes, I know we haven’t even gotten to Halloween yet…but I have been getting requests to see the new holiday card designs for over a month . So here are just a few examples of the NEW designs we are offering this year. There are dozens and dozens more to choose from! Custom holiday cards…
Lots of lovely things going out to clients these days. Here is just one little beauty that was sent on it’s way this afternoon…
Olive Avenue Photography will be closed from November 24th – January 2nd 2011. We will reopen in January with our new minneapolis portrait studio space. Have a safe and blessed holiday season everyone…and thank you to all my amazing clients for your business. I truly am so fortunate and grateful to be able to do…
Enjoy your time off. I will miss the inspiration I draw from your work and look forward to seeing more in the new year. In the mean time, we will proudly send out our lovely Christmas Cards. Thanks Jess,
Jill Olson Moser
Congratulations on a very successful and busy Spring / Summer / Autumn, Jess! Your work is impeccable and your photos are priceless! Enjoy your break–refresh, rejuvenate, and rest! Enjoy the holiday season!
Enjoy the time for getting your new studio ready, Jess. Looking forward to seeing your work in the new year!
That time of year is right around the corner. I can almost taste the Christmas cookies already…I hope I have some time to actually make them this year . I’ve also have the itch to start my holiday shopping…last year I did about 80% of my shopping online and loved it…I never had to change…
I am really excited about the Holiday Cards I am offering for 2010. Any 2010 Olive Avenue Photography client may order holiday cards customized with your choice of photos from your session, colors and greeting. There are flat and folded templates available in a variety of sizes. Please contact Jess for ordering and pricing details.
Last weekend I partnered with the adorable children’s boutique Pacifier in Minneapolis for a day of mini sessions. When I say a day I mean 1 session every 20 minutes for 8 hours . I was a little nervous wondering if I could hold up for an entire day…but I actually had a ton of energy…

Well. Ok. So I guess they are not “fans” anymore since facebook changed things up. But. You can still “like” me . The Olive Avenue Photography facebook page is a great place to stay updated on news, session openings and promotions. And maybe it is time I do a giveaway over there…hmm…
like! 
Yes! Giveaways! I love me a good giveaway!!
I feel like summer has barely started…and yet here I am thinking about fall! Why? Well, because things are starting to book up for those coveted fall family sessions. I am booking a limited number of sessions through October 1st…and nothing after that date at this point. I will know if I can open up…
Youv’e read my mind!!!
Give the gift of memories. Gift certificates toward an Olive Avenue Photography session and/or prints are available in increments of $50. Each gift certificate comes beautifully wrapped in our custom packaging…a gift that will last a lifetime!
Ok, so these are my personal favorite. I mean I love myself a canvas gallery wrap. Why? Well, because they are a piece of fine art for one and unique. But mostly because they are ready to hang…no framing required. Getting things framed is a weakness of mine. I tend to procrastinate because I have…
I love these! I just ordered my first canvases and LOVE them. I can’t believe I waited so long. I got a 24×36 for my husband’s office at work and every day he tells me how much he loves it. And he is the envy of all of his co-workers.
you even take beautiful shots of canvases…. i admire you so much.
such a talent!
These albums may be mini at 3×3 in size…but they certainly make a statement! They are perfect as a “brag book” to carry in your purse….but also look lovely set up for display. Each accordion mini album boasts 8-12 photos (with photos printed on both sides) from your session and can include text and accent…
Let the world know about your new arrival in style! These top quality press printed birth announcements feature photographs from your session and are customized to your specifications. There are dozens of designs and styles to choose from…from clean and simple to funky and elaborate. Cards are sold in increments of 25 and printed on durable card stock. Flat…
I’ve always offered the digital negative CD…but they didn’t use to be this pretty . Many of my clients want their digital files…either for printing on their own or archival purposes. Each CD includes two sets of all the full resolution proofs from the session…one set is formatted for printing and another set of watermarked images for showing off…
oh what a CUTE idea. LOVE this!!!
This product is wonderful and it fits your style perfectly! Love it.
Presh. And so informative. You are rocking the best of both worlds!
adorable! i love it!
This is so gorgeous! Such a wonderful way to give it to clients! so lovely!

I will be out of the office from Thursday March 11th to Tuesday March 16th as I will be attending a fabulous photography workshop in California (to say I’m am totally excited is a bit of an understatement!!!). Any orders placed after tomorrow (Weds) will not be processed until next week. I will return calls…
And you will have amazing hair for your trip…. :0)
oh! you leave Thursday??? eeks. I was thinking Friday! Enjoy yourself and can’t wait for you to spill all!
I am super excited about some of the new products I am offering this year. There are so many incredible ways to enjoy photos from your session…besides just the traditional prints! One of my favorite products and this week’s feature is the coffee table book. This hard cover, bound book is a great way to archive…
I just gave you a bloggy award!
