When I first saw this album I knew it needed to be added into my lineup - at the top. This is an exquisite album, destined to become a family heirloom.
The case is handmade from leather and wood!
The album itself is made of genuine leather, with suede behind the laser-cut design.
The pages are thick and sturdy - printed on a single sheet of metallic paper for the spread - meaning no line down the middle of the photos! The pages are coated for increased longevity and protection from skin oils and fingerprints.
Please let me know if you would like to take a look at this album in person - it truly is spectacular. I know a lot of time can pass between looking at the albums at our first meeting and deciding on one for your own memories!
All of the products I offer are made in the USA!

When we plan out a Senior Session, location is usually topic number one! Autumn really wanted railroad tracks - something we just don't have in Bandon, so we decided on Downtown Coos Bay for her shoot. We had a blast and found some wonderful spots! We had so much fun that we were in our cars before we remembered about the tracks!! I'm glad we didn't forget, as Autumn rocked them!
(And, quick note on the railroad tracks: these are mothballed tracks that are no longer in use, and are in a very public touristy location. Most tracks are illegal and dangerous to be walk on and I would never put the safety of my subjects at risk for a photograph)

Who needs a fan when you have the Oregon Coast! Weather is an issue here every. single. day. I have found that if I reschedule for weather I would never work, at least not here! lol Whether it's rain or just plain wind, there is adventure every day in capturing images my clients will love no matter what! Wind however is one of the most challenging aspects of living on the Oregon Coast. I love it - it adds texture and dimension to hair and clothes - why do you think they always have them pointed at models in magazines and on the runway? It is harder to deal with real life swirling wind as the "model." It can sometimes be frustrating, and that does show through the camera sometimes. Katelynn however totally went with it! So long as your face is showing joy - I can deal with the windblown hair.
And there is nothing wrong with straight up holding your hair down. LOL Way to rock it Katelynn! Check out more from her wind blown Senior Session >>>HERE<<<

Another beautiful Bandon High School Senior! Autumn wore the most fabulous high heels for her whole session!
Autumn definitely had her "game face" on - but I managed to squeek a grin out of her. :)

Did you know you can order all kinds of cards using the images from your session with Cardas Photography? Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Valentine's, Baby announcements, Thanksgiving and LOTS more!
Simply go to your proof gallery and click the "Buy" menu in the middle right side of the screen. It will become a drop-down menu. Choose "Create a card":
You can choose between 4x8 flat cards
or 5x7 folded cards which can be designed with photos and writing on the front, inside and back of the card.
I designed both of these cards in less than 5 minutes. Prices vary for size and quantity, but they are about the same (or less!) than many of the online card making sites and use your own beautiful professional images! As always - please feel free to contact me for more information. angela @ cardasphotography.com

Shooting outdoors is a constant challenge! I shoot in the same locations often - so it's fun to me to find new and different places so everyone's photos look like their own. The other challenge is that the locations are constantly changing! We found this awesome field behind the buildings in Old Town Bandon during Jordan's session - but when another Senior wanted the same field - it was gone. Nothing but ugly dead weeds! So fleeting! Glad we were able to capture it at least once!
And just because you aren't the main target of my lens doesn't mean you aren't going to participate - I got this shot with Jordan's boyfriend, and another later on with her mama. :)
Such a lovely lady! Check out more from her session >>> HERE <<<
