Switcharoo!

If you follow Becky and me on Facebook or Twitter then you know that we are expecting our second bundle of joy. Becky is currently thirteen weeks along and has been having quite the pregnancy. I am guessing that it’s going to be a girl simply by all the trouble she has been giving us already haha.

Anyways, Becky has been pretty drained and is unable to shoot a long wedding anymore. Therefore I will be finishing the year off with some of my awesome photographer friends by my side to take Becky’s place.

This news also caused us to reconsider what we will be doing for our future. We have decided that I will continue to shoot weddings while Becky focuses on raising our ever growing family and being the best mother in the world to our children. With that being said, I will be shooting solo down the road and we have gone about making one final re-branding: First was Michael Alan Photography, then was Paramour Photography and now it is just going to be plain ol’ Michael Alan Bielat. I will be focusing on portraits and high end wedding photography.

I am currently in the process of switching things over and already have a new website up and running. The link is www.MichaelAlanBielat.com so please modify your bookmarks and links accordingly. It is currently just a copy of this existing blog site but I will be slowly changing things over. Same great photography, same great service, It is just that the business will be operating under my name with myself as the sole photographer from here on out.

I want to thank you all for your support and understanding and really excited for what the future will bring.
Michael

A Special Portrait Promotion { Buffalo Portrait Photographers }

I’m a fortunate mother in that I have a husband who has an amazing ability to take photos of our son. I also realize that not everyone has this opportunity. As photographers, we photograph a portrait session and then have parents come to our home studio to pick out the photos that they want printed. However, we see all the time that there are more photos that our clients would love to have but simply cannot afford. As a mother, it would kill me to know that there were photos of my son that I’m in love with but cannot have and that will be gone for good.

Because of this, Michael and I have decided to do a special portrait promotion. For the price of $500, you will receive a photo session with us along with a disc of all the images (high-rez) and a copy release form. These images will be large enough so that you can also blow them up to any size you would like. We are hoping that with a special like this that you will be able to capture this special time in your life.

As a fairly new mom myself, I realize that time is flying! I am a person who continually puts off capturing photos of myself for various reasons. For example…I still need to lose the baby weight, or I don’t like the way my hair is and want to grow it out. I am realizing now (unfortunately, later rather than sooner) that that these are not good excuses. I wish I had more photos of my big pregnant belly or have other photographer friends of ours shoot our family portraits. I really miss these special times in my life and have very few photos to remember those times by. I have very few photos of myself with my son in the early days for fear of how I looked. Now I regret that. From experience, I am urging you to capture the moments. This promotion is valid for ANY type of portrait session. Maternity, family, newborn…you name it, just give us a call at 716-491-8854 and book your session today.

Sincerely,
~BECKY

A photo says you were happy and I wanted to catch that. A photo says, you were so important to me that I put down everything else to come watch

Speaking of family, we haven’t posted pics of our little guy (who is not so little anymore BTW) in a while so I decided to shoot his year and a half portraits entirely on film. Man I am loving film! It brings me back to when I first started photography over thirteen years ago. All I am missing now is the smell of those chemicals in the dark room ;) Probably not the most healthy thing for you but nevertheless… Enough blabbering, time for the pics.
