Now exclusively booking maternity & newborn packages starting post-holiday and beyond! My focus and my passion starts with maternity and newborn sessions through your baby's first year. I do not divide my photographic-time with pet, wedding and event photography. Being truly specialized in what I do is reflected in the heirloom portraiture that will grace your family's walls for generations to come. My creativity, attention and devotion remains centered with what I do best. "Black and white" and color traditional studio-style or natural light sessions in the comfort of your home - I am also available for maternity boudoir or contemporary outdoor and beach sessions on-location at local parks, area attractions, and Atlantic or Gulf beaches. I currently am booked solid through December 2010. Please use the contact form to inquire about being placed on a waitlist, or the possibility of a fall 2010 mini-session. For maternity and newborn portrait session events, I advise all clients to book as early in advance of the desired session date(s) as possible. I am typically booked weeks, sometimes months, in advance — especially as the holiday season approaches each year. I highly recommend contacting me immediately at the end of the first trimester for maternity sessions, and no later than the end of the second trimester for newborn sessions. It is typically best to photograph a maternity session by week 28-34 of pregnancy, and a newborn session within the baby's first 10-14 days of life. Waiting lists are available, but only a session reservation fee payment will guarantee your reserved date and time. Extra dates are set aside in my calendar for "belly to baby" and "baby's first year" packages. Check blog's "AVAILABILITY" section for open dates and fill out the CONTACT FORM. Me on Me - from theknot.com / thebump.com "Bump Contest photographer tips": "My goal with personalized custom portrait sessions is quite different than the corporate ‘cookie cutter’ approach. I want the client to know how important they are from the moment they open their first communication from me, to the session, on through the day they open their perfectly packaged order... ...Helping a family preserve a smile, a sigh, a yawn, a kiss, or the way their baby looked at a moment in time is honestly the reason I love being a photographer." ✾ Buttons and Bows is published in the book "Ideas and Inspiration" (pages 6-7 and 66). ✾ Photographer Robyn Pollman is a recurring 'The Goods' and 'Profit Center' columnist in spring, summer and fall 2010 issues of the PPA's Professional Photographer Magazine. ✾ Photographer Robyn Pollman and Buttons and Bows Photography, LLC, were featured in the May 2010 issue of Rangefinder Magazine. ✾ Robyn Pollman was a Professional photographer presenter at the May 2010 PDN Virtual Trade Show / Photo District News Wedding & Portrait Expo. ✾ Award winning 2009 "Best Family Photographer" in Orlando by Parents Connect and goCityKids.com - a national city directory owned by MTV/Viacom & Nickelodeon/Nick Jr. ✾ Member of the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) since March 2007. ✾ I am a featured photographer at The Knot / The Nest Baby's 2008 maternity "Bump Contest".

View all 4 pages at "The Bump"! ✾ In March 2010 my work was on display at two separate professional print lab booths for the WPPI® Expo in Las Vegas. ✾ My marketing materials are repeatedly featured at Moo.com and have been on display by Moo at Photoshop World in Boston and Las Vegas, the Photo Plus Expo in New York, SWPP in Nashville, PMA 2010 in Anaheim, WPPI in Las Vegas, Focus 2010 in Birmingham, and SXSW in Austin. ✾ One of my photographs is currently on exhibit in the UK's National Trust Museum of Childhood based at Sudbury Hall in Derbyshire - an audio/visual production titled "Birth of a Child". ✾ My theme park photography appears in "A Scrapbooker's Guide to Walt Disney World". ✾ I attended Imaging USA® in January 2008. ✾ I was a member of the "2007 Publicity Committee" of the Orlando Heart Gallery. ✾ Two of my photographs were recently featured on the jacket cover and disc of the CD-single "Overwhelmed" by The Original Route 66, Inc., a NASCAR tribute, with part of the proceeds benefiting the Jeff Gordon Foundation. ✾ Award Winning Florida Photographer in Art & Design at 411marketsource - June 2007. ✾ I was a 2009 certified directory member at photographik elite photographers network. ✾ I am a member of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP). |
