Hello, friends. Once again, I’ve been neglecting you; there’s something about Gutenberg that uses every last drop of my writing-thinking-philosophizing brain… I’ve come up dry every time I’ve tried to draw something out for this blog.
But although I may be short on words, I am not short on pictures; in fact, I have two photo-related pieces of news I would like to share with you:
One: This is primarily for people who know me in real life, but I’ll share with all. Gutenberg is hosting its annual Student Art Show next weekend (on the 8th), and if all goes according to plan I will have some lovely 8×12 photographic prints for sale in that show. I have not yet decided how much they will be (any suggestions?).
These are the four photos I will be showing:
Anyway, I just wanted to let anyone who might be interested in owning an Erin Julian original know that this is their chance. (Of course, you are perfectly welcome to purchase prints of my photos from me at any time, but this will be an especially convenient and fun opportunity to do so.
)
Two: As you know if you have contacted me about a wedding or portrait session in the last month or two, I have not been doing a particularly good job of juggling my photography business and the demands that going to school (and just living life) have placed upon me. I apologize deeply to those who have had to wait so long for replies to their emails; but I am very hopeful that this time of delayed responses is at an end. My dear friend Kari (She’s in this photo; I will have to post a better one of her soon) has offered to help me out with some aspects of my business.
So, if you were to email Erin Julian Photography sometime in the near future, you will most likely receive a reply from Kari, who is a delight to work with and talk to. I cannot tell you how thrilled I am to have her joining me. (By the way, any inquiries regarding Erin Julian Photography should now be directed to info[at]erinjulianphotography[dot]com rather than to my personal address.)
And on that note, Erin Julian Photography’s website has undergone a few changes itself; it is now much simpler, and I believe, more elegant; I would love it if each and every one of you went and checked out the new slideshow featured there.
That’s all for now! I hope you have all been having a lovely February, and that your March is splendid as well. Talk to you soon.

Hi Erin, I’m nowhere near Oregon, but love your photography. Can I really purchase prints from you? Which ones? For how much? How exciting!
Thanks!

Oh, erne…I’m really glad you posted which photos you’re going to have up, because this will be the first art show in so many years that I won’t be at and I was so sad. But as you’re my dear friend, now I’m happy that at least I got to see your work. And of course it’s beautiful as always!

Hey Erin,
I think $50 is around where things like this might start out, there and up maybe? Depends on the style / feel of the show, who’s there.
good to read another post, hope school is going well for all its business

I have a few friends that are photographers and typically an 8×10 print goes for $20-$25. Of course I reside in the midwest so prices may be less than where you are.
Oh and I absolutely love the third photo. Keep up the wonderful work.

tell me a price and i might be forced to buy the second photo, I love it…and it’s something I’m looking to do…wait i didn’t mention what that was, what i’m looking to do is buy art by women artists and put them up in my house…
this could do the trick.

I tripped across your flickr photo stream and was captivated by your artistry, followed it here to your blog. A remarkable journey for a remarkable young artist.
I read the poignant entry about down days last Sept 11, and found myself thrown back to disasters. One of the advantages of experience is to know with a certainty that their is a far side to a disaster, a time when the pain and the feeling of doom are gone and you can look back at the strength you’ve gained a realize that you’ve grown through the experience. This will enhance your artistry, as you learn to incorporate your ever-growing humanity into your work, already astonishing as it may be.
You have an amazing ability to gather the artistry in a an ordinary scene. I look forward to seeing more of the world through your eyes and lense.

I did speak with Kari, and she is delightful! We’re looking forward to some photos with you when we’re out in Oregon this summer!
