Laura Winslow Photography {phoenix's modern photographer} bio picture

Welcome! I'm Laura--an excessive-user of smiley faces, lover of coffee + new adventures, and forever a dreamer. I once helped fly a plane over Paris, have more than a slight obsession with fun + colorful pillows, love the feeling of cool sand in between my toes + the laughter of my children. My life experiences are varied + humorous, and I would love to capture both the big + little moments of YOUR life! My work has been featured in Babytalk magazine, HGTV.com, Professional Photographer, Rangefinder, Digital Photo Pro {MpixPro Ads}, Child Style Magazine, 202 Magazine, Celebrate Magazine and, perhaps the most important place--in the hearts, walls + homes of my fabulous clients!

I am currently booking for JULY 2012 + beyond throughout the Scottsdale, Phoenix + East Valley.

I adore pretty little packaging, and I love thinking up new and fun ways to make my clients happy. I am constantly finding new products and additions to add to my packaging–I love making my clients feel special and excited about what lies beneath. The core of my packaging are my gorgeous print boxes from HB Photo Packaging in my branding colors (I have Aqua + Razzle Berry pictured here, I have also used lime and LOVE it). Inside my prints are placed inside glassine envelopes and tucked in between beautiful and delicate folds of colored tissue paper (more to come of that fun!). I use the 11×14, 8×10 and 5×7 print boxes from HB’s Boutique Line (sold separately or in 10 and 20 value packs, which I highly recommend).

I place one of several logo stickers I have on the boxes (in three different shapes) and tie it with custom printed “laura winslow photography” satin ribbon from Namemakers in several sizes.

If I am hand-delivering the items, I love using fun printed bags and tissue paper to hold everything. I also love my fun little polka-dotted drawstring bags to place wallet prints in + hang from the tote.

We all love sweet little extras, don’t we? I vary the little surprises from chocolate, a key chain, lip balm (as seen here with my new fave pink chevron mini bags from Shop Sweet Lulu to hold my business cards) or even cotton candy. I like to switch it up!
