			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I started the contest for a 16&#215;20 canvas print at the beginning of the month I figured that I would get short, reviews that read something like &#8220;Yeah, she took my photos and didn&#8217;t suck.&#8221; Boy was I overwhelmed when I read them! Instead of quickie blurbs, I found deep sincere appreciation for the work I do. I feel the love clients!</p>
<p>So, I feel like I need to say thank you for the glowing praise. Each review on Google Maps goes a long way to helping me gain quality new customers which grows my business<img class="alignleft" title="16x20 canvas" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMG_4754_Fliped.jpg" alt="" width="254" height="449" />. I&#8217;ve already had new clients come specifically because of what was said. So anyone that posted a review during the contest (6-8-10 through 7-31-10) watch your mail boxes, because I will be sending you a $50 gift certificate. For some of my oldest customers this is nothing new, I have always rewarded referrals with free photos and discounts on future sessions. So please, keep sending your friends and family my way and earning a little somethin&#8217; for yourself.</p>
<p>There can only be one winner of the 16&#215;20 canvas though, and this was a hard decision.  Here&#8217;s the winning review.</p>
<div id="pp-reviews-container">
<div>
<div id="zrv3">
<div><img src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/transparent.png" alt="Rated 5.0 out of 5.0" /><img src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/transparent.png" alt="" /><img src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/transparent.png" alt="" /><img src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/transparent.png" alt="" /><img src="http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/transparent.png" alt="" /> By <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps/user?uid=100072495637856673036&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=US">Michele</a> &#8211; Jul 9, 2010</div>
<div>We&#8217;ve worked with <strong>Irene</strong> for a long time now, and can attest that every experience with her is  convenient and rewarding. She knows what we want before we want it. It&#8217;s  nice to know that we can ask her to capture a memory and not worry at  all that the essence of what we value will be communicated in her work.  And whatever creative idea we have, she&#8217;s able to make it happen. The  quality is superb, the price is great, and the experience is fun. We&#8217;ve  recommended her to countless people and wouldn&#8217;t hesitate to do so  again.‎</div>
<div></div>
<div>Thanks Michele for referring people over and over. At last count I have done 5 weddings from your referrals and sold prints to dozens of extend family members and friends across the country.</div>
<div></div>
<div>If you&#8217;ve had a positive experience as a wedding I&#8217;ve shot, or I&#8217;ve done portraits for you, please add your reviews to google maps, and tell your friends. Thanks again to everyone to who wrote a review.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently Zaidy Barradas, a student of Kamiak High School, visited my  studio for a mini session and applied to be a Senior Portrait  Representative. This years Reps are a part of the class of 2011 and it’s  their job to spread the word about Irene Jones Photography.</p>
<p>Here’s a few images from her session.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-141-copy.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-397" title="ij-141 copy" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-141-copy-680x1024.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="903" /></a><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-68-copy.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-396" title="ij-68 copy" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-68-copy-680x1024.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="903" /></a><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-57-copy.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-395" title="ij-57 copy" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-57-copy-680x1024.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="903" /></a><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-43-copy.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-394" title="ij-43 copy" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/ij-43-copy-680x1024.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="904" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/5x7-card-front-2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-64  aligncenter" title="5x7 card front-2" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/5x7-card-front-2.jpg" alt="" width="553" height="393" /></a>This week many of my sessions from the past year are receiving updates to their online ordering site.  A selection of custom cards are being posted as well as photo collages.  Cards are available in flat and folded options and all text can be customized with your personal message.</p>
<p>These cards are perfect for Graduation Announcements, Thank You cards after a wedding, Save the Date postcards if you&#8217;ve recently had an engagement session, Birth announcements, or Birthday invitations!</p>
<p>Plus I am happy to make changes to any of the designs posted upon request. Ordering is simple, just add the size and quantity (groups of 25 cards) to your cart when ordering prints.</p>
<p>The photo collages are a terrific way to present a variety of different images. Each collage is formatted and ready for printing on canvas.  All of our canvas prints are &#8220;gallery wrapped&#8221;. This means that the image area extends around the sides of the wooden frame making it ready to hang the moment it arrives. These collages can also be used as photo cards but they are limited to cards with square dimensions.</p>
<p>If you have any questions about ordering these products please email irene@ijphoto.net or call 425.367.4781.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>High School Seniors this post is for you! Those graduating in 2011 may feel like it&#8217;s a long time before they are free from the shackles of public school but the truth is that you are closer then you might think. In the next few months as your Junior year wraps up you&#8217;ll move into a summer filled with the a giant to do list before you even say the words &#8220;upper class-men.&#8221; One of those things is far more entertaining then the others: Senior Portraits.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/md_1749ed.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-58" title="md_1749ed" src="http://blog.ijphoto.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/md_1749ed.jpg" alt="" width="683" height="1029" /></a>This post is a casting call for Senior Reps. I am looking for a students to participate in this years program. Here&#8217;s how it works:</p>
<ol>
<li>Call Irene Jones Photography and set up an interview time. Our studio number is 425.367.4781 and the office is open Tuesday- Saturday from 9am to 8pm.</li>
<li>Interviews are half about getting to you know and seeing if you&#8217;re a good candidate to represent Irene Jones Photography and part test shoot. We take a few photos to see how well you work in front of the camera.</li>
<li>Upon being selected we set up an appointment for your Senior Session and print up your Rep Cards. It&#8217;s now your job to motivate your friends and fellow classmates to book also.  With each referral you&#8217;ll earn credit towards your own session. When five friends book your session is free! If more then five referrals book you&#8217;ll earn credit towards your print purchase. You can use your Rep Cards and our website to track referrals and your progress towards a free session.</li>
</ol>
<p>In case a free session wasn&#8217;t enough to convince you, here are a few things past customers have said about working with us.</p>
<h3>&#8220;We Love Irene Jones Photography! [Irene] and Terice are amazing. We loved working with them for our session&#8230; We all laughed the whole time and they got tons of photos.&#8221; Charles and Ashley Lundin</h3>
<h3>&#8220;Just got my photos from my mom&#8217;s house today and I love them. Can&#8217;t wait to hang them on the wall.&#8221;  Stefanie Buxel-Florenzen</h3>
<h3>&#8220;I absolutely love all the photos you took of Tyler for senior pics, you are truely the best!&#8221; Lorie Clark</h3>
<h3>&#8220;Jourden&#8217;s senior pictures turned out awesome! Thanks for your effort and work ~ Joury was thrilled to use you as her photographer.&#8221; Karlyn Garcia Girnus</h3>
<p>Irene Jones Photography also has a wonderful collection of products including Graduation Announcements, Photo Collages, Gallery Wraps, and Photo Books.  Plus favorites from every session are available for download and use on Facebook and other social media websites.</p>
<p>Call today to schedule your interview!</p>
