The Low Down on Group Photographs

Group images will be edited and uploaded before Sunday at 11pm and I will be providing each teammate with a 4x6 of the group shot at no charge as a token of my appreciation for such a fun group!



Frequently Asked Questions

"I've already ordered my prints/disc...when will I get my stuff?"

Delivery will be on Monday October 24 (one week from this Monday) for all orders placed and paid in full on Monday's "Preview Day".



Frequently Asked Questions

"I am so confused, I want everything... My head is spinning with ideas of putting one of the custom designed t-shirts in my little dahling's Christmas stocking, giving the grandparents a deck of customized cards and getting a tote bag for myself...  
I've added it up, I've spent a fortune and 
I haven't even added the prints yet... I'm freaking out!!!"

Okay, well .. now let's don't freak out :)  
Though I've been photographing since the mid 90's; I've only recently begun to do it to "feed myself" :)  Therefore I'm quite open to the idea of things such as referral bonuses and the like.  If while adding up your wish list, you have chosen what you feel to be a tremendous amount of "extras", just email me at kjacksonnoggin@gmail.com and tell me what's on your wishlist and we'll figure something out.  



Frequently Asked Questions

"Money is tight right now and I would like to order later on.  
For how long will the proofs be available online?"

The proofs will remain online forever and you may order and reorder at any time.  The packages that have been created for this shoot will remain online for the foreseeable future and will only be removed or adjusted if  prices from the lab require me to do so.


Soccer at Civitan - Massac County Warriors

I had a blast yesterday afternoon chatting with the parents of the Massac County Warriors and shooting a few more goodies of the Warriors, themselves! 
(Which I'll upload to KCoJax Candids on Facebook later this week)

KCoJax Candids ~ the 1st of a Few Updates...


I had an incident in which my camera bit the dust this summer. There've been a couple of backup cameras I was able to borrow here and there ... which has been a tremendous help, however it kept me from actively booking shoots, I just took the ones that fell in my lap...but didn't do any marketing. 

It turned out to be a blessing in disguise though because it's allowed me some time to set up my website and facebook page as well as set up KCoJax.SmugMug.com so that you fine folks have more options in purchasing your photographs.

In the past, I've charged one price which covers the sitting fee, photographs on a disc sized to 4x6 and a copyright release.  This KCoJax.SmugMug.com change will allow me to lower the sitting fee considerably in expectation of purchase, whereas before I wasn't affiliated with the subjects purchase end in any way.

Here's the lowdown ...
http://kcojax.smugmug.com/ will take you to a page with TWO departments, one of which is KCoJax Candids (hired shoots, by people such as yourself-divided by category) ... the other is KCoJax Local Flavor, which includes local landscapes and scenery; with the most recent shoots in the *Featured Gallery* bar. 


I've spent the last three days glued to my laptop tying up some of the loose ends on pricing, uploading and such ... and there are still some design tweaks that I want to get done in the next few weeks, but I'm ready to share the link and let you folks in on it ... So when you finish up reading below I hope you'll run right off to www.KCoJax.SmugMug.com and take a look!!


I've made an effort to make the prices affordable based on my cost and I'll be working on packages 

(especially for children's shoots) in the coming days and weeks... 

You can still follow KCoJax Candids on Facebook and share the link as often as you wish.
You never know ... if I notice you've shared it a few times,
you might receive a photo credit in your email in-box!! :)




Giraffes and Bridges and Sunsets... Oh My! - A Downtown Paducah Photo Blog -


***

I had the opportunity over the weekend to make a spin through Downtown Paducah with a friend and take a few shots.  I love Downtown Paducah - it's such a quaint little place - very rich in history ... 

I took a few unplanned shots while crossing "the blue bridge"...
I'd give my eye teeth to get in the middle of that bridge for about 20 minutes with traffic stopped...
The two-span arch bridge is the I-24 bridge.
In the photo below you can barely see the trusses of the Metropolis Bridge (completed in 1917).
If I'm not mistaken, the smoke-stacks are Electric Energy, Inc - (Coal power plant - Joppa, IL)


***

My favorites came from Downtown Paducah though ...
 my initial intention had been to shoot the Irvin Cobb building and the steeples with the sun setting, but my chosen perch left me with a multitude of telephone poles and wires in the shot - and with the sun setting fast, I decided I would have to wait for another day to get the shot I'm after...




The absolute best shots o' the day (in my opinion) were a suggestion of my pal
and came from the Mentor House Gallery at 332 North Sixth - 



With this 
being my total FAVE of the day!
