Website galleries updated - finally!
I am so excited to announce that I have updated my website galleries with all new pictures! Come on over to www.carrieprewitt.com and check them out! I have been meaning to do this update for many months and finally decided to just get it done during my Christmas break. I know my clients have a tough time choosing which pictures to buy, but believe me, it is much harder for me to pick the best of the best of ALL my zillions of pictures from zillions of sessions. It was a big job but I am so glad to have it done!
And for all of you out there who have your “favorite” pictures from my original galleries - don’t worry, they have not disappeared. I just put the new pictures first and left the old pictures there. It has been a revelation to me that people have become attached to certain pictures, but it happens a lot. Every time I mention to anyone that I’m working on a gallery update, they say things like, “Oh, please don’t take out that picture of the girl in a tutu or the girl on the steps or the boy on the chair or the kids by the gate…”. I had no idea these images were resonating with people so much. I even had one person on a photography forum write, “You can update it if you want to, but I swear I will never visit your site again if you take off that picture of the girl in the tutu by the house with the little boy running away.” I guess I should name the pictures to make it easier for people. For instance, I could call that popular image “Girl in Tutu by House with Little Boy Running Away.” What do you think?
Here are a couple of screenshots from my new galleries (this is to tempt you to go over and look at them):
So OK people, just face the fact that I have taken about one zillion pictures since I first launched this site, and the new ones are at least as good, if not better, than “Girl in Tutu by House with Little Boy Running Away”.
I guess it’s like when your parents get new furniture. Even though you know they have needed a new couch for ten years, you were still sort of attached to the old one, even though the springs were broken and there is still a Kool-Aid stain (sorry Mom) on the underside of one of the cushions so it can never be flipped over.
I look forward to a bright new year, with bright new faces and wonderful new friends. And zillions more pictures.

Merry Christmas to my family, friends, clients, and readers everywhere! I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the love and support you have given me this year. It has been a wild, exciting year for me - my first full year in business! Without all of you I could not have done it.
So to my husband who has been so encouraging, and who was the first to say that I should be a photographer and do what I love - thank you. To my two beautiful children, who are always my light and my inspiration to be a better person. To all the grandparents, who are always there for me and for their grandchildren, and who have always supported me in any endeavor. To my very first clients a year-and-a-half ago, who trusted me enough to capture memories of your children - thank you for believing in me. To all my new clients - thank you for allowing me into your lives and for being such wonderful people to work with. To all my readers around the world - thank you for connecting to this little blog. To all the other photographers I have met, online and in person - thank you for the constant inspiration.
Today I had the luxury of doing a Christmas session with my own two children. They were so sweet and even let me brush their hair, only you can’t tell with little Caroline. Her hair has such a mind of its own! But she loved her new outfit (I couldn’t resist it when I saw it at the store!) and prissed around in it all day long - she is even now sleeping in her sparkly shoes. William was wearing a sweater my mom made for him last year and I was so surprised it still fit - he has grown so much! For this session we just stayed at home in our own backyard, even though the famous steps belong to my neighbor.
