I had the pleasure of meeting up with the FABULOUS Melanie Neumann with Tampa Bay Massage Therapy! Melanie is located at 7158 Seminole Blvd. in Seminole, Florida. (727.392.2458) and is the most AMAZING massage therapist and doula that I have met!!
If you are looking for total relaxation and improving you….then this is the place!! With over 16 years in the field Melanie specializes in unique techniques such as: Neuromuscular, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Relaxation, Trigger Point Therapy, Myofascial Release, Pregnancy Massage, Bamboo Fusion, Sport Massage and more!!
One BRAND NEW type of massage that I haven’t heard any other massage therapist talk about and offer is Bamboo Fusion…The bamboo is heated and used like extensions of the therapists hands. Bamboo Fusion reduces tension, relieves tightness in muscles, stimulates blood & lymph flow, regenerates and revitalizes, relaxes the body and mind and a extreme sensation of well-being!
Pregnancy….Are you pregnant and in need of the most amazing doula???? Melanie is seriously the most amazing doula I have ever met and I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that I know that is pregnant and looking for a great doula!
Call her for an appointment today! You won’t be sorry you did! Treat yourself to a better you!!
I met Michelle at The Tampa Bay Massage Therapy owned by Melanie Neumann for a prenatal massage a couple of weeks ago! We hit it off and she expressed she wanted a really special maternity session with her boyfriend Rick who was coming home from out of state from work to spend the weekend with her and if we could do the maternity session as soon as he came home…I was really super excited about photographing her maternity because she is so sweet and we have so much in common…Believe it or not, even though I photograph ALOT of coastal sessions….this was my FIRST coastal maternity session!! Wooooohooo~~!! Check out these amazing photos of this gorgeous couple!!
Meet the Schroeder Family! Their family all came together for the Thanksgiving holidays and before heading back to LA and Austin we just had to do a family photo shoot! This photo shoot was such a blast because well just look at the photos! The photos definitely speak for themselves! This family is definitely not into the posey posey boring family photos so this is as raw as you are going to see them as they unfold all of their most authentic personalities!
So anyone close to me that knows me, knows that at times I can be nosey…hahaha! while I was photographing Genevieve’s family at the Venoy, these beautiful newlywed’s and their photographer (unknown) came onto the beach for their wedding photos…I felt like being nosey from a far distance and got this shot! hahaha…couldn’t resist! Looking forward to figuring out who this photographer is so I can give him this photo for his marketing!
Awww….cell phone in the sand! You go girl! hahaha!
So this is a photo I came across this morning from the late 70’s. Maybe even 1980. This was my mom when she got married…I couldn’t help but notice the oldness of the photo and the reddish tones so I scanned it to my computer and with the latest photography software that I use I was able to bring it back to life and restore it as if someone had just taken it yesterday!
I am going to start offering photo restoration in my business this year. I feel that it is important because I am really trying to promote the value of preserving your memories while you have them. Apart of preserving your memories also entails preserving your past memories too…I think ALLL of us have old photographs like this one that might need some work…. Here are some of the services that I can offer you related to photo restoration:
- Take an old photograph you give me and renew it back to life!
- Put a digital copy of all of your old photographs to DVD so you can have a backup or can use for emailing and social networking
- Restore an entire wedding album
- Restore an old children’s album
- Custom albums of your photo restored images (where you give me a collection of photographs to restore, I restore them, save them as digital files and custom design a brand new album for you with the latest albums in the industry to give your old photos a whole NEW meaning!!
- Any colored photo you may have may be converted into b&w or sepia or retouched for any imperfections!
- You can order new prints with 10 different photo paper styles I offer! Linen and Metallic papers are my favorite!
Why is photo restoration important? It is important because yes, even though your photos or albums you possess or have inherited maybe even from generation to generation are getting older, you still want those treasures to last a lifetime! Once the process of photo restoring is over with, you will get back your old photos and albums of course but you will take with you a whole new treasure that you can put out on display and treasure for 100 more years!
Also, it is important that if you have ANY old photographs to consider getting them digitally put to DVD….Accidents, unfortunately happen! God forbid there is a fire or some natural disaster that wipes away your home at least you can have a DVD of your treasured photos to put away in a bond box or special fire proof or waterproof place. I too will always have ALL digital copies so if something also happened, a DVD would remain in your client folder!
If this is something you would be interested in doing, please email me or give me a call to talk about your project and we will go from there! No photo project is impossible to do…It will be not only fun for me to see your photos come back to life but you will have a blast seeing the process too!!!
What an amazingly, fun family! They came to Florida on a vacation all the way from Chicago! I was so honored that they picked me to be their family photographer out of many websites they viewed before coming to Florida. We had such a blast over at Honeymoon Island! Amazingly for a Friday it was literally a ghost there which was great for us because we felt we had the entire beach to ourselves! Maybe the quietness of the beach has something to do with the increase in beach entrance fees they are charging being that Caladesi Island was rated the #1 top beach in the US this year~! haha…We couldn’t have asked for a better day either! Lila was sooo amazingly adorable, she stayed super bubbly and smiley for me the entire hour we were out there! I cannot wait for the summer time to go for a week and visit Chicago where the Massey family are from to offer more amazing photo shoots! Check out the photos below and feel free to leave your comments!
Lila was telling me she was 1 years old with her finger pointing up! Everytime daddy would say how old are you Lila she would put one finger up! hahaha soo cute!
Then when she did put her finger up to tell me she was 1, her daddy would say “YAAAAY”!!! So she started to clap!
Special thanks to Kyle Mobley from the American Cancer Society for choosing me to be the Breast Cancer’s official photographer for the day in Tampa for the Breast Cancer walk! I was so happy to volunteer time for such a worthy and respectable cause! I think each and every one of us knows some one who had or has breast cancer and it certainly seemed like ALL of Tampa Bay was out there supporting!! Thank you to all of the teams that donated and volunteered their time as well to make this day so special for not only the survivors, but for everyone including the loved ones that we have lost to this type of cancer… Here are some photos from the day!
