the ilbe family
After a referral from a great photografriend, I got to meet and photograph this fantastic family including their newest addition, baby Max. They were so wonderful letting me into their home with open arms and open hearts. They were fun, kind and just a pleasure to be around and to photograph.
This was my very first shoot for 2012 and it was a great way to start off a new year! I came back from vacation all ready and excited to shoot again after a long (but great) holiday season.
As it turns out, poor baby Max had to have emergency hernia surgery less than a week after our session. He’s doing okay now, recovering at home with some pain and discomfort according to mom. He really likes being held and if the pictures above are any indication, he’ll be better in no time flat! So nice meeting all of you! Looking forward to our next session already!

winter mini sessions
If you received the bsquared newsletter yesterday (and if you didn’t you should sign up right now on the left side of the blog) you’ve read that the winter mini sessions are available for booking in February and March. Normally, mini sessions are only offered on specific days in September, October and November at a bsquared chosen location. For the winter mini sessions, the place is up to you and so is the day & the location. We can get some great stuff in your home and weather permitting, can still get outside for a few shots as well (running back inside to warm up). Please see the above links for the be mini pricing and the bsquared calendar and email me at bethbeyrer@yahoo.com (or thru the contact link above) to set up your winter mini session.
And because a post is too boring without a picture or two, here are some from last year’s winter mini’s.

miranda’s sweet 16
Right before Christmas I headed over to Westbury Manor to photograph the lovely Miranda’s Sweet 16 party. I loved her gorgeous gold gown and how it totally coordinated with all the jewel tones they had the venue decked out in. I was only there for about 2hrs, but it looked like a rockin party with all the kids up dancing and having a great time. And although it was ffffffreezing outside, the family opted for some photos outside on the grounds. To me at least, it was definitely worth it!
Hope the rest of your birthday was wonderful Miranda! And may all your wishes come true.

bsquared 2012 {packaging & marketing materials}
If you decide to book a session with me this year, (which of course I am really hoping you are) you’ll find all kinds of changes & goodies from start to finish. All new packaging, colors and ‘stuff’ for packing your orders all pretty. And even a welcome packet. (more on that to come).
I have also added three new product offerings into the bsquared world: luxe albums, layflat albums & custom dvd’s and custom dvd cases. You can find more about those in the product dropdown menu above, but here are a few pictures. All of the new items are offered as a la carte items and some are available in a few of the bsquared packages, where they are offered at a discounted package price.
Luxe albums:
Layflat albums:
Custom dvd’s and dvd cases.
There should be a new bsquared newsletter coming your way this week filled with lots of information about upcoming specials, the bsquared calendar openings, and a bunch of other stuff. So if you haven’t yet signed up for the newsletter, its easy to do just by clicking on the “newsletter” tab to your left here on the blog.
If you have any questions or comments on any of the above, please feel free to leave a comment below or email me thru the contact link above. I really hope you love all the bsquared changes this year! I’ve worked really hard to make it all happen.
Hope everyone has a great day today!!

operation anti-hoarder continues…
So, it was finally Wednesday (paper recycling day) and I was able to drag all of the recycling we were saving since before Christmas out to the curb. There was a lot of dragging. Every box was filled with more paper and more boxes.
And I can only imagine the thoughts of the recycling truck guys when the came around the corner and saw this. In my head it went something like “are you fu*king kidding me?!”
Then, after the recycling went out, the purge of 13 years worth of attic, basement, and scrapbook room crap quickly replaced the boxes in the garage to wait for the Vietnam Veterans pick up on Friday. 13 years worth of crap is a LOT of crap. My back still hurts from all the moving and lifting and shifting of said crap. And the pile goes back about 6 feet.
A special thanks to Nick & Chris, my friend Nicole’s brother and cousin who worked their butts off to cart all my piles of crap into the garage. And while the Vietnam Vets came and picked up, there’s still quite a pile in there (they couldn’t fit it all on their truck!) so I’ll schedule another pick up this week.
Sorry for all the boring blog posts. Have some other more interesting posts coming up soon that don’t involve my garage or hoarding.
