Creating high-quality photos requires the use of clever lighting tricks, which explains why so many photographers illuminate their studios by burning spellbooks. Light your face with magic with today’s Groupon: for $59, you get a photo session (ranging from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours) and a CD with 15–20 digital images from Yvette Sharis Photography (a $275 value). Customers can choose any location in the San Gabriel Valley, Orange County, San Bernardino County, Riverside County, or selected areas of Los Angeles County (may incur travel fee depending on L.A. location). This Groupon is not valid for weddings or events, but can be used to upgrade to more expensive services.

Yvette Sharis Photography is masterminded by Yvette Morales, a friendly photosmith who seizes photo ops and transforms them into high-quality images. Families or groups of up to five individuals can pick a meaningful location to pose for an up-to-two-hour session, as Morales snaps shots that faithfully record each clash of clothing and sparkling eye-apple. The resulting frames will eventually be uploaded to an online photo gallery, and customers can select 15–20 high-res images to be professionally edited and loaded onto compact disc, from which they can be duplicated over and over again, like paper currency.

A self-described “flip-flop girl,” Morales uses Canon equipment to document the lives of her subjects. Call to make an appointment and gather up the family for a photoshoot, or, if your family is busy, borrow one from the supermarket for an exciting impromptu photo spree.
