yes, i know, it’s been way too long without a post.  the past month has been a little nutty to say the least.  i still have sessions to show you (although now they are no longer sneak peeks), ramblings, news, etc.  so, in this post i’m just going to ramble and in the next few days i’ll post more pics and news and such.  of course, you can always drop me a line if you just can’t wait to find out what i’m doing!  lol!

so, what am i listening to these days?  well, the twilight soundtrack!  it’s awesome!  the song “flightless bird, american mouth” by iron & wine is haunting and is possibly the best song on the soundtrack.  but, i also love paramore and love the two songs that they have on there.  i actually just love the whole disc!  i’ve been listening to it nonstop.  there’s even a song by rob pattinson (plays edward in the movie) that is fabulous!  check it out on itunes, you get three bonus songs vs. getting the disc in the store.

until next time!

hi all,

i just wanted to remind everyone that all orders must be placed by November 30th in order to guarantee delivery for the holidays.  as always, if you have any questions or if i can be of any help just let me know!

:)

this family had great style.  ’d’ and ‘d’ were full of energy, as you would expect 2 year old twins to have.  we had great light, a great location and lots of action!  i’d say a recipe for a fantastic shoot!

until next time!

:)

so…  today i had the dreaded task of going to the dmv to renew my license.  we all hate going the there, it takes so long, the people are typically rude, blah, blah, blah.  can you believe that i was in and out of there in 4 minutes AND the lady was nice?  i know!

well here is sweet mr. r.  i photographed him this summer for the hydrocephalus shoot and he was as fun to photograph this time as he was then.  he gives me such great faces to work with!

until next time!

:)

check out the location!  they live on a river which of course made for a perfect backdrop!  this family was a lot of fun!  they knew how to strike a pose and be silly.  what more could you ask for?

until next time!

:)

here’s mr. e.  he’s full of personality, has big, beautiful blue eyes and is as sweet as can be!  his parents are pretty cool, too!  and to boot, another guy with cool shoes.  how do i get so lucky?  thanks “k” and “e” i had a wonderful time photographing your family!

until next time!

:)

when i met mr. m two years ago he was wearing some cool orange crocs.  he didn’t disappoint this time and wore some stylin’ vans with skulls.  ahhhh, a man after my own heart!  what’s better than a guy with cool shoes?  i digress….  i had such a fabulous time photographing this family.  mom is ultra stylish and just a cool chick and dad clearly adores his son.  they also brought their dog “L” (aka ugly dog) but i don’t think she’s ugly at all!  she’s very cute really.  enjoy!

what’s so funny?

until next time!

:)

ok.  so i finally figured out what i want to do with holiday mini-sessions.  i had thought of doing them all on one day but instead i’m giving you a choice because i know how crazy this time of the year can be!  there will be weekday and weekend availability and you will have your choice of two locations.

well, if you count being a year old grown up!  i started photographing him when he was 4 months old and i can’t believe how quickly the time has gone or how big he is now.  he’s such a doll and has the most amazing family.  they have been so much fun to work with.  he also has the sweetest big brother!

ok, i had to add one more because i just loooooove piggies!

until next time.
