Better Late than Never….

Let’s just say that Jen and Doug are just about the most cutest couple. VERY much in love and just had such a magnificent energy around them on their day. It was to be an outdoor wedding and the weather was really unreliable that day to say the least. It definately rained, but alas, the moment that she was to walk down the isle the clouds let up a bit and allowed her to have her day outside. (With alot of workers wiping down the seats for the guests just seconds before her walk with her dad!!)
Not only did Jen put such amazing touches on her day, her special signs for her coworkers and her thank you boxes were all hand made by her. Every detail was hand done and just beautiful!

Jen and Doug—your patience is amazing and you this sneek-peek will be followed with something in the mail in time for Christmas!

IT’S A GIRL!!!!

She is just a little one…..about 8 weeks old.
She is already teething and goes from 100 miles per hour to 0 in 10 minutes.
Todd and I feel in love with her in 5 minutes-the kids in 5 seconds-and the grandparents already headed out to the buy a bed for her so when they watch her she has somewhere to rest!
Do you want to see her??????????????

 

 

 

 

 

 Yep….she is a puppy!!!  She is a Jack Russell and possibly another small dog {chihuahua}?

 

I think I am going to start photographing dogs…….what do you think????

Blog-a-mania #2

Now you must move below to read the first post….

Here is a Senior that actually is my neighbor.  It is so COOL to walk out your door and just go 500 feet to your job!!

I have known him for about 11 years and he has always been super nice, respectful and cute.  And then around middle school time he ditched his glasses for contacts, started to grow really tall, and started working out and respecting himself and just becoming a handsome man {this truely doesn’t need to be said just look for yourself}

Blog-a-mania!!!

Okay…so much has been going on since we stepped off our boat and came home to our normal life and all is wonderfully taken with open arms.

I have to admit that a few times I thought, “Take me back to the warm water, no children, lounging and leisure lifestyle of cruising” but really, when I looked at what I “think” is stressing over is truely WONDERFUL!!

In these tough economic times I have wonderful clients who allow me to run around and do what I love by taking their pictures AND get paid for it!!

In the months coming up and the holidays I look back at the year and think of my best friend who passed away, and missing her.  Thinking of her little boy and husband and her mom, dad, sister and brother going through the holidays without their mom, wife, daughter, sister.  I feel such saddness for me and for them.  I turn around and look at my family, all healthy and happy and with simple life worries of where is a clean pair of underwear in the morning.

Wondering why must someone stress over the simple stuff when things and life could be so different and difficult. 

I LOVE my life, my family, my job……and I am TRUELY grateful everyday!

Now you are asking; “Is this lady going to post pictures or what???”

You Betcha…….

First is a second session I had with my neice who is a Senior this year.  I am using some studio lights for this.  YES, it is true that some know I have talked about getting into a studio space of my own and this is still elusive at this time so I am being a bit creative and using some space in my home to make a small studio space.  It is cozy and cute and truely is fun to use the lights.

Being an available light photographer I am most comfortable and really LOVE the look of available light photos; but lets face it, here in Michigan we have ALOT of cloudy days.  Especially now that we are heading into the winter months our sunlight is very minimal and truthfully it will be bone cold and no one really likes pictures of themselves with red cheeks and boogers running out of their nose. {is this too graphic?}

Here she is….
