Another sneak peek.....

I had a lovely afternoon at the Dallas Arboretum yesterday with this very cute, very fun family. Their son....WOW....look at those eyes. He is adorable! They were so friendly and made my job so much easier. It was a nice relaxing afternoon. I suggest the Arboretum for your family's pictures too. I'm sure you will want them there after seeing these!
I promised them a sneak peek and here it is. And these are just the beginning. We got some GREAT images!!!

Welcome to the YUCK....

Have you seen Jarhead? This is my variation on the motto from that movie.
Yuck is definitely what our house has been for the past few days. Mia got it then me and then Saylor. We all threw up and worse. First Mia was sick all day Sunday and then just when I thought we could go back to life I got sick and then just as I was beginning to feel better Saylor was sick too. Then at 1 am on Tues. morning Mia started again. So here we are on Wed. and everyone seems back to normal. Saylor is back at work and I am trying to catch up on all the stuff I've got going on. Auctions and craft fairs and sessions to proof......OH MY!
The past few days definitely makes me more aware of germs and just what you can catch when you are around other people. This is the first time Mia has been sick (other than a fever) since she was born. It is NOT something I want to deal with often.
Anyway.....if anyone is interested in something to do on Friday evening I will have a table at the Carlisle Elementary Fall Craft Fair in Plano 5:30-8:30. I'm taking orders for photo jewelry. There is also lots of other crafty stuff and fun games for the kids. Come by and visit!!

Trying to catch up...

This morning Mia woke us up at 4 am crying. Saylor went to check on her and she had thrown up all over herself and her bed. By 6 am she had had 3 baths and thrown up 3 more times. She was sick about every 30 mins. until around 11:00 when she finally feel asleep again. We went through about 10 towels and I am worn out. Poor baby. She is sleeping again right now (past out on the blanket in the living room floor) and that's the only reason I have time to post this right now. As soon as I post I'm taking a much needed nap!

So on to the good stuff.......

I am overwhelmed with how busy this month has been. I am so thankful for all the opportunities that have been presented to me. I am also really blessed to have a supportive family and friends that have encouraged.....if not pushed me into this photography thing. I am so glad they did. I truly love it.

These are from a session I had yesterday. She is one of my Senior Reps. Lucky me. What a cutie! Her mom told me she is photogenic and she wasn't kidding. We had a great time and a long session. 2 1/2 hours! I was exhausted and was pretty sure that this georgeous senior had had enough too. I looked through them when I got home and these were the first few that jumped out at me. I have lots more to go through, but I wanted to share a sneak peek for senior and mom to look at.

One of my favorites so far....

I had a shoot with the cutest couple on Sat. afternoon.
Here is a little sneak peek for them. I think this is one of my favorite images for a client since I started. I seriously LOVE this picture. I hope they like it too. I really had a great time with them and their adorable dog. She was the sweetest thing. She kept crawling in my lap to snuggle. I will post some more when I finish editing. I don't want to show too many until the client gets to see them, but I wanted to share just one.

tea for two in tutus......


*click to see larger

We had a tea party friday for Mia and her friend Emory or.....Mimi and Emmy as they call themselves.
They had SO much fun. The girls were just so cute in their tights and tutus and.....those fairy wings. I hope they don't hate us when they grow up. They twirled and skipped and ran all over the front yard. They definitely brightened up the front yard more than dead grass.
We can't wait to do it again!
