And the beautiful backyard belongs to....

The Tates!! Not only did we have a wonderful backdrop to work with, but they fed us too!!! They made us a wonderful gumbo dinner and we had a great time just hanging out. I would love all of my sessions to go this well!

looking for the maternity client who called me this weekend....

My phone is about to be thrown through a window!! It's been giving me so many problems and unfortunately while I was on the phone with a potential client this weekend my phone not only went out, but it didn't record the phone number and wouldn't turn back on for awhile! So if you are the client who called from Williamsburg who is 35 weeks pregnant, PLEASE call me back! I promise I didn't hang up on you, and like I said my phone didn't record your number so I have no way of calling you back. Thanks...

A beautiful backdrop

I had a session this weekend with my good friends The Tates. They had the most beautiful backdrop in their backyard and I just HAD to share! I have started proofing their pictures so I don't have any to share of them just yet, but will soon. I might have to let them bring my family out there for some pictures!!!

A beautiful family

They are first time parents to this beautiful little girl, and I was so happy to have them come to me for her first portraits. I hope they decide to go with my baby plan so I can see her every 3 months!!! I really hope they enjoy their pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them!!

This puts a smile on my face

2007 Christmas card collection

After staying up until 2:30 in the morning, I have finally finished my Christmas card collection for this year. It has been such a busy time right now that I'm finding myself trying to pack so much in such a small amount of time. Of course I know that is expected around this time of year. So, with that said, here is a sneak peak of a few of my 2007 collection. You can view the rest on my myspace page.

Beautiful Senior

This is my first senior of the year and she was alot of fun. Her mother and I teach missionette's together and I was really happy to be able to take her daughter's senior pics. Here are a few to sample. We took most of these outside of my studio and across the street at Mt. Trashmore.
Enjoy~
