Okay, I am catching up on all my posts today. A little over a month ago I had the privilege to be invited to a shoot party hosted by Kelly Manno. We had a blast and our models were incredible! Thanks to Tasha and Jeff, and Laura for putting up with the rain and nutty photogs snapping photos of you all day…

Through my eye’s…

In this new year I just want to thank all of you who have supported me and my vision. 2007 and the beginning of 2008 has been one of the hardest times I have ever been though and without your love and support I don’t know if I could have made it though. I lost a part of me and the love of someone very special that I don’t know if I can ever get back and it effects me to this day, I have memories that create very rough days at times but i keep my faith that God has purpose for me and my future. I just give you one piece of advice as we head into the future, do not leave anything unsaid. Embrace your feelings and needs and make them known. Look at your mistakes so that you can learn from them and never regret. Speak your mind and never be afraid of what you want most because with fear you can lose everything, and never give up hope. Dream’s come at no expense except when you have dreamt your life away. I love you all and hope that this year brings you all great happiness. I leave you with an image for the future and hopefully gives you hope. It is a spiral of light mimicking the spiral of life, let that spiral of life be a gift and embrace it for it is to precious to ignore.

City Museum Rocks!!!!

I shot Sarah and Matt’s engagement session a week ago sunday but wanted to wait until they got to see them before I posted. We had such a great time, Matt and I were like two little kids sticking our noses in every nook and cranny we could find while Sarah laughed at us. Sarah had knee surgery recently so she couldn’t enjoy the museum to its fullest, just wait Sarah you will be going crazy at CM in no time! Here are a few of the images from the day. Hope you enjoy!
