Please say a prayer

My father-in-law is having a major surgery on Friday morning. He has esophageal and stomach cancer, and he is having the surgery to remove parts of both. It is a big deal, so we hope he comes out of it being healthier. Please just say an extra prayer for him. I will try my best to keep up with everything, but there are no guarantees.
Thanks!

I WON!!!!

YIPEE!!!

 I found out that I have won the Best of Fort Wayne contest from the Fort Wayne Newspapers.  I was nominated by one of my lovely clients for best Photographer.  Of course, you all pulled through and I have won.  I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and of course for voting.  I am so honored to know that you guys all voted for me.  I am so proud to say that I have the best clients!!!  You guys are great.  

Bear with me!

I am starting school this week, so bear with me on returning emails and phone calls.  I need to get into the swing of things.  I will try my best to keep up with everything.  Thanks!

3 in a row!

My newest purchase has been these awesome pettiskirts.  Little girls love to wear them.  I have them in 4 different sizes and colors.  You will be seeing many more of these to come.  They just love to twirl in them and boy does the personalities come out!  She was ready to give them a twirl.

I haven't blogged in forever and now I am adding 3 new posts.  Yikes.  I am so far behind in proofing it isn't even funny.  I have 14 sessions waiting to be proofed and that doesn't include the many that I have coming up.  Busy season is upon us!  Here are a few from a recent session of a brother and sister.  I just love gorgeous eyes, and these kids have them.  Wow!

Check her out!

It isn't too often that you get to capture such a fun expression.  These 2 girls were having so much fun blowing bubbles, that I got lucky to capture the littlest one with this expression.  Aren't these girls gorgeous?  Those eyes were amazing.

Enjoy!

Senior sneak peek

Here is a sneak peek of Alyssa's senior pictures.  What a beautiful girl!  We had a great time taking her pictures.  I tried out some new techniques on her pictures, so she is my guinea pig!

Enjoy!

What Fun!

Here is a sneak peek of baby Arianna.  Can't you tell how much in love her parents are with her.  She was such a smiley and happy baby.  We had a lot of fun getting her to smile.  It helped that grandma was in the background making her laugh.  

Your full proofs will be up soon!

Vote for me!

Ok, I don't usually beg for this kind of stuff, but I was nominated for best photographer in Fort Wayne.  The Fort Wayne newspapers have a contest going on for the best of Fort Wayne.  Here is the link to vote.  I have been able to vote once a day, so vote often.  Go to  VOTE here.  I was honored to be nominated, but it would be awesome to win!  It is on until July 27th.

Everyday moments

It is amazing how you forget to document those everyday moments.  My kids are 4 and 6, so they rarely nap.  I guess going to the zoo-loo-au and jumping in the inflatables wore them out.  I just love seeing my kids sleep.  I guess it is because they look so sweet, but I know that they are little devils inside!  Anyways, I just couldn't resist these shots of them.  The last shot is from a few weeks ago.  I was playing with the sun behind my daughter.  I can't wait to try more with a better background.  Enjoy!

Bear with me as I update my new blog.  I am still trying to figure out where things go and stuff like that.

I have a blog!

Can you believe that it has taken me this long to join the real world? I have been toying with the idea of having a blog, but then I wondered if I would have enough time. Well, I am going to give it a try. Hopefully, I can keep it updated with new and exciting things. I will periodically put up new things and who knows what else! Stop by and say "Hi" every so often.
