This past weekend was very busy. My father-in-law had his 35th high
school reunion and prophets day.I shot both events, I have edited the reunion and it is located in my client’s link on my website. As soon as I get a chance to edit Prophets Day I will add that to the clients link as well. I am designing an album for the reunion please contact me if you are interested in purchasing it. I don’t have much to say, surprisingly I have been going to bed early. Still working on waking up earlier, however, two more weeks and the girls are back in school. No more late nights and late mornings : (Winter is on it’s way ya’ll.
On another note,today is my father-in-law’s B-day.
Happy Birthday Dad!
His birthday is special to me because it is the day that my husband and I met. Happy Birthday Dad! : )
I hope all is well. My birthday was good. Reginald took me out to breakfast and we watched Lord of the Rings. My friend Shonda made me a great cake. I’ll blog about her cakes another time. It was a relaxing birthday. I wanted to post this video I saw on Youtube. It really had me laughing, I bet this was fun to photograph.
I hope everyone is enjoying summer! I was looking at my calendar; I can’t believe there are three weeks till school starts. No more late nights and late mornings. The kids are really enjoying their summer. We didn’t swim very much this year. Lord willing, we are going to make up for it next summer. We got a sprinkler and the kids love it. It is so funny to watch them in the sprinkler. Sometimes you have to just stop and look around. At my last job one of the guys said you need to stop and really just look at your kids. Watch them play, watch them read, grow. In a way doing this is a photograph for the memory. I try to do this; I really am trying to enjoy my kids as they grow. I’m sure there will be days when they won’t be around; they’ll be doing their own thing. Ok, enough of those sentiments. Here is a wedding I helped someone with. It was my first outdoor wedding, it was beautiful. It was my first time meeting the bride and groom. This usually happens when I second shoot for someone. I also ran into an old co-worker. She is a sweetie hey, if your reading this call me : )
I wish we had more time for photos. These two were really working it.
A little humor…
First dance…
Sweet and hot…
I love black and white. I also love the old school processing to some pictures.. Why so many hand photos you ask I don’t know. For me there is something to be said about how a couple holds on to their soon to be spouse during the time when they are vowing their love to each other.
I’m still working on my website and blog…please be patient.
I thought earlier I would simply blog…Am I to nice?…then I thought…should that be a statement or a question. I definitely think people mistake my kindness for weakness. Then I thought I should stop being so nice, but why. Why should I let how I react to someone determine how I act? I have to really realize that I can’t please everyone. I wish that I could,but simply I can’t. Not everyone is going to like how I tie my shoes,how I drive my car, how I do my hair…or don’t,you get the point. By realizing I can’t please everyone, I’m just letting things flow. I do my best,or the best I know at that moment,and aim to do better. What more can I do but do that. That being said if I have something to say about someone, I’ll let them know. I try not say something about someone that I won’t say to their face. If I have something against someone I tell them,hopefully we can resolve it an a mature fashion. I never confess to knowing everything. I may not know everything, but I know someone,or somewhere that knows something,so I may not know everything, but I know there is a way to find an answer. I should have tittled this rant instead of randomness. I realize I can’t please everyone, I won’t beat myself up for that fact. If your reading this and thinking wow, should I hire her if she doesn’t care if she pleases everyone let me make a disclaimer. When you hire me to photograph you, it is my business to make sure you are satisfied. It is my business to make sure you love your photographs. If your not happy, I’m not happy. I’m not referring to my husband here either : ) Although if you have been in a relationship you know can’t always please your mate either,but I do try my best : ) Ok I think I have it out of my system! My b-day is coming up August 12. I’ll be 32. I won’t say I’m getting older, I’m not in denial that I’m aging. But, whoah I’m getting up there : ) I’m happy,blessed, healthy,working hard, and more. I am going to get myself a massage for my b-day I’ve never had one before. I’m really looking forward to it, I know I deserve some relaxation. I may even treat myself to a facial. I’m trying to figure out how to get rid of the dark circles under my eyes.Any suggestions besides concealer? Also trying to figure out how to shrink my pores. I bought this cool mask at Family Dollar. It is Queen Helen, Antioxidant grape seed extract,peel off masque. It goes on clear and you peel it off. My pores looked smaller instantly, it’s really cool you have to try it. I’ve used it 3 times the key must be consistency. I’m in a rambling mood, I can type randomness a lot right now. I’m signing off…
