senior collage

I've been messing around with some collages and this is what I came up with. This is a little sumthin' sumthin' from one sassy blue eyed gal from a previous post. Let me know what you think.

just trying a little random collage from a wedding.

 

computer love

just to let everyone know, i'm having some internet issues, hence the blog silence. i'm seriously considering giving my computer paper cuts and pouring salt on it. for those of you waiting for your previews, i should be getting most of them up this weedend or early next week, as long as my computer understands threats and starts getting in line. thanks for your patience!

my nephew

We were on vacation and I took a few pictures of my cute little nephew. I love this age because they are so smiley and happy. Don't you just want to squeeze him?

seniors....

Here is a quick sneak peek of a ridiculously fun senior session. I will blog all about it hopefully on monday so check back.

matt and danielle

This cute girl has known my husband and his family since she was knee high to a june bug. So it was a lot of fun to be able to take pictures of her and her honey. I was totally embarassing her, but since they are kind of like family, I figure that's my job {hee hee}. So here are some of their engagements. I've also taken Danielle's bridals, but since I'm not sure if Matt will be seeing these, I'll wait to post them until after the wedding. Anyway, here's your sample. Somewhere in the distance I can feel Danielle blushing :)













a little something different...

just a little peek....

Amy here's a sneak peek. More to come later....

Lladro continued....

I'm sure you all have been waiting on pins and needles, so hold your breath, here is the rest of her-the Lladro bride. Was I right or was I right. Check out those lines. It's like she's carved right out of stone. And I mean that in the warmest way possible :)

So now that you've seen the rest of her, let me share a little about the day.

Last Wednesday, I was lucky enought to share in Rachel and Jon's wedding. I brought along my trusty "professional poser" and best friend Kate. She is flippin' awesome, I couldn't have done it without her. So just a little love to Box-trot before we move on. Love ya lady!

First off, I'm pretty sure that Rachel was right out of America's Next Top Model. She is STUNNING and a perfect "poser". Not to mention that she was totally chill. This is a photographer's dream. Follows instructions, and lets me do whatever I want (hee hee). She was so relaxed and fun. In fact the whole crew was. One of my favorite quotes of the night was when the groom's mom said her family was "shot out of a sugar cannon". Good times...

When bride and groom where together, they were giddy, and totally goofy. They rocked the dance floor and seemed genuinely in love. And I'm totally proud of Jon for allowing us to take some dreaded "groomals". Even if half of them were faces that were reminiscinet of my husband at our wedding. (i.e. totally off his rocker :) ) It was a blast. I loved the casual elegance of the wedding and the awesome couple. They were a riot.

So thanks again guys for trusting me with your special day. Hope you enjoy what we captured....

out and about...

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be in Colorado for a wedding until Sunday and then I'm off for a little vacation with the family until next Saturday. I will be checking emails, so feel free to send them along if you have any questions. I may or may not have my phone, so email will be best.

In the meantime, start getting jazzed (anyone else think of Richard Simmons when I say that?). I have several exciting things coming up including some rockin' sessions to share with you and the release of {drum roll....} a NEW WEBSITE!!! The website is going to be ROCKIN', with some great features like email contact right from the website, private client galleries, and my calendar so you can take a look at what session times are available without even having to call me and hear my voice. {I know some of you are thrilled about that prospect-I'm sure my hubby wishes that could apply to him}

I will continue blogging {and I'll try to post more than just once in a blue moon} even after the launch, so you can still get a sense of my dashing personality {blerg} as I try to contain my wild life.

Keep checking back for updates about launch times, and the possibility of some mystery giveaways for people {chosen at random} who leave comments here on the blog. We photographers love to hear from blog stalkers {call it narcissism}, so here's your incentive.

Now, a post is not a post without a picture so, as a little teaser form this week's wedding {that will be discussed in further detail later-never fear}, does anyone know what a Lladro is? {click on that pretty little colored word to find out} If you do, then you'll have an idea of what's attached to the rest of this dress.








I'm pretty sure this bride was carved right out of stone. But, as a teaser suggests, I'm only showing you the bottom half. You'll just have to come back here if you want to view the rest of this ridiculously gorgeous life size Lladro. Ah, the power I hold.....




*As a p.s., what's the deal with my last post? hmm. I'll check into that...

This was so much fun and little l. was so easy! Such a beautiful location, and a darling family. I've known Allison since I was knee high to a June bug, so it was such a kick to see her as a mom and enjoy her little family. So thanks you guys! Hope you enjoy them!
