This adorable shih Tzu loved the camera! Even though it was pretty cold outside- I had a great time with this little girl.

Baby Chloe

A had a wonderful opportunity to photograph this little bundle of joy.  It's been quite awhile since I've been aroudn a newborn- sometimes you forget just how tiny they are!  This cutie, Chloe, is the daughter of girl I went to school with years ago, and was gracious enough to drive a little over an hour to my studio to get some pics taken of her.  I had a great time with her- and learned a few things about photographing little ones. 

Ribbon Cutting!

Last Friday was my ribbon cutting for the new studio.  A very exciting day for me- it's a wonderful thing to realize you have such an amazing support system of friends and family that are behind you 100% and want nothing more than to see you succeed.  Thanks to everyone that came to show their support!

Luke Hermes : Senior

I had a great time with Luke a couple weeks ago- we braved the cold weather and headed outside for his senior portrait session.

Bridal Fair Spring 2010 = Success!

I had a great time meeting all of the brides to be at the bridal fair a few weeks ago.  I have been keeping super busy so I haven't had a chance to talk about it.  My booth came out pretty well- overall I was happy with it, especially considering I did a lot of it last-minute.  Also, just like last time, I was stuck next to a caterer.  Not that it's a bad thing- I just had to smell their awesome food all day long!
