meet the rest of the crew....

the senior crew...
This is a long one....

I know I have been a bad blogger lately, but I am spending more time posting my quirks and pics on facebook more so than here... Yikes.. sorry... but where else do you get to hear the latest on me working in my pajamas, my latest pimple and wishing I can play with another photog's camera?...Hee, hee... so look me up and be my friend, you get more of my silliness over there as well.. ;) Yikes... be warned.. it is addiciting... :- right, friends???? :)

anyhoo... I did not want to keep these kids waiting for their sneak peek any longer, so I am bundeling up the post into one, it's a long one...but a fun one.. Now, I can also play catch up on all my other silliness and shenanigans.. ha.. ;0

Stay tuned.. more ramblings, more sneak peeks, and more of just more...

Oh, by the way.. We are having OUR family professionally photographed next week...if all goes well ( kids cooperating, and all that good stuff) I will post all the goofiness we had planned... it will be fun.. ;)

meet Alex...







and his twin sister, Bree








and Beth...

more seniors coming up....

and more fun stuff on the way, just have been a little crazy busy with holiday print orders and other fun stuff.. ;)

but I will share I have a new tool for my camera.. the 'hand strap" it is called.. I call it the relief strap...It seems every time I do a session, I rarely wear the darn strap, and it just seemed to get in the way most of the time...Don't get me wrong, I love all those cool straps and fancy patterns like the rest of you.. but when I am constantly firing away.. I rarely wear the neck strap.. so here is my new hand strap for comfort and ease.... so far, so good....

Note..not my hand... hee, hee... I could not find a picture of the exact one, so this will do...


and we had our holiday photographer Christmas party last night...so fun.. it is so great to hang out with about 20 different photog's in the area and catch up with old friends, and make some new ones, and to just share ideas.. what a great network of friends and fun this was...:)

Note: a reminder that this will be the last week to order prints to get them back by Christmas, so if you have not placed your order...Please do so this week to have in time for Christmas delivery...

Alex.. coming up...

Mr. Jared himself....

The "all American athlete"... yup.. and he is only 5....I told him he better get me tickets to the world cup, world series or the Superbowl... because he will be in one of those folks...:)

this session was so fun!.. because like many firsts, I never played a sport while taking pictures at the same time... yeah!.. That is me pitching the ball and kicking the ball his way.. yes indeed!... Not very good at it, but it was sure fun...I was just praying these balls did not land in my mouth or my lens, because he's good... ;)

Enjoy a sneak peek of Jared's 5Th birthday session...;)

I am 2% there.. geesh...
