Breakfast at Tiffany's

Ok, so now I'm crossing the line about personal blogging... Not that all you viewers (my sister, me, my husband, me again), want to see the happenings at our dining room table, but I just have to show you the beautiful light that we experience every morning at our house. Tony and I have daily conversations about buying land, and building the house of our dreams (you know, after the recession when the land is double the price again...)- But I have to say, I don't think I could ever have dreamed up such a lovely dining room with just the most magical light. In a couple of days the purple from the lilac trees will give the entire front of the house a purple glow. Its incredible!
Don't worry, I'll be sure to post it!




Quote of the day- "How can we ignore mommy if you keep saying "ignore mommy".Gardy, in an annoyed voice says while I'm circling them trying to photograph them in their natural state. ;) Love him.

Tuesday Special

I am proud to announce my first newborn session with Baby Alyssa! She is just absolutely beautiful and perfect! Her mom was my first maternity shoot and Alyssa is my first newborn. Thanks for the confidence guys! We've made a pact that every Tuesday we would do a 15 to 20 minute shoot of Alyssa for 2 reasons- One, for practice for me and photos for Amanda and two, just because I loved doing it. It was really fun and I can't wait to see and photograph the weekly changes. Here's a few from this Tuesday...

Way Too Cool for School!

so I've been on the fence as to whether or not I would blog about my family. Its always been very tempting to me but I wanted to keep it somewhat professional. Well, I've changed my mind... since I'm going to be practicing a little more extreme photoshop I thought I better do it on my own children and not my clients! Here are a couple of photos of Gardy.
I know I always use this word and it dates me back to the days of Lavern and Shirley and Happy Days (all my playgroup mommies are thinking, "who the heck is Lavern and Shirley"), but Gardy looks like such a hunk here!

Funky With Photoshop




I've been fiddling with photoshop lately

and thought I'd post some middle of the road shots.


In the photography world photoshop "actions" are all the rave, and I must say I rather enjoy them. I'll post some funkier ones later!
