Anne

Okay, so I figured I’d “come back” with a few of my FAVORITE senior sessions from this year.  Here’s Anne, who was totally AWESOME and brought THE perfect outfits!

I’m still here! With a little news, too. ;)

Hello, faithful blog readers!  There IS a reason I’ve been sooo MIA lately.  I’ve been putting off posting anything about it here on the blog for about a month now, but I guess it’s time to go ahead and officially spill the beans…

I’m preggo!  Yep!  I found out about a month ago.  Adam and I are totally excited!  We’ve been waiting for this & yet we both can’t believe it’s really happening!  It’s really exciting, but also a WHOLE LOT more time consuming than I EVER would have imagined - I am TOTALLY & COMPLETELY exhausted and sick (with morning sickness) almost 24/7.  How hard does this make it to shoot sessions & weddings?  Lots, but I’m really do great with it.  Being a “5-cups-of-coffee-a-day” girl and used to living on only a few hours of sleep, this new “world” of sleeping 10 hours a day, with a nap in the afternoons, and NO COFFEE to help wake me up makes life interesting.  Having the need to constantly snack and/or hurl 24/7 just adds to the bittersweet comedy of being in my first trimester. 

BUT I HAVE FAITH!  Morning sickness should be over & done with right around June 1st (or so the books & doctor tells me)!  So I’m just counting down the days until then & keeping my head up high with the excitement of what’s to come this December!

So, naturally, what has suffered more than anything with a drastic change in the # of office hours I can make in a day?  THE BLOG.  Poor blog.  It’s my little side project that always makes it fun to share some of my favorite images from recent sessions, but it IS what has been neglected for the past few weeks.

So NO WORRIES!  Life is good!  And the blog WILL BE MAKING A COMEBACK within the next few days as the seniors are wrapped up & done with.  **  We’re starting on 2009 seniors within the next month or so!** 

And as I desperately try to keep up with my weddings every weekend, I have been DYING to share some of Katherine’s AMAZING bridals that we took months ago that couldn’t be shared until now!

It was a very windy day, but we made the absolute MOST of it and laughed the entire time!

Dear Blog, I miss you! ;)

So, I’ve been MIA on here for a whopping 16 days.  Dang.

Weddings on the weekends, a million sessions during the week…  I’ve had a lot going on around here and my blog is being neglected!  :(

No worries!  I’ll be returning VERY soon!

In the meantime, here is three of Morgan’s images she had displayed at her AWESOME wedding last weekend.  Yay Mrs. Morgan!  :)

I’ll see you all again soon!  THANK YOU so much for stopping by.   :)

Andi

Due to weather on the day of Andi’s bridals, we opted to keep our session, but move it indoors…  I love what we got.  ;)

Katie & Bryan

 The day of this shoot - WINDIEST DAY EVER.  Ask Katie - watering eyes, hair all over the place, crazy!  It was SO windy, that Katie almost fell over just walking!!!  And Bryan was a great sport - I’m sure he was sitting there thinking, “This girl is NUTS to have us doing this today.”  Sorry Bryan!  But I loved the results…  And yes, I was in a black & white “mood” with a lot of theirs…   :)
