A whole year in just 5 hours

Well we managed to cram a whole year into about 5 hours on my most recent photo shoot. Let me explain (and no I haven't lost my mind) :-).... Remember my post about a Calendar Girl? (this is where the "whole year" came from) Last Saturday we had the session (finally), it was a longer than normal session because we were dealing with a whole year's worth of photos. Lindsay did a fantastic job (modeling is harder than you think it is and a 5 hour session is a lot). Lindsay is a natural with a great look and attitude, a combination that makes my job easy.

Here's one of the photos from the session this one is for "March" (the theme was mechanic)




This calendar is going to knock his socks off!

Love is in the air

And the summer wedding season is quickly approaching. I have been busy talking with Brides and Grooms about their upcoming weddings and must say that hearing about their love story and finding out some of the details of their wedding brings out the romantic in me (which isn't hard to do because I'm a hopeless romantic at heart).

I love my job! I get to be part of the one of the happiest days in my clients life. Everyone looks fantastic, everyone is happy to be there and there's a wonderful party. It's good to be me!

As St. Valentine's Day approaches I wish you all the love, laughter and happiness your hearts can hold and then a little more for good measure.

Take care!

Signing up for more classes

This is the time of year that I sort out what classes and seminars I'll be attending throughout the year and I always get so excited. This year the photographers I will be working with & learning from are amazing. They are award winning and highly respected by their peers (and I get watch them in action, ask them questions, take notes and just absorb as much of their wisdom as possible). Basically, they are my idols.

Attending classes and seminars keeps me current on new trends in digital photography and helps me continually improve and expand what I can do with my camera. Plus it's another excuse for me to talk photography and take photos (like I really need another excuse huh?) :-)

My son thinks I'm crazy for being so excited to go to school.
