I love this little comic and read one today that so perfectly fits my frame of thought lately…

Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope that everyone is enjoying a wonderful holiday and that you are all spending the day with loved ones and stuffing your faces with delicious food. Just remember to take time to think about the things that you’re thankful for! I am very thankful for my family, friends, wonderful business and clients, our new house (which isn’t “ours” quite yet) and I am especially thankful this year for my health. It’s been a rough year but I made it through and I am so thankful for my doctors, surgeons and to all of my family and friends who have been such a tremendous support! I love you guys!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

It’s that time of year again… when we give thanks. As a thank you to you, I’m running a special this weekend only! I can’t possibly spoil the surprise now… you’ll have to come back on Thanksgiving to find out the details! So spend some time with your loved ones, enjoy a great meal, remember all of the things you’re thankful for and stop by after you wake up from your post-turkey nap to get the details!

I love photographing textures when I’m bored, on vacation and even sometimes during a shoot! It was my first official photography assignment in elementary school and it has stuck with me ever since. Texture overlays are becoming increasingly popular and many photographers simply don’t have the time or patience to shoot their own so I’m making it a little easier! I have an extensive collection of my own textures and I am now offering a small sampling of them for sale. Textures are packaged into Volumes - 10 per Volume. You can purchase one Volume for $50 or get a discount on the complete set of 4 Volumes at $175. There is not a single repeat in any of the Volumes… each one is different. My textures mainly consist of natural elements - stone, wood, snow, grass, etc. and are extremely versatile for using on a wide range of photos and backgrounds. If you don’t know how to use textures, no worries - I’ve got that covered too! A PDF with basic instructions is included. Once your order is placed you will receive an e-mail within 48 hours with a link to download your purchase. Downloads will be available for 14 days from the date of purchase.

Tara and I had such a fabulous time photographing Katie & Andrew’s wedding in Litchfield last month! Katie is so bubbly and sweet and Andrew is a teddy bear… who is obsessed with the inner workings of my camera! =) These two are so cute together and certainly know how to make each other laugh… one of the most important things if you ask me! Katie has a great eye for detail and the thought that she put into every little thing just amazed me. From the alternating centerpieces to the pumpkin place card holders to her fabulous dress and hot shoes, no detail was overlooked. We had so much fun celebrating with Katie & Andrew and their family and friends and are honored to have been their photographers! Congratulations again you two and thank you so much!!!

Thursday I had the extreme pleasure of meeting my friend Tina’s daughter Payton for the first time and of course, taking some photos of Tina, Dennis and Payton! I can’t wait to see that precious little girl again and take more photos! Congratulations again guys!

Much to my dismay, my 5 year old is pretty much obsessed with Hannah Montana and of course, had to be her for Halloween! I guess she could do much worse for an idol… Just wanted to share a couple snaps of my little pop star! I hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween!
