Oh My Gosh !!!! What a Beauty......


I've known for a while that I was going to have the privilege of taking Miss M's senior photos. She is such a beauty you can see why I have been so excited. I've been dreaming & planning her FUN photo session. She even emailed me some ideas of her own . I LOVE it when clients come with FUN ideas. I LOVE the challenge.

We had the first part of the shoot scheduled for this morning, but when all those crazy weathermen talked about the fierce storm that was to come, Miss M said perhaps we should reschedule. I agreed. (I have to admit, I was a little disappointed)
I saw Miss M this morning...I couldn't help myself... I begged her to come play in the snow with me............



I am sooooo glad she agreed.

52 Week Project............Week One -Gratitude


Photographers sometimes choose to do either a 365 (days in the year/Daily) or 52 (weeks in a year/weekly) project. They do this to push their creativity or to expand their skills.


I turned 52 this week so I have chosen this week to start my own 52 week Project. One photo per week just for me.

The last few years I have made it my personal goal to have an Attitude of Gratitude
I am the happiest when I look for the good...choose to be grateful..... You know, just simply to remember to "Count your Blessings"

The theme of my 52 project will be "Thanksgiving Daily." I worried it might seem a little braggy, but hopefully through this 52 week project you'll see as I am discovering in my "older" age- It's the simplest of things that truly make you happy.


WEEK ONE- I am grateful to have celebrated my Birthday with my ever growing family and enjoying sweets decorated by chubby four-year-old hands.
