I may not be The best.. but Im always learning!

Photography is my life! That may sound cliche, but it really is true.. You know you are photo crazy when you dream about editing and new idea's for portraits. Silly maybe but Its me and I wouldnt have it any other way. I know I may not be the best but everyday my skills get a little bit better and every time I pick up that camera : My passion reaffirmed. One thing I can say is I love children and I have never had a session without showing that child's personality. And somehow even with the kid that hates having their picture done. I always manage to get a smile for mommy and daddy to hang on their walls. Thats what I do. I give people memories. Its the best job in the whole world... atleast to me :)

This weekend I had the pleasure of meeting the Campbell family! They had such a beautiful family and needed family pictures before moving across the ocean :)
Here are some of their photo's and I hope you have fun on your journey to your new home :)

Go Shoot something!!!

On days like today, where the kids are busy playing, the house is clean and the hubs is at work. I always begin to feel restless!! I dont know what it is... maybe just the simple fact that I am an over analyzer and always have been. I feel I want to do more and more and more.. lol But maybe Ive hit a plateau and just need to change career paths... When I get in these moods ( I guess you could say moods) Something in the back of my mind tells me to pick up my camera and go shoot something... anything!!! And when I do and I am pleased with the outcome it reaffirms my passion... I need that today. I need to get out there and shoot something~!! Because thats what I do... Im a photographer!!!

Happy Mother's day to all those wonderful moms out there!!!

Man, what a great holiday to celebrate. Mother's day!!! Can you Imagine a world without Mommy's? I most definitely cant!!! Mom's are the ones who help mold who we become. What a job! They help create the future. I dont know how I would of survived without my Mom growing up. I probably would of ended up even crazier than I already am. I hope one day my own children are as grateful as I am for the sacrifices made so they can grow up to be healthy, stable adults. In my job I get to meet fantastic Mom's all of the time and it really makes me feel blessed to be able to give these women something to hold onto their babies forever. We all know they grow up way to fast. My Mother's day was awesome! The hubby let me take a 3 hour nap and took the kids to the park! Who woulda thought the gift of sleep would of been the best gift ever? I know when I was a kid I dreaded naps, now I cherish them. The little things are what means the most. So today, I am celebrating all the mom's I come in contact with every day! Thank you mom's I hope your mother's day was as awesome as mine..

Boys!!!!!

Well this past weekend really tested my skills. I had 2 sessions with all boys. Boys are so fun! I think i burned 5000 calories during the 2 hours i was shooting :) So full of energy! But Both families were beautiful, I was so blessed to be able to give those families memories that wouldnt soon  fade. And at the end of the day that is reason I do what I do! Children arent predictable and you still have to be able to capture every smile, frown, emotion and keep it fun all the same time.. Quite a responsibility I carry on my shoulder's. I hope I meet all of their expectations and more :) Here is my favorite photo of the first session of the day. I will add my favorites of the second when I finish editing them.
