Thankful Thursdays

May 02, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

 


First off, let me tell you that I am TeRrIbLe at blogging-like takes hours, don't know what to say, never post, questioning every statement- type of terrible.  

On the drive home from visiting in Cincinnati (cough cough this is a week late) I was reflecting on the many blessings in my life and how absolutely wonderful it was to be able to visit with so many friends and family, but also work.  I was overwhelmed with the feeling of peace and happiness that the week had brought me.

I began to wonder...how could I turn celebrating life’s little blessing into a weekly event.a blog.my blog?!?  Could I actually be consistent? My final answer was…you have to start somewhere and you will not know until you try!

I remembered back to when a sweet friend and colleague of my husband posted her “Daily 5 Blessings” and how nice it was to see someone celebrate their accomplishments big and small.    So many times we hear nothing but negativity and bad news from various forms of media, but I have found the more times you say “thank you” in life, the more things you actually have to be thankful for.  So here it goes!

Thankful Thursdays

Top 5

1. Family...Duh enough said

2. Lifelong friends...you know the kind that you don't talk to every day, but feels like you do when you see them

3. Sunshine...the sunshine was gorgeous and golden so many times that week

4. Repeat Business... no brainer

5. All the steps I have taken to get here...too many to list in one post

Love of a family

May 02, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

So many times we speed through life without taking a moment to absorb the beauty all around.  Capturing the love of a family is a precious time and one that I enjoy greatly.  I love getting to know each family and learn their story.  Each story a little different, each name chosen wisely, but all surrounded love and support.

Mommy & Me

A wonderful friend & client shared a link to a blog months ago and I have been waiting for the perfect time to share! With Mother's Day just around the corner I thought... why not share it now!?!  So many times the hard work of a Mother gets overlooked.  I am not a Mommy yet, but I can only image it consists of long hours, endless laundry and lots of love.  

If you are a Mommy or a super sweet Daddy who loves a beautiful Mommy please share, read and feel free to book a Mommy & Me mini session in May.

Fun in the Sun

107 degree weather calls for "creative" shooting.  When I say creative, I really mean quick!  This photograph was taken around 6:00 in the evening on Percy Priest Lake.  The summer sun was strong, but beautiful.  I really struggled with which photograph to post on www.rocktheshotforum.com and after a great debate it was narrowed down to this photo of Lil' Miss being sassy.  

 

This photograph really defines her personality; strong willed, but absolutely lovely. 

Canon 7d. 1/4000. f2.8. ISO400

I bumped up the contrast and fill light then added a little sunny glow.
