well….we’ll do three…..

Brides ~ Karen, Lisa, and Sarah

Photographers ~ Jodi, Amber, & Tina

When ~ when the nice weather comes…if it ever does!

Thanks for all of the response!

If you haven’t had a chance to check my crazy summer / fall calendar on my wedding site…..don’t…I try not to..it’s overwhelming!

Most of my weekends are booked…but there are a few holes in the schedule. All that to say….plan ahead. If you want a weekend session, book now! I will be booking in the next month for the entire summer / fall season…so please call or email me if you’d like to book a session.

By the end of the weekend, I will be posting which weekend dates are available for booking. Of course I will still be able to squeeze newborns in, but if you are pregnant, and you know you want a belly & baby, call me now, so I can pencil you in.

Thanks….and I hope everyone is getting out of their house this weekend….I have felt slightly “snowed in” lately. But, with 5 sessions this weekend, and 2 ~ outdoors…I think that’s a good break!

This is what I saw on Valentines day with my hubby….(I know…real Junior High…but I don’t care) TIm laughed and snickered through most of the movie, but he went for me ~bonus points for him! If I could …I would dance like that. The first one was much better….but the last dance in the rain….was fabulous.

…. bridal session?

It is a session before your wedding day, in your wedding dress, usually shot on the day of your hair and makeup “run through” … or you could do you hair and makeup the way you REALLY want to..but your parents probably wouldn’t go for it on your wedding day! I will keep your dress as clean as possible or I’ll have it cleaned for you! Nothing too “trash the dress” I promise. It’s just nice to take photos without the pressure and nervousness that comes along on your wedding day. I will take those too, this doesn’t replace that.

Brides …Just to see how many of my brides ….(24 this year!) and others (you don’t have to be my bride) are following my blog….the first two brides to post a comment on my blog….will get a FREE bridal session as soon as spring hits or when your dress is finished, which ever come first.

Value : $200 session fee & $225 CD negatives with reproduction rights = $425

Photographers…The first two beginning/workshop photographers to post a comment will get to second shoot with me on them.

Value : Priceless…ok not really, it just sounded funny!

Good Luck!

Yes, I have been missing in action on the blog…so sorry! I have a good excuse though….Chicago..Miami…Workshops….

Our family went to Chicago last weekend to visit my brother and his family ~ they just moved there a few weeks ago. We had a blast! I think we’re a little crazy..because between our 2 families, we have 6 kids, 8yrs and under and we ventured downtown with them, they loved all the train, cab, and bus rides, I even made my son take some pics on the train..he’s used to it by now! The only picture I snapped of the city was from the Sears tower, but it was very foggy.

Then Monday morning I flew to Miami ~ yes, I know ~ lucky me..I was just excited to wear flip flops! Our friends moved there about…10 months ago and just had their first baby, they flew me there to shoot their new little man. John & Heather ~ you are amazing parents, and I enjoyed seeing both of you. Thanks for having me!

Just this weekend, I conducted a basic photography workshop, and that was a lot of fun and will be posting more of that later.
