An unplanned winter break!

We have been given a gift today! Our usual schedules are interrupted, school is cancelled, and we have the opportunity to do something we didn't have planned! Today, I will bake cookies, play board games, and hang out with my kids with no where to go, no appointments to keep, no deadlines looming. I am excited!!

And We're Back!!

After a wonderful 10 days at PPA's Imaging USA in sunny Scottsdale, AZ (80 degrees yesterday, sigh!) filled with inspiring teachers and great images, we are back at the studio and ready to rock! Toni and Jeff have a beautiful family, don't they? We really enjoyed working with them and I love this image that Toni chose!

Happy 2009!

From our family to yours, we hope your new year is filled with love, laughter, and happiness! After a brief rest during the Holidays, we are busy again with our upcoming trip to beautiful and warm Scottsdale, Arizona for Imaging USA. This is the convention of the year for Professional Photographers of America. Ann Geddes will be the keynote speaker! We will be taking lots of great classes and seeing all of the latest and greatest trends in photography. Then we come home and show them to you in beautiful images of your family. Come and see us soon!

Liam, Aimee and Byron's Newest Model!

This morning we had the distinct pleasure of meeting Liam for his first photo shoot! He was a gem, and Mom and Dad are doing great as well. Liam is one Christmas present his brothers and sister will not forget any time soon!

Alisa, The Princess Bride!

Alisa and James were married this weekend! We had a blast with their families and friends. Alisa looked amazing, the wedding was beautiful, and the reception was filled with great music and good times. We wish them every happiness and hope they live happily ever after!

We have to mention the company that provided the chocolate fountain filled with Callebaut Belgian chocolate. I had the opportunity to try a sample and it was incredible!! If you need a chocolate fountain for your next event, you might try www.lotsofchocolate.com

Peppermints 'n' Petticoats!!

Isn't this the sweetest thing? Addison is trying out her very first candy cane! We loved working with her and all of our Peppermint girls today! We are definitely in the holiday spirit now!
