Giddy up!

I love Texas!

I know, I know...how can I be from Oklahoma and love Texas, but it's true. People are so genuine and nice and who can deny a precious little kid in a cowboy hat. So cute!

Meet me next Sunday (and every Sunday in October) at Arapaho United Methodist Church Pumpkin Patch at Coit and Arapaho. I will be there from 3pm to 6pm snapping more candids to help raise money for the missions of the church.

Look for me! I will be the tall lady with the camera!

Here I am!

Sometimes I go away for a while and work, work, work on admin stuff. You know, like answering e-mails, retouching photos, processing orders, answering e-mails, editing, websites and answering a few more e-mails...so that's what I have been doing.

But last week I documented a birthday party for these two very sweet little girls at Pee Wee Picasso!

So fun!

NEWS FLASH! Did you know that I do parties now? I have had so many requests to do birthday parties that I am creating an "event division" and hiring some very talented mommy* photographers to help out.

Watch for more details...but pretty much it is $150 for a 90 minutes of event coverage, online gallery for guests to order prints and the unretouched photos on a cd.

And it doesn't have to be a kid's party. Tonight I am documenting a 60th birthday party!

Love it!

End of Summer

The kiddos and I headed up to the pool today for the last swim of summer 2008. Even though school has started summer is never officially over until Labor Day weekend. One last dog on the grill and some splashing in the pool was all we needed to wash the summer off and get pumped for the fall. Lu has already designed a "super cool" halloween costume. Can't wait to see it!

Happy Labor Day!

Now the busy season begins...

sweet angels

These sweet babies were so lovable and easy to photograph. You could definitely see a distinct difference in personalities, but I think that is true of all sisters. I can't wait to watch them grow and see how they will be alike and different. Twins are so amazing! Double blessings to the new family!

Thanks for a wonderful session girls!

okay, just one more...

What a face!!!

sweet siblings!

I have taken portraits of this sweet Kindergartener and her sister for a while now... and this time their brother got in on the action too! Have you ever seen a baby that is so expressive!?! He is precious and has two wonderful big sisters. Have a great First Day of School, sweet L.

"You say it's your Birthday!...na, na, na, na, na, na!"

My best friend growing up always called me on my birthday and sang that song to me...she's the one who taught me how to be so cool. When I was making the dreadful 80's mistake of Def Leopard and White Snake or Lion or whatever - she introduced me to the Beatles. Great memories!

Anyway, today is my birthday! Yippee! So I am posting a picture of the best birthday gift ever! His name is Henry and we adopted him at Paws in the City a few weeks ago! So I got my first dog at age 32!

I also got the absolute best birthday card today too. My two girls...I am sure our little boy helped in his own...made me a beautiful card and had it propped by a full pot of coffee...thanks to my awesome hubby.

Celebrate today!
