just a teaser from tonight’s all about me session…can you guess the “theme”?
today…
well today was not one for the record books
no mother of the year trophies would have been awarded today or pats on the back for being so awesome, ha
today…
we were late for school (and if you know me, you know that being late to any-thing puts me on the verge of hives;) )
the roast, i intended to get in the oven didnt quite make it in there
the house didnt get picked up
not one peice of laundry got done
much less folded…yep that pile is still there on the bed from yesterday
a workout…oh my geez thats a joke this week
my brand new lamp came crashing to the ground…awesome
“timeout” was every other word out of my mouth
just as i thought the day could not get any worse i remembered THESE
if you are about my age you will most likely remember shrinky dinks and the endless fun you had coloring them, the amazment of watching them shrink down in the oven, and the pure awesomeness that you created with your new charms!!!! yeah buddy you remember now dont you?!?!
guess that old easter bunny is kinda smart after all…
Oh,yes. We’ve all had days like these!
Ah! I remember!! That is way too cute!
I LOVED shrinky dinks. I even had buttons sewn on a dress my mom made me that were shrinky dink buttons. Don’t ask me how that worked…
remember when we first started talking about the daydream mentoring sessions back HERE
well as i was enjoying packaging up a few clients orders today it got me thinking about the daydream menotring sessions again…at this time i am booked through sept for these sessions but i am *thinking* about opening up an extra spot or two…this way we can get all the marketting goodness in right before we get to the craziest busiest time for all of us…dum dum dum…the holiday rush aka madness aka craze aka every photog swears she is going to quit and never do this again time, hahaha.
so if you are interested in chatting about a daydream session and you live OUTSIDE OF A 150 mi from the woodlands/spring/tomball area then email me, lets chat.
I am leaving you with 1 simple shot…from part of my regular, every day chubby cheek photography packaging, you know that stuff i have never blogged or shown in internet-worldbut of course you get to see all wraped up holiday packaging ever year and this year we even had the honor of winning the PAPERIE WRAP BATTLE, i know im still in disbelief about that one…
Love these… you always have fun stuff… I am totally into packaging… I have a slight obession with it.. that Bill will never understand!
hi there! i am so interested in a mentoring session, i am dying to have one. i don’t see me being able to get there with four kids under the age of six…would you be open to doing a phone session? if so, do you think we could cover needed info on the phone? and cost of course. thank you so much. wish so much i was a state away, not across the country….:-) would love time with you to learn. i am 100% self taught and am at my self knowledge limit.
Hello!! I wanted to inquire about a mentoring session….I live miles away in Kentucky. I absolutely love your work, and would appreciate any opportunity to learn from you! Thank you!
Mandy
thats exactly what we both said when they hopped out of the car, ha…
seems like just yesterday we were shooting this chubby cheek’ed beautiful newborn, yep this is her now believe it or not
oh but this session was a far cry from the quite, stillness of that session…in the best way possible
we laughed, we sang, SHE danced the cutest little head titled 1 year old dance (and oh yes i caught it ill try to post it later)
we laughed some more, we sang some more, we snuggled alot
and we all got sticky after the wonderful beautiful mess she made of the most deliciously sugary icing
Love that last shot. So sweet.
OMG! Love those. What a beautiful little girl. LOVE the tippy toe shot.
For the love of Pete!!!!! Every time I see a new blog post, i am BLOWN AWAY….GREAT JOB!!!! The tippy toes shot is my FAVORITE!!!!! The light, the angles, i’m amazed
not much to say, i had plans they had other plans…. so did the weather, like that nice ugly white/grey sky, yep me too, blech!
you win some you lose some….this song by frances england used to be on my site waaay back when, like 4 years ago when
little bright star
You fill me up with a big, proud joy
When you smile my heart grows and swells
You make me want to be better and more
Than I ever imagined myself to be
Little bright star shining down
This little light of mine
Little bright star shining down
This little light of mine
Shine, shine, shine, shine, shine, shine, shine
Oh my, I cannot even express how envious I am of these. So stinkin adorable!
These are too precious!
Embrace the whit-gray sky… it totally works for the cool, dreamlike look you have going on here. These pictures are gorgeous, even if they weren’t according to your plan.
It turned out beautiful!! I absolutely love the tent!!
Beautiful!!! Love these!!
I hardly gave the sky a thought – all I could see was that amazing expanse of bluebonnets! Stunning backdrop for your adorable styling. Must make a spring field trip to Texas . . .
Oh.my.word. Your girls are beauties and of course, once again you have captured them in an amazing way! Love!!!
I agree.. I actually love the white/gray sky in these! Gorgeous friend! So so gorgeous!
are you kidding me right now? Your bluebonnets are SO MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUl than the smaller ones around here… and seriously? these are so absolutely fabulous!! i have no words… it is like when i used to call me mom and be in tears cause i just knew i failed the test and then come to find out I made a 98… you ace every test!
These pictures are PERFECT!!!!
You lied to me!!! These are fantastic!!!
So…….. When are you coming to to shoot my family in Australia ???? This is stunning !
I just don’t believe that they could be “uncooperative.” They are too sweet. LOVE these…. perfect!
