So as we quickly approach 2012, it has been crazy to reflect back on the past year. What a whirlwind it has been both in and out of my business! I spent the beginning of the year overcoming morning sickness and getting back into the swing of things… which was a good thing as my business really took off in February. Between tons of sweet newborns and being featured on [FRAMED] things were pretty much non-stop until July when we welcomed sweet little Layla into our family. And we can’t forget about selling our house and moving into our studio when I was 37 weeks pregnant. Then with a 5th child, a smaller house and a crazy busy business, life has been on the go ever since. Of course, this last month, my business took on a new look with a a new logo and branding.
With such a busy year, I’ve had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people and snuggle so many beautiful babies. I’ve been very blessed!
To celebrate the year I’m having a contest for all of my clients! I’ve created a “Favorites of 2011″ album on my Facebook Wall. The photo with the most comments under it will receive a FREE 4×5 custom storybook (valued at $500) from their next session and a $25 Target gift card!
To vote for your favorite image, first go to my FACEBOOK PAGE and click the “LIKE” button at the top. Then you’ll need to find your favorite image in the “FAVORTIES OF 2011″ album and leave a COMMENT under the photo.
The contest will end at midnight on 12/31/11 so go vote now!!!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this year fabulous!!!

Oh man, she was such a blast to photograph!! She required almost NO direction… basically just fell into every pose.
L – you were an incredible MODEL!! Thanks for such a fun shoot!

I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve blogged! I’m feeling more and more behind, but it’s time to catch up and get back on top of things!!
I photographed C almost 2 months ago and we had a blast! I’ve actually known her for quite a few years, but it wasn’t until her senior session that I really got to know who she was and just how amazing of a person she really is! She’s incredibly smart, plays the piano like you wouldn’t believe, has an amazing singing voice, and she’s an incredible pole vaulter!! The list goes on, and really you just can’t say enough good things about her!
You’re going places, C and I wish you the best of luck on your journey!!

Yup- I’m still squeezing in those last minute senior shoots before the yucky weather gets here. This one was so fun… She was such a natural infront of the camera which made for an easy night for me.
Thanks J!
