September 25, 2009 – 4:48 am

I had some bittersweet news today. I had a potential studio spot & it has fell through!! I have cried a bit, but know that something will come along eventually! I am keeping my faith out there. I have found that I just have to keep on believing. I have the phrase BELIEVE all over my house. It is my favorite word…. It has been the theme of my life…believe. The Miley song, “the Climb,” has been such the song of my life, and as I climb–believe!!!!

…Onto funner things! I had the honor of capturing the beautiful Mallorie!! We, yet again, endured the heat. It was 95 degrees, according to my iphone, but it seriously felt like 110 degrees! We drove around so we could “cool” off between locations… perfect idea for shooting in the heat!! You are gorgeous, Mallorie!!! Have a WONDERFUL Senior Year!!

.mini sessions are fun!. {Redding, CA Senior Photographer}

September 24, 2009 – 4:13 pm

I have really enjoyed doing the 30 Minute Senior “mini” sessions! These Senior sessions are more geared towards a  yearbook pose, but definately get a few fun shots in as well!  Yesterday I had a little “mini” session with Mahalia…Love this girl! I photographed her & her sisters awhile back! Sooo beautiful this family is!!!!! Thanks for enduring the heat, girl! You are stunning!!!

Photoshoots are always such an adventure!  There are always so many elements to them. It is such a continual growing process! I love experiencing new locations!   This photoshoot was at Alyssa’s home. It was so wonderful because we could cool down in between sets…. I loved the challenge of finding the light & places to pose!!! I had such a great time, Alyssa!!!  Thank you for letting me capture your beauty!!!!!

September 21, 2009 – 7:28 am

Thank you all for your continued patience as I enjoy this BUSY season of my career! I never expected it to take off as much as it has, so thank you for your support & patience! I feel so blessed & in awe of where it is & where it is going. I never dreamed I would be a photographer!! I always wanted to be a speech pathologist…. It’s amazing what comes our way along the journey of our life!!!

I took my girls to a Miley Cyrus concert this weekend! Enjoyed her performance! She kept us singing & quite entertained with all of her outfit change-ups & stage sets! Quite a show she puts on!

Believe it or not in my career of photography I have only photographed FOUR Senior Guys! Today, I photographed my FIFTH guy!!! Loved the change up! Kept it simple…Receive a $25.00 print credit or $25.00 off of your session fee for any Senior Guy that you refer my way!!!!! And now for the photos of Reed! He was so awesome!! So enjoyed this session!!! Good luck with soccer & basketball this year!! Hope it’s your best year ever!!!! Pursue your dreams & your passion!
