“hope for haiti”

*all current posts will be added UNDER this post*
we are leaving this post pinned to the top of this page,not just today and tomorrow, but every day this entire year … to remind us everyday … the devastation and suffering that our brothers and sisters are experiencing in Haiti and for that matter, suffering in any part of our world. we have donated and will continue to donate to the Hope For Haiti cause and other organizations in need, for the entire year of 2010. the need for ONGOING donations is a must in order for there to be recovery. every wedding package booked, every portrait session booked , every print order that is made, we will donate a portion to this cause and to others.

go to ITUNES and buy the album … help haiti heal. God Bless!

me session with a friend

03.10.10 | me/style

we had no agenda for taking these photos other than to hang out and have fun … just friends, playing in a cornfield with stylin clothes, high heels and a camera. she is incredibly beautiful, talented, caring, genuine and one of my closest friends.

thank you for everything all of the time forever!

hugs!!

selfish and beautiful

03.7.10 | me/style

selfish me … beautiful subject!
i am obsessed with my camera and what i can create or try to create with it. and while i love shooting weddings, engagements and kids … one area i have been neglecting, is shooting for me and my selfish pleasure. my head is full of so many things i want to do with this camera of mine and at times, it can be like an itch that just cant be scratched!! the creative process must take place!! and so with that begins my ME sessions … shooting for the love of it, and exactly the way i want it.
my first me subject … robyn. i have worked with robyn several times and knew that she could help me achieve my vision for her session. she is knock out gorgeous, and her confidence in front of the camera is exactly what i needed, to get this look. she was flawless! soon i will be posting more about this fabulous woman and her successful hair salon in washington.
BUT enough chatter! i have always felt that a photography blog should be about the photography … period. so now on to the MANY images that finally made it out of my head and into print!
