Get ready for picture overload....




















This my friend Connie. She is a beautiful person inside and out and such a free spirit. She is also a fellow photographer. She had asked me to shoot some photos of her. Lets just say that we had such a great time and l took over 350 photos. Only half way through them.
I just love her eyes. I call them cats eyes.
I have to say that they look abit off after resizing for the web. They look so different in photoshop. Let me know if they look to crazy on color.
Just got back from shooting my first wedding of the year. Had a great time but am so tired. One down 16 to go...lol
Congrads guys...i wish all the best.
So looking forward to tomorrow....it's Mother's Day!

We were all blessed this weekend with such awesome weather.
Spent all weekend enjoying the great outdoors.
The only thing is a l got far to much colour. I usually go brown as a berry...but it was the first colour of the year and well lets just say l am feelin the sun right now.....but l will be brown when l wake up.
Had sometime to kill this evening so l thought that l would browse my favorite site in the whole wide world "2 peas in a bucket"...but its down :(...for those of you how don't know what it is...it's only the best photography and scrapbook site in the whole wide world. Oh ya Happy belated national scrapbook day everyone....

I have a confession.................





well l thought l would share in a little confession on where l have been spending my time and have a huge addiction to....
FACEBOOK
A friend introduced me to this site a few weeks back....
and now it has turned into a full force addiction.
Its a site where you can reconnect with long lost friends, family...etc.
You have had a chance to see where alot of people are in their lives.
I love it...you should check it out.

Had to share my little man today...
the before and the after.
He is just so sweet and still has that baby look.
I love it.

a different point of view....my husband was behind the camera







so as you all know l am always behind the camera....
my daughter said to me yesterday "mommy there isn't very many pictures of you and me"...
Now l know that this is very true...for l so hate getting my picture taken...
but l realized yesterday that this is sad...and l want my children to have pictures of us together in all stages of their life.
So what if l feel l need to be 20 pounds lighter...l need make up on and need to do my hair...
so what!
So here l am with my husband and kiddos at the park last night... oh natural!
This is the way that l look most days...unless we are going out.
This is the way the kids think of me.
My husband thought he was just the little photographer. I think he did pretty good.

that's me...minus no make up and my roots look like they need a touch up ASAP.
oh well!

our conversion today...

So some of you might know...l have been sick with the flu this week and have to energy or drive to do anything...
so....
today l walked my Alyssa room and saw a HUGE mess.
I said to her "Alyssa, please clean up your room".
20 minutes go by and nothing....
again "Alyssa l said please clean up your room"....
still nothing.
So l then go to her bedroom door and stand there saying nothing.....
she looks at me and says...
"Mom l know...don't say it again...your giving me such a huge headache."
Alyssa l love ya.....

Hi there guys...
I am evaluating my camera bag making sure that l have all the bases covered for my up coming weddings.
Just bought a wide angle lens and it is on the way.
Can't want to play.
It's a 17-35mm F/2.8
I am wondering what my fellow photography friends carry in their bag.....
what they use the most
and what they wish they had.
Lets here it. Tell me whats in yours!
I can tell you what l want....
a 70-200mm F/2.8
maybe in my dreams.
