Hi there!





Yes I know, it has been way too long since my last real post. There are no excuses and I feel terrible about this. I do not like to feel overwhelmed because of the things I am not doing. I am a firm believer that no real change will come without first taking personal responsibility for what I do not like about my life, and avoiding this blog is one of those things. I keep a blog so that I can have an outlet to share my work and to reflect on what I am doing. I try to keep myself open to inspiration everyday and I would love to share my inspiration with others... Like it or leave it , this is my commitment to blog more regularly! I am making a commitment to be honest and open and to not worry about offending someone or what someone might think of me. I admire people who are not afraid to be themselves and I wanna be just like them! :)


With that being said, here is what is going on with me. I moved back to KY a month ago and I love it. We have a huge house that has tons of room for shooting and a pretty kick ass office as well. It is amazing how much a little space can really kick in your productivity. Since I moved in I have been meeting lots of wonderful couples mostly through referrals from friends and past clients, something I am very thankful for! I set a goal for the number of weddings I wanted to book in 2010 and I am already 1 wedding away from reaching it. I have a big Boudoir marathon coming up on Saturday, so excited about that as well... other than that I have pretty much been trying to fill this giant house up with furniture, which is a job in itself. I have been on the hunt in thrift stores searching for treasures. There is something about finding that jewel in a pile of rubble that gives me such a thrill. I like finding things that have history, things I can make unique with a few coats of paint. Dave says he likes going with me because he loves to see how excited I get when I find something cool! :)

I took my nephew and sister to the Ollie's skate park in Florence the other night. We had so much fun and I was happy to photograph some color finally, it has been so gray lately. FYI photographing skateboarders and bikers is not easy at all. Lots of props to all of the photographers that manage to do it so well!
