  • Photography Contest Winner

    Photobucket

    I don’t enter many contests, mostly because I always miss the deadlines
    for them:):) But I was so excited today when I found out that I placed
    5th in a really cool photography contest. This is a contest that is
    voted on by other photographers so it makes it even more exciting that
    I won!

    I Love this image of Andy being super GQ!

    We are really busy over here working on a ton of stuff….but coming
    soon to the blog will be more information about the workshop I am
    offering, pictures of the Graves family, Nicole and Steven’s Wedding,
    and pictures of the Wright Family!! We’ve been busy!!!!

  • Exciting News

    Photobucket

    I’m so excited to announce that Jennifer Bowen
    and I will be holding a 3 hour workshop for those who are just starting
    out in photography. This is great for parents and amateur photographers
    who are wanting to take better pictures.

    I get a lot of
    questions from parents and people who are wanting to learn the basics
    of photography and how to take good pictures. Jen and I decided that we
    would love to help out in that area!

    The workshop will be
    Saturday, June 28, 2008 from 1:00 – 4:00 PM at my studio in downtown
    Mesa. We will be posting more details soon so be sure to check back
    next week for more information and how to register. Feel free to email me or leave a comment if you are interested!!

  • Congratulations David Cook!!!

    Photobucket

    This
    is the first American Idol season that I have watched and I was a loyal
    Tivo viewer… I have to admit that towards the end I even voted on my
    ATT wireless phone:).

    My husband and I are huge David Cook
    fans… I do think that Archeletta has an amazing voice, but David Cook
    is a better performer!

    Last night my husband and I had a baby
    class and didn’t get home until 10:00 PM so we started watching the
    show then… we got to the end and laughed jokingly that the Tivo would
    cut out on us at the end…… yea, well right when they said “and the
    winner is” ( no joke)… the tivo stopped. Are you kidding me???
    Luckily thanks to technology we were able to hop on the internet, pull
    up You Tube and watch the ending. It was good and I was so happy and
    excited.

    Both Davids are great and are going to have wonderful careers, but I have to say a big Congrats to Cook!!!!

  • Albums Galore!!!

  • Friend in the Army

    I have a friend from High School who was pretty much like my brother. I’ve been trying to find a way to find him because he’s in the military and haven’t had any luck. Well today I found some pictures and a video about him… he makes me proud!!!

    I still don’t have his contact info and hope that I can get it, but I wanted to share this with you. It’s amazing the things these guys are doing for people and it makes me so honored to know Shaun and see who he has become!

  • My Cute Nephews growing up!!

    So Aidan and Liam turned 2 on May 1st and we went to celebrate
    in Pinetop! I can’t believe how  big they are getting and how much they
    keep changing on me. They are so smart and so cute!!!!

  • Cassandra’s Senior Pictures

    Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

    My
    last class of 2008 senior was awesome!!!! Cass is an aspiring
    photographer and is very used to being on one side of the camera, but
    not on this side. She was a little nervous, but did an awesome job.

    We
    had a great time running around finding a ton of fun places to take
    pictures and we also incorporated her love of photography.

    Cass, you did awesome!!!

    I’m
    so excited for the class of 2009!!! We will start taking those pictures
    in September once the weather cools down a little, but feel free to
    start talking to us now about your pictures!

  • Lost Addict

    My friend Melissa
    just posted about her addiction to the TV show Lost. She also posted a
    “who are you most like” picture so of course I had to take the test to
    see who I was most like.

    Now I am totally addicted to this
    show… I think it is the best show on TV and my husband and I watch it
    faithfully! If you haven’t seen it you should go rent them all now and
    watch them in a weekend… how fun is that!!!!

    Ok, so the person I am most like….

    Charlie…
    hmmmm… I love Charlie so I guess that works.. although I don’t really
    see me being like him for a lot of reasons.. but guess it’s better than
    some:)

    Who are you most like?
