shar — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 23:53:29 +0000

A quick video from a very special Senior Session! Not only was this session twice as long as normal, but it was twice as special! This isn’t just any senior…this is MY senior in high school! Yes, I have a senior in high school, it’s hard to believe, it seems like it was just yesterday when I was sending her off to kindergarten. My, how quickly they grow!

Photo Pendant Necklaces

You’ve probably noticed things have been a little quiet around here lately! No, I haven’t been on vacation…I wish! Instead I’ve been busy creating, photographing and marketing all sorts of new goodies just for you! To prove it, here are the first of several new items I will be adding to the shoppe…photo pendant necklaces! These 1″ silver-plated pendants feature original photos of mine sealed under durable and waterproof resin. They are hung from sixteen inch long, either linen or leather necklaces and a complimentary silver-plated charm is added for a unique finishing touch. I hope you like them as much as I do! You can get yours in the shoppe right now or if you live local and want to save yourself the shipping fee, just contact me through the contact form above for pick-up information!

It came today! The Kelly Moore b-hobo camera bag in red! It took a little longer than expected to receive, but was so worth the wait! The leather is soft and smooth, the hardware is solid and durable, i love the color and there is soooo much room inside! It’s worth every penny! My daughter said it looks like a purse! I told her, that’s the idea!

Happy 4th of July Weekend!

We’ve been enjoying ourselves this weekend with some very traditional activities…cooking out, watching fireworks and toasting marshmallows around the campfire! The kids even did a little tie-dying as you can see in the top picture and had some fun “drawing” with a flashlight in the dark while I took some pics with a very slow shutter speed! BTW, isn’t this flag layout fun! It’s an action from MCP Actions and you can get it too…for free…right here! Happy 4th of July everyone!

Baby J – WNY Newborn Photographer

shar — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 22:02:45 +0000

A few images from a recent newborn session with baby “J”! Such a handsome little guy, and cooperative too! He slept the entire time for me and didn’t even mind being naked! I was so excited to be able to use some of the props I’ve been collecting. I’m in love with the baby scale and the doll carriage looked so beautiful outside in front of my peony bush! I hope this little guy’s mom loves these images as much as I do!

shar — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 23:57:45 +0000

I didn’t have to look very far for a subject to photograph for this weeks I Heart Faces “Celebrating Teens” photo challenge. As of last Sunday I officially became the mother of TWO teenagers! Then, just to add insult to injury my oldest daughter (pictured above) asked to go and get her drivers permit this week! Time really has flown by while we have been having fun!

June 14 – I Heart Faces “All About Babies” Entry

shar — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 13:57:47 +0000

My entry for this weeks photo challenge “All About Babies” at I Heart Faces! This little guy was such a pleasure to photograph. He slept the entire time, he didn’t pee on me once and every now and then he’d give me this sweet little smile! I told him he was going to spoil me and fool me into thinking every baby is this easy to photograph…but he just kept on sleeping and being the perfect little angel!

Bella by LadybirdDee featuring DKNY tops

LadybirdDee was so inspired by my horse image she put together this gorgeous set titled “Bella” on Polyvore. I’m loving every piece of it…this could be very dangerous for my pocket book!
