Bambi Cantrell and Jim Garner Workshop

For all of you photographers out there you need to check into this! This workshop is
being held by the one photographer who helped change my career...Bambi Cantrell! Bambi Blew me away several years ago with an incredible education on the art of photography and the business aspect that is so important. She is teaming up with another amazing photographer Jim Garner. Jim is one of my closest friends and someone who has taken his business did a total reinvention. Both of their images have won some of the highest honors in the industry, so needless to say an in depth workshop with these two photographers is going to be a life changing experience for anyone who attends. Go to www.payitforwardworkshops.com and send them an e-mail for more information. I promise it will be incredible!




Carmen and Paul

Here is a little sneak peek into Carmen and Paul's day. They did a video slideshow at the wedding of their wedding day images. It was a hit and so much fun for them to get to reflect on everything that happened thoughout the day. Just a note to Paul and Carmen, It was such and honor and so much fun being your photographer. Thank you for everything! Big hugs to you both!

Back up and Back up again!

I'm sorry for not blogging in a while. I have been dealing with a hard drive that has went down on us...fun fun! We happen to be crazy around here about backing up our files in more than one location so that is a total blessing. But I just wanted to remind all the photographers out there to have at everything backed up multiple times. I have been counting my blessings that some good friends taught me that a long time ago! So if I can help someone to not loose files I want to. So this is your reminder :-) I promise you will be seeing some blogging this week. I just shot a wedding Saturday and we got to go out on the KC Chiefs field and take pictures! So much fun! But don't bother calling asking to do it because they assured me this was a one time deal. I guess there were some special circumstances that allowed this to happen, I'm just happy I was there
to photograph it! I promise to share :-)

So we took cover on the front porch of an old house close by, here a a few pictures from the session. The last pic you can see chloe is biting her nails just watching the rain.

Jason & Liza....wedding and engagement!

I wanted to share a couple of photos from Liza and Jason's engagement and wedding! They booked with me a long time ago, and finally the day came. As always Liza looked beautiful and both of them were so laid back and a total joy to work with. Thanks to Liza and Jason for letting me photograph such an amazing day in their lives!

Sandy and Dave

I just wanted to show you a picture of my sweet Sandy! I babysat Sandy and her sister Emily for YEARS! So when I got the phone call to fly to Dallas to photograph her wedding there was only one answer...YES! then my second thought was DANG I'M GETTING OLD! lol ;-) I tried to boss her around and make her see the groom ahead of time but she pretty much told me my days of bossing her around were over...Darn! lol :-) So when Sandy makes her beautiful walk down the isle it will be Dave's first time to see her that day, and I am VERY supportive of that...because Sandy told me I was supportive of it! LOL! just joking! I'm so excited and cannot wait to see her in May!!
