Whitney (Just Because )

August 22, 2009

Whitney asked me the other day if I would take her picture,  anyway so then she posted on her blog how I had taken her pictures, so since she has a trillion people that follow her blog, naturally they wanted to see them! she told me that they commented and told her they couldn’t wait to see them ( I think she was excited about them herself) hahah! I was like umm well I have some other pictures to edit first and she was like “well think of how many blog hits you will get!” why did she have to tempt my weakest spot?!?! I of course love nothing better than, when you guys keep coming by! I may or may not check my blog stats every few hours, but I mean I don’t know why I think everyone is going to keep coming by if all they see is the same blog post for a week! anyways so here are her pictures!

So are you guys wondering where I our props came from??

Well I shall tell you whether you are curious or not!!

They came from My Aunt Julie’s you can find her here! We are a blogging family I tell ya! The pictures were also taken at her gorgeous house and I loved the light and all the buildings they have that I might just go back again! 

Well that is all I have two more sessions to edit and post hopefully I will have those done soon :)

Ok if you follow Whitney’s blog you must leave a comment! Why you ask? Because I said so, and I want to know who you are, she had such a good time at the Healthy Living Summit, and all she has talked about is how sweet everyone was so naturally I want to meet all of you guys! So leave me some love!

Jennifer is Matt’s first cousin and Stephen is her husband, they have been married for 3 years and haven’t had their picture made since then so she asked if I would take their pictures for them! I was honored that they wanted me to :) Stephen only suffered a few ant bites on his feet in the process, I think it was worth it though.

Emily & Logan are my soon to be family! I told their grandmother my future Aunt Kay (confused yet?) that I was trying to get into photography and that I would love to take some pictures of her grandbabies if I could,  so the other night Matt’s mom had a cookout at her house & Aunt Kay asked if I could bring my camera and take some pictures of her grandbabies, I told her that I would be glad to!

Last night I was going to take some pictures of the flowers over at “our house” (by our house I mean Mine and the boy’s house) they are so pretty and yellow.  Well not so smart little me let my camera battery die so it wouldn’t take any pictures!   I just got around to putting it on the charger, all of this is to say that I downloaded some pictures and found some that I had forgot about! Don’t you just love when that happens? I do, it’s like finding a dollar in your old pants pocket! So here is a few of them I hope you enjoy them!

Dearest Blog :)

July 15, 2009

I’m sorry for not posting this week yet, but…

I have a good excuse ok. Meredith is in Mexico; hence the post Meredith & The Rusty Barrel. So that means I have been working 6-5 everyday and I’m one of those people that requires 10-12 hours of sleep every night. I kid you not! So when I get home from work I go to bed, and think nothing about you little blog! I’m sorry I will never do that to you again. I know it’s not fun to be abandoned without a thought or glance your way…to all of you guys that come read this poor sorry excuse for a blog; I will do better ok!?!?!

I was nervous at first about starting a blog I was all: ‘what if I don’t ever have anything to post?’ This week has been kind of like that, I have not had much of anything to post and I haven’t felt inspired at all…then today I get this sweet email from my friend saying that she and her boyfriend would be glad to pose for me! I got all kinds of inspiration then!

I had this voice in my head taunting me. Every time I would think about posting something it would say  "Come on like anyway will want to read that!"  Then I realized that you have to get over the self doubt, get on with your life, just doing what you think is best and tell that little voice that it has no business being around; get lost! But it’s a pesky little dude and likes to taunt you like a bully will taunt a quivering child! So guys I have kicked that little pesky voice to the curb and he is out on the streets, don’t feel bad for him and let it him live with you! He will just drag you down with him……

So a little verse to get us all through the day!

Do not be overcome by evil, But overcome evil with good.

Romans 12:21 NIV

I think of it like this do not be overcome by self doubt, overcome self doubt with SELF CONFIDENCE!

So do ya want to see pictures now???

These pictures are from NODA :) Enjoy!

July 8, 2009

The other night at my Uncle Alan’s (aka Bonk’s) birthday I decided that Elizabeth and Sherwin needed pictures to document their relationship… So I drug them out into the field, everyone else followed along with us and gave me great idea’s… A shout out to Heather & Meredith for all the help! Heather I can’t wait to practice shooting with you I’m so glad you bought you a camera!!! Ok but back to Lizzie and Sherwin, they had a blast of course Lizzie only got one cricket down her shirt and I only stepped in one ant hill!
