Perhaps I am a little biased. I think that my niece is one of the most perfect little models. She’s always smiling and she’s at just the right age! She sits up and she can crawl but, she isn’t fast enough to get away. Yet.
Over the Christmas holidays I snapped some shots of her under the tree and I created a little card. This could very easily be modified to suit any birthday invites or holiday that you might like. Or we could just start from scratch and create a custom card just for you!

I found this and had to send it to you. I thought they might give you inspiration and a true end goal as these are the apex of all senior photographs.
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn’t see how every sign pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I think about the years I spent just passing through
I’d like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You’ve been there you understand
It’s all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Now I’m just rolling home
Into my lover’s arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I wanted to share our personal Christmas pictures with you. This was especially difficult this year, with Mac being mobile and all. Marley tried her best to help but, you know big sisters, they can only take so much! I did end up using one of these for our Christmas cards. Ask any photographer and they’ll tell you, photographing your children is the hardest thing to do! You’re always harder on yourself. You’re never satisfied. I love my kids though…and I think these photos are beautiful, despite myself. 
I’m getting back in the groove and who better to start that off with than Rebecca, Randall and Sarah!!! I love shooting these guys. They are too much fun!
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Life has really gotten in the way. It’s been hard and stressful and terrible… and I’m making it. Last week I lost my grandfather. It was like losing my daddy all over again. I’m still not recovered. I don’t think I ever really will be.
When the hurricanes hit us there was a benfit on the tv. Jason was working and missed it. I kept going on and on about the foo fighters version of ‘born on the bayou’. I loved it! It reminds me of my daddy…and now, to a certain extent, my grandfather.
So without further ado, here’s a little foo just for you.

Couple Get Wedding Photos After 27 Years

Oct 23, 5:08 PM (ET)p {margin:12px 0px 0px 0px;}MANSFIELD, Ohio (AP) – A couple won’t mark their 27th anniversary until Thursday, but they’ve already received the perfect gift: the wedding pictures they couldn’t afford when they married as teenagers. Their photographer showed up last week at the diner where Karen Cline works and surprised her with a photo album from her big day in 1980. “About a month ago, I was just cleaning out some of my old things and I found it,” said photographer Jim Wagner, who’s now 80. “I knew she didn’t have any money back then, and I just thought she might like to have it.”
“I just stood there and cried and cried and hugged him,” Cline said afterward, tearing up again.
She recalled being a new bride at 18 and admiring the pictures, but feeling heartsick because she and her husband, Mark, who was 19 at the time, didn’t have $150 to pay for them.
All these years, the Clines have had just one wedding picture that someone else took, of her walking down the aisle.
Wagner said he was able to track down Karen Cline after running into her stepfather a few weeks ago.
When the photographer showed up in the diner, she wrote him a check for the long-awaited $150 – and that’s when he cried, she said.
I must be the worst aunt ever. I totally forgot to post the new pictures of my beautiful niece Natalie!! Ugh, life is too busy for me right now.
I absolutely cannot wait to meet this little miracle baby. Her mother is my cousin, Joy. Mommy is absolutely glowing and Daddy Rusty couldn’t be any prouder! We’ve been waiting on this little miracle for what seems like an eternity. I guess a few more days won’t hurt.
