Happy 2010!!

I hope you all had a wonderful 2009! I know I sure did and I can't wait to experience what 2010 has to offer. To start off the year, I will be launching a new website & blog in the next month. And I have a little something special from the session below that I just cannot wait to share.
... All in due time...

In 2010, I want to remind you to cherish all that's around you. I know I want to keep in better contact with the ones I love, hug more, laugh more, relax more, and soak up every bit of this year that I can. I don't want to get to the end of 2010 and feel like it all went by too fast (like I do this year, and every other one.) I don't want to have any regrets and I truly plan to live every day to the fullest. Like I might not have another. That's what I want my life to represent.
So, cheers to a new year and may you be blessed in all you do!

TGIF Randomness...

I don't really have anything too specific to blog about today. I do have tons of awesome weddings & shoots to post, but finding the time is near to impossible. I have two more weddings for 2009 and then will have a little bit of a break before the 2010 season kicks in, which I am super stoked about - the break and the 2010 season. :) Right now I have 11 fabulous couples I'm working with and I can already tell 2010 is going to be another amazing year. Which brings me to the thought, if you are looking to book for 2010, please contact me soon. I am only commissioning 24 weddings and May is already booked full, and June is almost there. I am definitely counting my blessings during these economic times!!

On a more personal note, we had a great Thanksgiving. We got to see almost all of our families, and will get to see the rest of our siblings and families in December, which is pretty amazing considering we have 10 siblings all together... almost all with kids, so that doesn't happen to often in one holiday season. I'm so excited about these next few months... my birthday is next week, then Hanukkah, then Bryan and I will celebrate our 6th anniversary, New Years will be soon after, then Abi's bday in January, Bryan's in February and Elijah will turn 1 in March - only 4 months away. Life is going by way too fast and I'm just trying to do my best to soak it all in and count my blessings.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and continues to has a wonderful holiday season!! And a great weekend at that!

Here are some recent pics of my sweet kiddos... Enjoy!

Peek a boo ;)

Yep, he has an crimson wall - Boomer Sooner Baby!!
(except that we haven't had too great of a football season, but we won't get into that)

This boy... EVERYTHING goes straight to the mouth

One of my favorite sessions with her

This is my sweet little girl. She's kind of a big deal ;)

Elijah just adores Abi. When she walks in from school, he flips out with excitement.
I love to see them make each other smile.

And this is just about as good as it gets as far as getting pics of the two of them together.

Well, thanks for indulging me and my random thoughts.

Anne + Ben: Married!!

I have a lot of sweet clients. I just do, and I am so thankful for that. But Anne is of a different world... of the most sweetest, like I don't know if you could make her mad if you tried. She's just that nice! And Ben, he is so gentle, and kind, and loving towards her. It's really touching to experience these two together and their undying love for each other. Their day was simple, beautiful and perfectly displayed the personalities of these two. I couldn't have imagined a more ideal day for Anne, and I am blessed I was a part of it! So on to the pics...

Here is Anne's lovely bouquet and gown.

I love the excitement and energy in this image!

Wowzers!!

And Ben and the guys were looking quite dapper themselves!

Okay, these two are going to have gggooorrrggeous babies someday, if I might say so myself. :)

Oh my goodness, LOVE the way she's looking at him!

Right as we walked outside it started to sprinkle, but we didn't let that stop us!!

The cake topper was Anne's grandparents. It was perfectly vintage!

Once again, you can just see how much Anne adores Ben. It's so heartwarming!

Gotta love friends that toilet paper your car ;)

Anne & Ben,
You guys were sssooooo great to work with and I enjoyed every moment of the process. I hope you guys are doing well out in D.C. and I know God will bless you in so many ways!
