Birthday Girls
My two most favorite little girls celebrated their birthdays today.
Miss M's first birthday was on the 16th and Miss A's fifth is on the 25th.
It was a small affair, but it was just the right size. I hadn't seen the girls in a few months so it was certainly great to see them, and celebrating their birthdays was just an added bonus!
Miss A started school this year and tells me so far she loves it. And Miss M now has 6 teeth and is walking like nobody's business. They're growing up far too quickly, and I'm not sure I'm a fan of all this growing up business.
Enjoy some shots from today, of my two favorite wee ones.
Happy Birthday, kiddos!

My Memories Digital Scrapbooking Software: GIVE AWAY!
Let me start by saying I am not a scrapbooker, or really crafty of any sort. Things tend to look great in my head, but it all comes unraveled when it comes to execution.
And the thought of scrapbooking seemed rather daunting: paper, embellishments, choosing photos, printing the photos....it all seems like so much work. And it sounded expensive. BUT, with My Memories Digital Scrapbooking it is all right there at your finger tips for you, in one easy download. No fuss, no muss, and no glitter to have to vacuum up afterwards!
I was recently given the opportunity (thank you, My Memories!) to try out the My Memories Digital Scrapbooking Software. I have to tell you it was actually pretty easy! And fun! When I said I wasn't crafty or a scrapbooker I wasn't kidding. So if I can do it, you totally can!

Calley & Kira
I recently had the opportunity to photograph two fabulous little girls: Calley and her sister Kira (big brother Jarrod was away for a few days). These two girls were so much fun to work with, they really are quite delightful! I think I enjoyed just hanging out with them after the photos the most! Seriously, two great girls!
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

A few to view
I haven't gotten to edit the photos from the shoot with my friend and her fam-jam. It seems I had my camera set to shoot the photos in RAW. Yeah, it turns out I can't open those files without Photoshop. My great friend (for whom I took the photos) is hooking me up....so I just have to be patient awhile longer.
For now, here are just a couple randoms I took while I was on vacation.

Back to Reality
My vacation is over. Booo....I guess it had to end sometime.
My vacation went well. Saw some old friends, spent time with family. It was good. Much needed.
My first photo shoot went surprisingly well. Though I didn't think until afterwards that their cars are visible in the background. Ooppss....Lesson learned! Oh well, their girls are adorable enough you won't notice the cars anyway!
As for the photos I'll hopefully find time over the next few days to get to editting them, then will naturally share with you all!
Until then...my new puppy and I are off to bed!
Ciao!

My First Photo Shoot
Yup, thats right. My very first photo shoot will be taking place next week.
Now, for those of you who have kept up with my on Facebook (and for those who haven't....why not?!) know that I love taking photos of my nieces. Honestly I think they are among the most photographed kiddos out there. However, those photos have always been for my enjoyment, or that of the kiddlets' parents' and their grandparents (my parents). So if none of them turn out or I didn't feel like sharing I didn't have to. I've never actually taken photos FOR someone before. Now it counts.
My friend has enlisted me to take some shots of her kids, at least her two girls...it remains to be determined of her oldest, and only son, will willingly cooperate! If not, it'll just be us girls. The date has yet to be determined, as it'll depend on weather.
Its exciting and nerve wracking all at the same time!
Wish me luck!
Oh, and if any of you out there in photography land have any pointers....lay 'em on me!
