Spring has sprung, and summer is knocking. The night was so perfect for this uptown photo shoot last week. The slight wind and warm air had me dreaming of the beach. We've been pretty lucky to have had such a mild winter and spring. I wonder if the warm temperatures will keep us sizzling this summer?

Opening a new backdrop is always fun. I just received this great new one from my Lemon Drop Stop. I can't wait to put it to use. Pippa, my ever constant guard dog supervised the unwrapping progress.

I order most of my backdrops on paper because I like the no glare finish, and the ease of hanging. Sometimes I make my own back drops with foam board and fabric. Take a look:

Lady, where have you been? I know that must be what my blog followers are thinking. But don't fret my pets, I'm back. Vacation was a roller coaster. I came back to so many good sessions that I got wrapped up in shooting and neglected my blog, and for that I apologize.

So ready to see some of the things I've been busy doing?




I've been collaborating with a fantastic group of woman on an idea that was sparked this fall. We have partnered with other vendors and together we are giving away an entirely FREE wedding. The venue, photographer, florist, cake, rentals... you name it we have it covered.

This has been very exciting! Now we are looking for that one special couple to share the day with us. We have a facebook page set up with all the details, so please pass this link along to anyone who is in need of this wonderful service.

Click here to "LIKE" our facebook page, and read the contest details.

This is BIG friends, this contest will be valued in the tens of thousands! Here are a couple still frames from yesterday.
