Some of my favorite things right now……

One of my favorite artists and my latest favorite song by him….

Chai latte’s.

My 50mm lens.

Raspberry salsa.

Sandlewood incense.

Fresh fruit and veggies from the garden.

Camping and swimming in the summer.

Sitting around a camp fire any time of the year.

Sissy’s name for corn on the cob: crisp-n-cobb

Sitting on the beach with my family and soaking in the late afternoon sun.

Watching my angel bug get braver and more grown up by the day.

Wheat thins, cream cheese, & raspberry jalapeno jam.

Newborn, children, & senior sessions.

Weekend ~ Spokane Newborn Photographer

July 10, 2010

Wishing you all a great weekend!!!

Thankful ~ North Idaho Newborn Photographer

July 7, 2010

After this weekend, for so many reasons, I have much to be thankful for. I woke up in the WORST mood this morning…..but thankfully, it was nothing that a little bit of photo editing and Pandora can’t cure! I have tons of client sessions to edit…..but for right now….I really need these photos. Without my family….I can’t provide my clients with my best work…..so….with that said…..lucky you! I am sharing the 3 people that make me SO HAPPY….and I am so THANKFUL for!!! Then, it’s back to work for me!!! I have the most adorable baby waiting to be edited!!! Love babies!

I LOVE this man……and this photo……I LOVE his work boots, carhart pants, Bailey’s Plumbing sweatshirt, the backwards hat, and the fact that he is taking work calls on our camping vacation…..he never takes a minute off, always providing for us…….such a great man, husband, dad. My best friend.

I LOVE this little man…..his blond hair and blue eyes do me in every time…and he knows it. Such a mama’s boy….with a kind heart….but so full of spunk and bossiness…hmmm…I wonder where that comes from? He is growing up so fast…climbing 15-20 feet up a tree…playing with sticks in the fire….exploring……I don’t care how “big” he gets….he will always be my baby. And he will always make my heart pitter patter.

I LOVE this little girl…….her giant blue eyes and perfect little face…….covered in strawberry jam…..she is our sunshine. One time a lady called her “child of the light”, I am not sure what that means…..but she is our Light and so bright. She is sweet as pie and could be on comedy central…..her favorite saying lately is “silly mommy!”. You forgot my water silly mommy…..you forgot to get my snack silly mommy……you forgot to wipe my face silly mommy. A miniature Staci they say…..but all I see is BELLA….BEAUTY….BEAUTIFUL. She makes me so HAPPY!

I mean really? How could you NOT love her? Her Aunt Jen bought her a case of princess shoes….oops…silly mommy…I mean “glass slippers!” She wears them constantly even is she doesn’t have the match!

Sorry Bellie…..all the silly, goofy, quirky things are what I love most about you…..even your pouty poo poo faces! xo

Phew! I feel so much better now….amazing what a little gratitude will do! I hope you all have a FABULOUS day!!! xo

Sweetheart ~ Sandpoint Childrens Photographer

July 7, 2010

Just one for today…..isn’t she just a sweetheart? I think so….and somebody’s son thinks so too! His first crush….sshhhh!!! I didn’t say a word!

Five ~ North Idaho Childrens Photographer

June 25, 2010

Happy Friday! Yes…it’s been SO STALE around here lately….sorry about that….but stale blog means busy me! True…..school is out….but that doesn’t mean that life slows down…not one bit!…..with swim lessons going on….birthdays and Father’s Day this month….planning camping trips…..paper work for Bailey’s Plumbing……and lots of fabulous sessions…..life is still busy as ever! And now, for more bad news…..it’s going to be stale for a little bit longer…sorry folks! Next week should be better I hope!

Just a little something for today….the birthday boy! Tomorrow he is five. I can’t believe where the time has gone. I didn’t know about custom photography back when my angel bug was a baby….the ONE thing in life I regret over and over again….but I have to say at least the camera we bought took some decent pictures….and with a little bit of photoshopping I was able to actually make this photo look much better! I miss this little man SO MUCH!!! XOXOXO

But am enjoying who he is becoming….although just for one day I want to go back to when he was brand new. Brings tears to my eyes….doesn’t seem fair how fast it all goes….and then some days you think it isn’t going fast enough. An evil trick motherhood is. But I wouldn’t have it any other way. Happy Birthday Big “O”!!! We are so proud of you and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE you so much!!! You are a true joy and just when I don’t think I can love you any more….I do…and then some! Happy Birthday angel bug! I hope you have a fabulous birthday weekend!!! XOXOXO

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

A little bit of this and that today……

* Summer is right around the corner….I can feel it!!! I am really hoping the weather clears up this afternoon for a fun family session I have scheduled with the winner of the Fairytale give away, who just happens to be a friend of mine from high school! Can’t wait to meet her little guy!!!

* Last night, we had a family date night….went to 2nd Ave for pizza – our favorite!….and then to Starbucks for an after dinner treat!…BAD IDEA! I was up until 3:00 am this morning! OUCH! Then, off to see Shrek in the movie theater! It was the first time the kids have been to a movie so it was super fun!!! I told my husband he better stop and get tickets before dinner just in case we couldn’t get in!!! I know, I know sounds silly for a movie on a Wednesday night….but hey! The last time I went to a movie was 5+ years ago! I am a little rusty! Well….that certainly wasn’t the case because us four and two other girls had the entire movie theater to ourselves!!! ha! I guess nobody wanted to go to the movies in the middle of the week during a horrendous thunder/rain storm!!! No…just the Bailey Circus! But that was OK….we loved every minute of it!!! Even the power outage half way through! If you haven’t seen it, it really is an awesome movie!

* I finally added a facebook page for Bailey’s Plumbing Inc! I am not too sure my hubby is very excited about that…but, he leaves the computer work to me….so now he has a page! hee hee Please go over and give him some “love”….like him! He doesn’t know what “like” is….but I know he will appreciate it! And plus! You never know when you might need a plumber!

* Speaking of face book LOVE…..I am 10 itty bitty people away from having 600 “likers”! WOOT! So if you aren’t a liker yet, please stop on over and like my page! Another give away coming once I hit 600!!!

* I have seriously been neglecting my garden lately. Neglecting a lot of things actually. And not even sure why I am posting that….but just getting it out makes me feel better. Odd I know.

* OK…speaking of neglecting things….my kitchen is on that list….so I better get going…..have some house to clean and a newborn session to finish up!!!

* Last one…..I am really into the smiley’s today…could you tell?

* OK…for reals….last one….what do you think this little darling is thinking? I don’t know either….but she sure is cute!!! And I love her dress!!! Another Fairytales favorite! More to come of this sweet angel soon!!! And of course I can’t end without a

Little Fish ~ Sandpoint, Coeur d’ Alene, Spokane Children’s Photographer

May 27, 2010

A while back I saw the Professional Photographer Magazine 2010 Cover Photo Contest was taking place and thought it would be fun to enter….at the time I had no idea what in the heck to enter….I have so many favorites and in reality……I am a small fish in a very large pond! But I thought what the heck I might as well have some fun and do it!!! Yesterday, looking at my calender I realized the deadline to enter a photo is June 1st!!! ACK! I spaced that one….but luckily it’s not too late!! After going through my photos over and over again…..I kept coming back to this image. Not sure why……probably because she’s mine…..and BEAUTIFUL…..and those eyes just grab a hold of me whenever I see this picture. Just since last night there have been 140 views to her photo and 27 ratings!!….so THANK YOU if you are a facebook fan…uh, I mean “liker”……and went and voted for my picture!!! I could use more views and ratings so if you are a gamer….here’s the link!!!! Thanks in advance for taking the time to vote!!!!
