Almost 6....

I got to hang out with these two ladies just before someone's 6th birthday. It was, of course, delightful. I really enjoy the years where a person is not too cool for silliness. And of course I love seeing how much she loves her Mom.

3 months out

Time has zipped by and though this blog has been silent, my shutter hasn't, over the next week or two I will share some snippets of all of the delightful people I have been able to spend time with and photograph (in no particular order). Tonight I will introduce you to this little guy, Joshua. I got to hang out with him to celebrate 3 months on the outside. Even though the day ended with me standing in an ant hill (thankfully Joshua was un-nibbled on) it was such a treat to get to document this special time.

50 years

On August 17 this sweet pair will be celebrating 50 years of wedded bliss. Nothing is so heart warming as a well worn love that has been through all of the ups and downs of life. I am so glad I got to participate in some small way with them.

This is what I am playing around with now ....

I had a fabulous time (in spite of occasional stress because I was in such an unfamiliar place) with Laura and Andrew's wedding in NoLa and I have finally gotten to the fun part of the editing too. Woot!

dedicated

Last week these three precious ones got dedicated... I was going to wait to share them until I was done with wedding stuff, but I couldn't resist.

Laura & Andrew - Engagement

 I couldn't tell you how we met, but for large chunks of high school Laura and I were basically inseperable, so much so that she has been adopted into my crazy family. After high school she stayed part of the family but we have about 800 miles between us most of the time so you can imagine how excited I was to be able to spend some time with my dear friend and her fiance.

He seems to bring out the best in her, and he certainly brings out the smiles. I can't wait for their wedding this March!
