The end of 2008

We are drawing near to the close of another year. Say farewell to 2008!!!! I can't believe how fast this year has flown by. I look how fast my children have grown and it makes me want to stop time. I also see how fast all of your children grow as I capture their milestones and it really is something remarkable.

I want to thank all of my wonderful clients for making memories with me this year. I have been so blessed to meet so many new people and have made many new friends.

I was thinking of all the special things that have happened this year and there are several things that I'm thankful for. I am so thankful for my new studio! It has made a tremendous difference in my workflow!!! But I am most thankful for my wonderful family for putting up with the endless hours it takes to run a photography business and loving me all the same.

I have received so many compliments this year from many of you regarding my work and the images that I produce for your families.................those compliments let me know exactly why I'm doing this, how much I love it and why it's all worth it. I hope to continue to bring you images that touch your hearts they way they touch mine.

Christmas was wonderful for my family. I hope that you and yours had just the same. Here are a couple of images taken during the holidays.

Happy New Year from my family to yours!!!!!

Necklaces......

Here are a couple of new images of the necklaces that I'm offering now. There still may be time to get a necklace in for Christmas!!!! All jewelry is custom made with gemstones by http://www.inspirationsbytiffany.com/. Tiffany is my aunt and a local jewelry artist. We started making photo jewelry together for ourselvesand because we have gotten so many compliments on our own necklaces......I decided to start offering to my clients. Pricing on jewelry will vary based on necklace length and gemstones chosen. The necklaces below are made with blackstone, onyx chips and pewter/silver charms. Photos can be bw or color. Chose your favorite image from your latest session for your original necklace. Then swap your charm out whenever you like with a newer image for a small transfer fee.
Blackstone or Onyx chip as shown below (based on a 16" or smaller strand) - $60
