101 List Update
Posted on October 6, 2008
I thought it was time to give you all a little update on my 101 list. Within the last couple of months, I have actually completed several goals…
7. buy a polaroid or two before it’s too late
I was fortunate enough that I didn’t even have to buy one…a friend came across one that wasn’t being used and thought I might like to have it. He was right!
20. get another tattoo
For my birthday in July, Donny and I got complimenting tattoos that say “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine (Ani L’Dodi, v’Dodi Li )” in Hebrew from Song of Solomon 6:3. Mine says “I am my beloved’s” and Donny’s says “and my beloved is mine”. We are very happy with the way they turned out :)
28. shoot a “Trash the Dress” session
I bet you would like to know how she trashed her dress, huh? We just shot this Trash the Dress Session last Sunday and I cannot wait to blog the rest!!
57. go parasailing
Donny and I got to go parasailing at Mackinac Island in August and we had a blast! We had the most perfect day for it as you can see.
91. have blog readers from all over the world
All of the countries that are colored in light or dark green represent the percentage of blog readers from that country. Obviously I have way more readers in North America than anywhere else, but it is still so cool to know that someone in Lithuania has seen my blog!

Fall has arrived!
Posted on October 1, 2008
Today is October 1st and I’m so excited it is starting to look and feel like Fall. I LOVE Fall, but I have a hard time convincing myself it is Fall until October. I know the first official day of Fall is in September, but to me, it doesn’t start until October. I know I’m weird!
Opie was out playing in the leaves yesterday and I couldn’t resist plopping him down by the pumpkin…
Isn’t he just the cutest dog EVER?!?
I apologize that I am WAY behind on blogging actual client work. Lately all of my time has been taken up with shooting and now I have [what seems like at this point] a never-ending lineup of editing ahead of me. I have a few weddings, a few boudoir sessions, a few senior sessions, and some personal stuff to get up. I hope to get a little bit ahead before the shooting madness begins again on Saturday. We’ll see! I promise I’m working as fast as I can!
At least I have the beautiful weather to help keep me sane:) Happy Fall!

News…
Posted on September 19, 2008
I am still without power!! It is quite annoying, but at the same time, it is not that bad. We are so thankful that living without electricity for a week is our biggest issue…the poor people in Texas are dealing with MUCH worse. Most of our friends and family have power, so we’ve been going to different people’s houses every night to hang out & eat dinner. Since Sunday, all we do at home is sleep and shower (we still do have hot water - thankfully!). Yesterday morning I was driving across the Queen City viaduct and was getting very frustrated! I was stuck in some major traffic which normally wouldn’t bother me much, but I think I was letting the whole no electricity situation get to me. And then I looked up and saw this…
…and everything was better! Such a simple statement that means so much. My friends and I are pretty sure whoever was driving that car attends the Vineyard Westside (which is where we have been going to church lately) because that is their slogan/motto or whatever you want to call it.
In other news…I wanted to remind everyone that the wedding promotion is ending in 11 days!! Many of you have taken adavantage and received 10% off of your 2009 wedding package…but for those of you who are not early planners…you better hurry!
One more thing…OCTOBER IS BOOKED!! For those of you wanting to get your engagement (or other) sessions in this Fall, you better schedule your session for November before that fills up. I only have a few available dates left in November.

Zoom Zoom
Posted on September 6, 2008
After renting this bad boy several times, we finally decided that this lens is a must have. Donny absolutely LOVES shooting with it…me not so much. It is too big and heavy for me and I tend to prefer to shoot with prime lenses. Lucky for us we’ll now get the best of both worlds! Presenting, in all its glory, our brand spankin’ new Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM Telephoto Zoom Lens!!
