Blogger Photos?!

****When I upload my photos to blogger, it makes them a little desaturated (makes the images less colorful). Does anyone know how to fix this issue?****


THANKS

Jamie

Jamie came to America on the 4th of July quite a few years ago. Leaving Australia, she and her family embarked on a journey that would change their lives forever. Jamie made friends very quickly... Thanks to her rad personality and cool accent! About a year or so ago, she and her family moved back to Australia. Jamie is now out on her own completing her nursing degree... and she decided to come back to Kansas City for a visit that is all too short! Jamie, it has been so good to see you again and I hope the doors open for you to come back to the states very soon! We love you!

We went to historic downtown Lee's Summit for a few quick shots. Little did we know, the weather was going to take some drastic turns from the lovely 75 and sunny we had just a couple days previously. We also had no idea that there would suddenly be a large group of girl scouts, green-clad marching bands, and John Deer tractors seemingly chasing us down Main St. We ended up taking the back ally ways in 30degree weather! Thanks for being so tough, Jamie!

Here are some of my favorite shots ... Check out her stunning eyes!!!









LOVE this shot...



Thanks Jamie for being such a great sport on a cold and crazy day! I love you!

So far I have 9 Weddings booked for this year... 1 more, and I'll be at my goal of 10 Weddings!

I'll also be shooting with Marco and Jan Simonelli of Photomomentos in Lee's Summit for a couple weddings, Aaron of Heather Cole Photography, and Josh Solar of Solar Photo!

I'm so excited about getting to work with these amazing photographers! I met with Jan and Marco a few nights ago and they were so open and friendly! I felt a connection right away.

My first wedding of the year is coming up in just a few weeks in Dallas! So stay tuned for some "best of" photos from that.

If you are a senior, or know a high school senior, I'm accepting bookings for senior photos for 08' and '09! We've got some really cool products to go along with that this year too! Stay tuned for more info on that as well.

Paul and I just celebrated our 9 months of wedded bliss on Sunday! We are more in love than ever! sigh.

Anyways, hope everyone has a great week. Things are sort of slow right now because of the weather... but as things start warming up, you can expect to see a lot more (interesting) blogs!

A Thing or 2

Early this morning, Paul woke me up with a gentle kiss to say goodbye before he left for work... my eyes wouldn't open very much for me yet, but as he bent down to kiss me, I held him tightly and we said, "have the best day ever!" He tucked me in and I watched him tip toe out in his shirt and tie and I let out a sigh.. I love you paulie..

for some reason, the clock in our bedroom is 3 hours and 38 minutes fast. It has been like that since the power went out about 2 months ago. We just got used to it and now I hardly even notice it anymore. Sometimes, when it is 12:00am, I'll say "Paul, its only a quarter till 9! We've got the whole night ahead of us!" He just laughs and rolls his eyes at me.

So I've been doing this 'photography thing' for almost 8 months now. I LOVE it. I feel so lucky... blessed that I get to be a part of the most special day of 2 people's lives - their wedding day. Before I was a wedding photographer, I was a bride... So I know how important finding the "perfect" photographer is... and I hope I can be that "perfect" photographer for many more brides to come!

Paul and I will be leaving town for a few days this weekend. It will be sooo nice to just be with the one I love... the one whose kisses in the morning make me forget how cold it is outside.

I love you Paul!
