Big Changes

I realize it has been an eternity since my last post! I'm now fully recovered from a long stretch of bronchitis! In the midst of being sick, Paul and I are also smack dab in the middle of...

MOVING IN TO OUR FIRST HOME! That's right, Paul and I bought our first home a couple weeks ago and are now in the moving-in process. It's going to be so adorable when all the touching up is done... AND I'll have my own office!

Anyways, I'll post photos in the near future.

In other exciting news (At least to my husband), we'll be adopting!... a Baby Kitten! Guess what, we're adopting a baby kitten! ... I smile as Paul keeps reminding me each day. I think he's more excited than I am!

I had 3 wonderful shoots last weekend and I will post some photos tomorrow. I have 3 more this week too! So things are really busy around here.

I hope everyone is enjoying this change in weather as much as I am! Just hope it doesn't snow again. You never know around here.

Well, much love to all. Enjoy this beautiful day!

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

Claire

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!
