More from the workshop..

I mentioned in an earlier post that I went to a workshop recently & I wanted to elaborate a little more on that.... The workshop was hosted by Chicago Children's photographer, Audrey Woulard. If you are not familiar with her name, you may recall having seen her work in Pottery Barn Kid's. I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to work with such a fantastic photographer.

The workshop was awesome & I feel that I walked away with a fresh outlook on what lies ahead for my business. In addition, I met 20 phenomenol photographer's from all over the US, who were very generous in sharing their knowledge with one another.

Audrey had several models available for us to photograph indoor's and outdoor's, while she taught us her techniques, tips & tricks :) Thanks to all of our little models and families for letting us run around like paparazzi for the day. And of course, thanks to Mrs. Audrey!

And now, the models.....

S-u-p-e-r Adison?

My four year old son, Adison, loves to pretend he is SuperMan. He has been known to jump off of anything to prove his flying abilities. As a matter of fact, when he was 3 years old, he had his costume & on he jumped from the couch to the chair...unfortunately, he missed and broke his leg! He claims that the only reason that happened was because he forgot to put his cape on!

Do or Die 365!

I just returned from an awesome photo workshop this past weekend...
& I am truly inspired! I learned so much and met 20 fabulous

photographers who all share the same passion as I do....

Fast food! Kidding! Photography, of course :)

Anywhoo- I have decided to challenge myself. My goal is to be at the next

level of my business by this time next year. To reach this goal, I will take a

photo every single day for the next year....and post it....yikes...

.I know this is a lot & I hope Simon Cowell understands if I have

to cut Idol short in order to meet this goal.

Please check in often and take this journey with me as I grow.....
Comments are welcomed, nice ones especially!

The below pic is of a barn that I pass occaisionally on my route to work.

It is right in the middle of several businesses & although it seems that it

would be completely out of place, it's not. It is the memory of what

used to be before the land was taken over all around it.

This one stood it's ground!

The first one has a little photoshop touch...

the second is pretty funky, but I love it!

Tell me what you think!

Now everbody do the barnyard dance!

Girl's just wanna have fun!

My nieces stopped over for some fun with my daughters :)

PJ Party

Grandma had a great idea to have a PJ party for her Grandkids!

I had fun capturing each of them, especially little "B,"

my challenge for the day :)

"A" could not wait to get dressed as a fairy-princess!

She just knew the outfit was made for her,

I think I could agree with that! :)

Introducing Sweet Baby "G"....

What a good time I had meeting Little Miss "G!" She was a perfect Angel :)

Thanks for bringing her Kara, she is so beautiful!

I could have taken a million more pics....
