M.I.A.

Wow.....I have been a bad blogger! (don't nod your head JoAnn!)

I have had a series of computer related issues over the past few

weeks & didn't realize just how much I rely on it, until it was gone!

There is a fake virus alert that pops up on your screen that looks

as if your virus protection has detected an issue. It asks you to

click on the box to remove this issue and when you do, it acutally

loads the virus on your computer. My daughter did this TWICE!

I was panicked to say the least...my internet wouldn't stay open,

my other programs would not open at all..... I was able to locate

the virus on my C drive, but it would not allow me to delete it.

I did have Norton 360, but this virus bypassed it!

Finally, I was able to go to Microsoft.com & searched security essentials.

I then ran a PC Safety Scan on the computer & it cleaned my drive &

allowed me to delete the virus folder & contents....WHEW!

Anywhoo - go to Microsoft now and run a PC Safety Scan NOW!

I also had a Shoot and Shop with a local Photography group I belong to,

called the XStop Project. We had four backdrops & each of us were

assigned to a model to work with. It gave us all an opportunity to

watch one another in action & learn lighting techniques.

This was the little cutie I had to work with:

Hot Mama! :)

Sorry, this will be hard for some prego Mama's

to see........Christina, do you know how many

prego mama's would LOVE to look like this?

Geez-louise...... beautiful girly! :)

So trendy & cute too with her hubby....

I love the photoshop action I used on this one.....

your little family "pile"

Jeremy & Christina, thanks for having me

take your belly bump pics, you two were

so fun! I can't wait to meet baby Diego! :)

Oh my.....what a sweetie!

What a sweet little "Angel..." hehehe,

which happens to be her Mama's name :)

*

Little "A" was so observant when she came

for her session(s)! We tried to wear her

down a bit, but she won..the first round....

Hi, I'm still awake! :)

Finally....... :)

Matt & Angel.....thanks so much for letting me

capture your precious baby girl......

Alex: Senior 2010!

I had an awesome time with Alex

running around to catch his pics.

Loved his great attitude & willingness

to climb snow hills or walk through mud-

slides so that we could get to some of these

locations :)

Alex, thanks for having FUN during your

session! Your smile is contagious, keep on sharing it!

Mom & Kelsie, you girls were fabulous too!

Meet Little "N"

This is the second time I have been able

to photograph little "N." I am amazed

how much he has grown in front of

my lens :) His little personality

is starting to shine and he is very

observant....... :)

This one is for Dad.....

starting to notice his feet.....

likes my hat.....

Meet Miss Kelsey!

Miss Kelsey was so much fun to photograph!

We actually drove around the block 800 times

to find some of our locations... hehe! :)

The ice festival was being held downtown

and parking was limited!

*

Anywhoo, Kayla, look at these pics!!

I know was telling you while I was

taking them that you looked beautiful,

but now you can see for yourself!

*

f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s!

Flying by the seat of my pants....literally!

This is going to be short & sweet! I have a flight in 2.5 hrs

and I am sitting here in my pj's! Time has just gotten

away from me, even though I have been running on

2-5 hrs of sleep or LESS since Xmas!

*

I am posting some recent sessions I have had and

would normally not post them together, but time

is of the essence today!

*

I have to run now, as my hubby is pacing like a nervous wreck!

(you'd think he was trying to catch a plane!)

I will post about my trip when I get back &

have a few more sessions to post too.
