Patty

Just when I thought I was done shooting for Christmas I had one more pop up...lol. Patty's mom came in for maternity photos and asked if Patty can get some holiday photos. As cute as she was, how could I resist?

Random middle of the night rants...lol.

OK, maybe 1 rant and a recomendation...lol.

RANT - My darling husband calls me from the mall tonight. He was there to purchase my Christmas gift. WELL my heart sank out of my body when he said that the unnatural love affair I've been having with iphone will have to stay in my head. It turns out that AT&T won't allow business accounts to have one of those hot little gadgets. Can we please have a moment of silence for my shattered dream.....

(sniff sniff)

Now on to my recomendation. I just watched the movie Apocalypto. It was really an excellent movie. Even though it was all in Mayan and had subtitiles it was an awesome awesome movie!! Definately two thumbs up and a snaps in the "Z" formation.

New Look

Well I've put up the new website for 2008. I know there are still bugs to work out, but mostly everything should be working fairly well. Please go over, take a look, and let me know what you think about it!

Holiday Movie (movie has been deleted)

OK, I previously posted that I was shutting down my website until 1/2/08 to update, and in it's place I put up a holiday flash movie for your enjoyment. WELL, I've gotten loads of emails saying that it loaded very slow. So to stop the agony...lol. I took it down and put the site back up. If you want to view the movie follow the link below, and have patience...lol.

WEBSITE UPDATES

OK, if you have gone to my site in the last 3hrs you may have noticed that it really isn't there. It has to be rebuilt, and I didn't want to leave it blank with a generic message. SO....

As a treat I put up a nice holiday flash show. Please let me know what you think. THank you for sticking around for a great year. I can't wait to see what 2008 has in store for us.

Showcase

Oh!! I almost forgot to tell you....

A few months back I mentioned that I was going to be showcasing my work in the Woodbridge Library. Well, my display is up and running. If you are in the Woodbridge, NJ area go to the lower level of the Woodbridge Library and check it out.

I have to attempt to get some holiday shopping done today so if I'm in that area of town I'll try to stop by and take some photos of the display for the non-local people reading my blog.

This has been a wonderful year, thanks for your support!!

Holiday Sibling Photo

Hey Guys,


As you can guess I'm jumping with holiday orders, and I'm not complaining one bit...lol. We are in the home stretch now. I can't believe that Christmas is only 2 weeks away!! There is so much I still haven't done.

1) put my tree up

2) take AJ's holiday photos

3) SHOPPING


I guess I'll be super busy this weekend and next week...lol. Here is one photo from one of my latest shoots. Families are great because they suck you in with their fun spirits and playful ways. These three sibs were a lot of fun to photograph.

I've touched on this before, but if you missed that post here's a quick recap. My husband has written a book and has evolved into a motivational speaker. His message is possitive and inspiring. Being that he can work my nerves like no one else can, I'm really not biased...lol.


Last week he had his first tv interview. Watching the whole process was very fun. I was able to get a few shots of them chatting, so I thought I'd post two.


If you haven't already, please go to my husband's website and see what he's about. Feel free to email him too.

H. S. Reed, Jr & Craig Coughlin - host of "About the Town" (CH. 35; Wdbg, NJ)

One of my most favorite families!!

Today I shot for Sharon, Ernie, and Ernie's sister Andrea. This family is absolutely fantastic. Sharon and Ernie was the first wedding I shot and we have been friends ever since. First, I went down to there home to shoot Miss Gracie's holiday pictures and their family photo. Next, I went over to Andrea's house (Ernie's sister) and photographed her family. THEN... Sharon, Ernie, and Gracie came over and I took one big group photo. Here are a few of the children. They were a handful, but they were so much fun to watch and interact with.

Let me know what you think!!
