{ MICHELLE KANE WORKSHOP }

My friend Michelle Kane is putting on a fantastic workshop in June! Her work is some of the very best out there. Her use of color and her editing is simply brilliant and she is going to be showing you how she gets her amazing look!! If you go to Michelle's blog, you can read all the details about what she is offering. But best of all you can see so many wonderful before and after shots of her work. It will really give you a sense of where you can take a picture that comes strait out of the camera. Don't miss out, she is only taking on and teaching 12 photographers!!

{ MY ANGEL }

How can you describe the sweetness of a little girl? There really aren't the right words. Although my baby girl is growing up much faster than I would like, I have been enjoying her every step of the way. Her favorite thing to do right now is crawl up in my lap and read books with me. She has memorized all of the nursery rhymes, so usually she does most of the reading to me! It won't be long before she has out grown that, so I am trying to soak it all in and enjoy it while I can. Don't get me wrong she has plenty of spunk and sass, and we have our moments. But there is just something about her, something that makes my life a whole lot better, a whole lot happier. She really is my angel.
























Yep......She really is my angel.....

{ JESSICA & THOMAS ENGAGEMENTS }

I don't think I have met a happier couple than Jessica and Thomas! Seriously they were smiling, giggling, and laughing the entire session. It was so fun and they were totally up for anything. Jessica's bridal session is right around the corner, so stay tuned for that. I can never decide between rich colors or vintage when it comes to editing, so these photographs are very "eclectic"!

{ PHOTO EXCHANGE }

Feeling blue? Uninspired? Creative juices drying up? Try a photo exchange to re-charge your batteries! If you are wondering what a photo exchange is and how you can get in on one, hop on over to Michelle Kane's hot fresh blog to learn all about it!! And check out her unbelievable and inspiring portfolio while your at it. Trust me....you'll be hooked!

It's really eye opening to see how another artist will interpret your SOOC (strait out of camera) photograph, and to see what spin they will put on it. Not only is the photo exchange challenging and super fun but it's a great way to make a new friend in the industry! My photo exchange has taken place with the uber talented and lovely Jessica Coronado of Bella Rose Photography. Her colors, clarity, and style are incredible. I have been admiring her from the sidelines for a while now! Not only is she talented, she is very sweet and personable too!!
