Taking a Break

Hello dear readers!  Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be taking a break from the blog while I gear up for and attend my church's world conference!  I'm hoping to have great photo opps while I'm there, so there will be plenty of new material for the blog when I get back!  Wishing everyone a wonderful week!

Garden Days


I love spring!  Ok honestly I love all seasons... but spring always bring such freshness and colour!  This photo was taken in our garden last year.  The birdbath was a gift from my aunt and uncle awhile ago and it tends to migrate through the yard from year to year depending on what dad's decided to do that year.  He's so great with gardening and landscaping, so the yard always looks stellar!  I'm really looking forward to seeing what he does this year :o)  And to starting our vegetable garden!

Boo Radley's Apple Tree


I love apples.  Especially McIntosh apples.  These apples are not McIntosh apples, but they are happy and bright looking apples so I'm sharing them with you all!  I took this photo in Dearborn at the end of last summer while I was shooting an event for a client... who says I can't build my portfolio, my blog and my business all at once?  :o)

Greasy Webs

Spiderwebs are super cool, and can be very tricky to capture in a photo.  This particular one looked as though it had been sprayed with a very fine mist of grease and then coated in dust... or something.  It looked sooo funky I just had to hang out for awhile and shoot until I came up with this shot.  It was taken in Redford at one of Austin's gigs last summer.

Wedding Venue Sneak Peek


  This is where Austin and I will be getting married in September (without the garbage can chillin' stage left...)  It may not be the most impressive work of photography, but it was the best church photo I could dig up for a Good Friday shot to share with you... since I'm sick in bed and can't go digging in my office to find some of my older work.  I'm excited about the wedding and this building is so beautiful, so I'm glad we were able to settle on it for the ceremony.  Anyway, here's your sneak peek on that :o)  Wishing you all a lovely Easter Weekend, stay tuned!

April Showers

This photo was taken on Mackinac Island last spring.  It was FREEZING on the island that weekend but I still managed to get some nice springy shots like this one.  All the rain made for some vibrant colours and fun water droplets on the flowers.  I may be sick in bed today, but still looking forward to the patterns of spring emerging!
