Ok I admit I have been MIA lately. But happy to announce some new products available. Head on over to my website and in "the goods" section check stuff out. Next, when I get the chance I will be ordering some samples of other new products to post. I am going to start offering a line of very high quality albums from finao. It is a self mount album with various cover options. The pages are thick and I can custom create each page. Trust me you will love em! I can't t wait to get my hands on mine. Another new fun product is a cute wallet sized booklet. Perfect for purse and gifts for family.

Image for Aug 26 , I had saved my picture taking for the last moment and thought I would just do it after I went to the movie. But when the movie was over it was dark, so lack of any better ideas I twirled around in my car's headlights. The movie I saw was Mama Mia and I loved it! This is my interpretation of "Dancing Queen"

Aug 25 image, I am addicted to running. I put the camera on timer to get this shot.

We are in it now

2008-08-25T10:24:00.005-06:00

We have finally gotten sick of all the weedy grasses and are saying goodbye to the grasshopper farm that is currently our front yard. Here is the before:

And here is where it's at now! So the plan is to plant drought tolerant plantings and a drip irrigation system and some dryland pasture grass on the perimeter. I know, we got a ways to go......

So get a load of this look! Cute legs huh?!

Here's the fella those legs belong to, only with pants on.

This is 'K" and this image has turned into one of my all time favs. I love the eyelashes and the expression. Perfectly lovely.

She's a natural.

2008-08-22T19:19:00.007-06:00

I have decided to do a picture a day for one year and than make a book out of all the images at the end of the year. So this is entry for August 22 2008

Simply Stunning

2008-08-22T06:57:00.003-06:00

That's what I have to say about "H" beautiful inside and out!

Well I have been MIA!

2008-08-21T12:24:00.005-06:00

So, I have been very bad at staying up to date. But I promise I am going to try to stay current. One of the best things about my summer thus far was a wee summer vacation in one of my favorite resorty, touristy type of places- Park City,Utah. I love that place! Lots of fun biking, good food, shopping,free bus service, scenic, I mean what more can a girl ask for I ask! I spent about 1/2 mile riding trying to get this picture, it's not easy riding a bike, and holding a camera let alone actually getting something in focus.

the whole gang!

These last 2 were my other fav's from Park City, Yep, just some foxtail and a dandelion.

Bits and parts

2008-07-06T14:47:00.004-06:00

Well this is what I have accomplished today. Don't know why I am so obsessed with this dog.

Newest Nephew!

2008-07-03T10:46:00.008-06:00

So this little guy was the purpose of my mad dash across the western states. I was trying to arrive before his birth.This is my new nephew. But alas, he had other plans.
I was about 3 hours too late. Isn't he just as cute as they come?!

I got a kick out of this. The name list. I am a creator of lists myself. Hmmm.....perhaps it runs in the family. So this is how the little guy got his name,one by one the names were scratched off.

I had sooo much fun with this guy. He likes his picture being taken I think, he was awake during most of them. He was about 3-4 days old.

I'm keeping my eye on you!

Older brother, who is also photogenic!

Recent road trip

2008-07-02T18:34:00.004-06:00

I recently went on a road trip with a mission. Purpose of mission to be divulged tomorrow. So the gas prices were shocking and bums me out about the number of future road trips I will be making. As usual, a stop at Starbucks keeps me wide awake and ALERT!

Woman with Camera

2008-07-02T17:35:00.014-06:00

I have been seriously been lacking in my blogging duties so the next couple days I am going to try to catch up.
Ok well this is by no means recent work and I wouldn't even call it good. But, this is my friend "T" who I have taken lots of pictures with and well I happen to have a couple of her with her camera.

whoo hoo!

2008-06-03T10:27:00.002-06:00

Big day here Sunday. This is my stepson and his father can't ya tell?!Sooo happy and so proud. I think the new grad is really excited to be moving on to the next phase of his life.

A few from my day

2008-05-11T20:15:00.007-06:00

Happy Mother's day to all. These are some pretty random shots of things I thought needed to be documented.

I made this cake today and Lucy loves cake too. She cannot believe this cake is just sitting there.

These are some poster child candidates for soon to be severely mutilated dog toys. I don't give them 48 hours.

Lucy

2008-05-07T12:30:00.003-06:00

This is Lucy, Isn't she a peach? She doesn't always look so alert and capable unless you have.............food. Yep, at the slightest hint of food she is ready to risk life and limb(or paw)for a search and rescue mission, aid in the detection of nuclear devices, and maybe pose for a picture or two. I love Lucy.

What were you doing at 6:30 am?

2008-04-27T11:56:00.003-06:00

Well, I don't know about you, but I was out with cows this morning! And aren't they grand! More images for a website.

I really like the one below,it's kind of arty,you know all that negative space. Hmm...do you think the words cows and art can go in the same sentence?

I say lets give it up for our bovine brothers and sisters!

Dog nose

2008-04-21T13:20:00.001-06:00

Such a sweet little guy!

2008-04-14T11:18:00.004-06:00

As you can see this guy is as cute as they come. And his parents were great also. A big thank you to them for letting me photograph him.

MooPoo fun

2008-04-11T21:27:00.003-06:00

Ok, I told ya there would be more! I had a really fun day with this super family. They wanted some images of their farm and their incredible compost business. So cows are people too you know. They really get tired of just being in the pastures all the time so I thought I would do Lucy here a favor and take her on a walk.......

And did you know cows had a sweet spot on their "rump"? I sure didn't.

And here's the head farmer and one of his sweet daughters

This is the final product, rows of beautiful, ready for your garden-moo poo!

Track Season!

2008-04-10T08:27:00.004-06:00

Well track season is here and for those of you who don't know, I love track! This is my nephew-doesn't he look fast?!

April Fool's Day!

2008-04-01T14:32:00.011-06:00

Welcome to my new blog! I am sooo excited! I am still working on it so keep checkin back. I am also excited about spring and warmer weather. They say in Montana " If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes!" And it is just too true.
Last weekend I had a great time shooting a family session at a local diary farm. We had great time. Look for some more shots from this same locale next month.

I think this little "M" is so darn cute!

I like messin with textures on images and it really fits this day.

Oh, and this is Andy AFTER he rolled in something only a dog would love. I love it!
