Fall spectaular

Since it is such beautiful weather outside, I am running two fall spectaculars.

1. a Mini Session: $75 30 minutes includes: 10 high resolution images on a cd (freedom of printing) 2. a Regular portrait session:$150 1-2 hrs includes: high resolution cd of images (freedom of printing) 5x7 book of images bonus: 1- 10x10 image on canvas If you are interested in getting a portrait session with me, please contact me to schedule. I will be in the New Orleans area on the weekend of October 24. If you are in Texas, I am available Halloween weekend and the 21st of November.   This would be a great time to get those long awaited family portraits done or take Christmas pictures. I also photograph newborns and children.

CS4 seminar

Monday I will be attending a CS4 workshop in Austin and I am so excited I can't speak! Granted I am still working off of CS2, but I plan on getting the new upgrade VERY soon. My co-worker, and a friend of mine will be making that back-roads trip to Austin on Monday, and it will be an all day event. We will going to classes on all of the applications included in the creative suite! So, hopefully I can take a turn for the better on some of my photo editing.

FYI.....
I will be having some holiday specials coming up soon! be sure to let me know if you would like fall/holiday picutres taken.

my new favorite blog

I can not explain how much I love this blog called "bakerella". My co-worker Heather told me about it and now I am hooked. she makes AMAZING cakes and anything you can bake and tells you how to make it yourself. LOVE IT! One post that I was reading she made a"Doberge" cake. I sooo miss my Doberge cakes from New Orleans and I was just talking about making one, when I saw her post. I want to attempt to make this cake and lots of other items on her menu. So be on the lookout for more food and recipe related posts.

she also made some some cake pops that I am going to attempt to make. Here's how cute they look.

Now if I can only get my kitchenaid mixer, life would be so much easier to bake. (giggling) My poor Hubby, I get to bake for fun and he has to eat all the goodies after I am done.

The Funky Cheveux

Friday I took photos for my new hair salon the "Funky Cheveux". These ladies are soo fun and I had a great time shooting their new pictures for their studio and website. Priscilla is the owner (she did my new hair) and she was such a blast to work with! here is a sneak peak at a few of the pictures!

A sew sew day

Here are some pictures from my sew sew wknd. I hit the floor running this wknd with all of my sewing projects I had lined up for myself. First I embellished a plain pink t-shirt with some fun ribbon. I had never tried this before and I think it came out very good. I will be giving this to my niece for her birthday in a few wks. She had asked me to sew her something the other week, (I don't know who she thinks i am, Martha Stewart?) so I had been wanting to make this for a while, and I decided to make it for her. Next I had been wanting to make an apron that would be cute for dinner parties, and not necessarily for keeping grease off of you when cooking. I added some netting underneath to make it poofy! well, its not really poofy, b/c the fabric is pretty heavy, but I think it turned out pretty well. Lastly I made a cute burp cloth, I had seen this and thought I could make it myself, and viola,I did. So enjoy my sew sew creations below and let me know what y'all think!!!!

LIttle Henry

Here are some pictures from this past friday. At my office there are to be seven, thats right seven, new babies this year. This is the first one that I have gotten to photograph. Little Henry. He was the most patient and well mannered baby I think i have photographed. He slept through most of it and hardly ever fussed. Here is just a sneak peak of more to come. Enjoy!
