bella's first day of school

well, i never would've thought that the day would come when all 3 of my kids were in school, granted bell only just started pre-school, but nevertheless...

here are some pictures from her first day...




this one's for my sister...this is the 'power to the people' picture i told her about.
she was showing me her bracelet - but it looks like she raising her fist in angst.
well, there she is - my little preschooler...

i'm back...

hello! sorry it's been so long since i've blogged. so much has been going on...
back to school stuff, work, work and more work...

anyway, i'm back to post some more fun stuff, yea...! (sit back and relax please - it's gonna be a long one.)


so... i last blogged about the shufeldt wedding, which i am now done working on. it will be up on my site in it's own gallery soon. stay tuned for that...

i've done some senior sessions - which were so fun - a few concerts - and another wedding. (as well as some stuff in between.)

the month of august FLEW by...

time to get ready for the oh-so-lovely michigan winter that's just around the corner...boo. :(

so anyway, what i want to share now are some adorable pics of my friend joelle's daughters, sinclair and regan.


i took them to downtown ann arbor and did a session with them for joelle's birthday...remember, my forty year old friend (i say it like that 'cause i know she loves it so much) that i mentioned in one of my previous blogs?

any way, here are a few of my favs:


this was in bubble gum alley...
such characters :)

we went into this little crunchy granola store and the girls were having a ball. it was short lived though because we were asked to leave. they didn't like me using their store as my studio apparently...


seriously, how amazing is she? look at the air that girl got...! (phew...no broken bones :)


love.



love more.


love most.
