Ever since starting this little photo-taking endeavor, I’ve said that I’d be terrified to take wedding photos. I’d only get one shot to get it right, and if I didn’t, the moment was lost. Engagement photos can be re-staged, babies can be re-positioned, but that “I do” moment can’t be re-done. When one of my [...]

No, I’m not announcing anything. But, I spent a great weekend away with a group of girlfriends and took a boatload of photos. Back in April, I had a couple of photo shoots with a couple of the same people, one of which was a maternity shoot. Well, as it tends to happen, Melissa had [...]

We all know how this is really going to go. I can never keep my mouth shut, hence the lack of “Wordless” anywhere in the title. I arrived home yesterday to Adam cooking dinner. The next thing I knew, this plate was being presented to me. Chicken picatta from this Giada recipe, roasted green beans, [...]

She goes all-out, filling her friends with the warmth of delicious food, good wine, and the unmistakable feeling of friendship. This year was no exception, and we spent a good portion of the night discussing how 2012 [...]

A few times now though, people have trusted me to take photos of themselves or their families for specific events. Christina’s engagement photos, [...]

I toyed for about five minutes with calling this post “Five Photo Fingernail Friday” but I thought that might be a tad annoying. As promised, today is Fingernail Friday in which I indulge you all in photos of my latest addiction (which conveniently helps me from snacking when bored!). First, a student-requested cupcake manicure which [...]

Well, I survived! 10 weeks of camp, dozens of kids, endless sunshine and fun… And I. Am. Exhausted. But one thing after a long last day made me incredibly happy. See, we’ve been watching my mom and stepdad’s goldendoodle, Stella, for the last week. That means 3 happy dog faces when I get home!! I [...]

I truly cannot believe that it’s been almost 10 weeks of summer already. Camp ends on Friday, and school stuff starts again on Tuesday. It’s been a long and busy summer, as many of you can tell by my general lack of posting! I’ll be back in the kitchen more soon (which my waistline will [...]

Note to self: When “free kids day” at the zoo happens, it is not a good idea to bring a group of campers there. Another note to self: Sometime in the future when I have a child to push around in a stroller, do not ram into groups of campers because my stroller is so [...]
