My Life and a fun Engagement Shoot with Beau, Colleen and Barry

I hope that everyone had a relaxing Memorial Day weekend!! My sister flew back from GA and taught my 3yr old nephew how to salute and thank the soldiers as they passed them in the airport!! I wish I was there to have seen it and thanked them myself for serving and protecting our country. I normally do not post personal things on the blog but here I go.... Since Mother's day, my mom had been in the hospital and found out she was going to need double bypass surgery. Shortly after that her husband landed in the hospital with pneumonia... needless to say my life has been shy from crazy shooting, editing and traveling to take care of my parents. So I just wanted to thank everyone for being so patient, caring and understanding during this difficult time in my life. Things are on the up side and my life is returning to normal...phew well, as normal as normal is for me, lol... OK, so here are some fun shots I had promised of Beau the amazing wonder dog, lol and Colleen and Barry the beachy cool couple ;) Enjoy and don't forget to tell your parents you love them ;)

Melissa and George Downtown Engagement Shoot

I had the most amazing time hanging out with Melissa and George on their engagement shoot. I seriously can not wait to shoot their wedding!!! These guys are not only super sweet but crazy in love.

I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone for their patience as many of you know my mom had to have double bypass surgery and life has been short of hectic... I thank those of you who have sent your best wishes and prayers, it has meant a lot during this difficult time. She is on the road to recovery and my sister and I will be headed there next week to give her the TLC she much needs...

Enjoy these guys as I am sure they will make you

Heart of Lightning

I wanted to share a very cool shot of the night sky. My sister and I were being rebellious as we sat outside under the clouds of a lightning storm. I with my camera , my lightning rod, lol and my sister chanting to the storm to stay far ,far away... the wind was kickin and the air was cool, the crackling and booming were enough to make the hairs on my arms rise... I managed to catch this very cool image of what looks like a heart of clouds with lightning within the cloud.
