Guess Who's Back?!?

Yes boys & girls, I am finally back! Well, mostly anyway.  :)   There has been a ton of stuff going on these last several months, and I am finally getting everything squared away. I still don't have my home office unpacked or set up yet, but I am functioning. LOL. Here are some updates on what's new...

* I am on hiatus from OpLove sessions, and only accepting inquiries from previous/current clients. 
* I am in the middle of switching to a new proofing software. The current software will be eliminated on March 30, 2013. More details on the new system once I get it figured out.
* I am considering getting rid of my current business website and using this blog, with modifications, as my primary site. I'll keep you updated.
* New Business Addition coming soon - Pet Photography!
* Anyone in or know some around the Junction City, Kansas area? One of my friends, Trey Allen, was recently diagnosed with Mutiple Myeloma (cancer of the blood cells). They are having a Benefit Ranch Rodeo, Calf Fry, and Silent Auction on May 26th. If you can attend, donate, or even help spread the word...any & all help is greatly appreciated! I am trying to arrange my schedule to attend also. More info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/151051648392171/

* And on a personal note, I am now a Grandma and a once-again Aunt. My granddaughter, Allyson Lynn, was born Dec 3, 2012. My nephew, Eli James, was born on my sister's birthday, March 7, 2013. Here are a few pics of my new sweeties!

I am sure there are a boatload of other notifications and updates that I need to post, but that's all I have for now. Thanks for staying true & hanging in there with me. TTYS!

Addy Turns 1-yr old!

I first met little Addyson and her parents, Jamie & Sean, about a year ago when I did their newborn session. Then in November, I did Addy's 6-month old / Christmas session. I recently got to see her again for her one-year old  / Easter session. OMG...she has grown so much, and she is on the move now! She laughed, ran around, played with sticks, and stuck Easter eggs in her mouth. She is absolutely adorable! And as before, Jamie and Sean are very adoring, proud, and loving parents. The first photos below are from our previous sessions: on the left is her newborn pics and on the right is her 6-month pics. The rest below are from our recent session.
