I received an email last night from a company that publishes online travel guides for various cities and destinations around the world. This message informed me that my photo had been selected as a finalist for their Key West guide! If it is chosen for their publication, it will be seen by many people across the nation and around the world, with credit being given to me as the photographer. What an honor! This is very exciting news! I was able to accept or decline this opportunity. Of course, I happily (and eagerly) accepted!!! I’ll keep you posted as I learn more.

Exciting News!

I thought I would share some recent photos of dear Lola while I’m working on some other posts which will be coming soon! Lola, thank you for being patient for so long! I know 5 minutes can seem like an eternity, especially when you’re this beautiful and have a million things to do.

I think she would like this one, since it makes her seem a little taller.

Lola “requested” a photo with some dramatic sidelighting.

Lola, thanks again for working it out for the camera! šŸ˜‰

Southern Florida & Key West

My husband and I are so blessed to have such a loving family both near and far. We spent time with my family before Christmas and enjoyed a delicious dinner, tons of laughs, cookies and pies, oh my! Then it was time to fly off to southern Florida to visit Reggie’s Mom as we do each year between Christmas and New Years. Her gift to us is a trip to Key West to visit my Uncle Mark, who helps run a thriving scooter, bicycle and electric car rental business on the 7 mile island. Of course I had to take my camera with me! There were so many fantastic photo opportunities in Florida, it was hard to put the camera down. Reggie also took some photos of his own. Here we go in no particular order. Maybe I will update the captions at some point, but for right now, please feel free to just enjoy the scenery. Sit back, relax and pretend you are there…I will be doing the same thing!

Thank you for watching!

I *heart* Florida! 2008

Merry Christmas to you! I have enjoyed this fantastic journey so far the past few months, and I’m excited for what is ahead. I’m continuing to practice, to grow and to learn, and I’m never bored! Thank you to my husband Reggie for your constant faith and positive outlook. Thank you to my family and friends for your love and support. And thank you to all of my clients for making my job so enjoyable and fun! I am so lucky and truly thankful to love what I do.

Tons of new ideas and exciting offerings are coming in 2009! Until then, here are some holiday photos that I would like to share. My husband has a very nice collection of nutcrackers. I love all of their unique expressions and craftsmanship. They were so kind to allow me to photograph them one afternoon!

Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! Joyeux Noel! Feliz Navidad!

Wishing you a magical Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all!

Thank you to everyone who made my first portrait party a huge success! What a fun day!

A big thank you to Mama Carolla’s Old Italian Restaurant! Your hospitality and kindness are greatly appreciated, and I cannot thank you enough. I tried to capture the perfectly charming, cozy atmosphere so full of character, not to mention the delicious smells of garlic and freshly baked bread wafting throughout the restaurant. My husband and I look forward to dining there soon. I’m especially excited about dessert…tiramisu is my favorite! Grazie!

Thank you to my husband Reggie for all of his help and encouragement. He brought lunch and spare bulbs for my lights! Thank you so much, Reggie!

And thank you to my lovely assistants, Audrey and Ashley. Your friendship means the world to me. I really appreciate all of your help in making this a fun and successful day.

I must also say thank you to the families and friends who ventured out into the dreary, rainy day to spend some time with me. I can’t wait to show you the rest of your photos! Thank you for making my day such a fun, exciting time – you are all truly blessed with adorable, loving families! And I’m honored to have shared this time with you.

Please check out all the photos from this unique event!
