I've gotta be really honest with you. I haven't wanted to say much lately online. I mean, yes, I have been helping my friend with her Twitter contest and I've been doing some Facebook and whatnot daily....but not my usual banter. The things I want to talk about hurt too much. The tragic fire in which I lost my friends has really been hard to deal with for so, so many.
But I know that my friend, Bobbi, would be so very, very happy for me that people are hearing more about me. The pictures I had taken of her and her daughters have become a bit "famous" in our town. People saw that I captured Bobbi's essence. And they liked that. I've been getting calls and emails for photo shoots to capture others' essences, too. Bobbi would be thrilled that more people were keeping it local, finding out about me, choosing me.
I think about Bobbi, Abby & Savannah every day. I miss them all terribly and cannot wait until I can hold them all in my arms again.

You know what? I have the best customers. I really do. They are all so willing to get a bit uncomfortable to get some fun pictures. Either when it's -30 or, like with this family, 102! YES! We were outside in a gorgeous field of wild flowers and it was over 100 degrees out. Ridiculous, and yet, TOTALLY worth it!

Know something else? I dig snuggly, cuddly, lovey familes. Well, snuggly, cuddly, lovey people in general. But really, seeing that in a family is kinda rare at times! But just look at Mom & Dad snuggling and joking with each other! See Lexi & Kelsey playing guitar? Jonathan and Dad playing football. Mom & Keshia having a moment? I love this! LOVE IT! They even asked if they could just have moments together and I'd photograph them. Um, YES, PLEASE! That's what I LOVE!
