Old Mill + Ice Cream= Very Cold

When Staci wanted to go to this old mill I kept telling her is was going to be really cold. There are so busted out walls, no heat, broken windows, etc. She kept telling me she didn't care, she wanted to go. And she didn't care. Not one complaint. And it even started snowing! We had a great time getting some really wonderful images. Staci was like wonder woman. I had her standing in the wind and snow and she totally went with it.

Staci brought her Grandmother's red coat just to keep warm between shots. When she put it on I was in love with it. I love the look of it in so many of the images!

Check out what great fun we had. And thanks so much to her mom for keeping things light and happy!

Christmas + Workshop=Perfect Christmas Gift

For the photography lover in your life!

I am hosting a workshop at my brand new studio in January! This workshop is for anyone who loves photography and wants to know what the next step is. Be prepared to get into new creative places no matter what your skill level. We will take a look at some of the masters of photography, I will share the ways I get inspired before a shoot, and you will start to see light, shadows, angles, and emotion in new ways. You'll need to bring your cameras because this is all about the hands on process of photography. We will have a photo shoot, critique and a lot of fun. You can't miss this!

The workshop will be held on January 27th, 2007 from 10am-6pm and includes an entire day of eating, drinking, and living photography, lunch at the delicious Rooster's on Historic 25th Street, and a new perspective.

Register quickly there are only 10 spaces available.

Complete workshop fee $500.

Making Cookies

Annie and Katie's little family is so sweet! They made cookies with their dad...which I have to say were totally delicious! They danced with their mom, jumped on the bed and off of tables, and had lunch. We saw elves and ducks and went Christmas shopping for favorite toys. I was so impressed with how good and kind they are to each other. You can tell that there are a lot of wonderful things going on in their home and little family just by being with them for a few hours!

Side note: For anyone feeling like they are drowning under a sea of chaos make sure to get in touch with Amanda (Annie and Katie's mom.) She is helping me to get organized for my big surprise unveiling at the beginning of the year. She has been a lifesaver and so full of wonderful ideas. You need her if you want to get organized or you want decorating help! Call me and I'll get you in touch with her.

Check out the fun we had!

Disneyland!

Staci works for Disney in Imagineering...which means she is one of the designers that designs the rides and all of that fun stuff for Disneyland. Her project when she was an intern was Goofy's House. We went and took pictures there and I was amazed. She is incredibly talented. Chad is a swim coach and goes every morning super early to coach and then comes to Staci's apartment to make her breakfast. Yes, he really did make the crepes and they were delicious! He let me try making one and it wasn't nearly as pretty as the ones he was making.

After breakfast we were off to Disneyland. We rode a whole bunch of rides, laughed alot, and had lunch. What a fun day! And what a fun job I have. I had such a great time with you, Staci and Chad! Thanks!
