I am working on 2 things right now. First is my 2011 pricing. Their is 38 requests in the 2011 folder! It will be first response, first served once the pricing is released. I am hoping the couples applying for the positions as my clients for 2011 will tell me a bit about why they want me as their wedding photographer and a bit about the wedding in the initial email. It will help me get to know you better in the short span of an email! Sorry for the delay on releasing the prices. I promised by March 31st, but life got in the way! I will do my best to get them out to you all by this Friday!

In the meantime, my second project right now is that I am still going through and mailing out discs to people who requested them while I was in Vegas. I found this wedding from June 30th, 2007. What a great day of fun! Martha & Dustin were amazing. The group they were with were so much fun. I thought I would post this from back in the day. Martha & Dustin are coming on their 3rd year of marriage now! YAY! Congratulations to both of you~It was a complete pleasure to be a part of your big day!

Happy Easter Weekend Everyone! Little PEI is a buzz with sunny temperatures, people on the boardwalk, and children filled with excitement.

The smell of Spring is in the air. The smell of Spring is a very distinct one. I love that fresh smell. I even love that you can see mud, as long as the sun in shining on it. I am glad that spring is coming early for us! To get rid of all that old winter snow and have a fresh start is the best thing for all of us!

These tulips were left outside my door about 2 weeks ago. I thought they were so beautiful I photographed them. I love tulips & I love surprises. Having a little surprise outside my door, especially one of my favorite flowers is a cause for a smile.

I hope your Easter weekend is full of sunshine, happiness & love!

60 years of love, family & giving is what I celebrate today. My mom turns 60 years old. I cannot even believe it. To me, she should still be around 40 years old. It seems like yesterday she was up every morning getting us ready for school, making sure our pizza was in our lunch bags, and breakfast was on the table. Can you believe that? Everyone morning after dragging us out of bed and most likely battling a few fights between my brother & I, she had breakfast on the table for us.

The family celebrated her birthday on Sunday afternoon, with a ton of delicious food, gifts and of course one of my sister's traditional "I can make you cry" sideshows. I love our family gatherings not because of the above mentioned but because I love my family so much that I cannot get enough of them. Their is a ton of nuttiness mixed with love, and that is no better mixture around.

My mother is a wonderful, caring & loving person who I am proud to call my mom. Happy Birthday Mom. I hope 60 is your best year yet.

I had photographed Cindy last year, last spring. What a spark plug! A spark plug is someone with a ton of excitement, full of life and dreams. I was happy to have met her! Then she introduced me to her nephews. The pride and joy of her life. Instant connection this has brought us. I loved the way she doted on her nephews and I am sure they didn't mind either, and I understand completely how she feels about them, as I am the same with my nieces. I would give them the moon if I could, and I am sure Cindy would do the same for her nephews.

So we took a walk around downtown and took some pics of them alone and with their ever so beautiful & handsome Mom & Dad! No wonder these boys are so cute!

Cindy:

We have all enjoyed the photos you took last fall. We were so pleased with them. I loved how you followed Max and Luke around letting them do whatever and captured their little personalities. Thanks Rachel.
