I won’t even touch the subject about my lack of blogging- lol. I will just say that I am back. Finally I am in the country for a good while. This year I have already traveled abroad three times and we aren’t even halfway through the year. Again I am super blessed for the career I have. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined getting PAID to go Aruba to do what I love- PHOTOGRAPH!!!
Now I will leave you with this maternity session. I love to shoot using the sun as my light source but sometimes I do like to bust out the strobes! Cannot wait to meet and photograph the baby girl in that tummy. Note: I REALLY luck out with HOT clients!!
New fave:




Second day in a row blogging but that’s about to end cause I am heading to Peru tomorrow. =)
Again I truly enjoy capturing both Maternity and Newborn sessions. It allows me to get to know the family and gets me super excited to meet the baby. Here is Hendrix (love the name!) at two weeks exactly. As you can see he is so fortunate to have an older brother to take care of him. And aren’t you totally digging his hair??!!!

If you are here for a photography post- this ain’t one, so you can bounce now!
Everyone- well maybe not everyone- has The Jacket, The Dress or The Jeans. The Jacket they buy- a little too snug, a little like two sizes smaller than your actual size. When you buy it you say: “I am totally going to lose the weight.. this jacket will be my motivation.” It’s shameful for me to admit that I bought this jacket about two years ago for $135 and I haven’t worn it. I would take it out sometimes and try it zip is up and oh, it was still too tight. Well now I want to wear it. No, really I am determined to. My weight issues started in high school. I have always felt chubby but now I feel chubby-fat. My cheeks, my soccer thighs, ugh I can go on. It really can put a damper on my day and impede me from going places and seeing people- cause I have nothing to wear and I just don’t want them to see me like this. Sadly it has also kept me from in FRONT of the camera. I have few very few pictures of me this year. An now I just WISH I had those moments recorded. Here is a very touching blog post by Deb Schwedhelm on why YOU shouldn’t let the your weight stop you from having your pictures taken: http://www.debsphotographs.com/photoblog/2010/05/is-there-a-perfect-time/
Anyways thank goodness it’s winter, right?! I have been living in jackets, sweaters- whatever just to hide these extra pounds. I don’t want to hide anymore. I am done. I started my diet on Monday with scrambled white eggs and since I have enjoyed salads, water and green tea. Honestly I just want to put this in writing for myself. I want to make myself accountable. I know some of us have made this our New Year’s resolution- so BEST of LUCK!! I will keep you updated on my progress- thanks for reading.
My jacket- it just screams EMILY- I love anything with the diamond pattern like that.

Alizay on right and her “cousin” Kujo on left. Alizita’s eyes are so hazy- breaks my heart.
