internet fun

January 29, 2008 – 12:55 pm

Signed up with facebook a little while ago and it’s such a fun place for chatting with friends and networking. Click the link above and add me as your Facebook friend.

I also recently joined Flickr HERE. Not many pictures there yet, but if you have a Flickr account add me as one of your contacts and I’ll add you right back. I love browsing through the endless pictures there. So much inspiration. I also like searching through people’s travel pictures. I found all sorts of great pictures of places in Germany that I went when we lived there but never took pictures of because all I had was a pathetic point and shoot. One day I will go back to Europe with my trusty SLR in hand and capture it like I wish I would have when I had the chance.

missing summer

January 25, 2008 – 1:32 pm

Looking out my window at snow and bitter cold temps as I search my hard drive for pictures like this from last summer to warm me up. This is from my camping trip in July with my good friend Jen. Camped in Pentwater and took a little trip to Silver Lake to ride the sand dunes. It was a perfect day!

my desk today
McD’s mocha
cute camera clock and “photographers always keep things in focus” mug from my mom
catching up on some work after being sick for three weeks
trying to stay warm
dreaming of Spring

I hate winter, but I like this quote. And it totally applies to my life right now.

ida + eric • engagement 1.9.08

January 10, 2008 – 7:10 pm

I don’t normally shoot engagements in January since I work outdoors for my sessions and you never know what the weather’s going to be like in winter. But when Eric’s mom called a while ago and asked if I would be willing to shoot her son’s engagement, I was up for it. She wanted to do something special for them before Ida went back to her home in Norway at the end of this week and this was the only time we could do it. Luckily, the weather cooperated and, although we didn’t have any snow like I was sort of hoping for (crazy Michigan weather!), we got some great shots. Such a sweet couple and they both have great smiles! Here are a few favorites:
