Fall-tastic!

Okay so I really suck at keeping this blog up to date. I've had several shoots and need to post some pics soon. This Fall has been a blessing and a curse... I have been blessed to have several successful shoots and learn a little more with each one. I am cursed because, with more clients, comes more late night editing... extremely difficult with two jobs, a 2 year old and a disabled hubby.

Overall though - good times. I am really looking forward to the new year. Getting ready to launch the new website, reformat my facebook page, and really start the self-promo wheels turning.

I feel like word is finally getting out there and people know that I am actually getting the hang of this.
Now if only I could break even or getting just enough ahead to buy the equipment that will catapult this thing into high gear!

New Website

I have been working like a mad woman trying to get this monster done! Don't get me wrong, I'm super excited about launching a new website, but there are sooo many things to set up... colors, titles, music, preferences, write a bio, and I still have not picked and processed the photos I plan to display - aaaahhh!
Well, once it goes live - it's gonna rock! Stay tuned :)

The Happy Couple

Yessssss! I am soo thrilled! I feel like it finally all came together. Tiana & Jason met me at Atlantic Station today for their Engagement shoot (my first). I could go on about everything that worked, but why don't you see for yourself...

Little miss Blakely

Talk about cute! I just love taking pictures of little ones. Children are so beautiful in any light. It was very exciting to see Blakely for the first time. Shelly and Jody brought her into the world just a few days ago, and I could not wait to get over and take her newborn shots. I learned a lot from this shoot. Some things I would do differently next time, but I also learned that I was paying attention in class. Finally, I am getting more confident and feel like I know what I am suppose to do with my camera settings, given the situation... look out folks - Fresh Eye Photography just pumped it up a notch! Now if I could just save up enough for that 2.8 24-70mm Lens, it'll really get good!

Full Bloom and Isobel

I had a second session at Full Bloom, and felt much more prepared this time. It will definitely be an ongoing process. I had the pleasure of meeting Pam and the most adorable little Isobel! I forgot how quick a crawler can be - what a workout. She was cute in every pose of course. :)

Vroom! Vroom!

So if you have not figured out by now - I have a son, Dawson. He will be two in November and he is proving to be a boy's boy... he is obsessed with cars, trains, and just about anything else with wheels - Lord help me. Call me crazy, but when I found out that Year One has a car show once a month just down the street from me I thought, I might as well embrace it now... let's take the boy to see some cars. I know, I know, he's probably too little to quite get the just of it, but he still had a blast! I thought for sure the tire burn out would scare the daylights out of him - WRONG - he simply exclaimed ... VROOM! VROOM!

Did I mention that blue is my favorite color?!

Shelly-Blakely-Belly

Okay, my bad - it's taken me much too long to post these pics. Maybe it's just me, but it seems as though everywhere I turn are pregnant bellies! One of which works with me at the hospital. Shelly is a doll. She's fun, sweet, and is super excited about her little Blakely, that apparently isn't coming soon enough! Ahhh- good times. Having shared some of the same concerns and struggles in receiving one of God's greatest gifts, I could not help but offer her my new - found passion as a gift. Her are just afew of some of my favorite shots from her session. BTW "Mr Blakely-belly" was just as fun as Shelly. I had a great time with the two of them.
