Kelly’s Flowers

My friend Kelly does flowers for her friends weddings and they look gorgeous! Her friend’s wedding is today, but I went to Kelly’s house last night before going to Karaoke with some other friends of ours. I got some shots of her flowers because she may be starting a business doing flowers for weddings professionally.

Surprise Cookie

Gary and I went to my parents house for dinner tonight and then we took them out to get dessert.  Gary went off to get me this cookie as a surprise . . . winnie the pooh . . .  and he was yummy 🙂

Fiesta for the Cure

Helping out an organization is great, especially if it’s to help find a cure for a disease that affects to many people.  When we were at On The Border, the servers were wearing these Fiesta for the Cure shirts.  They were out, but I’ll be checking back when they get new shipments in.  $5 goes to Susan G Komen for the Cure.  You can order a shirt online at http://www.fiestaforthecure.com/ but you pay for shipping, so go to a local store and get 2 instead!  ‘Pink is the new Black’!

Clay and Miranda’s Engagement Session

Our good friends Clay and Miranda got their engagement session done today. We didn’t get a chance to do one before the wedding, so we did one today, and it was so fun 🙂

We started on the NCSU Campus since that is where they met, and then we headed over to Pullen Park for a ride on the carousel!

If you are interested in an engagement shoot, a fun family, or couple shoot, e-mail me at photos@sue-leigh.com

@ the Fair with Friends

Gary and I met up with our friends Erich and Stephanie at the fair last night. There weren’t a lot of people out – we think because of the off and on rain during the day, but it was perfect from 8pm to midnight! So Gary won me a Hello Kitty by playing “whack a mole” and he had to hold it when I went on any rides, so Erich got this shot if him which is so cute!:

Fair, Food, Fireworks!

Here are some of the photos from the fair when Adrienne and I went together to shoot. We went around 7:30-ish I think, so it was dark out . . .

I think this is the smaller ferris wheel – and what happened to the really large one they had every year?

this is actually the other ferris wheel, not a firework 🙂

Gifts!

Gary was in Florida for the day for work on Tuesday and I was at the fair with Adrienne.  When I came home, look what Gary had for me!  He usually brings me back a little stuffed something with the name of the state he was visiting, but I had forgotten all about Transformers coming out on DVD yesterday!  Woohoo, date night movie!  And the two disc set, though it would have been neat if they had a transformer figurine that came with it 😀

Photos and Fireworks at the Fair!

Last night Adrienne and I went to the fair (2nd X for me) for a little shooting and a little food. We got there in the evening and stayed for the fireworks . . . we were going to try and get on the ferris wheel for them but we wouldn’t have made it in time and then we didn’t want to spend more money, so we found a nice spot on a grassy hill instead.

I would have photos up, but my laptop power cord died the other night, so I can’t do anything until my next day delivery package arrives with brand spankin’ new cord.

I should have photos up in the next couple of days, so check back!
