Abandoned Sign

In Cary, there is an old abandonned sign that my mom told me about . . . evidentally there used to be a building that went with the sign, but not any more. It’s kind of falling down and stuck between the trees. It’s very cool. I wish I could bring it home and put it somewhere B-)

I LOVE this Shot!

So last night, I didn’t have time to look at all my photos from the Sunday shoot, but I saw this and totally fell in love with it!  The flowers were my idea, but my friend Adrienne gets all the credit for stringing and tying them.

Mark and Regan

Today I had a photo shoot with Regan, and Mark came out again. The first scheduled shoot for the two of them, we had rain and tornado warnings, and the second time Regan’s alternator blew so Mark and I went ahead and did a shoot and so he came out again to do the dual shots which is what we did today 🙂

We got a lot of shots, but it’s late so here are just a couple!

Miranda and Clay’s Wedding

Today was Miranda and Clay’s wedding, which was so beautiful. I was one of the bridesmaids in a lovely dark crimson pink dress and we all had pink and yellow gerber daisy bouquets, matching shoes, and the necklaces which were part of our bridal party gifts. The weather was absolutely perfect and I hope to see the wedding pictures soon! I didn’t have much time, but here are some shots I got from the wedding.

Maximus Fish Updated Photo

I had my camera with me today at work so I thought I’d take a picture of Maximus. I don’t know if he has grown much since I first got him . . . but I would have to say he’s the coolest fish ever! Though when I was a kid I had a goldfish named Kelly, which I think I was quite fond of . . .

and I went to the local Arboretum with a friend tonight, so check back later for pics 🙂

bad weather = no shoots = no photos

I would have photos up, but I have had 4 shoots canceled this month! Granted, two shoots were on the same day and are going to be combined, but still!

  • April 7th shoot canceled due to 50 degree weather
  • April 14th shoot canceled because of someone evidently not serious and certainly not professional, which just wasted my day since I could have scheduled another shoot . . . arg
  • April 15th shoot canceled due to intermittent rain and a tornado watch or something

Last week, was going to go shooting with a friend, but of course it had to rain that night, so instead we went to Moes watched a movie, and had soy ice-cream.

Last weekend Gary and his dad (with truck) trimmed the bushes in front of our house . . . we will be painting the house soon which will be nice (so we are prepping) . . . we are thinking a yummy warm, buttery yellow.

As always we have dinners with friends and family, and a wedding coming up at the end of the month, and two of the shoots rescheduled and Gus got a bath and trim on Sunday.

I am also fairly psyched about my new glade car scented oil (air freshener) in ‘tropical moment’. I was afraid it would be a nauseating sickly sweet scent that would make me want to hurl every time i got into my car, but it’s actually quite pleasant which makes me happy.

Oh, and the ever fun Taxes 😡
