Today, August 14th is my husband and my 20th wedding anniversary! Twenty years is a long time! You don’t even have to tell me. And in case you’re wondering, marrying my husband has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.  When I first met him, I knew there was something special about […]

This weekend while I was out and about running errands, I stopped and talked to a few people who I may not have. Not because I don’t regularly talk to strangers but because I was just trying to get in and get out. I was wearing a shirt that my best friend had given me. […]

This past weekend I had a wonderful headshot session with a new client. He was actually a referral from my current client and subject of last week’s blog, Felicia.
