Happy Black History Month! On February 1, 1960, four college students from North Carolina A&T State University helped change history by staging a sit-in at the Woolworth’s Department Store in Greensboro. As the sit-ins spread in popularity, eventually Woolworth’s and other stores desegregated their businesses and lunch counters. In celebration of the month, I will […]

The gift of photography is a very special gift. Some people think it’s just pictures but it’s so much more than that. Whether you take the pictures yourself or hire a professional, you are not just capturing someone’s likeness but a wonderful memory. When I was growing up, we used to have a Polaroid Instamatic […]

I must say, 2021 has been an interesting year. For me, it has been interesting in a good way. Despite the pandemic, I had a very good year, business wise. Surprisingly enough, people got out and allowed me to photograph them and it was a glorious thing. Having a virus floating around just waiting to […]

Wow…this year has really flown by. Why does yesterday feel like it was just summer? I think when you get older, time seems to move much faster. Where one year feels like an eternity to my 16-year-old son, it’s a blink of an eye to me. At any rate, this year I decided to do […]

This year is just flying by! I can’t believe that it’s already October! What I can believe is that there are Christmas decorations in stores and we haven’t even had Halloween or Thanksgiving yet. Ugh! I don’t know about you but that really annoys me. Anyway, that is a topic for another day. Being that […]

If you’ve been following my blog, then you already know that this month my husband and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary. Yay us! To be honest, time has really flown by, so I guess that’s a good thing. If it felt like it was dragging by, then I don’t think that would be a […]

Well, this month’s anniversary makes it our 22nd year of wedded (not always) bliss. For anyone who is married, you know that marriage isn’t always easy but it can be fun. Over these 22 years, Steve and I have not missed a single anniversary together. Considering that my husband currently works out of state, I […]

For the past two weeks, I have been on vacation in Boston. I don’t like to tell the world when I’m actually on vacation because you never know who’s watching. Anyway, my son and I flew up here to spend time with my husband. By the time you read this, I will either be flying […]
