A Double giveaway for Photographers :)

Wouldn't you love to win something? I know I would, so I'm blogging today about an awesome giveaway I found on FB.

It's from Pamela Topping. She is giving away a trench bowl, which is great for newborn photo shoots, a very cute Camera Love Necklace on Leather Cord. And last but not least Rockstar Actions for Photoshop & PSE!

I know I want them :)  Love Love Love it!

{C} Family in the spotlight.

I got to work with a wonderful family today. Staff Sergeant Conway had just gotten home from his depolyment, and you can tell how much his family loves him. They were such a fun family to work with, even though it started raining about halfway through their session.

Thank you for your service SSG Conway, and thank you Julie for being such a strong wife and mother while he was deployed.

We got to participate in our local library's reading program today, and when we got to the craft time, my youngest was excited that he got to paint! I love being able to go to our library and my kids always have a great time when we go.

If you haven't checked our your library you really should go :)
