Sorry I have been MIA from my blog of late. I recently lost not one, but TWO, of my pets. The past 6 weeks have been very rough. I lost Natalie, my beloved girl who I have had for 17 years, the day before Mother’s Day. It was sudden and unexpected and she died in my arms. I was so not prepared, as we never are. A few weeks later, Mommie, my girl I’ve had for 14 years, was diagnosed with cancer. I have spent the past two weeks caring for her around the clock and I finally had to let her go yesterday 6/28/10. I don’t know what is harder, losing one unexpectedly or having to say goodbye to one. They have been through thick and thin with me: through my father’s cancer and death; relationships and break-ups; 3 moves and were always there no matter how bad of a day to greet me with purring warmth and love. I miss them both so much. They were more than pets, they were my family and although I gave them a great life, they gave me a lifetime of unconditional love and support. Rest In Peace my precious babies :’(
Natalie

Mommie

Saying my last goodbye. That last hug lasted about 30min. I didn’t want to let her go. Hardest thing ever.

Here’s a short video I shot with my iPhone last week while I was home taking care of her. She LOVED my shoes! Always has, would rub her face on them forever and ever. It was the cutest thing. The morning I had to take her in, she rubbed her face on them, as weak as she was.

She was just a little over 2 weeks old in these pics and did so amazingly well for me. The perfect, most precious little girl ever. And big sister Ellie did a great job too of helping out! Such a gorgeous family and I am so honored to capture these precious moments for them!

I had the honor of helping my good friend and fabulous photographer, Lori Barbely, shoot the SPCA’s Paws in the Park on February 13, 2010. For Florida, it was a freezing, dreary day on Lake Eola, but lots and lots of fun. There was a great turnout despite the less than desirable weather conditions and the cutest doggies, and one kitty!!









Tom Terry, from WFTV’s Channel 9, was the Master of Ceremonies

I shoot a lot of children for modeling portfolios and this was my first time meeting and working with Abby. She was AMAZING!!! Like a seasoned pro! And how CUTE is she?! These are actually my favorite types of shoots because we get to change outfits and create different looks for their portfolios. Her outfits were so adorable!! I got so many great shots, these are just a few of my favorites. Thank you Abby SO much for doing such a great job!

I have been so completely swamped with holiday sesssions this month, I haven’t had a chance to post some of my favorites! After a month of shooting, these are winding down and I am not booking any more sessions. But I wanted to take a minute a post a few of some of the beautiful and wonderful families that I have shot this past month! More too come, I promise! If you are waiting on proofs, I am feverishly editing and processing them as fast as I can and will have them to you soon!
Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!! Give thanks for we are all so blessed!

I had the honor of photographing this beautiful baby girl when she was just 6 days old!!! Remember this precious baby girl on my blog HERE? Look at how big she has gotten?! She has grown into such a beautiful girl and the most stunning blue eyes I have ever seen!! It was so great to see her again! I love that about my job, getting to see babies and children grow up! I am truly blessed!
