I’m so excited, I finally got my sample wedding book in, and it is fabulous!  These are beautifully hand made and very well put together. The pages are printed on gorgeous high-quality photographic paper. The color reproduction on the pages is very accurate. It’s cover is Genuine Italian leather & it feels wonderful. Oh & they come with these cute stylish fabric bags. I think I’m in love!

They come in 7 fun colors

Voluptuous Black
Smoldering Brown
Sultry Blue
Forbidden Green
Redlight Red
Virgin white
Passion Pink

They finally released Passion Pink this year, so I had to pick up one, I think it matches my logo perfectly.

Check out the thick pages, love it!

So resolutions, yeah, those haven’t gone so well (oh, come on, I’m not the only one, am I??). I did manage to quit drinking pop, which was suprisingly easier than I thought it would be. I did manage to drop 10lbs, but I’ve slipped quite a few times. Blogging every day, um yeah, that one didn’t go so well (as you can see). So I guess I haven’t done that bad.

I’m still working on getting everything ready for my official business opening on May 1st. Although I had some set backs with logo design, and had to redesign alot of things I’d already called finished. The website is getting closer, and this week I started designing a sample album.

I have just about finished my portrait album. I can’t wait to get it submitted so I can post some images of the finished product. The picture above is my favorite spread in the whole album. That’s my cousin’s daughter, and she is such a blast to photograph, she’s at that age where she is completely comfortable in front of a camera, and this girl is so spunky I don’t think she’d ever be uncomfortable anyways (takes after her mom). I think her mom’s getting some more pictures done of her in a few months, can’t wait. Anyways, I have the rest of the album here. I’ll be putting together a wedding album in a few weeks.

I did get a chance to meet up another photographer (Shannon Colgan) last weekend, she’s become a really good friend of mine over the past few months. She is going to be shooting weddings with me. I’m so stoked about it. Most photographers are really good at seeing things we see everyday and bringing out the extraordinary, things most people will just walk by and ignore. This girl can find things that most photographers will just walk by and ignore. She’s got a totally unique spin on things and I love it. I think she’s going to really bring a different flavor to the table. She’s also won quite a few contests and had some of her work published in the area, and she is awesome at pool. I’ll be working to set her up with her own blog soon, but for now you can check out her flickr stream.
