Ben and Summer

Well long time no blogging...sorry for that been away from internet for a while... To those who have contacted me ....I will be sending out replies ASAP!

Now to see why I have been delayed in blogging here is some of my favorites from Ben and Summer's wedding. It was a beautiful day, though it was a bit warm, I was honored to snap a few pictures for some great new friends!

Side trip to Wheeling

Well things got turned around and I didn't go camping this weekend. Though I was on my way back home after I turned around and got rerouted through downtown Wheeling, WVA. Now let me tell you this town is just weird and interesting at the same time. Each block it seems is stuck in time. There was a section that look like the 50's and then the New Orleans section, and then like victorian... But for a photographer trying to kill some time it was very interesting to walk around and shoot pictures.

Lucy's first trip to the dog park...

Let me introduce you to Lucy (her nickname is Blue...story to come later) and her Daddy. (Jim doesn't have any kids so Lucy is his baby....I will tell ya about cheeseburgers later) For those who want to know Lucy is a Toy Fox Terrier and she is about a year and a half old. I rescued her from a shelter in Indianapolis, In after her mother had been in a puppy mill and the owner passed away. They sent the mom and Lucy to a shelter where I found her. When I brought her home she was only as big as a dollar bill! Look! (sorry bad cell phone pics)

















She is my best friend and a great model for trying out new ways to shoot with my camera. (she doesn't like the flash but she deals cause the treats are what makes her happy LOL)




So the other day Jim and I took her to the dog park. This was a fun experience for Lucy since she never usually gets off her lease at home. She is a runner! So off we go and she loved it except for the big dogs. I wish I could have gotten a shot of her playing dead anytime a big dog came around her. Or when the little pug mix decided Lucy was a tree and "made his mark" LOL. Oh well you will have to settle for her posed shots here LMAO!


Oh I got a kick out of the water fountain thing they have there (I had never been to the dog park either LOL) Take a look at the picture and see how ironic it is!

More of my favorites

A few of my favorite sunsets!

My mother's vibrant flower garden...This woman can grow anything!

Do you know what these berry things are... They are growing out of my rock wall in my back yard. They start out as purple flowers, then green berries, and they the berries turn red like little tomatoes. Who knows but they photography well!



I shoot a lot of inanimate objects that don't make any sense but the composition just catches my eye! Enjoy!

My rock and my biggest supporter...

This is my soon to be husband (May 29th, 2009), Jim. He is the rock of my life and my biggest supporter for anything I do.

I want to give him credit here because I do not know where I would be without him.

(oh and his nickname is Big Mac Daddy Unicorn LOL)

Some of my favorites....

Here is some of my favorite pictures. This will start to show you some of my shooting styles.

Since I live in Pittsburgh known for it's bridges I thought I would share a few of them I took when I was on a Gateway Clipper Sunset Cruise. The weather was wonderful!

Please excuse the sizing and such of the pictures....I am a new blogger I need to update my settings for blog pictures!




Now on to my daughters.....Cassie "Louise" is very photogenic no matter how you shoot her she always is a good model for me. Now Maddie my youngest....Well that is another story, she is always looking the other way or got some silly smile. But that is just her...or as she likes to be called "Cheese!" (I will go into details about nick names in a later blog) Here is some shots of them!
