Fonder

                                                So last night I decided to walk into my scraproom
                                                   and not walk out until I had created something.
                                                 It had been so long that all my confidence is shot.
                                                  Anyhow, I printed out a couple of photos I liked,
                                            grabbed some paper and stared blankly, for a long time.
                                          But finally while looking at a photo of Ryann and Bobby,
                                                                           inspiration hit me!
                                                   They are still going strong almost 6 years later,
                                         both at different colleges, but have learned to make it work.
                                            And the saying, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder"
                                                            came to mind and that was all I needed.
                                   I broke out the Studio Calico mists I have been hoarding for months.
                                                          Not quite sure if I like the finished look,
                                                            (I am much too anal about white space)
                                                                             but it is what it is.

 

During these last couple months I have done a couple of photoshoots,

including my first wedding!

It just so happened to be my daughters' first ever babysitter.

She had a lovely, small reception at a local Bed & Breakfast.

Here is just a smidgen of the photos from that day:

 

 

I finally got my belated 50th birthday gift from my husband last month,

a new camera- a Canon 6d!

I love that my camera store buys back any used camera/lenses

so you can upgrade, every penny helps.

Here are some favorite photos from last month:

 

 

                                  I guess absence makes the heart grow fonder for this blog as well,
                                                                 two posts in three days!
                                                               Thanks for stopping by!
