Today wrapped up the 3 day event of OSP Indy. Basically 3 days of a lot of local photographers, and some not local, hanging out downtown learning from each other and building relationships. This was my first year to attend and I really enjoyed getting to spend time with other photographers.

The speaker today was great for me to hear. He challenged us to ask hard questions about ourselves and our businesses. It all just made me realize, again, how blessed I am to be doing what I was designed to do. Not only do I love art, photography, light and color, but also people and their relationships (with each other, family, friends). I can’t help but fall in love with the couples I shoot. I want to help them have the day …

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve posted. I made a rule with my self that I wouldn’t post until all of my taxes were done. They are in the mail today!

I wanted to introduce my newest product, the wedding proof book. It is a 8 1/2″ x 11″ hardcover book with all the final images from your wedding printed in it, 6 to a page. For your wedding proofs, I offer the choice of either this proof book or loose 4×6 prints.

Lastly, I have been working on getting engagement sessions scheduled for the spring. So if you are wanting yours done this spring, please let me know as my days are filling up fast.

Happy Easter! (It’s my favorite holiday)

Okay, so I’m finally ready to post about my brother’s wedding! Warning, this is one huge post!

Ryan and Amanda got married on a winter wonderland of a day, February 23rd. The wedding was in Rockport, my hometown, and where Ryan and Amanda will reside. Prior to the wedding an ice storm had left everything glistening. Perfect for a winter wedding. After the rehearsal, my parents hosted the rehearsal dinner at their home. It was really the perfect setting. My mom’s friend Kim, who was my New Year’s Eve bride, cooked up some fabulous eats!

The next morning I headed to the salon in Owensboro with the ladies. Much to my delight, they had complimentary long john’s (my favorite donut, no filling of course). They did a great job with hair and makeup. You can tell that they had their work cut …

How great it is that I have the window open in my office today! Last week I spent some time doing some well-needed spring cleaning on my computer. What a task. I now have 3 external hard drives to hold all of my images.

On perhaps a more exciting note, we finally got a real kitchen counter installed yesterday! For over a year we’ve been using a “temporary” plywood with stick tile counter top. Not glamorous, but functional. We were able to buy the granite counter tops that were used in the Centex show homes from the Indiana Home Show about a month ago. Several pieces broke in the moving, but since we have a small galley kitchen, it was enough for what we needed. I am still in shock when …
