Fellow photographers

It's fun to see photographers work in magazines...but its better to know those photographers whose pictures I am flipping through. How incredible a feeling to be PUBLISHED. I think that this may be my next goal!

So, what's new...let's see. On Saturday our church hosted an auction to raise money for the youth in church to attend their various summer camps. I donated a portrait session with a cd of all the images included with copyright. It sold for $65. A bit of a downer considering I have such a high opinion of myself (I'm just kidding - I was thrilled that we raised that much money for the youth and it gave me some new exposure):) but I LOVE the girl whose daughter's pictures I will be taking. Brooke is adorable & her daughter is too! So, the pictures will without fail be adorable too! But beyond just getting the booking, I have 3 new ones in the wings. YEAH! See, giving does mean receiving!

Tim and I bid on and won 6 hours of babysitting (split up in two - so 3 hours each) and a date night with a $40 gift certificate to Maggianos and 2 tickets to a movie of our choice! Can I just say that I love date nights. I adore Tim and can't get enough of him. Sappy yes, but coming up on SEVEN years in June and still going strong! I have to say that I honestly believe I am the luckiest woman alive because I have him. HE'S MINE!!! ALL MINE! :)

In other news, I am still working on my website. I have a bunch of albums uploaded and can't wait to put it LIVE! But, I have a lot to do still. I need my friend Cassidy (who was my business partner back in Milwaukee) to get her hubby Grant to write my bio. He wrote our old ones and I have to say, they were hilarious. I would much rather have it be funny and entertaining than stiff. It's more my personality anyway.

I just called and found out that the photography fair that was cancelled was rescheduled to TOMORROW night. I tried calling them the night of but no one ever returned my call, so I finally called today and got someone!!! YEAH! What a blessing that I didn't miss it!!! Yikes, That was close! Well, I should get moving on the slideshow then!

later!
