Inspiration to be better than just good.

Inspiration to be better than just good is what this video means to me as a photographer. I am inspired to raise the bar of my photographic art for myself and my business to be the best. Watching this video to me says never give up on what you love and follow your heart to be the best person you can be. just watch and be inspired.

Natalie's 1st Birthday Party!

Family, friends, balloons, streamers, food, drinks, ice cream, and of course the CAKE! We had a great time seeing everyone that came to kick off Natalie's 1st birthday party! We had close to 30 people in our house which some of you know is not that big but we did manage to get by. We had a birthday card booth so people could make bd cards for Natalie's future bd parties. We had some very creative folk to do up some super fancy cards too. Natalie's first taste of cake and she was hooked, saying more or should I say "mo" . So cute she was! Enjoy and more picture to come shortly of all the gifts she received! Let's just say she got HOOKED up.

Natalie's Dedication

Natalie was dedicated on April 19th 2009! The same day we celebrated her birthday with about 30 friends and family that came to see Natalie dig into her cake! We had a great turn out for her dedication as well. Here at the chapel at Woodman Valley Natalie received a blessing from a pastor and an elder of our church and then she was given a silver spoon and her 1st Bible! Here are some shots taken from last Sunday! Enjoy. Photography provided by Daron Short with DSDP and Brad Walters with Brad Walters Photography who is also the inventor of the ProFusion which you can look at here

workbench FINISHED.

This has been in the works since we moved out west, and I finally snapped when my neighbor Jared came over to borrow a tool to fix his truck brakes and I said if you can find it you can borrow it and that is when I decided to unleash the weekend task of tool organization. This I know will make some of you question why I posted my workbench pictures before Natalie's bd pix and the it's for the simple reason is that this post is much less time consuming than the next one will be so hang in there and be patient the CAKE is on it's way! I promise!
