WWOTB - Girls night out!

Sherry Sexton of Imagine Coaching International presented a dynamic, positive lesson in placing value on yourself and your services...We had the pleasure of being hosted by Lori Rosso of Seebreeze Manor (a lovely Bed and Breakfast in Gulfport). Lots of dynamic women and wonderful networking opportunities abounded. It was my first meeting with this group of ladies, and I had a great time getting to know them!

Ekaterina - A Russian Beauty

Ekaterina came to my studio for some personal photographs to commemorate a very special birthday...After much careful planning and collaborating, we came up with some beautifully soulful and even some playful images depicting her warm and fun-loving spirit. Thank you Katia, for allowing me to portray you during this special time of life.

The Setting...

Lots of my friends and networking connections inquired about the Art work in the Main Suite for the Open House...as many of you know, I had an Art Gallery and Studio in the Village of the Arts prior to moving to Saint Petersburg, and the art on display was some of my virtual paintings and mixed medium pieces. I'm glad you enjoyed them. Here are a few images of the beautiful decorating Lisa from Exquisite Events (727-224-1471) and Karlyn from Island Lawn and Bamboo Garden (727-548-0595) provided for us. I can't recommend these ladies enough - they were top notch!

Oh, my friends are terrific! Fellow Networking friends (FNI and others), Pinellas Park Chamber friends, and St. Petersburg Chamber all got together for a rockin' good time! Special thanks to everyone who pulled it together with me. Lisa Mohyle (Exquisite Events), Karlyn Bradshaw (Island Lawn and Bamboo Garden), Alexa Berk (my beautiful daughter) and Ryan Mauck (Sunshine Group Properties) were all irreplaceable! Aaron Wilkinson (St. Pete Tech) was the entertainer, and everyone loved him!

My heartfelt thanks to every one of you who helped to spread the word, gather door prizes, coordinate and even clean up! Love you guys and gals!

Kayla - One Lovely Senior!

Kayla and I went to the beautiful beach for her first Senior Session - and what a beautiful girl! We had fun (albeit a bit windy that day), and have a great start to her Memories of a Lifetime!

Thanks Kayla, and Debi.

Osana

Preparing to launch a new line of Portraits for Women, my friend (and fellow shutterbug) Osana agreed to "model" for me for a preview of the RomancePortraits... Anyone looking for a wonderful, unique gift for the man in her life, this is a wonderful way to give him more of what he wants! Tasteful, sensitive, beautiful...you.

Sorry, it's been awhile! For my clients who have been wanting updates, thank you for being so patient while I try to keep workflow flowing! Many of you know we had the big dance school jobs starting in May, and we are so very grateful for the opportunity to photograph these girls from 3 to 17...much of our editing time is dedicated to perfecting these photo's and preparing them for delivery, so the pipeline bogs down a bit. Almost all delivered though, and on to our personalized portraits! Here's a sample of what we've been up to!

Tyler gets a sister!

Remember Jill and Tyler? Well, here's the beautiful addition to one of my favorite families...Claire is one beautiful baby, and I can see her mommy when I look in her eyes. Beautiful!
