Baking Bread .....oldie but a goodie :") | VA,Wedding | Portrait Photographer

Eric & I made these loafs months ago... and they were oh so YUMMY!
Eric loves to bake... I love to eat what he bakes...lol :)  but we actually made this bread together.
Check out the honey butter drizzled on the top of the bread....can't you just smell it! There is nothing like making your own bread...no I don't mean with a bread machine people by hand. I can't wait to make oatmeal honey butter bread yum!

It's Wednesday! | VA,Wedding | Portrait Photographer

I am trying to be better about posting on my blog..... I have had a busy day today! I sent out my first Wedding album for a bride today! Crazy since I shot my first wedding several years ago..I could have never imagined making this a reality.For some reason it's been a emotional day happy but emotional all the same. I have been working around the clock trying to get my hands on everything I can that can help me grow as a photographer.... I think it took me this long to admit .... that I am afraid to fail.....I am afraid if I put everything I have in something and it doesn't work what then? What will everyone think? Why do I care what anyone thinks? I was always the girl who did what I wanted regardless of who liked it. I remember in high school when I dyed my hair pink how many people didn't talk to me or were afraid of me lol. I also remember that time of my life as being the happiest. So what was stopping me from being me?Within the last few couple of months I have battled this question over and over. I know I am a creative person. I know I am a good photographer.What's my problem?
 Why don't I JUST GO FOR IT!
My husband told me over and over.... "Do what you love don't go to a place you hate everyday and be miserable" ....and I thought omg ...he is right...Who cares what his family or my family or anyone thinks?!?
I can do this....if anyone can do this I can....

waiting | VA,Wedding | Portrait Photographer

The ups man dropped of a new lens for me to play with! I have been so excited waiting for it to come. I am doing all I can to improve my craft. It's tough not knowing how to get started improving your skills but something I am willing to tackle. I read anything I can get my hands on and spend countless hours focusing all my energy on photography. I am blessed to have such an amazing best friend and soul mate supporting me.




That's all know for today maybe I'll post some pics later :)

Time for me to go play....

There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected
If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out

There’s a darkness upon you that’s flooded in light
And in the fine print they tell you what’s wrong and what’s right
And it flies by day and it flies by night
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out
