Saturday was a glorious day in Upstate New York. It also happened to be Garage Sale Weekend in Northville. We decided to take advantage of the fact that A)it was beautiful out, and B) that I didn't have to be at work until 5:30 on Saturday to go out and enjoy the summery weather, and the sales! Here are some of the highlights of our trip!
For my 120th day of this blog, I have some fun out takes from my second crack at my friend's daughter's newborn shoot (I had to make sure to get some great shots w/the big brother in them, of course) Here are my favorite out-take moments! ♥
Today I decided to take another solo crack at Amish country. After last week, when I got stuck in the mud, I was a bit nervous, but I decided to prove that I wasn't scared, and off I went. The results were AMAZING! ♥ I truly live in such a beautiful place!
Wednesday was a beautiful day....well, not so much as far as the weather goes, but for pictures; yesterday was a beautiful, wonderful, fantastic, very-good day! I took a ride with my friend Matt, just trying to see what we could see. As you can see below, there were a great many interesting things to be seen!
There were horses...
...and flowers....
...then I was inspired!
By some dandelion fluff that reminded me of my amazing friend Sarah's painting...
Tuesday the husband and I went for cocktails with my Grammy ( ♥ ) and then we took a ride out to see the Amish farms (after my disastrous trip this past week, I will never do that particular ride alone again) The results, as you will see, are beautiful!
Monday was a rainy day....but of course, not until JUST before I was leaving to take my pictures for the day...as a result I got precious little that I could use. These are the highlights....

Sunday was another long day at work; there was a party to deal with, plus the normal-regular-Sunday stuff...once I finally got done, I was nearly out of light, and only had a tiny bit of light to capture whatever I could...with that in mind, I set off to shoot something I've been thinking about capturing since I started this project in January....the plane that sits out in front of the Fulton County Airport.....
Follow me as I document the special moments that make life worth living! I love photographing children in their natural environment and local scenery. I am willing and able to do Custom Christmas cards, Birth Announcements, and Invitations upon request.
I'm a photographer, a mother, a daughter, sister and friend. I love a bottle of good red wine and more genres of music than I could possibly name. I live on coffee, and the smiles I get from my kids. Photography is a passion.... something I could not get through the day without....on par with music, which is necessary for life.
My perfect match in nearly every way, Bobbo is truly my best friend. I love hanging out with him as much today as I did nearly ten years ago, and I feel so blessed to have such an amazing partner in crime, and a wonderful father for my humans. That's right, ladies, I have scored. Truly. He cooks, he works on cars, he baths, diapers, and rocks babies. He is truly a gem.
The Little Humans
Miss Amazing
My sweet, curious blue-eyed first born. From an early age, I was convinced that she was a super-hero, and to this day she has never ceased to amaze me, both with her thoughtful nature, and her ability to see the beauty and the good in everything. Amelia-mazing is an incredibly wonderful big sister, and loves and defends her brother with a vengeance, and I adore the bond that they have; they are truly best friends.

Toes
My handsome, determined, sweet second born son. From day one, tiny-toes was the exact opposite of his sister in every way. He has taught me that there is always more than one way to do things, (and he is determined to find every one, let me tell you!) and that you can watch a single episode of scooby-doo every day, for all the t.v. time you're allowed each day for 2 weeks without losing your mind......if it's a really good episode.
