It Finally Got Me & New Photos

The same virus bug that has been circulating around finally got me yesterday...Right in the middle of a very busy week for me...I'm feeling better today, just a little weak and tired. I just have to put everything in perspective and hopefully I will get it all done...

I have 3 photo shoots to edit and a yard sale to get ready for. Not to mention trying to decide if we are in fact going to GA for Thanksgiving and we have had another issue on our minds & hearts but at this time I cant really say anything about but maybe later when the time is right. So needless to say we have been terribly busy and I really did not have time to get sick!

I'm so excited, I have had 4 photo shoots in the last week and I have 2 more coming up in the next week. 2 shoots are edited and I'm working on the rest. I'm going to be starting either a new blog page for just my photos or a regular photo page...but when its up and running I will put a link on this page so everyone can visit it too. If you or anyone you know is looking for someone to take photos give them my page link or email me directly skishy25@aol.com I will do any type of photos maternity, family, children, babies, engagement, wedding or events.

Here are a few from this past week, I will have more soon! Hopefully the quality comes out ok, I compressed them for quick upload...let me know if they look distorted.

This is my cousin's baby Cali-

This is Amanda & James taken at Venetian Gardens in Leesburg. We will be taking indoors pics soon.

My First Photo Shoot

Yesterday I had the privilege to take maternity pictures for my honorary sister, Sloan. My sister Mandi and Sloan have been best friends forever. Her and Toby are a big part of our family and we all love them. I was so excited (and nervous) when she asked me to take her photos. They are the cutest couple and I enjoyed helping make the memories of her pregnancy!

This is my first "official" photo shoot, though. I have played around with my camera and I took our family photos last year. I have often thought it would be lots of fun to take pictures for a living and I really enjoy it! This is a path of new discovery for me and I'm excited to see where it leads me. I'm hoping to have a few more scheduled shoots in the near future, I want to do babies, kids, maternity and families! I may try one of those "trash the dress" sessions too, they look like alot of fun!

So here are just a few of the pics from yesterday and I will be making a slide show by the end of the week to post! I hope you all enjoy them! Feel free to comment, good or bad! I need constructive criticism, its good for learning!
