It's been too long!

I've been a bad blogger! Just wanted to update everyone with what's been going on in my life.. for starters we made the big move from New York to Wyoming!! We stopped in Wisconsin for a month in between the move. We now have a house on FE Warren AFB and we're just getting settled here.

Our other big news is we're expecting baby #2 in early March! It's about time Tristan had a little playmate. We'll find out early November what we're having so stay tuned!

Business wise... living on an actual base doesn't make it easy for me to set up a studio, plus with a baby on the way and a smaller house there just isn't room for a studio. So i've had to think about what direction i want my business to go. I'm going to be updating my website sometime soon and focusing my photography on in-home newborn shoots. I'll also be offering all-inclusive packages that will include full resolution downloads of your images and 4x4 photo "brag" books from your session!

I debated whether or not to lean towards my design career and do less photography, but with a new baby coming and the work involved in getting started with something totally new just isn't an option right now.

So here are a "few" pictures from WI and our first quick trip while in WY...of course they're going in reverse order...



here's me at 16wks

and 15wks..

these are from a trip to medicine bow in WY..


here's the hot air balloon fest in Wausau, WI



here's one final cute picture of tristan and his best friend bella before we moved

check out my latest finds!!!

I'm now obsessed with Lula Ballou's designs! I started with a wristlet, then i wanted a matching cell phone holder, then a case for my wacom tablet. Now I even have a geocaching bag full of goodies. What's great is I can loop them through my beltloops and be hands free for cache searching!

For all my photographer/designer friends, the wacom tablet case she made me works perfect! visit her etsy page for more designs.. http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=56429
