Fun little Senior session with a long time family friend. Between those freckles & gorgeous blue eyes… the girl set off alarms. Really… she did. We moved on to our next location before we met any men in blue though so I’d call it a successful day.
Ah… the joys of choosing me as your photographer ;)

Early this week I got to head up to Seattle for one of my one on one consults. Jeannine trekked all the way down from Canada to meet me half way and spend the day chatting it up in a coffee shop, playing in/under/thru Pike’s Place Market with our gorgeous model and, well basically, just having way too much to be called work ;) I also want to give a BIG thank you to Lindsay for finding me our lovely model… she knows how to pick ‘em huh?

It’s crazy to me how small this huge world of ours its. Last year I met Stephanie when she flew out for a mentoring session. We keep in touch and when I was putting together my NJ consult she was telling me about her friend Chrissi that would be there. Right before I was getting ready to leave, I get a call from an old friend Scarlette who was also, not only interested in a mentoring session, but knows Chrissi & Stephanie! Three different cities, three different sessions… all connected through friends & family. It’s like I have this built-in, tight-knit network that just keeps growing by more amazing & wonderful people :)
When Scarlette and I got together the other day, we had this lovely girl come out and do some modeling for the shooting portion of our day. It was such a fabulous day… Scarlette showed me a cool new spot & I don’t think our model could have been any cuter…






Kathy Carlisle: LOVE that canoe. Gorgeous girl and beautiful shoot. I was so happy to hear Scarlette was starting to really pursue her passion and she was SO excited about learning from you. There you go sparking another light inside someone and making there day:) (06.25.2009 12:30pm)
