A random camera story

Anyone who knows me is wondering why in the name of la-de-da does Corrie have a picture of a Nikon camera as the background on her blog?  I am a Canon girl at heart.  I love my baby.  BUT I can't take a picture of my camera with my camera now can I?  

When I was playing around with the new set up over here last night, I had an epiphany about what I wanted.  I went looking for a picture but none of it was what I wanted.  I know, I get these ideas in my head and they have to be perfect.  I'm working on it.  Anyway, while I was quietly fuming about not finding what I wanted, I remembered my husband's old film camera sits on the bookshelf in the office!

I grabbed it, ripped the shiny bright pink table cloth (leftover from Katie's birthday party) back from the dining room table and went to work.  The end result (10 pictures later) was exactly what I was looking for!


And that is why there is a picture of a Nikon in the background of a blog of a girl who will never own anything but a Canon!

Changes...

I am going to get back into blogging over here!  I know I have been a slacker about it!  But I am going to make some changes to the format both here and on my facebook page.  I want to do more than just share my shoots, I want to give you all a window into who I am, why I do this and the chaos and fun that my everyday life can be!

Of course I will still be sharing samples of my shoots, but I think hiring a photographer, especially one that works with your children, is about more than pictures.  Its about who they are, what they can get out of your children and can they capture the spirit of who your family is!

While you are waiting for all these big changes (it won't be long I swear!) remember to book a spring mini-shoot!  What is a mini-shoot you ask?  Read this and it will fill you in!  Give me a call or drop me an email and we will get your session booked!
