Cammie and Louie

I felt very fortunate that Cammie and Louie chose me to be their wedding photographer.  They are both warm, beautiful, authentic people--and happily, very much in love.
And that kind of made me think I might want to take a moment to preach a little, about love.
As some folks advance through life, they seem to think that love can only happen once, or that it can only happen when you're young, or that it's passed them by, or that it's just too late.
But none of that is true!  Love can happen when and where you least expect it, at any point in your life. It's just as wonderful at 45 or 65 as it is at 15 or 25...it's LOVE, people, it's great, it feels good, and it's better than any drug.  If it's not in your life right now, don't believe that it won't be...stay open, and it'll find you.
And then call me to be your wedding photographer! ;)

the places I've been...

http://www.simplehairandskin.com/

 I usually shoot faces, not places, but my friend Cassee asked me to do some photos for her new salon, Simple Hair and Skin, in Merritt Island, Florida.  And how could I refuse?  I mean, if I want to keep getting my awesome color done...
Simple has a clean, chic look and feel, and you can't tell from the photos, obviously, but it smells SO good in there.  All that, and Cassee and staff will make you look and feel great, too.

Rebecca&Jim

I had the pleasure of working with a charming couple today, Rebecca and Jim.  They are getting married in Dallas in May (too bad I'll miss the wedding!). Nothing like a little love in your life to start the day.

The lovely Miss Holly!

My Cocoa High School senior representative, Holly, was such a pleasure to work with.  Not to mention just naturally gorgeous.

Going to the dogs...again!

I believe that a huge part of what makes life worth living is found in serving others. And some of the "others" that I most enjoy helping out are the animals that are looking for forever homes.
Most of the animals that have shared my life have been from shelters or rescue groups. Someone else decided that they were too much work, or had issues, or just didn't love them. That's not how life should be for a creature that just wants to give you unconditional love, and get some love back. I've had to do a little extra work with a few of them, but it's always been worth it.
So I love having the opportunity to help find others like them their own caring bipeds...
The next event I have coming up is the Central Brevard Humane Society's Bark in the Park, on Friday, August 19. Hope to see all you local folks out there, and bring your dogs! (Cats welcome, too, if they really feel like hanging out with the bark-folk!)

Morgan's senior moments

I'm thrilled to have Morgan as my senior rep at Edgewood Jr/Sr High! She's as gorgeous in real life as she is in her photos, and tons of fun to work with. I also kinda like her horse, Nuk. What a character...

Sometimes I just feel so lucky...getting to spend time with such fabulous, fun, and beautiful people!
