Weddings and more!


I've got plans for a wedding in the future. I'm excited and nervous at the same time.  More excited right now than nervous, but as time gets closer, I may become more nervous.  A good friend of mine has asked for me to do her photo's for her upcoming summer wedding.  I'm excited to jump at the chance and to get the experience.  My problem is that this is my first wedding and I'm lacking experience but she doesn't want to hire anyone else.  So I hope and pray that I don't screw it up.  The above picture is a picture I done of one of her bouquet's that my mother made for her.  I have told my mom we need to go into business together because she can do the flowers no matter what the mix is and make them look amazing! And I am able to do the photography! But at least I'm gaining some knowledge and hopefully between now and June, I'm able to get more photography equipment to go with me so I am fully prepared!  Again, I'm still learning as to what is best so pray for me that I don't screw it up!

Our Past in our future


I was able to go out to my aunts house this weekend and she has lots of antique stuff in her yard.  I truly enjoy older stuff from our past.  It has a story to tell if only they could talk.  Maybe if they could at least tell a part of their history, we would know the people who used the items.

Once we have warmer weather I would love to go out and do more there in Salina, Oklahoma.  Also there in the nearby town itself is older buildings that would be great photo opportunities with people.

Snow and Ice



A day outside is always fun for taking pics.  Especially with snow and ice.  That has been the great thing about the cold icy snow.  I've enjoyed being out and getting some shots of the snowy creeks which are now turned to solid ice or like the picture below turned into ice cycles.  The shot above is from out of my parents horse barn.  Thought it was pretty cool. :) Still getting use to my camera.  Hopefully soon I will be able to get some outdoor shots of my kids all at once and enjoy them rather than a shot here and there of each of them individually.  Anyways, not much else going on around here these days...ta ta for now.
