olivia

so I picked up my camera for the first time in about 9 months...i forgot how much i love photography!

olivia is a wonderful Senior who was persistent in having me take some of her senior pictures.  i tried every way to weasel out of it, but with no success!  thank you olivia for allowing me to snap some shots of you and for not taking "NO" for an answer.  i really enjoyed our time together and loved getting reacquainted with one of my great passions.

here's a sneak peak at some of the shots....you're gorgeous! these are just a few...and they aren't even my favorites.  more to come.

don't call it a comeback...i've been here for years!

I don't have anything to really post tonight but maybe tomorrow...or the next day.  Someday.  Just know....I'm back!  

PEACE!

Three peas in a pod!

These sisters were so much fun to work with.  They don't have a shy bone in their bodies.  Each of them has a very different personality and it was fun watching the dynamics.  Brandi (mom) is super adorable too....must run in the family!  Thanks Brandi--I can't wait to see the wall!

My Heart's Mantra!

Sex And The City and a juicy suggestion...from moi to you!

You know you've been waiting for it...the Sex And The City movie.  Just in case you've been in a cave...let me share the trailer with you:

May I make a juicy suggestion....why not make a night of it!  Just include three essential ingredients--girlfriends, fab heels and a juicy martini! 

Here's the perfect spot for the martini, Trezo Vino.  How can you go wrong when their tagline is "wine, dine & mingle"?

How about a little preview of Meghan whipping up a fabulous martini with your name on it....

 

Can't you just taste it?  Did I mention that Meghan is being featured in the June issue of 435 SOUTH Magazine as one of the hottest bartenders in KC.  Now you have to go!  Trezo Vino with Sex And The City...so fun.  Enjoy!

What a crew!

Check out this crew--they were so much fun to hang out with and were willing to try anything.  Alexis cracked me up the whole time and in a random moment she opened her mouth and her tongue was literally "Hulk" green.  I'm sure there's an official crayon named that somewhere.  Her cousin Montana has the most stunning eyes, I've ever seen.  You may think I played around with them...but baby it's all natural with just a splash....dash of flare! 

Alexis' brother Dane was the funniest little guy.  I don't think he cried once all day...he was so tired and just kept hanging in there.  What a trooper.  I want to get him again so we can play longer and get some "action" shots.  Thanks Shannon for sharing your crew with me!

  

 

 

Catching up and begging for forgiveness...

Maybe I need to go back to my last post and read again about "the follow through"!  It's been a crazy month and I'm just now getting back into the swing of things.  Besides being plain busy, my husband and I took a vacation...yes, I said it right...a VAY.to.the.KAY!  It was an absolute dream fest.  I will post on it over the weekend.  Right now, it's catch up time and begging for forgiveness from all.

Here's Miss Kinsey--she's adorable in every way and I enjoyed spending some time with her and her mom Nikki.  It's amazing how much they look a like...even their mannerisms and expressions!  They were adorable to watch and a blast to capture images of.  Enjoy.

 

 

 

 

It's all about the follow through!

I'm a little late posting these pictures of Maggie....I'm not the poster child for fabulous follow-through on my recent promise to have these on Monday.  Yikes, sorry!

I was experimenting with some of these...trying different looks. 

...it's maggie!

You might recognize this fresh face from my new little banner above...it's Maggie!  Maggie is a staple in our household...she has watched our boys since Brody was a baby.  She's awesome and we adore her.  I still don't know who she looks like more...Natalie Portman or Keira Knightley...according to Tate and Brody she looks like Princess Amidala!  All I know is she's naturally gorgeous on all levels!

More to come--sorry I've been so slow Maggie!  Love.
