~as turkey day approaches~

2011-11-23T19:07:00.000-08:00

here it is the night before Thanksgiving.....ive finally completed all CHRISTmas sessions and starting on card orders now-with only a few reg session clients to clear off the edit list:)) productive if i do say so myself!!!!!....however with the extreme busy~crazy~hectic schedule i have yet to post a single thing i am thankful for this month on any of my social media pages.....badBADbad girl i know:// so lets start now....never too late in my book!!!!

i will spare you all from reading a months worth of things im thankful for in one blog post lol.....i will limit to the ones that are most recent for me, those that really touch my heart and make me think~work~keep moving~wake up everyday!!!!!

my son~ without him i can honestly say im not sure where i wld be at this point in my life....hes my world and teaches me daily to have patience, gives me love daily and wakes me up with a smile to melt anyones heart in an instant!!!!

my close fam/friends~ the ones who are ALWAYS there for me and for my son in good times, bad times, those that are questionable and ALL in between:))) thanks for not judging but supporting through and through in all situations fully!!!

my job/clients~ you all allow me to be creative, express my feelings, trust my judgement and push me to continue learning and growing in an ever growing and changing position(and thanks for your patience with me on my learning business 101-lol)

las but NOT least........GOD~ he always giving me strength when i think im at my lowest point, courage when i need it most, love even though i dont always remember to show him the same and forgiveness when i take for granted that all is well and i forget to pray to him for everything that i am thankful for....its great to know that no matter how forgetful, how much i sin or how imperfect i am that he loves me reguardless!!!!

to all of you taking the time to read this- may God bless you and yours!!! thanks for your time and hope you have a great turkey day!!!!!

~new pricelists/products~

2011-07-31T09:23:00.000-07:00

i love new products- i now offer magnets(perfect for announcements, bday invites and soooooo much more)....and have finally put together a pricelist for the all too favorite float wraps :))))

scroll down to pricelists at the bottom of this page and you will find them all there!!!! any questions plz feel free to email me!!!!!!!!

~update 2~

2011-07-12T09:12:00.000-07:00

taking me a bit longer to update with all the new info....my aopologies!!!! next on the list however is pricing and will be effective as of july 18!!!!!

session fee will remain the same $50.....cd fee is going up to $150-this is a must considering orders have fallen drastically over the last year-i have recvd several emails asking why from my printing company and online ordering gallery too!!!! i understand to some degree but also know that i refuse to raise print prices(just cant make myself charge $20+ for a single 5x7 print-thats just bonkers!!!!!)-so in order to keep print prices as they are copyrights are increasing!!!!!!

if you have scheduled a session with me and paid session fee already you still pay the old cd price!!!! if you havent paid your session fee you have till monday july 18 to get it to me in order to lock in this price-otherwise it will be noted on your info sheet that you must pay new cd fee!!!!! plz contact me if youre unsure!!!!!

i will closely watch all sessions over the remainder of the year and determine what, if any price changes will happen after the first of the year also so there may be another price update starting jan of 2012!!!! i spend countless hours scheduling/editing/msging and deserve to be paid for my time-although i want to remain affordable for all-i also need to compensate myself and my family!!! im also hoping that this price increase will cut out those unruly clients that i have had who use me simply to have me alter my style to fit theirs and then never order after spending countless extra hours trying to please them!!!!!! i want to enjoy my work- have time to fully edit like i want-and have time to plan out the perfect session, not just wing it every single time and pray for it to turn out as i had hoped!!!!

stay tuned for an updated scheduling post super soon as well....im working on a full schedule that allows me to have time with my family and for myself as well as days designated for shooting, editing, ordering and shipping!!! right now i work 7days a week all day long- to keep from getting completely burnt out this must be handled asap!!! this will likely limit days available but i hope that you understand and trust that the pics wld be worth it!!!!!

2011-07-06T13:32:00.000-07:00

just a qick edit post to practice for the real pic once the best location is found....but what better day to practice than on july 4th:)))) and what better model than my own precious baby boy-hehe LOVE IT!!!!! hope everyone had a super safe holiday!!!!

~update part 1~

2011-06-22T11:17:00.000-07:00

WOW....yes i know its been quite some time since my last post....business and life have been beyond busy!!!! alot of things/news/info to discuss- to make this a bit easier on the eyes (lol) i will post up several posts over the next several days to break it all down for you all!!!!!

first post---ALL ABOUT SURGERY/MY HEALTH!!!!!!!!!

i spent several months squeezing in sessions/overbooking weekends/shooting and editing till im in pain....all to prepare for neck surgery this month!!!! i went to my preop appt and had the updated xrays and mri to check the status of the discs.....6hrs and several hundred dollars later i meet with my surgeon to have hime look me in the eye and tell me that surgery at this point... with the vast change in the size alone of my discs in my neck...shld be put off!!!!!!! i wanted to cry something terribly when he told me this- all the stress, upset clients, and more for nothing!!!! i understand after his explination and am greatful that he doesnt just wanna cut on me but at the same time-well im sure you can sense the frustration!!!

the reason for the delay- my discs(all but two-there are only seven in your neck) are all bulging out....c7 is the worse of the bunch and its actually extruding out pressing on the nerve to my right arm causing severe pain, throbbing, numbness and more to my entire arm/hand all day!!!!!! my first mri had the drs ready to operate that day....i ofcourse put my family and business first and demanded trying physical therapy first....this helped with the pain but actually made everything else worse....dr told me to clear out my books and come back when i cld- he also mentioned that it was possible for the discs to shrink enough to let off of the nerve decreasing the pain and making it where i wldnt have to have surgery-however living with the pain for that long was extremely hard and there was no way to know how long that cld take...so i cleared out my books and prepared to be fixed...however the new mri showed a significant decrease in the size of all the discs....what does this mean?!?!?!?!?! well basically if i have surgery now on c7 to ease my arm pain- i wld have to have c5-6 fixed within less than a year which is very dangerous....so the verdict is now continue to tough it out and try a neck block to see if it gives me some relief from the nerve/arm pain!!!!

did i want surgery....absolutely not!!!!!!! do i enjoy being in pain everyday...absolutely not!!!!!!! so what is one to do really?!?!?!?!?! i love my surgeon and trust his judgment....he told me straight up that if it was his neck and body he wld try the block first and avoid surgery all together if at all possible!!! i trust him and his judgement and hope that i get some relief from this block.....really really hope it helps!!!!

so what does this all mean to you?!?!?!?! the time i marked off for recovery will be upgraded to light duty work....i will take a few weeks to catch up from the pre-surgery overload.....then i will post up dates available.....i will also take time to be with my family who has recd the short end of the stick during all the preperation....i placed my business first for a few months and they deserve to be put back in that number one spot-and stay there!!!!!!

last note for the day.......thanks to all the great clients i have- the ones who are completely understanding- not demanding!!!!!! you all make it where i still enjoy what i do:)))) thank you!!!!!! to those clients who still demand pic/edit changes....yell out of frustration at me for having to have surgery and recover or for placing my family first.....POO ON YOU!!!! harsh of me-yes but its beyond deserved!!!!! i aim to please in all i do but keep in mund i am human first and foremost....if you think for one minute that your pics are more important than my family or my own personal health youre sadly mistaken and have obviously chosen the wrong photog!!!!!! i have made it clear from the beginning that this is a hobby for me...a thing i enjoy to do....plz dont make it a drag!!! i have also made it beyond clear that my family comes first ALWAYS....i had to learn to put my health up there too this year and had several clients make me feel bad for having to do so...lil remarks-questioning my availability-questioning my recovery time and pain................thats just wrong plain and simple!!!!! i am quick to forgive but dont forget....im honestly hoping that this small break from working nonstop will help me to forget but no guarantees!!!!!

AGAIN....THANKS TO ALL THE GREAT CLIENTS THAT I HAVE......YOU ALL MAKE THIS A JOY!!!!!!

i will keep you all posted on how the block goes....and remember to check back for more updates this week...alot of changes coming this year........

THIS IS ALSO THE FIRST OF MANY POSTS TO COME IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS/WEEKS!!! I HAVE PARTIALLY UPDATED THE PRICELIST....THE MAIN CHANGE YOU ALL NEED TO BE AWARE OF IS THE FEE FOR THE CD(WITH COPYRIGHTS) HAS INCREASED FOR 2011 FROM $50 TO $100....THERE IS ALSO THE OPTION TO PURCHASE AN ONLINE GALLERY WHICH STAYS UP FOR 3MONTHS(rather than having to give your order to me within a smaller time frame- you get a longer period of time and all your family can log on to order and purchase their own prints to cut down on confusion and sorting out pics on your part lol) IF YOU DONT PURCHASE THE ONLINE GALLERY ORDERS WILL STILL BE EMAILED TO ME PERSONALLY AND JUST LIKE IN THE PAST YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO HAVE THEM TO ME WITHIN 4 WKS OF YOUR SESSION DATE- NO EXCEPTIONS- ORDERS OVER THIS TIME FRAME WILL HAVE TO PAY A REUPLOAD FEE----PACKAGE CLIENTS THIS INCLUDES YOU SO PLEASE DONT FORGET TO GET THOSE ORDERS IN ASAP!!!

I HAVE BEEN BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN PHYSICIANS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS WITH SEVERE ARM/HAND PAIN/NUMBNESS/TINGLING!!! ITS HARD TO DESCRIBE BUT AFTER SEVERAL SETS OF XRAYS AND MRI MY DX IS CLEAR- I HAVE TWO BULGING DISCS AND TWO DEGENERATIVE DISCS IN MY NECK....C7 IS COMPRESSING THE MAIN NERVE TO MY RT ARM/HAND CAUSING LOTS OF DISCOMFORT, SLIGHT MUSCLE ATROPHY AND SPELLS OF NUMBNESS AND WEAKNESS!!! MY FIRST TRIP TO THE NEUROSURGEON ENDED IN TEARS WHEN HE SAID HE WANTED TO DO SURGERY RIGHT THEN IF NOT THEN IN THE NEXT 2 WEEKS AND NO LATER!!!! SCARED AND CONCERNED THAT I AM ONLY 30 AND DONT WANT TO HAVE TO HAVE NECK/BACK SURGERY EVERY 5 YRS I FINALLY FOUND A NON SURGICAL DR WHO WAS WILLING TO ALLOW ME TO TRY PHYSICAL THERAPY!!! I STARTED JUST LAST WEEK AND ALTHOUGH ITS VERY PAINFUL AND HASNT REALLY HELPED JUST YET I AM OPTIMISTIC THAT IT WILL BEGIN TO SOON....IF NOT THERES ONE MORE OPTION FOR ME BEFORE HAVING TO GO UNDER THE KNIFE- A CERVICAL EPIDURAL FOLLOWED BY MORE PHYSICAL THERAPY!!! I WILL GO FOR 4 WKS AND SEE WHERE IT TAKES ME...PLEASE CROSS YOUR FINGERS AND PRAY WITH ME!!!! THE EPIDURAL CALLS FOR A WEEK OFF WORK WHERE THE SURGERY CALLS FOR A MONTH OFF OF WORK AND ALL HOUSEHOLD/MOTHERLY/WIFE DUTIES...BASICALLY LAY IN A BED FOR A FULL MONTH- UGH- I CANT DO THAT AND I KNOW ALL YOU MOMS OUT THERE UNDERSTAND WHY.....WE AS MOMS ALWAYS PLACE OURSELVES ON THE BACKBURNER REGUARDLESS OF THE SITUATION...AND THIS SITUATION ISNT ANY DIFF!!!! I WILL DEF KEEP EVERYONE POSTED AS I CAN AND AS NEW INFO/UPDATES ARE AVAILABLE!!!!
