why I’m a happy mother – Happy Mother’s Day!

My daughter Carly used to hate me taking pictures of her. She finally accepted the inevitable and willingly models for me. We went out recently on a spring day. I had sort of a vision of what I wanted to do, which includes a lot of work in photoshop – going for a very arts look.

I glanced up the hill and caught Zoe watching and got this shot – she’s turned to be a pretty good model too . . .

Two of the shots were taken at Justin Winery in Adelaide – the rest we shot on our property in Atascadero, Ca.

Slideshows!

I was recently approached by thumbtack.com to advertise my slideshow and photo-editing. I sort of had it on a back-burner – but this has given me a kick in the pants to promote this facet of my business. To be honest – I Love producing slideshows, photo-books and image editing – which I know some people find tedious . . . but I get totally engrossed in the creative process!

So I now have a new website and have begun posting my slideshows and photo-books here on my blog. That is the part of my business that I find tedious and sometimes confounding – the technical part. So it will probably take a bit of time for me to get it “together.”
