Sneak Peak…. Kelly + Duffy!

January 11, 2009

Over the holiday I met Kelly and Duffy for their engagement session in Fells Point! It was actually the first time that I had met them because they currently live in Los Angeles. They are just the sweetest couple, and I had to share a few pics of our session! More to come hopefully tomorrow on my new blog! Fingers Crossed!

January 10, 2009

I have actually had these photos ready to blog for quite some time…not sure why I didn’t blog them! Good news is…. I think this might be the last post on my old blog here… because Ross will be launching my new blog either tomorrow or Monday! Yay! Enjoy these pics from San Diego! Amber and Randall are actually brother and sister and were awesome models! Love their style!

Someone is working on my heart….

January 8, 2009

Despite my upbeat e-mail yesterday… this has actually been a week where nothing is going as planned….I am swimming in my to do lists…. (my head is barely afloat)…. I get the feeling God is trying to teach me something. You know… to trust Him.

I was hoping that He would teach me on Monday (when my hubby came home covered in ….I don’t think there is a nice word for it… vomit…. and I was cleaning it out of his car while I put the dogs in the backyard, who decided to get into the trash and have a party with it ALL OVER the yard….) and it would be over, but alas, it is almost Friday, and I still have not got it. Darn.

Each day has had it’s own unique episodes that have kept me from those stupid lists that are haunting me. Today I dropped my hard drive….. no worries, all of my originals are backed up, but there are A LOT, of edits that were not backed up yet. I cried. I want to cry again, but I am not, because I know that my God is bigger than a broken hard drive, and that they are most often recovered with a pretty penny, but it is His money to begin with, and if this is making me a better person then He will gladly cover the charges of the hard drive for the betterment of my character. I still wish I would have gotten it on Monday…

But in all honesty, my life is good….not good, GREAT! All the things that matter are just fine. I am truly blessed with amazing friends, family, health, a job I love, and an amazing husband! What more could a girl want?!?

Contest winner postponed until tomorrow…. :(

Wow….

January 7, 2009

Ok…lots to post… I feel like I always say that… but I do!! I still have Christmas Stuff that I want to share… my new years goals…and all sorts of exciting news…. so keep coming back to hear about some exciting things that are going on with my business!!

And, you saw the cute pics of our new little pup… well, I officially feel like Dr. Dolittle. I love our little pup, that is for sure, but with Chester and Sanders, life sure is interesting. (Here’s to you Jennifer!!!) I am working on getting all sorts of things done, with all sorts of interruptions. :) I feel like I have a kid! So here is a pic of me…. Dr. Elliott-Doolittle…

Apart from getting used to our new little addition, I have a few things to share!

1. My new blog will launch super soon! Ross from flosites sent me the finished product and there are a few little things to take care of, so lets hope for Friday! It looks awesome and it shows your comments (thank you to my commenters!!! They make my day!) and I will actually be able to comment back, which will be super fun and help me get to know you!

2. I got the knot magazine in the mail today in which Matt and Jennifer’s wedding was featured. Yay! My work will be in another publication this month… so I will keep you posted about that….

3. I have fun secret news that I can’t share yet until Friday… because I have a meeting with a super fun vendor that I need to go to first before I share any details. :)

4. I have to tell you about how you did for Cans for Comments. You did awesome, so thank you faithful commenters… more info to come!

5. I will be announcing the winner of my portrait contest tomorrow, so thank you for all of your entries. Folks, you seriously had me in tears. I am amazed at what you are going through or have been through.. and I wish that I could do all of the sessions for free but I am trying to help my hubby pay bills.

It helps our marriage.

so I guess that just means more contests!

6. I don’t have that many spots left for weddings in 2009! I am almost booked up, which is exciting. I will not shoot more than 30 weddings… for quality control and to combat burnout. I want to make sure that the brides (and grooms of course) that I book get the best that I have to offer. I soooo look forward to this coming year!

Ok.. enough text… the following photos are given to me by Amy Campbell. She took them and I did edits… It was about time to get rid of the photo of me that I had on my website. I was at the pumpkin farm, rolling my pumpkin away in a radio flyer wagon…. Don’t bother looking, it is already gone.

So thanks Amy, for taking a few pics while in San Diego! Even though I couldn’t be serious for any pics. I now give all of my clients such credit. It is definitely hard to be on the other side of the camera…. You all do such a good job!!! You rock!

By the way… the driver was in the taxi while I sat on the hood… and it also matches my shirt!
