AMAZING cakes....

I have a really good friend that is a baker/cake decorator in her spare time (Cakes by Lisa Marie)...she is pretty much self-taught! OMG her cakes look amazing and taste great too! A few weeks ago, I took some photos of one of her cakes...the theme for it was YO GABBA GABBA...this cake was just too cute and I am sure the recipient of that cake was tickled! Today, she called me and asked if I can come over and photograph the newest creation...she said she feels this is her best work so far...I have to agree this cake was AMAZING!!!!

Buzzards

I have this fascination with buzzards...kinda strange huh??
Prob even stranger that I know some useless facts about them too?
Georgia has a few nicknames and "The Buzzard State" is one...
They roost in large numbers<---there are usually hundreds in the trees behind my house!
A group of buzzards is called a "Venue". 
Buzzards circling in the air are a "Kettle". <-----just cause they are circling does not mean there is a dead animal close by...sometimes they are just looking for food or playing!
I am determined to save enough cash to buy a good zoom lens for my camera...so I can get some cool photos of them. 
So until then, I will enjoy the photos that I have recently taken...















If I were reincarnated, I'd want to come back a buzzard. Nothing hates him or envies him or wants him or needs him. He is never bothered or in danger, and he can eat anything.

A day with the horses...

My friend, Lisa from "Cakes by Lisa Marie" called and wanted Sassy to come and get on the horses. Sassy was super excited!! We head out and go to the farm where Lisa keeps her horses...Sassy and Lisa's grandson had a blast until one horse still in the pen started jumping....which caused Lisa's grandson's ride to buck which made the horse Sassy was on buck too...
Sassy got bucked right off...she was fine! Cried for a couple minutes...it knocked the breath slap out of her. It scared the pee pee out of the grown-ups!! Sammi is ready to go again and Ms. Lisa told her soon as it's spring. Sassy has been asking "how much longer til Spring?" She is so ready to go and learn more about the horses!
I got some cute photos of Lisa's grandson and a couple of Sassy!!!

Sassy and her date...

So my girl, Sassy, went on her first "date" last month...the kiddos went to the Prince and Princess Ball! They looked so cute but in my head all I could see was my girl going to her senior prom...I was having that insurance commercial run through my head that has the teenagers in a car but they still looked like 5 yr olds in their parents eyes...and the dad is saying to not text and not this and that!!! I had the opposite reaction! I was seeing my kiddo grow up right in front of my eyes....any how here is the photos!!!







I am SLACK...

So, here I am on a Friday night sitting here BORED out of my head....I really should be working on photos. Just not in the mood :/ though!!! Then, it hits me I haven't written anything on my blog in a good minute!!! Hmmmm maybe I will write...Hmmmm I can't even remember the dang password to my blog...how sad is that??
Well, as you can see I figured it out....lol!!!!!!!!!!!
I have no clue what to write about and if any of you all do read my stuff then you know I will ramble about all and nothing! So let’s see where should I start???
Photography wise I am doing awesome and I am getting lots more work...
I got some cute photos of Sassy and her date for the Prince and Princess Ball…
I had an awesome day photographing Ms. Yvonne Harvey-Williams last month…
I puttered around the backyard and took some cool outside photos…
I caught Sassy blowing bubbles…
I got a few shots of my Honey one foggy morning…
I will post those photos in separate blog posts (they deserve a whole post each):0)
I have another photo shoot scheduled sometime in the near future…this chick is wanting to send my photos to Victoria’s Secret (how cool is that?) she has already submitted some BUT they wanted more! YAY ME!!!
I am so enjoying this weather and the fact everything is green!!

Out of the hospital and I had a photo shoot...

Well, my Honey is out of the hospital. I just gave him the last injection of his blood thinner. I give lots of praise to nurses. I am too shaky and a weak stomach for that!!! My honey is on the mend...it's a slow road!

Ok, so yesterday, I had an awesome photo shoot! It helps to get awesome people for clients! I have known Crystal for a good while...I watched her grow into the woman that she is today...she has had a few struggles over the last few years. She also has had many joys come into her life...One of the joys that she encountered is her BEAUTIFUL daughter...did I mention that she is BEAUTIFUL!!! OMG this child is a natural beauty and exudes innocence in the photos. Crystal recently got married and right now is a few days from having her beautiful son. We had been planning on doing photos before yesterday but life is busy and it finally happened yesterday.

Here is a sneak peek of Crystal, her hubby Matt and her beautiful daughter!

My girl is growing up...

Today when I got home from visiting Bob at the hospital, I checked my Facebook messages. There was one from a friend of mine...Her son was wanting my number so he could call Sassy. She said he was wanting to ask her to the Prince and Princess Ball next month. This dance is for the elementary school kids and the proceeds go to help with childhood cancer, if I remember right. Sassy hasn't been to school this week, So I haven't received the note yet.  Anyhow, I gave my friend Sassy's phone number...I had already gave Sassy the heads up that he was gonna call...He did and he asked her...she said "ummm sure"...I looked at her funny and then she said "I would really like to go with you." His mom said he was so nervous that he made her write down what to say so he wouldn't forget...aaaawwwww!!!!! I think the kiddos are super excited! Sassy done got out the dress she is gonna wear...he was wanting to know cause he wants to get her a corsage!!! AAAAWWWW! My girl is growing up so fast...it brought tears to my eyes. A bittersweet moment!!!
