SWEET SOUNDS

Ok it is not often that a mom gets to brag so here goes....My son, Harrison (the drummer) and his friends have a band and after many weeks of practice, they had their first "gig" New Years Eve. They sounded great and everyone had a great time. Here are some photos from the big show. By the way they still need a name, can anyone help them pick one?

How exciting... I am running my first ad in the Rosemary Thymes. They also featured photo I took this summer with some adorable kids and my friend Stacy's daughter Annie as this issues featured artist. What a cool issue for me...If you are visiting the gulf coast feel free to pick one up.
Enjoy!

NEW STUDIO!!!

Finally, I have a new studio with some very cool "one of a kind" backdrops.

A few weeks ago my friends daughters, Caroline and Elizabeth came over and we spent time in the new studio taking tons of photos...Here are some of the shots and some of the new fun backdrops I now offer. I still will carry kaki, blue and other standard but give these new backdrops a whirl... color and design can really look amazing.

There will be many packages offered and at least 3 backdrops per session. So check out the new studio next time you want something bit different.

A NIGHT ON THE TOWN WITH MY SON AND THE JONAS BROTHERS

WOW!!!! What can I say a night out with my son and some friends at a terrific concert. What joy I saw on my sons face, even while he was holding his ears from the girls screaming as the Jonas Bros. took the stage. The music, sets, lighting everything was any kids dream and it was apparent that they got a terrific welcome here in AL. My son took in every moment as I had the pleasure of watching him do so!

I thought seeing David Cassidy when I was little was "it" but seeing the Jones Bros. with my son beat that hands down. I am so fortunate to have this memory. A fun VIP sound check followed by second row seats, it doesn't get much better than this and I want to thank sweet Denise and Julie for all that they did to get us in!

Great concert and great positive message for young kids! Check them out if they happen to be in your city!

We were limited as to what photos we could take but wanted to share some with you.
