Finally Feeling Better!

Sorry for being so invisible online recently.. I've been really sick these past few days and I'm finally getting back to normal! First of all, I wanted to thank Jaime Windon (The Blond Photographer) for meeting me last week in D.C. - She is one of those people that you immediately love once you meet them. She's upbeat, fun, and not to mention an incredible photographer! I'm hoping to be able to second for her in some upcoming weddings this spring!

That's all for now! I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Yours Truly,

Sweet Caroline

My sister is a high school Junior and has been asking me to take her out for portraits.. When the temperatures went into the high 40's yesterday, I decided to take advantage of the gorgeous sunset and we hit the beach! Despite the cold, these pictures turned out looking like something from mid July! As we always do, we had a great time & I got to practice a little more of my sunset photography. This is known to photographers as the "wonder hours" when the sun falls to a certain angle in the sky and everything turns so beautifully golden! Here are some shots from yesterday - Beach Bliss Marathon Session information is in the works! <3 

This picture is exactly like my sister.. always laughing uncontrollably. She's a funny person!

As I always do, we shot a jumping picture.. It turned out to be one of my favorites!

Before we left, I grabbed this last shot of the tidal pools with the setting sun in the background!

Thank you all for your support! Can't wait to start shooting more sessions for 2009! I should be getting my new camera by the end of the week so check back for a first glimpse of it!

Yours Truly,
