out of order....A preview for Jocelyn:

A B and RCAR -I- Family Photography

Alicia is a friend of mine who I will always hold close to my heart. She was my very first roommate. We moved into our apartment 1 month out of high school. We have had a lot of ups and downs, and were AMAZING friends because of it. A LOT of my favorite memories are with her! She much like me, grew up and started a family. Her and Benito and an ADORABLE little boy, Riley. We've already decided that our little ones need to get married when they are older so that our kids will have awesome in-laws.  Thats all besides the point...This fantastic family now lives in NY....and they came to visit. We HAD to do pictures....

Life has been crazy...

Not in my wildest dreams did I image I would pick up a camera and fall in love with photography the way I did. EVEN MORE, not in my wildest dreams did I image so many people would fall in love with MY photography. I love it. I have been soooooooo busy with it. I still have my 8-5 job. BUT someday I hope that I can do photography full time. For now I am saving and investing my photography money on my business. I bought a new website..have you seen it?

My time has not been busy JUST spending!!! I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY with photo sessions, working on the website, NOT updating my blog (SORRY...i'm fired!) did I mention raising two young kids, plus taking care of my husband and the house. I wouldnt trade it all in for anything!!! I LOVE IT!!!!
