I am trying to win a spot to The Love Affair workshop in Dallas.

I really, really, really, really want to go………….really.

I want a UNO DVD and a shot at the scholarship to the Love Affair Workshop! http://www.loveaffairworkshop.com

We are so excited to have a session featured on Groom Sold Separately! It is a very cool wedding blog with a style that I just can’t get enough of! If you haven’t checked it out yet, you definitely should! Bookmark it! Go back often.

Thanks so much for featuring Stacy and Bryan’s vintage anniversary session.  We couldn’t be more excited!

It’s a Texas thing.  Taking photos in the bluebonnets.  I know people from other states must think we are weird, but……well…..frankly, WHO CARES?  We enjoy it and that’s all that matters.  It’s a family tradition.

My brother was home last weekend on leave from the Navy.  He has just returned from deployment and it had been almost 10 months since he was home last.  You’ll have to ask him, but I would imagine that being in the Middle East on a ship for 9 months would make you a little homesick for Texas.  Taking a trip to see the bluebonnets in the Texas Hill Country was just the thing to cure that sickness.

I made a little video of our trip.  The video was taken with my newest toy the Digital Harinezumi 2.  It’s a cool little toy video camera that sorta recreates the look of super 8 film.  I’m HOOKED!

I’m so excited to share with you this recent session with Stacey and Brian.  They were celebrating their 4th wedding anniversary on the day that we shot this session.  They wanted something a little different and we were more than happy to accommodate that! I really wanted their session to be relaxed and romantic and for their personalities to shine through.  I think we may have achieved that!

For some reason as I was editing these this poem by Shel Silverstein kept running through my head.  I think it’s fitting, don’t you?

There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.

Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.

Yes we’ll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we’ll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
