A few weeks ago, I was honored beyond belief when I was awarded the 2008 Integrity Award from the Better Business Bureau. What a treat!
Check out this video of 'behind the scenes' at the studio.... kindly put together by the folks at A+ Media.
Emir and I took a few hours off tonight to pay homage to the state fair before it moves to Grand Island. So many colorful and fun things to take pictures of! Here are some of my faves from tonight....
I think this is my overall fave!
Our food intake tally for the night was: snow cone ($2.50), gyro sandwich ($6), kettle corn ($2), funnel cake ($6), and dippin' dots ice cream ($5). Total: 2,000,000 calories (give or take!)
Emir was bummed that his gyro didn't come on a stick... ha ha!
Ralph has been an invaluable addition to the team this season. Here he is on the job earlier this week.... (note his torn and tattered bottom side... poor baby is working hard!)
He makes a great hanging' spot too....
I gave in and bought THREE new covers for my shoot sac recently.... sometimes, you just have to spoil yourself... right? :) The ivory/black was getting old, I think the yellow with polka dots is my new fave. :)
I shot this one-handed, without looking, while holding Ralph with my other hand so he wouldn't blow away and leave poor Courtney stranded! Ha! Not bad, eh?
Mary snapped this pic of me on top of the ladder in my studio earlier today... ha ha!
On a completely random note... check out this spider web Emir and I came home to the other night.... it was HUGE!
Look at the sweet words Anna sent my way.... (click to enlarge) I told you she was an incredible spirit! :) Thanks again Anna.... you are a treasure!
Yes, yours truly makes a 3 SPREAD appearance in the current issue of Artful Blogging Magazine. AWESOME! You can check it out below. Click on the photos of the article to view full size (you can actually read it!) If you're die hard and want to pick-up a copy of the magazine, it's available at Barnes & Noble.
PS: Thanks to Brookie-pants for sending over the great close-ups of each spread... my copy hasn't come in the mail yet! Doh!
Emir and I are celebrating our 2-year anniversary today! We had to celebrate with another silly photoshoot.... to follow up on last year's shoot. Enjoy!
Boy oh boy... I don't get sick often... but when I do.... I go all out. The summer bug that's been going around made itself quite at home with me.... and I've been fighting it all week. Arg.
Hope you're happy and well!
Quite some time ago I received a phone call about lending my smiling mug to an ad campaign for Russ's Market. It was so long ago infact, that I completely forgot about it until people started telling me they saw me on a bus around town. How funny!
Wednesday (my birthday!) while on our way back to the studio during Molly's senior shoot, we passed a bus depot and look what was parked right in front of us! Ha ha ha!
Emir totally surprised me today and sent me flowers. It completely made my day. After a long, hard week.... it was just what I needed for a Friday pick-me-up. Thanks so much love! You are so wonderfully YOU! :)
Merki came home the other day after a pretty bad accident... not entirely sure what happened, but she's been in the vet hospital since Wednesday. We went to visit her this morning.... poor baby. Multiple skull fractures and a broken jaw (top & bottom).
We love you Merki! Get well soon... we miss our little stinker.
