Booking family sessions for September. E-mail me for details.

I have had so many people ask me if I will put on a "mommy" workshop.  This is for amiture photographers only.  It will be held on August 31st, from 10-1.  Do you want to know how to use your camera better?  How to engage with your subjects?  How to find the best light?  Bring your point and shoot, your dsl, or your poloroid.  Each person will get one-on-one time with me and your camera to cover and explain settings.  It will be a GREAT time, and you will walk away knowing more about how to capute great images of your friends and family.  The fee is $75.00 and I must have at least 5 attendees to hold the class.  So call your girlfriends and let's party!

Need a "Moment" with me?

Q&A...  I will be doing a question and answer on my blog on August 18th.  If you are interested in having ANY question answered e-mail me at mbk@me.com.  It can be anything from client interaction, to how to get the right exposure.  Ask me ANYTHING!

Have a Merry Christmas!!!

As a mother (and as a wedding photographer) I often project ahead and wonder what things will be like when my children get married…

We went to a really fun event put on by my husbands company (The Sports Academy) called “Breakfast with Santa”. It is typically the only chance my kids get to see Santa during the holiday seasons (I am not patient enough for the line at the mall!). My little boy is very shy and these experiences have not always been pleasant (i.e. he HATED SANTA). So, before we went I really tried to prepare my 2 1/2 year old little girl. I told her all about what was going to happen and that Santa is nice and how we set on his lap and tell him what we want for Christmas, bla-bla-bla. Never did I imagine the way things would go down!

So, when we arrive, she sees him and starts yelling HI SANTA, so we rushed in and she hopped up on his lap – NO PROBLEM!!! I take a couple of pictures, and try to listen as Santa talked to her about being a good girl and being nice to her brother. Finally we get to the part where he says, “What do you want for Christmas?” She says loud and clear “I want to have your baby”. He started laughing, and I started laughing, and I could not run over there quick enough to say, “Um, she means a baby!” I love Santa! However, I never looked at the big guy like that before! I do not want him as a son-in-law!!! She still tells people that Santa is going to bring her his baby!

I have had a busy, productive, and fun December! I have not been blogging like I normally do, but tis the holiday season!!! I am so excited, and anxious for the new year to come, but looking so forward to the rest of the holidays. I wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!! For those of you who did not get a Christmas card from me, her is one to enjoy!

I will be out of the office until January 5, 2009. Wow, 2009! Where does time go.

I decided to clean instead and I used your basket trick. It worked like a charm. Got my whole upstairs done in 2 hrs. Doing it every time and my kids had a GREAT time helping! Thanks and Merry Christmas!
