Busy, busy -- and birthday!

Wow, business is booming this year! I am so excited and grateful to all that have contacted me to help capture part of their lives, be it kids, families, christmas pictures, it is all truly an honor. When I first conceived the notion to actually start Magic Moments, it was a terrifying proposition. I mean, I thought I had talent, and I knew I had drive and the will to want to succeed, but really, did anyone else agree with me? The first time anyone paid me for taking their pictures I wanted to go roll on the floor and giggle like an idiot. The funny thing is, with a year under my belt and a lot of beautiful people that have given me this opportunity, I still feel that way!

At any rate, I'll stop waxing poetic. I have Maggie's final day of senior pictures in the editing room. She is such a fun gal, and I can't wait to post some of the awesome indoor and urban shots we did.

I also had the Devillez family in for family pictures, Ms. Lydia's three year pictures, and the Christmas Card picture. This awesome family was actually the first ones to hire me that I mentioned before -- and they came back this year! It does help that Chris is one of my oldest and dearest friends, and Kyndal's godfather, and he had the good sense to marry Beth Ann, an amazing woman, mom, and friend. Our girls are stair stepped -- Erin 4, Lydia 3, and Kyndal 2. As Beth Ann pointed out at Kyndal's weekend birthday party -- wait until they are 13, 14 and 15. I think I got a few extra gray hairs when she mentioned that. Thanks, Beth Ann!
The Devillez custom designed Christmas Card....

And, because Erin thinks she needs to have her picture taken with everyone that comes in....
And, finally, a few shots of my beautiful two year old girl. Love you, Kyndal Mae!

And, look at this amazing cake, made by my aunt Susie! She has made all of the girls' cakes and outdoes herself every year. Kyndal was sooo excited to see her mouse cake as she is an avid Mickey Mouse Clubhouse fan. Thanks and love to you, dearest aunt -- and yes, for anyone who wonders, she does make wedding cakes and birthday cakes to order ;-)
