.this past holiday weekend my hubs, daughter and i took an impromptu vacation.  friday my hubs and i spent our 5 year anniversay in New York City, Saturday we took our little one to the Norwalk Aquarium to get her acquainted with all the real fish and sharks she loves from her books.  more on this trip in a future post, hopefully sooner than later.  i still have tons to post about and over the next two weeks will be catching up.  my last wedding until September is next weekend, though i will be working on some other photography projects here and there that are not quite so physically demanding of a seven month pregnant photographer :) here are some other pics from the Dog Day event i participated in earlier this month, that i should have posted long ago.  i have an engagement to post and wedding as well and I have a family shoot this Friday that i am looking forward to…i can’t wait to share lots more with you :)  

P.S – for you local blog lurkers out there…keep an eye out in the local papers for an article about this years Dog Day held by Impressions of Saratoga and a pic of the event by yours truly.  if you happen to see one, please leave me a comment to let me know!

.i have so much to catch up on here on my blog…this past week i had a nasty head cold that knocked the energy right out of me.  needless to say the tylenol, my one and only cure all while pregnant, did not do all that much to relieve my symptoms, so i had to rough through it and thankfully feel mucho better right now.  i still have to post about my Dog Day, an engagement session and now I have a new wedding i shot today that I just can not wait to share with you all.  i had so much fun today it makes me realize how much i absolutely adore what i do and how i am going to miss being out there and shooting for the next few months while i wait for the new little addition to arrive and get comfortable being part of this world. lots to post and hopefully i will have enough time this week to post about it all. 

hope it is warm and sunny where you live…until, well….soon ;)

Cheers! 

.i have a lot to do these next few days, playing catch up from a busy weekend.  i had a headshot session for an attorney’s office on Friday and Saturday was Dog Day which turned out to be a really fun day with a great turn out despite the weather being a bit chilly and damp.  thankfully though the rain held off for the day and lots of little and big pups came out to play and have thier picture taken.  these two are just quick sneak peeks…there are lots more to come when i get them edited this week before sending some off to the printers. 

. i have an engagement shoot tonight that i can not wait to do.  it is going to be a blast and i can’t wait to show you pics from the session when they are ready.  i’m off to get more editing done and galleries together and online.  i also have to post some info on my senior sessions soon….lots to come this week…hopefully i won’t burn out too quickly!

.tonight is one of those nights that i just can’t get to sleep…too much to do to get organized for shoots this weekend, photos i want to edit but have not yet gotten to, ideas cycling through my head for upcoming sessions.  i have yet to find the time to take any decent maternity shots…i am about 6 months pregnant now and all is well….just sleepy by the end of the day.  i find that lately i totally work off adrenaline and can’t make it through a day of work or play no problem, but the next day if nothing is going on all i want to do it sleep.  i am totally ready to get this kid out of me!

.in an effort to slow down a bit, i picked up a book at Barnes & Noble titled Inner Simplicity: 100 Ways To Regain Peace and Nourish Your Soul by Elaine St. James…though I have yet to find a moment to slow down and start to read it. hopefully i will find a moment this weekend to curl up with it and relax a bit before another editing rush next week. i can’t wait to get back into yoga again too, i have been trying to find the time to do it on my own at home, but there is something I just find truly relaxing by having someone guide me through the poses in a class. soon…

. well, off to bed for now….i have a shoot this afternoon, some friends coming over later and have to prepare for the Dog Day charity shoot on Saturday!  if I don’t get the chance to post again this weekend….hope you have a good one!

…i’ll have a bunch of session & studio sneak peeks for you next week!
