<p>This month, November, marks my one year business anniversary. I truly love this business, well the business part maybe not as much! so glad to have a reliable account, but the photography part, I love immensely!</p>
<p>I am booked for 2008. I will begin to take 2009 photo sessions in February.  Look for changes to my website in January also; one will be my complete new price list posted.</p>
<p>I cherish my dreams of my business in the years to come.</p>
<p>Thanks! to all my clients, who made this first year such a joy for me!</p>

<p>these photos are from my family session last week. looky at these 2 handsome young men! i enjoyed my time so much with these guys and mom and dad! I like to engage the kids in some conversion during my time with them. This gets them relaxed and not so focused on the camera. I found out from this 6 year old at the top, that he &#8220;didn&#8217;t LIKE girls at ALL!&#8221; just the way he said it has stuck with me and I chuckle everytime I recall it&#8230; I told him I bet the girls LIKED him&#8230; I&#8217;m sure &#8220;girls&#8221; will be quite the topic in this family sooner than Mom and Dad are ready for them&#8230; <img src='http://ldlphoto.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>I don&#8217;t know how it&#8217;s possible that SO much personality is packed into this little body, but it just is. Yes, there are a few tears on her sweet face in this photo along with that most precious smile! She had a few different ideas about our photo session. I just love this photo of her &#8220;stealing&#8221; the show! She may have given me a run for my money but a little one this precious can&#8217;t get away without wonderful captures! It was worth every bit of work&#8230;</p>

<div class="entry-content">
<div class="entry-body">
<p>Oh God, as I bring my subject into focus and prepare to make each portrait, never let me forget that I&#8217;m creating treasures for some family, a keepsake for loved ones. Make me sensitive to the qualities and virtues of others, that I may draw out into the light the beautiful radiant belongings of their hearts.<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Help me to be an artist, collecting the beauty of every soul, the glow of youth, the gentleness, the laughter or tears of each life that is precious in Thy sight. Deeper than a means of livelihood, give me the perspective to see my photographer&#8217;s art as a service to others, making life richer and more memorable.</p>
<p>And, dear Lord, between the lights and shadows, the ups and downs and the rolling years, keep me from getting out of focus or off center, so that my life and work may be framed with dignity and colored with contentment &#8230;</p>
<p>AMEN</p>
<p>I always say a prayer when I head out to meet a family for a session. I ran across this prayer the other day on <a href="http://www.workofheart.typepad.com/">Skye&#8217;s</a> blog. (she is an amazing talented and famous child photographer)</p>
<p>This expresses just what I want to accomplish with each session.</p></div>
