Guess what I'm doing this weekend?
I'll give you *one* hint.....
It's our first official wedding of the season -- yahoooooo!!! Stay tuned for more shots of Meredith & Ben's big day.... (By the way, the wedding isn't until tomorrow.... but being the sneaky girl that I am, I found my way in early to get a preview shot!)

Lunch with a really cute guy.
A couple of days ago, I had lunch with a VERY
cute guy....
.....my main man, Jackson James! Isn't he a cutie? My wonderful friend Jessica came out to visit a few days ago, and had her little man in tow -- I can't believe how big he's getting. Before they arrived, I went through the whole house and put away everything that might be dangerous or tempting for a little guy -- I was so proud of my excellent baby proofing! And about 5 minutes after he got there, he grabbed a big lamp in the living room and almost knocked himself out with it. Sigh. It appears that my baby proofing skills need some serious improvement..... :)
This was the safest place for him....strapped in to highchair jail. He doesn't look very amused:
And here he is, snacking on my logo for dessert....mmm, tasty!

and sorting out some exciting new changes that will be coming very soon! Here's
a little hint: get ready to update your bookmarks/rss feeds..... In the
meantime, here are Casey & JT:

Stephanie & sunflare.
While we were out at the Love Affair workshop, my
fabulous new pal Stephanie wanted to have some sweet portraits
taken on the beach. So a couple of us trooped through the sand and the wind
down to the beach to shoot some shots. Of course, being a fellow photographer,
Stephanie knew exactly what she wanted and she made no bones about demanding
(DEMANDING!) that we shoot sun flare images....
Just kidding. She just really liked the late afternoon light. So, Miss Stephanie, here's your flare!
p.s. Don't watch for too long or you may become severly dizzy. I am not responsible for anyone who watches too long and tosses their cookies on the keyboard.

We won!
The WPJA just released the winning images from their
Q4 wedding photography contest and we nailed another award!
Yahoo!
I'll admit it. I'm not shy. I looooooove to win. Especially when the competition is so fierce, and the quality of work submitted by WPJA photographers worldwide is so high, and the judges are so talented and well-respected.
And of course, when it means I get a shiny little ribbon next to my name.
Here's the winning image from Amy & Tom's wedding this past fall in Ocean City, Maryland. Amy was a ROCKstar -- it was so cold and windy that day....

A little music, a little photos...coming on April 1st.
My pal, the fabulous and
oh-so-incredibly-talented Eric Himan just came out with another rockin' cd
-- Resonate. It won't be released until April 1st, but if you like my images
(you know you love 'em!) and if you like the song on our website (of course
you're crazy about it!), you can be pretty darn sure you'll love this cd...
because it's got both of the above! We did the shoot on one of the hottest
days in July on the streets of Philadelphia. Despite the sticky conditions, it
ended up being such a fun day, and I'm so proud to be part of the final
product.
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a few copies of the disc before the rest of the world sees them, so I thought it'd be fun to give you all a little sneak peek! Here are a few shots of the case.... I didn't want to spoil the surprise for you all, so I didn't shoot all of the images. Big kudos to the man Will Boyd for his excellent design work.
If you want to pick up a copy of the disc, mark your calendars for April 1st, and go to http://www.erichiman.com.

my love affair with bald head island
I spent last week out at the Love Affair workshop
on Bald Head Island and I'm still amazed at how many amazing photographers I was
there with!
This was our view just before the ferry headed out for the island. Not too shabby, right?
The island is pretty small, but it's much too big to walk so the Love Affair crew hooked us all up with golf carts to get around.... There were a few broken cart incidents throughout the week, but nothing a little shoving couldn't fix. Here's the fabulous Anne Ruthmann taking her cart for a walk.
I found this old volleyball net just off of Cape Fear. I love the desolate feeling in this shot.
Kate Harrison lived next door to us in the party house -- here she is rockin' a crazy yoga pose on the beach! Kate and I gave each other invisible manicures on our last night. Tip: Don't ever put lotion all over your hands and then try to polish your nails.
April and I drove out to the market one morning and broke out the camera for an impromptu shoot on the checkout counter before we left.
We all drove out the lighthouse one afternoon for a housemate shoot. Here are Maari, Candi, and Caroline -- all photographers by trade, all models by force (and they did an incredible job, don't you think?).

On the road!
For once, my flights actually all departed on
time (or close enough....I only had to sprint to one boarding area), and I just
arrived in North Carolina Saturday -- I'm here attending a photography workshop
on Bald Head Island, and visiting my sister and her family for a few weeks. So
if you need to reach me, email is the best option for the next few weeks. I'll
do my best to check voicemails, but I have a feeling the cell reception won't be
great on the island.
When I walked into the house on Saturday, Alex (my niece) saw my fuzzy winter hat and scarf and just had to see how warm they were.
I'll try to post some shots from the workshop, so check back in the next few days!

Happy Valentine's Day!
I'm a lucky lucky girl. I get to go out for
dinner tonight with this
guy!:
He's kind of a hunk, no? :)
What will YOU be doing for Valentine's Day?

Annie.
Yesterday morning I did a little impromptu photo
shoot with miss Annie, who was in town visiting for the weekend. It was really
icy out, and kind of chilly so we didn't stay out too long, but we did find some
great old round bales to play hide n' seek in and Annie was kind enough to whip
up a big pretend pizza for me in her pretend outdoor kitchen. Not a bad way to
spend a winter Sunday morning....
She's got hands down one of THE best pouty faces I have ever seen, and she's not afraid to use it.
Annie came up with this pose (oh yes...including that perfectly angled hat) all on her own -- she's kind of a mini rockstar.
Bacchus was more into finding mice than he was in finding Annie, but.....he's a dog, so I suppose that's okay.
To the triple A's: Thanks guys -- it was a fun little shoot! Hope you had a very safe and not-so-slippery trip home. :)
