Steve Irwin

I was so sad to learn of his death. Chris and I used to love watching him. Normally TV star deaths don't really affect me, but his did. Not only was he a warm-hearted person, but he was so full of life and enthusiam and of course a husband and father to amazing small children. Even though he had a very risky job and mission, his death was still a huge shock. I watched his memorial service last night and although it was very sad, it was also inspiring. I had a dream last night about animals, particularly wildlife. I felt compelled this morning to donate to his memorial fund which goes to the Wildlife Warriors.

A Bit About Me & Children's Photography

Welcome to my new blog! This is a great way to get to know me a little "behind the scenes" and any news I may have to share. You may also read a bit about my little ones. For those that don't know, I have 8 year old identical twin boys and a 2 year old little girl who is the center of our universe. And by "our" I mean, me, my husband and my sons. They adore her! Photography has long been a passion of mine as well as all forms of art, but after my daughter was born in 2004, I knew that it was something I really wanted to pursue. Children's photography clicks with me most. I enjoy interacting with children so much. They have such innocence and newness to the world. They are so sweet and non-judgemental. I love capturing the times when everyone is at their most beautiful, and to me, that's while you are a child. I also love capturing the interactions between children and their parents. The love and bonds they share is so profound. I want to be able to capture those precious moments in the most beautiful way. That is why I strive and work so hard on evolving as a photographer everyday.
