I | FACES WEEK 8 | HANDS-ON FUN

Ok... so here's my "hands-on fun" entry for this week. I'm sure most of you will look at it and think... "ok" and move on the the next entry. I know it's not GREAT, but it sure has some meaning to me. This is my son and he is a PICKY eater!!!! If it's not all of the unhealthy foods... he won't try it. Last month I took him and my daughter to the strawberry farm to pick berries. After watching Brooke pick away he wanted to pick too. So I let him thinking he would throw it on the ground or squish it in his tiny hands. He held it forever and then the little booger put it in his mouth and devoured it. I was so happy! Yet, he hasn't done it again. :( When your are done here... go on over to I HEART FACES to check out all the other entries!

Miss S | Tampa Family Photographer

I am thrilled to have been asked by some of our dear friends to photographer their sweet daughter and their family. We met this morning over at UT. Miss S wasn't too thrilled with having a camera in her face... but I got some really great candid moments! Thanks Simon and Erika for making the trip over! It was great having lunch and catching up with you guys!
Here are 2 Sneak Peeks for you until I can get to the rest!

I | FACES WEEK 7 I WANNA DANCE

When I saw the theme for this week I knew exactly which photo I wanted to use. I just didn't realize how long ago I took this... 2 1/2 years ago to be exact. Boy has my little girl grown up! *sniff sniff* I took this at a birthday party that was at a dance studio. She had the best time! After you've checked this out (and have left some LOVE :)) go over to I heart faces to see the other entries!

Calling ALL High School Juniors!!!! Looking for Senior Reps for Class of 2011

Now is the time to start thinking about your senior pictures. Do you want the same ole studio shots or something different, fresh and funky?

Well, I am looking for some PHENOMENAL students to be my reps.

If you will be a high school senior graduating in 2011, you could be chosen to receive LOTS of cool stuff. During the next month I will be looking for a couple students each from the following local high school: Alonso, Armwood, Blake, Bloomingdale, Brandon, Chamberlain, Freedom, Gaither, Hillsborough, Jefferson, King, Leto, Plant, Robinson, and Sickles. As my Senior Reps, you will pass out small cards with your photo and my info on them to your friends at school.

I'm so looking forward getting this program off the ground and running this year! I can't wait to work with some COOL Seniors who want unique, beautiful images!

Looking for new locations | Tampa photographer

Alright all you "blog stalkers" out there... hehehee... I need some new locations to shoot! I've done UT, downtown, Ybor, Pass-a-grille beach... I want someplace fresh! Though not too far from South Tampa (is that too much to ask? LOL! I know I may be pushing it.) Maybe the country, a cool field, a funky barn? So here's the skinny! If you see something you like (doesn't have to be the country- think out of the box) take a few shots with your point and shoot and send them my way. Your deadline is February 10th. We'll take a look at them and pick the coolest one. If your location is selected, you will receive half off your sitting fee and 15% off your order! So get going, get clicking... can't wait to see what you come up with.

And here's my favorite shot of Brooke in Ybor City! It made it to the jumbo tron in NY Time's Square this past October!
