It was a gorgeous evening on the beach. I recently had the pleasure to photograph Amy Kern Palmer, bodybuilder, beautiful Lady with a heart of gold! The beach shoot was fantastic, looking forward to more like this! So many great images, hope you enjoy!
In the days that I photographed Matt I found him balancing on a ladder talking on a phone and trying to figure out a way to keep animals out of someone’s attic. ” Interesting how he has an angel looking out for him and light near his mind”.

Ok so where the heck has the past two months gone? January had my mind in the clouds wishing for a place to renew. February came in with quite a storm as my whole family came down with probably was one of the nastiest viruses I’ve ever had in my life. In the middle of our plague I went to a local Doc-In-A-Box and after blood tests (for a sinus infection) I was told that my blood platelets were extremely low. Two days later I was sent a packet that said “Welcome to the Cancer Institute!”. I had a week to dwell on this possibility as the plague settled into my chest, whilst my toddler battled her second wave of ear infections and my husband became weak with congestion. I spent 4 hours at The Cancer Institute talking to the doctor and having 15 vials of blood drawn. I found out later that day that there may have been some mishandling of my blood at the Doc-In-The-Box (i.e. they goofed). I wasn’t angry, I was thrilled!
Think this was it? We were on our way to healthiness when my husband came home from work not feeling too hot (oh no!). That night our family welcomed in not only the 24 hour flu but also a broken toe as my husband was trying to make his way to the bathroom. We were very.jpg "nowayout1")
glad when February was over.
March has been spent getting myself back up, working on a new site and opportunities through the lens. So stay tuned – I’m going to crank up this baby full gear!

So glad y’all are feeling better!! And that platelet scare is awful. I would’ve been a hot mess.
Lately I’ve been yearning for open spaces, both physically and mentally. My mind needs a Vipassana Meditation retreat. There is some simplistic joy in carrying all of your belongings in a backpack and venturing out in the wilderness. No worries about paying the electric bill or the needless want of this and that. The only stress that you have is the physical pain of the blister forming on your foot. Being present, current, mind quiet allows me to tap into the deeper part of myself.
My husband lovingly tells me that even when we think negative thoughts about others we are actually projecting what we think of ourselves. At 17 months, my little girl tries to remind me every day to be present just by her actions. When that doesn’t work she brings out her favorite book, Peaceful Piggy Meditation (because even on a terrible, horrible, disgustingly rotten day, peaceful piggies can…smile). HA! Ever had a day like that?
So now the challenge, to myself and to all that read this. Try Metta Sutta (Universal Loving-Kindness). Be mindful of the light that we carry within and allow it to spill forth for all.
I think I’ll go for a walk…..

I love that book — it helps me so much to get back into the right space! (And helps my son too)
Do you have a Facebook account? Do you Tweet? How is your business ranking against others in Google Analytics? Going out with friends used to mean having a few drinks and talking about our last kickball game. Now its a “networking social event”. Laptops are everywhere and people are instant messaging each other across the room. We’re all trying to promote ourselves in one way or another, either our businesses or our groups or sometimes even our personalities through various social media outlets. If you find yourself wondering what all this Social Media talk is about then you really owe it to yourself to check out Social Media at The Beach (SMATB). Its a day long event dedicated to educating the public on Social Media. Do you have a Google Local Listing?
