my love is pink bio picture

Hiya!

I'm Laurie! a 30-something domestic goddess-girly girl-photographer, I love the color PINK! In love with love and I like flan, it make me happy. I'm a total Coach whore! You should also know that I totally believe that a little bit of lip gloss and mascara goes a long way!

I've learned a few things about myself in the past few months, and the most important thing {so far} is that I CANNOT live without my camera, it has become a part of me. This little hobby has taken over my life and I couldn't be happier! I've still got lots to learn, I'm taking it all in and having fun with it.

Welcome to life... as {eye} see it!

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence. ~Ansel Adams

personal blog

just fyi, I have decided not to post any personal stuff on this blog. I’ll just use it to showcase some of my photography until the hosting comes due in feb. then I’ll be letting it go.

If  you’re interested in reading the personal blog, I’ll just need you to send me a comment on this post with a valid email addy and I’ll set you up with an acct. The new blog is members only. unless you’re related to me, then um… yeah… no. you don’t need to be reading my blog. sorry. heh.

thanks!

the carnations…

carnations get a bad rap. nobody likes carnations. everybody likes the roses, lilies or other prettier flowers out there. I happen to love carnations! they remind me of the 6th grade. lol

btw, i uploaded this to flickr with every intention of keeping this photo between us. me and you guys, but i forgot to set it as private on the flickr uploadr and so now it’s between me, you and the flickr world. lol

bubbles

I had no clue that Roxanna was scared of bubbles till saturday. I sure wish I had some “behind the scenes” shots! You should have seen her running from the bubbles! OMG. so funny. Let me just tell you something, photographing bubbles is NOT an easy thing to do. I got like maybe 2 good shots out of 200! LOL Those little buggers travel fast for my fat ass! After a few minutes of really getting into the whole bubble shooting thing we realized that Roxy was missing! We look over the fence and she’s hiding next to it scared outta her mind because of the bubbles! poor thing.

Anyway, here’s one of the 2 shots I managed to get. All that hard work was worth it! I love this shot!

a fresh start

I decided saturday that I wanted to delete the blog and start over. What a hassle THAT was. I spent a few hours emailing back and forth with my host till finally we figured out what it was I did that screwed everything up! {cause you know damn well it was ME! haha}

LOL You probably won’t see very much personal stuff here, I just don’t have the patience to lock down the blog for the personal stuff, ya know? Mainly just some of my “photography” work and a few little short stories here and there.

Hopefully everything looks fine on your end. It looks fine on firefox and safari on the imac, but no clue how it renders on windows! I’m hoping this will keep me motivated to blog at least till Feb. when my hosting fees are due, then we’ll see from there. BUT That’s getting wayyyy too ahead to even think about.

Oh and before I forget! The background! I KNOW! I tried to do a seamless background, but that didn’t work out too well, as you can tell! Just pretend you don’t see those lines all over the place.. mmmkay? lol And if your OCD is kicking in full force like mine is, just close your eyes and count to 10! It helps a little! LOL

Just wanted to share some photos of my girls. I wanted to get a few shots of them together, but Roxy wasn’t having any of it. booo! snoopy on the other hand is always up for a little session with my camera! She’s a good lil doggie!

And DUDE! I have my first newborn session scheduled for this coming weekend! OMG! I’m so EXCITED about that. I have so many ideas about what I wanna do with this, you don’t even KNOW! I’ll be sure to share some from the session here!

Roxanna! she hates the camera!
