GRAND OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT

Hello, all — you are officially invited to the ESSENTIAL IMAGERY GRAND OPENING evening at the loft, 122 E. Lancaster Avenue, in Wayne. Please do come, enter yourself to win fabulous Essential Imagery prizes, gift certificates from my favorite local vendors, eat goodies from the one and only Sweet Jazmines, and view the tremendous amount of work we’ve done to create a gallery space!

To summarize:

Essential Imagery Grand Opening

122 E. Lancaster Avenue, 3rd floor

Wayne, PA 19087

5 – 9 p.m. All the cool kids will be there. And they’ll be winning stuff.

On to an image…. Not a single thing in this image is in focus. And oh, dear God, I heart it…shot out the golf cart while zipping around Bald Head Island and learning my brains out.

UPDATE

I am back from Learnfest on Bald Head Island, overwhelmed with information and ever so happy to have made the journey. To learn from utterly talented, wildly successful photographers is a thrill and an honor.

Thanks so much for being patient with your order processing while I’m off traipsing the globe!

Today, I am thankful for:

a day off.

a long nap.

utterly magnificent food.

a certain baby’s baptism, and the homemade (!) cake that followed.

having an 8-month-old boyfriend instead of a kid of my own. (For now, people!)

being at the fun part of opening the loft — decorating!

the love and support of one MattMatt.

and being allowed to play Spore on someone else’s computer, because my video card is ancient and hurts just *thinking* about having to load that game. :)

THEY GROW LIKE WEEDS, I TELL YOU.

Every time I see these two, they’ve grown six inches and have all sorts of new talents to show off…Isabel is two already! And Rafael plays soccer, where he says he scored 260 goals at a game this morning. {Or maybe three — three is good!}

I will be out of town until Friday for a workshop, so if I’m slow returning your phone calls or e-mails, know that I’m on the beach, sipping margaritas learning, and will get back to you as soon as I can.

MS. DANGER

1st up: There are FOUR wedding spots left for the ‘09 season. So if you’re bein’ all wishy-washy, get on that. And tell your friend who’s engaged but procrastinating about booking a photographer because she’s holding out to see if someone supremely gifted but willing to sell wedding coverage on Craigslist for $199 comes along. (They won’t. I promise.)

2ndly: Ms. Danger. She’s adorable, she’s spiffy, she’s…a total tomboy. Ninja and secret agent are on my shortlist of career possibilities for Miss Olivia.

Don’t let the cuteness fool you — unless you are a garbage can with something metal and likely to cause tetanus sticking out of you, she has no interest in your existence.

Those eyelashes? Off the hook!

LOVESHOOT!

Yup, you read it right…a teeny tiny break from kids to bring you…love. :) These two haven’t set a wedding day yet, but kindly requested engagement photos. Vince proposed to Sarah at an Eagles game, so this was appropriate. (There wasn’t any ‘She said no’ jersey. I asked.)
