one in the morning and i can't sleep...

i had a headache earlier today and slept
for 2 or more hours...
and now, i can't sleep...
the rest of the house is silent
other than my night owl boy
up in his room watching tommy boy
and playing with lego...
and i am downstairs at the computer
editing pictures...
i did a newborn session last week
and this is one of the shots from it...
i love it but i wish i would have been a little
more comfortable with asking for different shots...
i was nervous and didn't want to push too hard...
but i am happy with the shots i got,
i just kept thinking after of
what i could have done....

self confidence.
i need to find some more of that.

i do...





i have been editing like a madwoman for the past 4 days...
finally done...lovvvved these pictures!!

one more wedding this weekend and then things will be back
to normal...well, except for school starting...and my birthday...
and then i have two more weddings the second weekend
in September...

life is full...and good.

suddenly sunday...


and so here it is
sunday already....

after a painful bladder infection
got the best of me,
i got medicated only to find
that the medicine made me vomit
and gave me a 2 day pounding headache...

all this right before a wedding to shoot.


but it worked out fine
and i feel better
and the wedding was
fan-tas-tic....
seriously.

how could i be unhappy when the bride
called for a step ladder so she and new-hubby
could get up on top of a bale of hay
at sunset for pictures...
can't wait to post these!!

looking forward to a better week
with lots of catching up...
and if i owe you an email,
i'm so sorry...but i'm back on track now!

tuesday truths...


~i feel bloated, hot, a little cranky, don't feel like
leaving the house but have to, really just want to
go back to bed...

~my heart broke last night as i read this post...
{which makes me mad at myself for feeling the above...}

~i have blisters on my hands from mowing the lawn.

~i am nervous about the wedding
