... and as always HE listened!

We had an AMAZING family day out at Mingo Park! The weather was GREAT, it was a BEAUTIFUL day .... I prayed for nice weather and it worked!

Check out little Ty, his parents and their pup ... SO MUCH FUN! I purchased this awesome geen couch just for family day and drug it out to the park with Laura (no easy task!) in my husbands truck. I had to tie it down too LOL..... I could just see the brand new couch falling off the truck and landing on the way to Mingo somewhere! WE HAD SO MUCH FUN! I want to thank ALL the families that came! (Including little Ty and his family!)

We have been SUPER busy at the studio and I for one am LOVING it! This week we had babies, families, seniors and pups! I LOVE how different everyday is for me here!!!

Much love y'all! ENJOY the fall..... it's so nice out!

Haven't had a family portrait done in a long time? Well what are you waiting for? It's not too late! We are REALLY looking forward to doing WINTER family portraits in January too! Let it SNOW! Be different! Have your family photographed outside in the snow! It's SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!

A photographers Prayer :)

Dear God,
Tomorrow I have 8 families to photograph in the park - as if you didn't already know! :) I am asking for no rain, no wind and not too cold or hot weather. I am asking that all goes as planned that parents smile and children behave (LOL) I am also asking that all dogs sit still enough for some great portraits and that the fall leaves haven't all fallen off the trees YET (with all the rain we have had) and that they are STILL plenty colorful. Oh! And I am asking for no mud! Laura and I are excited to photograph at Mingo tomorrow and appreciate your full cooperation ;)
Amen ;)
Love, Maria

Cirque de Soleil

Had the divine opportunity to photograph Cirque de Soleil last night at the Peterson Events Center for the local papers :)
It is amazing to watch these performers and to think of their dedication and talent.
If you haven't seen this show, I HIGHLY recommend it! Worth every cent! (And NO, I don't get paid to say that!) Just thought I'd share! Enjoy!
