Updates and McKinley and Noah

Ever have those times when you feel totally overwhelmed? Isn’t it the greatest feeling when you can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel? (Cliche, I know.)

I think I got myself in a little over my head in the last couple of weeks. Starting back almost a month ago, I had two photo sessions in one day. The next weekend, I had three family shoots. That following weekend (I think I’m at April 19th now), I was supposed to fly out to meet a friend in Virgina, but last minute, she couldn’t have me stay. It turned out to be okay (not just okay, but great!) because we got a call from a totally awesome couple to come and photograph an engagement session!

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to second shoot a wedding with the uber talented Christine and Elaine. On Monday, another totally awesome photographer, Stacy Reeves (who I assisted at a very exciting wedding last year), invited me on (my very first) Trash the Dress shoot.

Which leads me to today. Right now I’m typing this from my Blackberry in the car as we’re driving to Dallas. (Don’t worry, I’m not driving.). :p Isn’t technology awesome? (I’m probably going to find a ton of typos, misspellings, and realize the whole thing doesn’t make sense when I get to a computer.) Anyway, we’re driving to Dallas to for a family photo shoot and for our nephew’s 1st birthday!

I promise this whole blog had a point that tied into the first sentence. Obviously, I’m behind where I want to be because I’m just now blogging about the third photo shoot from April 13th. The reason I’m behind is that I had a total of four papers due at school since April 21st and photo shoots EVERY weekend! (I’ve been a wee bit stressed.)

The light at the end of the tunnel? Finals are this week, all my papers are completed, and I only need three more credit hours until I graduate with my Associate of Arts degree!

Throughout my return to school and a busier than expected wedding season, my dear Chad has patiently waiting by my side, helping out anywhere he can. He may be guest blogging again for me soon!

And now back to your regularly scheduled blog.

Adorable little Mckinley turned one! To help her celebrate, her Grandmother Pam flew in from from Pittsburgh and her aunt Liz and cousin Noah flew in from Washington DC! She’s such a special little girl!
Mckinley’s parents asked that Chad and I come and photograph their little daughter with her 4 month old cousin at Grandma Kathy’s house.
I had trouble narrowing down my favorites for the blog, but here they are, with commentary.

Mckinley is the happiest little girl!
