Me & My Guy Dance

May 14, 2008

On Friday night I photographed the Me & My Guy Dance that was run by the Girl Scouts. It was such a great night.

All these little girls, dancing the night away with that Special Guy. Little ones were stepping on the shoes of their Guys and being twirled around the dance floor. It was truly one of the cutest things I have seen in a long time.

I was lucky enough to watch my own little girl dancing with her “Guy”. It was such a magical night.

Celebrate with Me

May 13, 2008

Are you like me? Do you have that one person in your life that no matter what goes on, they are there for you?

When you’re sad, they are sad? When you’re glad, they are glad? They tell you just the way it is. You know they won’t let you walk out of the house looking like something from a horror movie.

Well I have that someone. She wasn’t always my best friend. As a matter of fact, I’m sure there have been more than one occasion that she would have preferred to donate a kidney than to hang out with me. Luckily for me, my mother made her play with me!

That person is my sister Jenn, and today I get to be proud of her. I get to celebrate for her, I get to congratulate her. I love that I can do this for her because she has always done so for me. (other than when she’d rather donate a kidney of course)

Jenn was offered a job today at a realtor’s office. You see she studied, and studied, and studied some more. She took the realtor’s test and passed!

Jenn I am so proud of you. I thank you for always being here for me. I have always looked up to you, and admired all that you have done.

I love you and am proud to call you my sister and my friend.

love,
Jacq

Happy Mother’s Day

May 11, 2008

Happy Mother’s Day to all you Mom’s out there. I hope you’re enjoying the day that is meant just for you!

I had a wonderful day. Slept in this morning, I don’t think I even got out of bed until after 10am. Who can argue with that?

We went to The Cafe On The Oval for brunch. The food was delicious, i had an omelet and the kids and Scott got all sorts of goodies. We realized 2 hours after we left that Evan left his walrus’ and his new Teddy Bear there. Unfortunately they were already closed so we have to get them tomorrow.

I’m home now, sitting here, relaxing, and enjoying my gorgeous Pandora bracelet that Scott and the kids bought me.

I hope you had a good day too!

Just One For Now!!!

May 5, 2008

Hey Ellen,

Thanks for having me over today. Little Miss Curly Q was such a doll. Here is one picture for now. Once I get the rest of them proofed I will send you an email with your password.

I felt so guilty for pulling out of the driveway. I wanted to come back into the driveway and give little B another high five! He was still waving to me as I drove off.

I am so excited to share that Lisa Zanchi is coming to my studio to do a lighting workshop. It’s going to be a blast. Here is the information on the event……

…………………………………..

When: June 28th

Where: Jacqueline Nauyokas’s studio in Mildford, NH

Cost: $150/person due at time of registration.

Information: This workshop is for 10 people. We will learn the basics of studio lighting, everything from high key to low key. I’ll teach the basics of exposure and how to use a light meter. We’ll learn how to use 1-3 lights to accomplish depth and interest. Learn how to properly use a main/key light, hair light, and kicker/accent light. We’ll also create several looks out of 1 background using light positioning. I’ll also go over my post-processing at the end of the day.

and boy am i happy….

We have had a few bouts of the stomach bug, and i’m sick and tired of sick and tired kids!

I had all sorts of plans in my head as to the wonderful, special week we were going to have. But with the bug and all the chaos it reaped in my house, we were confined to our home. So i was more than happy to sneak out and take the kids to see Iron Man at the movies tonight.

I know it’s pg-13 and the kids I took were all 10 and under, we really enjoyed it and had a good night out. We had popcorn, crunch a munch, nachos and soda. Who could be unhappy with all of those snacks? (well technically the kids had all of that, but i did get to sample)

So no pictures with this post, just posting to post!

Hope you had a good week and I’ll be posting some pictures of the studio progress tomorrow or Sunday.
