Our Wall Gallery | Meadville Area Photographer

Friday, December 11th, 2009

Several months ago, I started planning a new wall gallery for our living room.  It took me most of those months to decide on which photos to use.  I had the general layout done for months and had even purchased several of the pictures, but kept putting it off and changing my mind on pictures and redoing the layout, etc.  One day I actually finalized it.  I laid it all out on my computer and bought the rest of the pictures for it!  Oh…the day those picture came in was an awesome day!  I was so pumped to see them all!!!  While Bryan was at work, I went to town measuring and putting my kids up all over the walls.  :-)  Well, the project is complete and I am quite happy with it.  Naturally, I had to take pics of it to share with you all ;-)

For those interested, I used all mounted prints and attached them to the wall using hook and loop fasteners.  It is peel and stick and super easy to use.  Sizes are as follows:

(3) 16×24, vertical

(6) 11×14, vertical

(4) 11×14, horizontal

(6) 8×10, horizontal

BTW, don’t mind the stockings or the mess.  Thanks for looking!!

Busy, busy!

I have been a slacker.  I’m sorry.  I know I should be updating more than I am and hopefully I will have some time to do that in the very near future.  Things are starting to wind down now, but it has been a whirlwind (a good one, though) of a few months!  I am nearly finished putting all of the last minute Christmas card orders in and I am finally getting around to doing my own cards.  I’m almost through editing all my sessions as well.  We had a Christmas party last weekend which was a BLAST and I am so glad we get that one grown-up night a year.  I love it so much!!!  Only a few more odds and ends to take care of and I am so looking forward to CHRISTMAS!

So, I will leave you with a little picture of the kiddos.  They are getting SO big and make me proud every day.  LOVE these two!

The M Family Sneak Peek | Meadville Area Family Photographer

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Here is the second family in Sunday’s shoot!  These two little girls were a bit shy at first, but so adorable!  Once they warmed up to the idea of a silly lady with a camera on her face, they did great.  In fact, K was quite the little model!  Granted, watching their beautiful cousins during their portion of the shoot probably helped, too. :-)

To the M family…it was great spending time with you!  I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

An S Family Sneak Peek | Meadville Family Photographer

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Over the weekend, I had four shoots and was blessed with amazing weather.  That is nearly unheard of at the end of November in NW Pennsylvania!  The fact that I was able to do all sessions without one bit of rain or snow is a major feat in itself!  Sunday was just beautiful.  The sun was out and temps hit 50!  I met up with the S family and Stephanie’s sister, Kris, and her family (working on the sneak peek and hopefully it will be up later this evening).  We started off at their house and made our way to a local trail, to the downtown area and then back to the trail.  We covered a lot of ground and got some good shots.

To the S family…it was fun as always!  I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!!!
