Just wanted to quickly post some portraits from a recent Birthday Session that I thought were just darling. The photos are of Addyson Amick, daughter of Sabrina and Phil Amick of Williamson. She and I had such a great time at her session last month! She is such a sweet little girl and I wanted to share her beautiful images with everyone. Have a great weekend!!

Once


Over the weekend I got the chance to see the independent movie Once starring Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová. What a treasure!!! I loved it!!
It's the story of street busker and a Czech immigrant and their "whirlwind" week in Dublin, as they write, rehearse and record songs that tell their love story. This movie which premiered at the Sundance film festival and took the audiences by storm was created for a mere $160,000. (DIRT CHEAP by movie making standards) And, Hansard and Irglová won an oscar on Sunday for Best Original Song for the song titled "Falling Slowly." So, if you haven't seen it already, go check it out.

PS After watching the movie, I went to check out other music by Hansard and his band The Frames. Notable albums include: Cost, Burn the Maps and of course the Once soundtrack

Animoto Video

Well, it's apparently on a few more days away until Animoto releases an update to their amazing software. Their system was updated over the weekend in preparation for the new features which include higher res output, more controls to the content and a photographer's license . We are really excited about offering these shows to our clients. We have several ideas in the works for iTunes podcasts, myspace videos and DVD slideshows.
