Windows 7 and more

It seems to be a while since I have had a chance to post any new pictures on here. For that I am deeply sorry but it seems since March I have been none stop busy. Just like my chineese horoscope 2009 has turned out so far to be a really good year for me.

Did you know there is a new windows program? Yep Windows 7 its free for now which means its still beta but so far it rocks. Its a little bit of Win XP mixed with a little Mac and less Vista which I like. So far its running smooth it runs Lightroom 2.3 (which I am now using and learning), and Photoshop CS3.

They have these gadgets where you can have them on your desktop which is where I am typing this post as we speak. Now I wont forget to keep blog updates since clearly its on my desk top. I like the post it notes no more pieces of paper all over my desk for me to lose.

It took me 9 hrs to install the program only because I have a lot of programs I use for my editing where as it only took my husband 5 hrs go figure. So far its pretty solid program, love the smoothness of the design the themes are really cool. OH forgot to tell you that. Windows has themes and it changes its picture every so many minutes or so you can go online and get other themes. Right now my theme is Scottland and its beautiful.

Well I am off to clean the house and enjoy the weekend. If you are a mom, soon to be mom Happy Mothers Day or have a mom take the time to wish them all a Happy Mothers Day as well.

Will post pictures soon so many to show you that I know you will just love!

Happy Birthday to ME!

Today is my birthday! I turn the big 32, its hard to believe its been 13 yrs since high school, I am a mom to a teenager and I am barely into my 30's. The twenties were great but loving the 30's as well! Don't know how happy I will be when I hit 40 but for now I am happy and life has treated me good!

Below is a picture of a photo purse that I am getting for my birthday. My husband said I could get either the purse or some clothes and weight heavy on the clothes idea. Me being a women went for the new purse ;) For a year now I have had the web site saved the image planned and knew exactly what bag to get! So come tomorrow I am ordering this baby! It takes 2-3wks to receive it so hopefully it will come sooner!

This is also added in my Specialty item list so if you like this and want a picture I have taken of your beautiful children then contact me for more info!

Logan

One of Logan's favorite things to do is go for walks at the duck pond. Course I don't mind because I find something new to photograph while I am there. Decided to use my 50mm f/1.8 lens that I hardly use to see if I was going to like using a fixed lens for portraits. Have to say it was not that bad and in the end got some really nice pictures. Here is a few from Logans 3 yr old session!

Logos

Most of us usually get a lot of our creative ideas in the wee hours of the night. That is usually the case for me. Over the past 6 months I have decided to try my hand at designing my own logos. It was partly due to the fact I could not afford to pay somebody to make one. So instead I set out to try to replicate a design that I usually liked. Or if I was bored and was stuck creatively on editing photos I would resort to making a new logo for my myspace, or web site ( which sometimes is often). Thought I would share a few that I have done recently. As you can tell by the list I do a few logos for friends as well.

If you would like a logo made contact me for further information.
