The ups and downs of life. I wish someone would have warned me. Right now I'm just trying to enjoy whats left of my summer in the midst of my sadness. I spend my days proofing and posting client galleries while trying to avoid the hurt i feel inside. But no one said this life would be easy. I am a reserved person when it comes to my feelings and friendship. I don't just let anyone in. And when I do, I still have a hard time putting my guard down. I guess thats because of experiences like these, when you never expect that the one person you trusted with your hopes and your fears would leave you in the cold. Wingless and broken. No warning, no apologies, nothing. But this too shall pass and I know things happen for a reason. I know that wrong choices can bring these types of outcomes. So I'm praying and hoping that I can make better choices in the future.

Word cannot express how sorry I am for my girl Ronalyn's loss. "I extend my friendship even further and I extend my arms if you just need to be held..."

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Romans 8:18

I want to share this special song with you that always reminds me of my dad...

Ok I'm going to do some back tracking. I made my mom and dad their very own albums for mother's and father's day. My mom loved hers and my sweet sensitive dad teared up. I really put my time into both of those gifts, I wanted them each to have something that incorporated their past and present along with how important they are to me and my siblings. Hope you like!!

Hello bloggers!! LOL. I am so tired and I don't know how I managed to get up so early today. Yesterday I think I used every bone in my body that I haven't used in a very long time. I've been taking dancing classes. Salsa on wedn. and Belly Dancing on fridays. And I am also practicing a hip-hop routine with some friends for my best friends 30th big bash!! So yeah, maybe thats why I'm so tired.

I need to get on the ball!!! There is so much that i haven't blogged about. I just need to learn how to in my very busy day. Like taking out five to ten minutes to blog each day. It is therapeutic you know. :0)

Ok first things first. what have i been listening to for the past week. This lady here is so sick (in the good sense of the word, lol.) Her voice is that old jazzy type. Let me stop trying to describe what I can't in words. Your gonna have to listen to her for yourself. Chrisette Michele

Oh yeah, i almost forgot. Swing by to my photography blog!!! Check out some of my prom pictures :)

i love America's Top Model. Not just the models, but the photography as well. I know I haven't posted in a while, but I have been very busy with BOTH jobs. :) Thank God for SPRING BREAK!! I have the girls with me this week for the famous DENYS CAMP. LOL So we decided to lift one of the AMTM's Sessions. Here is our ODE to that episode. :P

Here are a few of my recent shoots. I did a senior shoot, a model shoot, and portraits. I was so excited to come home and edit these. I had great subjects and they made it easier for me to capture their "essynce."
Right now I am filling some orders (thank GOd). I thank God for letting people call me that I have taken pictures of in the past to order prints. I have also updated my website, but i'm still working on the intro!!

I'm baaaaaack!!! Yes, Denys is back behind the lens (well in this pic i'm in front, lol). I have been doing some paid sessions and some practice ones to get back in the flow. I thank God for this outlet. It is truly my passion and my therapy at the same time. I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY!!
