Wedding Atttire

Good Morning my friends. I am listening to WBCL this morning where Lynne and Bekah of mid-morning are interviewing Manners expert Sheryl Eberly. They are discussing a number of ideas on how to teach kids good behavior.  However, the topic of wedding attire came up and I thought it would be good to hear from you on the issue. 

Please join my facebook discussion on this topic on the Amy's Photography, LLC page .  Be sure and join the group.  I'd love to see 1,000 members soon. I'll give something away to member # one thousand!  

I will put some of your thoughts on my Wedding Tip Tuesday excerpt tomorrow.  Be sure and chime in.

Have a blessed day!

Love to all,

Amy

Kirk and Amanda ... Engaged!

Oh you know I love a good engagement session!! Kirk and Amanda's was just that!  I know Kirk wasn't really that excited about it at first but here is the truth of it... MOST GUYS AREN'T.  There are very few who really get pumped about their photos.  But by the time we were done I'm pretty sure he realized it wasn't as bad as he anticipated.

Last Saturday morning we met for their session. It was originally scheduled for 2:00 but we needed to change the time... because of a surprise shower for Amanda that was scheduled at that time.  People trust me with information like this all of the time so I just go along with it. :)  Amanda even told me that she was going to a jewelry party later that day.  I knew that it wasn't really a jewelry party........... but played along.

We had a fun session....... the wind was CRAZY but such is the time of the year....... and we got a little muddy at some points because of our location but all of those elements were totally worth it.

Thank you Kirk and Amanda. I am looking forward to April 21st!  Thanks so much for the honor of being your wedding photographer. It really is just that... an honor!!

My favorites are on the left side of the blog in the engagement section.

Have a blessed day.

Love to all,

Dancing with the Arc Stars 2012

Drum-roll please........... it's a post that has been 6 days in the making!  Dancing with the Arc Stars is now in the history books. But I do hope that the memories will be kept alive by the photos of the evening.

Two years ago I sat in the audience of this event and couldn't stand the fact that there wasn't a photographer there to capture the night.  So.......... I hunted down the coordinator Valerie Magana to see if I could get involved. Thank you Valerie for saying yes and for allowing Amy's Photography to capture the night for you. I am honored to do what I can to help such a meaningful organization and am looking forward to the 2013 event.

I am surprised when I hear that people aren't familiar with Easter Seals. It is one of those organziations that I used to assume people know about...kind of like March of Dimes... you just 'know' what it is.  But as I've talked about this event over the last few weeks I realized that people aren't as familiar as I thought.  So what is Easter Seals?   Simply put it is an organization that provides services to adults and children (and their families) who have disabilties and special needs.  

Dancing with the Arc Stars is an event to raise funds for these services.  Dancers from the Arc are paired with local celebrity's and they dance in a competition similar to that on Dancing with the Stars. American Style Ballroom in Fort Wayne donates their time and to train each dancer so that they are primed and ready for the event each year.  The meet and greet for the event happens months before the event.  A LOT of time goes into making this night happen.

Be sure and look through the photos. They are on the left side of the blog.  Last Friday's event is shown as well as the meet and greet and a rehearsal in the folder below.  It was extremely hard to narrow down the photos for this post. If you would like to see all of the photos please email me at amysphoto8285@gmail.com and I will provide the website and password for you.

Have a blessed day everyone.

Love to all,

Arlan - Two Years Old

Whoa............ a 2 post day! :) I'm on a roll.  Not only am I'm blogging twice today I've been a pinning machine today.  Not only do I love Pinterest I love being able to re-create ideas that I've seen on the site. I will share later this week. :)  I think Toby was even impressed.

Now to the true reason of this post -my little buddy Arlan. He is truly the sweetest little man and so even keeled. I've been photographing him since he was a newborn.  Now he is 2 and about to be a big brother.  Arlan can grin BIG but sometimes when I see him around town and talk to him he has the most serious look on his face.  It's so cute.. I adore this guy.

My favorites are on the left side in the baby/children section.

Thanks Amanda and Carey!! You guys are greatly appreciated.

Have a blessed day.

Love to all,

Amy

 

Grant - 10 Months old

Good Morning to you.  This sweet little baby is almost one. He is one of those little guys that stole my heart on the first photo shoot.  His mommy, Morgan and I have had some fun chats during his sessions and will do anything we can to get a giggle or big grin out of Grant. It is probably comical to watch us!

I have a few favorites to share with you this morning. Baby section, left side of the blog. Enjoy the sneak peek!  He is so squeezable!

Have a blessed day my friends.

Love to all,

Amy
