Yippeeeeee I bought a D700 Camera Today

I have been drooling over this full frame camera since it first came out months ago. Originally 3k -I couldn’t take the hit. They reduced the price drastically and I bought myself an early Christmas present. Now I own way too many camera’s (6 to be exact) I will most likely sell one of my D200 and possibly my D100 since I haven’t used it in years.
Can’t wait to get my hands on it!!!!!

Megan + Nick • November 8, 2008

Megan and Nick’s wedding was held in St. Petersburg at his parents condo. In fact, the condo used to be a club that Babe Ruth partied at. I had been looking forward to this wedding since I booked it a year ago. They were unbelievably wonderful to work with. Thanks for having me be a part of your day.

Our babysitter and her son at the Morton Arboretum

Our Christmas gift to our Babysitter was a portrait session of her and her son at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle. Julie has done a wonderful job with our son Reeve the past few months and while caring for him makes us amazing meals and helps keep the house clean.
About the session…..I couldn’t believe how tolerant they both were of the cold. William did an amazing job and held in there while we shot at multiple locations in the freezing cold!!! I know I would have been complaining if I had my coat off taking photos. Great job!!! I haven’t edited all the photos, but here are just a few.

Some are my husbands and some are my photos.
