Happy Holidays!

Zoey

Welcome to our family Zoey.   We love you and you make all of our hearts warm.  May everyone have a special family holiday!

My 13 year old daughter is having fun with my Canon G9 that shoots in raw, in manual with 12 megapixels...sweet. She found this tree toad in the backyard in her treehouse. Maybe someday she will assist me at weddings. Have fun and be you....Joy.

High Octane Wedding with Curt Littlecot

My wonderful teacher Patrick VanDuesen gave me a paid 5 day workshop with Curt Littlecot at Florida School. It was a great opportunity for me to learn. We had models and were able to shoot for 5 days. We also were taught some new things on Nik software and CS3. He had us make our cameras naked with no additional flash and 50 mm lens. It was great and you can always learn something new.

My daughter Felonice graduates from college

My daughter is an award winning graphic artist for Stuart News and now she has the degree too! I'm so proud of you and thank you for helping me with my website and other design work you have helped me with. Your work is beautiful as you are! I love you, Mom

My four daughters...My family!!

Life is full of love and many wonderful things, but God really blessed me with 4 beautiful, smart and kind girls that are so much a part of my life. From left to right.... Michelle a RN Nurse and mother of my 3 grandchildren, Jade a (Mom to be in June) banker, Felonice a graphic artist and webdesigner (check out my website) and Joy who is 13, she loves art, photography and reading.

I took this picture in the studio for one of my assignments. Weddings and families are my main interest but this was alot of fun to do. I hope my daughter Michelle likes it!

Thomas Bruce Studio St Petersburg, FL

My class went on a field trip to learn about owning a studio. We visited Thomas Bruce Photography Studio and learned about running a business. It was fun and informative. I was very interested in his breast cancer photography and how they became involved with it. It touched my heart and made me think of my good friend I lost to breast cancer a few years ago. Her son and my older daughter are expecting their first child. I hope she can feel the love we all have for her even though she is no longer with us.
