Me-Just Chatting....

There are days when I think what I'm I doing??? Like yesterday.... answering 40+ emails, working 15 hours on pictures, running to do a 3 hour shoot than going to a school program, out to dinner to celebrate a friends birthday. My life is crazy and hard to find balance with being a wife-mom-business owner-daughter-friend. This morning I remember why I love this crazy life.....

You are amazing in every aspect of the word. I am so excited to get these pictures and show them to every last person that Mike and I know... and even some people we don't know that well. lol All of the pictures turned out amazing, and I have never been so thankful to have someone capture it all. Thanks to you, Tracy, I'll always remember our day and how it was the best day of (our) lives. I thank you (and Lee) from the bottom of my heart and you guys are people I hope to know a long time. I will definitely be coming back for future pictures. You guys are the best!!!! *Hannah*
Thank you so much, your kind words I needed more than you know today:) Hannah I look forward to hanging out with you and Mike this summer at the Drop Zone. You guys should totally give skydiving a try;)

Tracy,
I don't have but a sec to write. It's late and I need to get up really early in the morning to head back to Ohio for a wedding. I just wanted to let you know that I've posted some of my Jamaica pics on my blog. Thanks for telling me how to make them bigger. It makes a world of difference.
I just wanted to say thank you, again, for believing in me that I could do this. Even when I wasn't so sure that I was ready. You'll just never know how awesome that trip was for me. It gave me a new confidence that I haven't had before. The entire trip Bryan and I talked about how I was living my dream. And how good that felt. I could go on and on about it, but I really need to get to bed. Anyway, there aren't enough words to say how grateful I am..

Shell I am so proud of you! You did an amazing job girl! Good luck with your wedding this weekend. I'm off to photograph Steph and Nathan's reception. I know with her great taste it's going to be awsome! Tomorrow is an outside wedding so I'm praying for no rain!!!

Must share: taken in Jamica by my talented friend Shell!!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Hugs ~Tracy

Joetta & Justin's Slideshow

Perfect bly-sky wedding day....

The moment a walked into the parent's home I knew it was going to be a great day. Everyone was so warm and welcoming. We stayed there for awhile than headed over to a park where Joetta and Justin saw each other privately for the first time that day. Let me tell you it was beautiful! The sky was a blue as could be and there was just enough wind to make the veil extra fun;) Next they tell me they have a second location planned for pictures!!! At this point I think I've died and went to heaven! OK I could write a book about this day but I wont since I'm not a very good writer...lol.

We could not have asked for a better wedding, and they and their families welcomed us as they would close kin. We had a great time the whole day! Thank you, it was such a pleasure sharing this amazing day with you all.
Love,
Tracy

Slideshow coming shortly....
