The Sweetest Response

"Because I love you. Forever and always."

They Grow Up Too Fast

Last week, we celebrated my cousin Isaiah's 2nd birthday. At his party, I got this shot of the twins.

It seems like yesterday I was going to the hospital to hold them for the first time, weighing only 5 pounds each. Now look at them! Chubby as ever and growing up way to fast! :)

I know this is kind of bad of me to say, but I'm not positive which one is which. However, I've been told that Bekah is the chubbier out of the two. SO I think she is the one on the left. Which would make Abby the right. But don't take my word on that one. They are too alike for me to be able to tell.

The Best DJ Ever

It's always a hard thing to get everyone up and dancing.

For some reason, people just don't like to dance anymore.

So you have to be a really good DJ to get this many people up...

And he sure was.

Best DJ ever. :)

And I don't even know what his name was.

I'm back!

I know..I know..

It's been a really long time since I've blogged.

The fact is, the internet at my house is too slow for blogger, so it takes days to upload a few pictures.

But today, I am at school where the internet is fast.

And I want to show you one thing that I did this weekend.

This lady here took me and Rebecca home with her. Home to her is about 2.5 hours from me.

We had a wonderful weekend, but before we left on Sunday, we road the East Broad Top Railroad.

This shot here reminded me of the smokey mountains.

And this is Rebecca...I like the small reflection in the window.

And this is when I think to myself "Man..this would be great for a senior photoshoot."

It was a nice ride. And something fun to do before we left.

And I'm going to try to upload some of the portrait sessions, weddings and more than I've been working on real soon! Check out Lasting Memories Photography on Facebook!

iheartfaces photo challenge: beautiful eyes

When a friend of mine showed me this challenge, I had to do it.

I take so many pictures of people's eyes. But for some reason, none of those pictures popped into my head. It was this one.

This is one of the flower girls from one of the weddings I shot in June. She is one of the prettiest little people I have ever met. :)

Moving into the livingroom...

Last night, I came home from my internship to find Amy's bed in the living room.

I thought this was kind of odd...

Then I saw her room. It turns out she is painting it. So she moved into the living room.

So last night, I snuck out and got a few pictures of her in her new living space. :)

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 4

~*Day 4: A picture of your typical night*~

I became nervous when I saw this one. Because a typical night, is not really a typical night for me.

Some nights consist of school.

Some nights I am up editing photos.

Some nights I am in Maryland, breathing fresh mountain air.

Some nights I want to punch a hole through the wall.

Some nights I become so happy, I can't sleep.

There are a few consistent things that happen each night, so I'm going to try and show you those things.

First off, almost everything I do at night involves my computer(s).

I'm a Facebook junkie, so I'm always on there.

Sometimes I watch a movie on netflix. Right now, like I said in the previous post, I'm watching 24.

I usually edit my photos while watching netflix, or listening to music.

Photoshop CS5 is completely amazing. And I absolutely love it. That takes up a lot of my time at night.

Typically, at some point during the night, I get a facebook message saying "Do you want to skype?"

Of course, I say yes. :)

And here is a picture from one of my skype calls with a new friend of mine, Chris. 

 Or Chriscross, as I like to call him.

While we skype, I am either cleaning, or facebook chatting with some other people.

Depending on the day, I can have up to 7-8 chats going on while I am skyping. It's awesome.

Music is vital to living. So my iTunes list is always playing.

Sometimes, I will end up having some sort of deep conversation, usually about God, with someone.

It could be the result of being tired. But I thoroughly enjoy them all.

Then I say goodnight to the world, close my laptop, power off my mac monitors, shut out the light and attempt to fall asleep. And yes, sometimes that doesn't happen, and I just lay there staring at the clouds.
