May Update

Spring is in full bloom here and I've been a busy bee!

I literally stepped off the plane from our trip to Disney World, threw some clothes in a bag and headed off to the yearly convention and competition with the Vermont Professional Photographers.

I was honored to win a Judge's Choice Award for a fox I photographed from my kitchen window this past winter! The special treat of the convention was the chance to hear Joe McNally, described by American Photo Magazine as "perhaps the most versatile photojournalist working today." He delighted us with many stories encountered when photographing for National Geographic, Life and Time magazines, Sports Illustrated, and many other publications, including also one of his most moving photo creations: Faces of Ground Zero--Giant Polaroid Collection.

A few days at home and I was off again to NYC to visit some fun photography pals (Robin and Barrie), meet two couples for engagement sessions, and have coffee with some potential clients (who we will be photographing a wedding for in September!) Yahoo! :-)

Okay, enough fun, I've got to get back to work!

p.s. I hope all of you fabulous moms out there had an extra special day on Sunday!
My kids gave me the sweetest hand-made cards, we ate yummy pancakes, I puttered in the garden, we saw Spider Man 3 and went out to dinner. The perfect day! :-)

The sky was sooo blue and the trees were sooo green!

Shopping on Madison Avenue with the girls. Isn't Robin looking so sassy?! Let's hang out again soon! xo
