It's a Scorcher!!

Today is supposed to be the hottest day of the year. How do the weather men know this when July is coming up? I have a feeling there will be more hot days, but relish the summer as much as possible. Some part of me feels like I'm wasting my time not being on the river or lake on such a gorgeous day.

I would like to take this time to share with you several pictures I snapped at a worshop in May. It was the Mid-America Photography Symposium held in Eureka Springs . I learned a lot, wrote over ten pages of notes and guarenteed I was the youngest photographer there. (I must be getting a head start!) The most informative session was with Liddie Deshotel. She is from Dallas and an amaaaaaazing senior portrait photographer. Which by the way Chelsie's senior portraits are scheduled in a couple of weeks. I couldn't be more excited.

Here are a few of the workshop pictures.

In photography news I have booked a wedding on July 25 for my cousin, Andrea and her fiance Matt. They are getting married at her grandmother's house in northeast Arkansas (where I grew up). The setting will be cool to work with since it will take place during sunset and the house is a vintage cutie. Not sure what style of architecture but I know there is a specific name...hmm. She is having a large wedding and I am really happy for her. She is going to be drop. dead. gorgeous.

Also Alisha and Steve booked a wedding for late October during peak fall colors!!!! The two lovebirds are having their ceremony in Eureka Springs at the Thorncrown Chapel. I can't wait to be able to take their formals outside with the luscious Ozark setting. I'm super excited and and thankful to be such a big part of their day.
