Welcome Back Baby Everlyn

I absolutely love it when I get to photograph second, third, fourth, and even 5th babies in a family! I finished Everlyn's big brother's Baby Steps plan earlier this year. Each session was a joy as I played with Luis and visited with his parents. They are such a precious little family.

 Tuesday, I got a call that Miss Everlyn had arrived the day before and was ready to come meet me. On Thursday, at 4 days old, she made her modeling debut - and she was perfect!

Every baby that goes through the Baby Steps Plan paves the way for all of their younger brothers and sisters to get a free Baby  Steps Plan with my Welcome Back Baby policy

Continuing Education

I have always believed that continuing education is vital to the long-term success of any business. I certainly would not be here eighteen years later after receiving my first camera and photography lessons from my husband, if were not for the classes, seminars, conventions, and competitions offered by Arkansas Professional Photographers Association. 

Tomorrow, I will get to model, along with my dog Zeba for the super talented photographer Jen Hargrove from La Barge Wyoming.  Jen's program "Sit Stay Smile" will be focused on pet photography.  Zeba is super excited since she is pretty much a professional pet model anyway. I, on the other hand, am a little nervous to be in front of the camera instead of behind it!

I will post photos from our session in a later post!

Zeba the Super Model in her younger days!

My Favorite Fairies

 Yes, it's true - as much as I love all my Enchanted Fairies - I do have 2 favorites this year!  Maybe it is because I can see my precious nephew in his daughters. I love to here them laugh, and I love their imagination.
We had fun pretending to splash each other and look for fish in the water.

Apple Day

October 21st is APPLE DAY

 Apple Day is an annual celebration of apples and orchards, held in October. It is celebrated mainly in the United Kingdom. It traditionally falls on October 21, the date of the first such event in 1990, but events are held throughout the month.^[1] It is commonly a weekend event, usually taking place on the Saturday and Sunday closest to 30 October.^{[citation needed]}

Apple Day events can be large or small, from apple games in a garden to large village fairs with cookery demonstrations, games, apple identification, juice and cider, gardening advice, and the sale of many hundreds of apple varieties.

Baby Day May 2

Smiley, squishy, faces are perfect reasons to put Baby Day on the map. 

Although it’s difficult to pinpoint why, or where this day originated, we can easily speculate! Anyone who has ever yearned for, had, or known a baby, could list dozens of reasons why babies are special. Babies are not just cute, but they are innocent in a way that helps you to see goodness in the world. They give you hope, happiness, and make you strive to become a better person. What more could you ask for?
