Cute.  I feel in love with these three Westies.  Remember to get your furry loved ones photographed!  We have great packages for pet sessions!

Yol Ha Lagoon, AkumalHola!  Just returned from Akumal, Mexico!  We had a blast and I am all relaxed and ready to begin the busy spring and summer season of weddings, portraits and those crazy high school seniors. Speaking of crazy...this year is my 25th high school reunion--Orono Spartans--I think Oreo Martians is a better name but who asked me?  "Welcome to the Oreo Martians Class of '82 Reunion"!  Well, I digress.... 

SENIORS...and senoritas,

 It all leads up to the point that if you're graduating in 2008, you should start thinking about your graduation photo now.  Let me tell you...your graduation photo is REALLY important because it follows you your whole life long.  25 years from now, people will be looking at your graduation photo IN DETAIL and possibly even doing wierd things with it.  So it's important to get in with a good photographer who knows what they're doing...like me...so you look good.

There's 42  reasons to book your session early in the summer.  1) Specials--we got 'em, you want 'em.  40 extra wallets for June bookings FREE and 2) I get really busy in July and August and you're bound to end up with an appointment at like 5am which of course is when we ALL look our best.  3) it gets hot in July and August.  In summation, book early...so you look good.

We are a smaller studio and we truly care about your photos and you!  We tailor make your photo session to suit your preferences and we take the time to ensure that you love your photos.  So give us a call.  We'll talk, we'll consult, we'll schedule you in for a great time.  ihasta luego!

Camping trip to Ridgeway State Park near Ouray, CO.  Haven't camped in years...Camping offers a great growth opportunity--no running water or TV.  It forces you to relate to each other and to nature.  I feel like a super hero after I've done it!

Recently, I have been feeling a nice sense of satisfaction with my job...preserving memories for people.....

I lost my best-friend a year ago to a rapid disease.  She was only 7 years old.   OK, she was my dog, Morgan, a bright-eyed yellow lab who saw me through some of the roughest times of my life.  I was so devastated by the loss of my constant companion.....  It was similar to how I felt when my beloved Grandmother past away 12 years ago.  Even though she was my elder of some 70 years, I never felt more comfortable with anyone drinking a cold beer .  

With both of these dear loved ones, after they passed away, I felt this urgent desire to create memorials for them.  Being a photographer, I had plenty of photos to choose from...I felt so relieved that I had these images--remembrances of my loved ones...memorials to their lives and my connection to them...my love for them.... 

They taught me so much about life.  Seeing their images reminds me of what they wanted for me.  I feel very blessed that I had them in my life. They created situations for my learning and opportuinites for me to understand love and sacrifice. 

I know...kind of a downer...but thing is, oh man, you never know the paths life takes....

It doesn't matter which photographer you go with--we all know each other in Boulder/Denver and around--we network , help each other....  Just make an appointment and get your loved ones portraits created this summer.  It is something that you will never regret paying for.  Never.  I gaurantee it.  100% satisfaction gauranteed. 

Call your prefered photographer today.

You made my day!

Yesteday I received a wonderful thank you note from the mother of a recent bride.  It really made my day!  I hope you don't mind my sharing it, Nell.  Thank you for your heartfelt note!!!

"Dear Patti,

It is so satisfying when you envision a wedding and reception with the perfect photographer and your dream comes true.  Your professionalism and patience were more than we could have ever hoped for.  We sincerely appreciate the unique "eye" you brought to Kerry and Josh's wedding....

Our guests were impressed with your quiet nature, the unique and creative poses you presented, as were Dave and I.  I have had several requests for your business name and have happily provided it.... 

Thank you for making your part in it so extrodinary and another detail of the wedding perfect.  They have wonderful memories of of their special day and how everything happened just the way they dreamed that it would.  We could hardly miss with with such a beautiful location and know that you "captured" the ambience of the Red Lion in all of your photographs.  Adding your photographic portraits to this memory will only keep that day alive for all of us.   

Sincerely,  Lynell"

Update to the Boulder Bolder--my step-dad placed 3rd for his age group!  Way to go!!

Bolder Boulder 2006

Upon returning from Destin, we joined in the annual Bolder Boulder 10K.  My daughter, front and center, finished in under an hour.  And my step-dad, left, finished in 51:20.  At 67 years old, we are biting our nails to see if he finished in first place for his age group!  Michael and I had a difficult time keeping up with my 75 year old mom on the right. 

Whirlwind Week of Fun in the Sun!

I'm back from Destin, Florida located in the Panhandle area and I think I will open a satellite office there!  I love it!  We stayed at my sister's condo, the Beach House, which overlooks the emerald green coast of this area.  The ocean reminds me of the Caribbean--clear--you feel like you are floating in a crystal.  Here's some pics.  Enjoy and click here if you want more info on my sister's delightful 2 bed, 2 bath condo--beautifully and confortably appointed in the fun art and bright colors of Floridian life.
