I wanted to share how I accessorize my computer desktop. The kids posed for me as I was taking down my setup the last time I photographed my mom’s Havanese puppies. How thoughtful of them. They made it easy to pick just one picture for my July desktop.
By the way, I snagged this free desktop here. All I had to do was pop my picture behind it, size it down, and voila. 3 pretty faces to look at all month:)
Here’s another cute picture of my sweet posers.
Speaking of accessorizing, don’t you think this reptile just really works with the brown in Logan’s shirt? I truly had no idea he had such an eye for fashion.

A few weeks ago, I photographed the wedding vow renewal of my good friend and fellow photo corps member. As a gift to her and her husband, the photo corps all chipped in and I designed an album to commemorate the special day. It was my first album design, and the closest I have come to shooting a wedding (but a whole lot easier than a wedding, I imagine). Anyway, we presented it to her yesterday, so I can now share a few images of the album.

I was just playing here. These shots were totally unplanned. I had just photographed a wedding album I created, using the white foamboard as a backdrop (which she is sitting on in these images) and she started playing with the pink feather boa I had used the day before to entice playfulness out of some bengal kittens. I thought she looked cute and she asked for some pictures. I think they came out really cute! I played with some Pioneer Woman actions on these.
I couldn’t decide if I like color or black and white better here.
Uhhh, I think we’re done now *quietly puts camera away*.
4 year olds can be so opinionated!

These stunning Bengal kittens are 9 weeks old, and full of personality! We played for hours. Every single one of them was sacked out when they left:)
They are owned by Jim and Robin Molleur of Mesa Katz.

I just wanted to give a shout out to the place that makes the best cakes in Albuquerque. Some of you may remember my birthday cake that Jason got for me, to match my birthday present- my new D700:)
My niece just had her 12th birthday, and her funky stylish cake also came from Say It With Cake. It was delish too!

I just love the little fluffballs!!!
Can you tell I was using a yummy treat to try to get them to stay put? Grant was holding cheese up and this little piggie was begging for some. Ridiculously cute.

I always love our weekends out at the Wade Ranch. When you think of a ranch, you think horses and cattle, right? Well, let me tell you, it is so much more than that!
It’s lizard wrangling.
It’s snake chasing.
It’s friends, bonding.
Not just young, but grown-ups, too. (Please note blurred out friend is beautiful but would not want to appear in photos, blurring done out of respect for friend’s photo neurosis;))
It’s about getting back in the saddle. Yeah Max!!!
And taking a swim.
Stopping for a drink. (What’s that saying about leading a horse to water…?)
Sneaking a quick ride with daddy in the middle of a cattle drive.
Catching a lift home.
And loving it!!!
My young, small daughter actually rode several miles on dusty bumpy roads on top of this horse trailer, while I nervously snapped pictures of her from the back seat of the truck. What memories for these kids!
Stolen romantic moments.
Speed. On a horse. (See more of Zach’s pictures in the next post.)
I love this beautiful, dusty slice of heaven!
