Beautiful day for a Party

I photographed an engagement party by the Sea on 6.14.14.  It was a gorgeous day.  What a great group of people the happy couple is very lucky to be so loved.  I am sure the Wedding Day will be fun.
Below are a few of the photos from the day.

Communion Photos for Gabrielle

Sneak peak at the communion photos I took for Gabrielle and her family 5.10.14.  She was so sweet and shy.  All she wanted to do was take her shoes off because her feet hurt.  Her sister in the yellow dress just does not like having her photos taken but I got a few good ones of her.

liberate your art - Blog Hop

I have been a part of Liberate Your Art since its beginning in 2011.  I had been following Kat's blog and when she posted that she wanted to start a postcard swap with other artist, I knew I had to be apart of it.
As it turns out I had just been diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2011, so sharing my photos with other artists and photographers would help me through my chemo treatment.
so this is year as I am trying to get my new normal life together.

My man stood by me during Breast Cancer

I count my blessings everyday not only because I am still here on this journey but because I have a man in my life who stood by me.
Greg and I have been through alot in our 23 yrs together. He had prostate cancer in 2008 and I was diagnosed with Breast cancer in 2011.
I was there for him during every doctor appointment, test, during surgery and I am still here.  So I was so happy he chose to stand by me through Breast Cancer when so many men leave their wives.  He may make me nuts sometimes with all the healthy eating tips but I know he does it because he wants me around.

the Chemo Port

2 1/2 yrs after having it put in, I had chemo port removed April 2, 2014.  Surgery always makes me nervous.  My surgeon snapped this photo of the port after taking it out and cleaning it up.   Yes I wanted to photograph it but the "happy juice" knocks me right out in OR!!  I am a light weight!!

Rock of Ages

I finally got to go see the Broadway show Rock of Ages thanks to my awesome sister in law Connie.  We took an early train into the city and started out looking for eggs in the big Easter egg hunt in NYC.  In total we found 26 and then went to grab lunch at Jekyll & Hyde.  I could have bought every skull in the place - lol - seriously!!!

Then it was time for Rock of Ages.  I was shaking I was so excited and almost forgot a friend had arranged a special surprise for me.  OMG was I surprised and happy, I got a goody bag with autographed program, poster, shot glass and a special sign for me with my name on it.
The show was AWESOME.   Connie and I laughed, sang and clapped - we had a rockin' good time.
