I am off to California! I am so pumped about this weekend - and I cannot wait to meet so many new people. It's going to be amazing.

Happy Valentine's Day to you
Okay, so I apologize for being such a bad blogger. I just have been so insanely busy. It's crazy. I just returned from a French Club trip to New York, and tomorrow I will be heading out to an awesome photography conference in Napa, CA with my buddies from OSP. I cannot wait. Trust me, there will be pictures soon. I know, I need to post a lot of things . . . I am so behind.
But for today, I just wanted to take a moment to wish each and every one of you a wonderful Valentine's Day. I am so excited to hear from some of you in the next few weeks as you celebrate your engagements! :)
I am so excited. I got to school this morning and on my desk was a box . . . from ProFlowers! I got 18 long stem, red roses, and they are GORGEOUS!!!! I feel so loved! :)
As always, I like to put a little something extra into the blog posts on holidays. For every couple that books from 2/14-2/28, you will receive a complimentary guestbook, designed by yours truly, from your engagement session (you must have an engagement session in your package to get this deal). How often do most people look at their guestbook of the standard variety, with this - you will have all your engagement pictures and all the special notes from people that were sharing in your special day! How cool is that.
So, how are you spending your special day? What did you get from your honey? Let me know!

Meredith and Josh: Engagement
Back in January, we spent a very cold Martin Luther King, Jr. Day with Meredith and Josh down on the Potomac for their engagement session. They are getting married in March and I am so excited for the opportunity to work with them. Josh is a Marine, and their wedding will be filled with many of the traditions that come from his line of work. It's going to be amazing.
So here are a few pictures from the day. Can you tell that it was about 30 degrees (if we were lucky)?
Can't wait for March!

What a day
Okay, so in the rush of getting ready for Allen and Heather's wedding, I totally forgot to grab my camera . . . so no pictures (and me getting all dressed up and girly with no way to document it . . . ). The ceremony was beautiful. Heather looked amazing in her dress, and they were obviously so happy. It was wonderful. So, we are tired and off to bed. Look for some albums to be posted soon. I am busy, busy working on getting them done from the fall weddings!

Tomorrow
Tomorrow I actually get to be a guest at a wedding. It doesn't happen much (well, in comparison to the weddings where I am working), so I will certainly be enjoying relaxing and having a good time. I love shooting weddings, but when you are shooting, you have to be so tuned into the flow of the day that you sometimes miss really feeling the joy of the celebration . . .
The wedding we are going to be attending is that of one of my closest friends from VA. Allen and I taught together, and then both being soccer coaches, became quick friends. Though we don't see him very often (he's moved jobs), I still consider him one of those to call in a bind type people. You know, your ICE list . . . Michael and I are so excited for him and Heather (his soon to be bride). He's just a great guy, and deserves to have the happiness that sharing your life with someone can bring! So yeah, bring on the sappy waterworks tomorrow . . . I am so silly.
All right, well, I plan to take a few pics, just for fun (maybe even with just the point and shoot). Gotta have some memories! :)
Happy weekend to you all!

Happy New Year!!
Happy 2008 everyone! I have to say, I am personally glad that 2007 is over and am looking forward to the new adventures that 2008 will bring. I love that the new year offers so much promise - new opportunities - new moments! I just love this feeling. So, to share some of my love with you all - here's a special New Year's offer! From today until January 31, 2008 - please enjoy 10% off all photography sessions that Toute Ma Vie Photography offers (yes, this includes weddings). Just mention this post to receive the discount (may not be combined with other offers).
Also, just a glimpse into our lives. A few years ago, Michael and I decided to put a new twist on New Year's resolutions. Do you ever get sick of making New Year's resolutions and then breaking them within the first month? Yeah, I am one of those people. Anyway, so we started to change our resolutions a bit. Two years ago, we gave up smoking (granted, neither of us is, or ever has been, a smoker). Last year we gave up Budweiser beer (I don't drink beer and Michael doesn't like Bud). This year . . . are you ready for this? We are giving up . . . ARMED ROBBERY! If you know us, you know we get a huge kick out of this every year! So, never fear, we will not be robbing you, or anyone you know . . . ha. I know, how silly are we?
Okay, so Happy New Year to you all! I cannot wait to share in your moments in 2008!
Look for a new slide show to be posted later on today! (or maybe tomorrow - it's getting late)

Merry Christmas
We are on the road! I am actually updating from my blackberry . . . I had to take a moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas! I feel so blessed to have been a part of your moments this year. So take a moment, tell someone that you love them . . . and know that you all have touched my life in more ways than you will ever know.
Also, I could use some good thoughts being sent my way. Earlier this week, I had a bit of an accident. I was carrying a box of presents and slipped and fell down the entire flight of stairs. I am okay overall - just some bruised ribs and a bruised ego. But we are in the middle of a 16 hour car ride - not very easy with painful ribs. So any good thoughts you could send would be great! We will return on 1/1 so any orders placed from now until then will be submitted when we return.
Have a wonderful holiday season! We wish you and your families tons of joyful moments and can't wait to hear what is happening in 2008!
