A little introduction..

After the birth of my children I became very interested in photography, I worked for a while in a studio (Olan Mills) I learned very quickly that working in a studio that was not my own wasn't for me. I didn't like the high prices, and the packages that include the same photo over and over in different sizes. So I decided to go in business for myself, I purchased my first camera and got to work. First photographing friends and family, and then spreading by word of mouth. I absolutely love my job as photographer. Job? I don't know if I can call it a job, I've never loved a job as much as I love photography, Its more like my passion! I've been into photography for almost 4 years now. I get excited every time I schedule a session, and there's always something new to learn. Last year I got the chance to work with another photographer in 2 different weddings and even photographed 2 by myself in the fall. I'm very excited that I've already scheduled 2 weddings for this year, the first in May and the second in August!

When trying to decide on a name for my blog, I thought about one of my favorite songs right now.. 'This is the stuff' by Francesca Battistelli. And it was perfect for my blog title.. This really is the stuff that means the most. However this also has another meaning to me! 'This is the Stuff' is truly my theme song. I am so forgetful and I really believe I have short term memory loss. The first paragraph of the song describes me saying this.


I lost my keys in the great unknown
And call me please 'Cuz I can't find my phone

This is the stuff that drives me crazy

This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use
