blah, blah, blog

One from yesterday.......and I'll get around to posting more once I work my way through them and after I post the sessions before this one, lol
As, you can see I am now stamping my images thanks to a photo friend in Ottawa for reminding me to get on it and to Gerri for showing me how.
So, I do have 3 weddings to blog, 3 studio sessions and my trash the dress session that I think I'll get to tomorrow after I upload hockey prints to my lab. Oh, and anyone waiting for prints -- I'll have them on Friday.
Tomorrow I plan on catching up on emails, editing, blogging/blog stalking, but that all comes after I watch my son in his powerskating hour of goalie camp tomorrow. I should be in bed now as I'll be up early cooking him steak and wings to pack in his lunch. A hot lunch at a day of goalie camp sounds perfect to me.
I'm going to share two emails that are very cool and of course make me love my job even more then what I do. Both emails come from females with the same name and one is a regular here. Thanks to both of you for the emails! They have made my days!
Hello Jenna,
I just wanted to say that you have inspired me over the past couple of weeks as I have been watching your facebook updates.
This is the first time that I have been to your website and you have done a wonderful job. I have been doing some soul searching in my life, trying to sort out what it is that I am supposed to do...and all I have to say is that I hope that i can find a path as beautiful as yours. You have done a wonderful job Jenna....
Hey Jenna
I am so glad to have found your blog/website. I hope to
be as good as you are some day. I read your bio on your website
and have to say that I have much respect for you. I'm getting ready
to do my first real photo sessions this month (2 family portraits, a
maternity session, newborn session (for the same maternity gal). I
am so excited! I would LOVE to hear any tips or suggestions you
might have, as you have been doing professional photography for
a while and have so many clients. I've been photographing for a
long time, but have just started building it as my career on June 1st.
If there is anything you can pass on to a newbie I'd LOVE to hear it. :o)

Thanks Jenna. You're awesome!

So cute! Such a fun prop. :)

Christie said...

what an adorable baby. i LOVE the prop and the plants surrounding him. makes it look like he's trying to get a little privacy. lol

those emails must have made your day.

That's a very sweet image of the baby, I'm glad you're watermarking (lol I'm crazy about that, I stamp all my junky pictures), and those emails are so so sweet! You must have been so happy when you read them, and you totally deserve them. Also, your son is lucky to have a mom who cooks him steak and wings early in the morning.. I wish someone would do that for me (although I'd choose something like a salad wrap or pancakes lol)

Can't wait to see the new stuff.

What a cute shot! Is that your garden? And what great letters to receive. It's always wonderful to know that what one does isn't in vain.

Thanks everyone!

The baby photo was not taken at my place...I wish my yard looked like that, lol.

My internet is running super slow for some reason right now so I haven't got to posting the dress trash yet as I have a lot of photos to upload :) My model was great!

I'm so far behind in blogging....
