Oh how they grow up so fast...

I ran across this picture today on my computer and I had to share..isn't he the cutest little guy ever! I am going to see him in 2 weeks and he is walking now and has grown into a little man which makes me a little sad :( So the next pictures I post of him he will look all grown up :( So I wanted to make sure to post this before he gets too big!! At least his mom (one of my bestest friends) is pregnant again :)

A beautiful site... A new world

So lately, if any of you didn't know already, I have been heading straight forward into the vast (and sometimes overwhelming) world of photography. I have been accompanying the great Mollie of Mollie Jane Photography and am loving all the new exciting adventures that it is bringing to my life. I went with her last saturday down to San Diego to shoot a lovely couple at the temple there. I got to use my new Canon 50D for the first time and was so excited :) I thought this picture was beautiful that I got from the temple.. and this is pretty much straight from my camera! Now if only I could get my new lens :)
