The Bakery.....

A friend of mine runs a bakery and asked if I would do some product shots for the company website. He is really excited about his new 

Organic Donut Holes. 

It was quite the project and let's just say shooting donuts is not quite as fun as shooting people. (only because they don't talk to you) Soooooo,  I got creative and became friends with the pastries.....and to be honest with you I don't think I did that bad of a job....actually that's an understatement. I think I did a GREAT job!!!

But I'll let you form your own opinion............ Let me know if you find them appetizing....

Happy Friday!!

I Feel Blessed!!!!

Good Morning!  

I just want to take a moment to Exalt HIM this Morning publicly.  My God is more than Enough!! He Can supply all my NEEDS!  I am SOOOOO thankful to Him for all the Great People that surround me and encourage me.  I give Him the Glory!!! I Praise My Lord JESUS CHRIST!! 

I Believe He has complete control of my Life.

Since I was taught that a Blog is always better with an image.....check out the one below that I shot during the Unlimited Woman Event In NY.  

I guess I'm not the ONLY one that feels that way!

Have a Blessed Day =)

1 Corintians 13:4

Love is Patient...Love is Kind....Love is not Jealous or Proud.....

Love is ALSO beautiful! It Inspires me and it gives me Hope....

That is why,  it is always an Honor to help a couple capture some of thier most precious moments as they make that commitment of LOVE.

Here are a few of My Faves from The Special Day.

Congratulations Paige & Kiel!  May the Lord Bless you with a Strong & Loving Marriage.

 

A True Blessing in My Life.....

A true woman of God..she has taught me so much.  I feel unworthy when she asks me to teach her something. I have to give thanks first to God then to Monsi Quinones for introducing us some 10 years ago. I happened to be looking for a babysitter for my daughter. She lived a few minutes from where I worked. So, it all worked out. She not only took such great care of my baby but gave me coffee in the morning before work, entertained me for lunch when I stopped by to give my baby girl Hugs & Kisses and on occasion fed me dinner too!  She had me won over just with the coffee :) ok it wasn't the coffee ;) it was the care that she took with my baby.

It didn't end there, She made me feel part of her family, she taught me all about FAITH, Invited me to her Church, and I have been there ever since. The storms have come but I have been firm with her by my side the whole time. Even when She had to move away and come back and move away again, her Love for Me and My Family has not withered. I am eternally grateful to God for allowing me to be a part of her life.

So it was with great joy that I helped her start her very first blog. In the process I took her profile portrait. As a photographer I felt it was the most important thing to do. In the end.... I don't know?  Who is more proud of who? 

So it with great Pride that I introduce to you Rev. Maria A. Castaneda!

It is with Great Sadness....

It is with great sadness that I inform my friends...that 2 lives very dear to my family were lost. My husband's brother Jesus M. Negron and sister-in-law Julyann Rivera are no longer with us. They leave 4 children ages 14,12,10 & 8. We ask that you keep our families in your prayers as we find the strength to get through this difficult time

I find it hard to believe....My previous post was about him.    To see how joyous he looked.  This is a very difficult time...I pray that peace comes to the hearts of all of us involved...

A Special Moment

My brother in law has been visiting from FLorida.  On Saturday we set out to visit family and made plans to meet his oldest son and his new baby girl. She was tiny, soft and  just plain CUTE. 

As he picked up his granddaughter for the first time he was filled with pride.  The special moments they shared were priceless....I had the pleasure of capturing a few of them.  I was amazed at how she interacted with him as if she's always known him.  As I watched them through my lens I wondered what it would feel like to be a grandmother.....but very quickly decided that for ME those feelings could certainly wait.

God Is MY Provider.....

For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, He will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.    2 cor. 9:10

Yes, People I believe that God is the One who provides....

I may not be so sure about things like Photoshop & Actions.  Or I may struggle with myself about how to make an image just right. (I'm a bit of a perfectionist.) 

But the one thing I am sure of is that I depend on HIM & He Provides.

Have a Blessed Tuesday!
