Some great shots I am excited to post . . . this is another one of my beautiful sisters. Cindy is a screen writer living in Los Angeles, yet is she no stranger to this cold Utah weather. Much of my childhood and youth is filled with memories of entertainment in the form of story-telling, home movies, paper dolls, costumes galore . . . and Cindy always seemed to be the creative force behind it all. She keeps it going, channeling her talents into the amazing screenplays she creates. She has the ability to translate an idea into a cohesive story. Personally, I have a problem coming up with a decent ending for silly stories I make up for my kids at bedtime! So- here she is . . .

{Beautiful smile! Love ya, sis!}

{A little texture action going here. She was a trooper minus the furry coat! Brrrr!}

{right out of a magazine, right here, baby!}

{Stunning Beauty. Don’t make me choose my favorite shot!}

On a personal note. I have to say that this shoot was a bonding experience for Jessica and I. I admit we weren’t exactly the best of friends while growing up. She lives the single life in LA and I live the married, mom of 3, life in Utah. Yet, when it comes to photography, we have very similar tastes . . . and just the other day I think we realized this.

She’s got a killer voice- if you want to check out her music go here: Jessica Dimond . Love ya, Jess!

Just back from holiday travels and wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! 2008, can you believe it? I have a TON of photos to go through . . . 12 GB of them to be exact. I’ve got some really fun photos I am so anxious to share and will be doing that in the next little bit.

The photos I will be posting have particular interest for me, as they have been shot with my new baby . . . I am now the pr0oud owner of a CANON 5D!! This is THE camera, and we are instant friends. {Happy Christmas/ Anniversary/ New Year to me!}. Thanks to my DH for being supportive of my photography passion, as he endured a “vacation” spent working the new camera. He actually took the 5D out for an early morning stroll one day and came back with some great treasures. I love having a husband that shares my love for photography! I feel so excited about this year and the direction studiocharm is headed. I look forward to some great fun!
