Well, I had an amazing opportunity the other day. I was asked to take my good friends Sarah and Jaren's pregnancy announcement pics. I was rather excited when she asked. I was even more excited (and a bit nervous) taking the pictures, but with my little assistant Adaline, I calmed down and felt rather in my element. :) I am but an amateur photographer. Actually, photographer sounds a bit too professional for what I do. I'm just a photo hobbiest and while I feel it leaks through in the technicality of my photos, I'm still rather pleased with them; considering this was my first maternity shoot.

All in all, a very wonderful experience with Sarah and Jaren and I'm grateful they let me be apart of it. And, just one week later my best friend called with a surprise, another baby!! Yes, I've two friends who are going to have their babies at the same time! More pictures! I'm rather excited. For the baby too. :P ha ha, I'm just kidding. I am very exciting for all the new life coming into this world and what it will mean for the lives they touch! :)
