a girl and her camera

my photography has been an outward manifestation of an inward journey. the journey to be seen fresh and anew as the rising sun of each day. glowing in brilliance, with the past behind me, and the excitement of a future unknown. we all long to be seen through the lens of another that won’t judge us, but accept us for the vision and beauty that we possess, right here, right now. with every image, we carry the power to make the ordinary extraordinary, and breathe new life into that which otherwise may be overlooked.


i thank God for the unique opportunity to change the world around me by showing you the world that i see. my vision is an instrument of change, memorializing the precious details in life for all times. just like every image has angles that abound, each different from the rest, so too do people have many sides to them, unique in their own right. may all of our eyes be open enough to also see their beauty.

A Double Portion of Joy!!!

I knew months ago when I talked to two close friends, Tammy and Barb (whose maternity pictures are in the August blog - Bellies Galore!), that they would possibly be delivering their babies in the same month, perhaps the same week - but as it turns out, they delivered 5 hours apart! Today I had the honor and privilege of being an Aunt to two new babies in my life!! Little baby boy Billy and baby girl Cora!!

Here are some pictures of Billy - isn't he sooo cute!!!! He already has a full head of hair - soo handsome. We haven't decided what he will call me yet- Aunt Leslie seems so formal - I'll keep thinking about it. I need to come up with something so we can start practicing! =)




And then there is sweet little Cora - finally a little girl in a family of all boys (besides mom). Little Cora will be joining the ranks of 3 older brothers - so she has a lot of covering and will be one tough girl as she grows up. And her mom has always hated shopping, and has lucked out with 3 boys, so I eagerly look forward to watching her shop for a little girl. =) I of course will tag along and offer my shopping expertise where needed.
Both mom's were in great spirits and I absolutely can't wait to make these two new blessings the object of my camera's obsession!! Ooh, I should introduce them to each other . . . I know, I know, slow down. LOL!

Enjoy! Leslie
