VLV Photography

Good morning!!  I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!  I got to meet Krista & Nate who will be tying the knot this June in MT, and I have to add….they’ll be saying “I Do” by a cliff overlooking the river at sunset!  Sweet!  Their engagement session was so much fun but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow where I’ll share the details and some images from their session for their sneak peek!  On another note though, I saw Krista’s work {see her business feature for Kika Marika HERE} first-hand and I just have to say “GORGEOUS.”  The blankets are to die for and so custom with detailed stitching of either designs or words.  Her and her mother, Jan, do some very quality work.  If you are looking to give that special person a one-of-a-kind baby blanket with either an animal on it or even the child’s name and custom beautiful colors/patchwork-Kika Marika is your one-stop shop!  Here are some of the fabric patterns she has of the minky material, which is so super soft.  LOVED their workshop too…I was about to put a hitch on my hubby’s little nissan and pull it home to be my photography studio!  A girl can dream!

Also, since I THINK we officially have Spring in the forecast and Easter is upon us, I had to share these little cuties.  I had so much fun during this session too, as the location was on a ranch and they had these cute baby sheep.  This location was a dream for any photographer, so much to work with but these sure made me smile.  I even got to bottle-feed one-too cute!  

Yesterday it was snowing again and it was very much a hot chocolate kinda day.  It was funny though-to look out, see the snow, and then see some robins playing in the water.  I’m sure the robins are even wondering what the heck was going on!

I will be receiving a lot of goodies this week for client orders and I will be taking some pictures!  A beautiful canvas, custom image box with some mounted prints, and a few other goodies.  I will surely be making some clients smile this week!   I’m excited to see everything myself!

In other news, I will be getting out a Spring newsletter this month.  I haven’t gotten the whole subscribe thing worked out yet, as I’m having changes made to my site {hopefully soon} but if you would like to be put on the list, email me and let me know.  As of now, only those that have made a purchase from me as a client are receiving it.  I don’t do these regularly, just with the seasons, so you won’t be bombarded with them in your inbox.  You’ll want to get on the list for the fall newsletter though….just sayin’ as that’s the only way you’ll find out about something I have up my sleeve!

Oh, I came across this website recently and I just had to share.  My kids have their tasks they are to do-clear their plate from the table, put their own clothes away, brush teeth, etc. but as they get older they’ll be getting more chores {muh-wahhhh-evil laugh}.  I LOVE this website and plan to utilize it myself!  If you’re having a hard time getting your kids involved and doing what they’re suppose to and just simply hate pestering….this might help!  The best part-IT’S FREE!!! http://www.myjobchart.com/ 

Well folks, that’s all for this Monday.  Oh-availability for Saturdays this summer is getting slim.  If you’re wanting/needing a Saturday session, you might want to schedule asap!  I have one Saturday in June and three for August.  July is completely booked for Saturdays.  Thanks for reading and make it a great week!

Until next time….Live, Laugh, and Love the one you’re with because Spring is FINALLY in the air!
